Removing BetterTTV took out the plugin's only outbound network call, and five
documents were still describing it as present. PRIVACY.md led with "one outbound
network call exists by design" -- the opposite of what shipped an hour ago, and
the one claim in that file people actually check.
PRIVACY.md now opens with none at all. The section that described the call is
kept and marked as removed rather than deleted, so the claim can be read against
what it replaced: the startup fetch meant BetterTTV saw an IP as soon as the
plugin loaded, whether an emote ever appeared or not. Worth leaving visible.
BetterTTV also comes out of the third-party table, which now lists only the two
parties nobody using this plugin through Dalamud can avoid.
SECURITY.md listed the EmoteCache HTTP client as in scope for reports. There is
nothing there to report on.
THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md named the call as current; both entries it has ever
carried are now historical.
README dropped the pointer to the outbound call and the switch for it, a
stability bullet about a crash fix in code that no longer exists, and the line in
the Chat 2 migration that moved an emote cache directory nothing reads.
ROADMAP gained 2.0.1 and 2.0.2, and a section for what the 2.0.0 push left
behind: 47 overlong comment blocks, channel names translated in only ten of the
25 languages, an orphaned EmoteCacheV1 directory on anyone who ran an older
build, and the deprecated GlobalScaleSafe call that is the last compiler warning
in the build.
BetterTTV emote support is removed rather than switched off. Its shared-emote
endpoint went behind authentication and that is where nearly all of them came
from; what was left is the 65-entry global set, eleven of those on the plugin's
own known-broken list, so 54 largely static images from Twitch's early days.
Exactly one is animated, and that one is 492 frames at 140x140 -- 37 MB of
texture memory for a single emote, uploaded one frame at a time. Not worth a
network call and an on-disk cache on every start.
Gone with it: the download path, the cache directory, the GIF renderer, the
settings section, the block list, and 13 translation keys across 50 resource
files. 1567 lines. The plugin now makes no outbound network calls at all, which
is the claim PRIVACY.md has always wanted to make without an asterisk.
EmotePayload and its MessagePack type byte stay, deliberately. Around a thousand
rows in a two-month-old database carry them, and dropping the type would make
those fail to deserialise -- the history is the one thing 2.0.0 promised not to
touch. Nothing writes one any more and a stored emote renders as the code that
was typed, which is what the sender saw when they typed it.
Five descriptions in the Window tab printed {0} where the plugin name belonged,
handed to the widget directly instead of through string.Format the way the rows
around them do. Every language was affected including English; German surfaced
it because the placeholder lands at the start of the sentence there. A test now
walks every placeholder-carrying resource string, finds its uses, and fails on
an unformatted one -- verified by putting the defect back and watching it go red.
New preview images. The old set was from 2026-05-08, older than every cycle in
2.0.0, and showed stacked ImGui defaults to anyone browsing the installer. Taken
with screenshot mode on so no character names reach a public repo. The wizard
takes the theme picker's slot.
It called the theme engine "a step toward a distinct UI look and feel", which
was true when it was written and stopped being true somewhere around the fourth
window rebuild. It also pointed new readers at `/hellionchat`, a command that
does not exist -- the family is `/hellion` -- and put the wizard at three
profiles when it has had four since May.
The intro says what the plugin is now: a fork by origin, with everything above
the message store rebuilt, and the differences from upstream named as features
rather than as a rewrite plan. The paragraph no longer repeats what the upstream
section further down already explains in more detail.
Added the plugin notice the wizard shows every user. The repo front page is the
other place someone lands first, and it was the only one of the two that said
nothing.
Counted the themes rather than trusting the number I was about to write: ten
built-in palettes, not seven.
Both remaining `/hellionchat` and "24 locales" mentions sit under headings that
say "kept for context" and describe the state at that version. Those stay wrong
on purpose.
Same-day hotfix on 2.0.0, nothing user-facing. It exists because the 2.0.0
archive was built before the MessagePack lift, and because the fixed release
workflow needs a tag to prove itself on -- 2.0.0 cannot, since Gitea reads the
workflow from the tagged tree and that tree still holds the broken version.
Not force-moving the 2.0.0 tag: its release object exists with the archive
attached, and someone may already have pulled it.
v1.6.0 through v1.15.0 were never published. The whole window layer was being
rewritten from ImGui defaults to custom drawing, and repo.json deliberately kept
its links on v1.5.6 so nobody could update into a half-finished state. That work
lands here in one release.
The config is not migrated, it is replaced. A config carried across nine cycles of
window rebuilds holds values chosen against surfaces that no longer exist, and
starting over is the only way to be sure every install is on the same defaults.
The message database is a separate file and is not touched. The old config is
copied to HellionChat.json.pre-2.0.0.bak first, so rolling back to 1.5.6 stays a
file copy rather than an evening of clicking settings back in.
Config schema 27. The reset runs from the constructor, before LoadAsync seeds the
default tabs, and the self-test now fails if the tab list is empty at /xlperf --
that ordering breaking would leave every user with no tabs and nothing else in the
plugin would notice.
Default layout gains an Emote tab: custom emotes, standard emotes and echo. A
tester asked for it, emotes get lost between system notices otherwise.
Manifest, README, roadmap and the four changelog consumers are on 2.0.0. The
release notes lead with what was fixed rather than what was redrawn -- retroactive
cleanup that could never be applied, a compaction that reported deleting nothing
while deleting everything, pinned tell tabs that came up empty for a session. And
with the one behaviour change users should know about: the channel grid is
authoritative over storage now, so anyone who had unticked channels while the
unknown-channel failsafe was on stores less than they did before.
The first pass through A6 caught the dead file paths and the two GDPR
sections. A review pass walked every remaining claim and found eight
more that no longer describe the plugin.
The privacy notice carries a "last reviewed" stamp and commits, in its
own text, to keeping it accurate for the version it describes. It still
said v1.1.0 after the block that rewrote two of its sections.
Both documents announced two outbound network calls in their opening
paragraphs. The Lodestone font download went away in v1.0.4 and the
notice explains that further down, so the summary contradicted its own
body. There is one call, and it is BetterTTV.
The emote cache is `EmoteCacheV1/`, which the notice states correctly in
one place and wrongly in two others, two lines above a line this cycle
had already touched.
The list of buttons that open a browser named a Ko-fi page that appears
nowhere in the source, an issue tracker and a website that have no
button, and left out the Discord invite and the two Honorific links that
do. In a section that exists precisely to enumerate where a click sends
you, both halves matter.
The README described the pop-out input bar as an opt-in under a settings
section that does not exist. Neither does the switch: PopOutInputEnabled
has no reader, the input bar is unconditional, and the field belongs on
the deletion list. Said plainly instead.
Also: the export narrows by age, not by a date range, in both documents;
the tab is called About, not Info, and it has no per-translator list;
the sections are Colours and Integrations.
Plus a note the users affected by it deserve: the v24 migration switches
the privacy filter off where it was on with nothing selected, and until
now that was only in the log.
Every claim in the user-facing docs, checked against what the plugin
actually does after A2 to A5.
The two GDPR sections in PRIVACY.md describe features that only exist
again as of this cycle, so they now name the screens they live on and
say what the cleanup does with a channel this build does not recognise.
The export sentence promised a date range; the form offers an age in
days.
PRIVACY.md also named "Show emotes" in Settings as the way to stop the
one outbound call the plugin makes. That switch has had no control since
May, and a documented opt-out that only exists in the JSON is not an
opt-out, so the toggle is back in the chat tab. Both its strings were
already translated.
Dead paths: the README source tree still listed a file deleted in May,
docs/IPC.md cited a window that no longer exists, the first-run wizard
pointed at the same removed file, and the theme authoring guide sent
readers to a Themes tab that is called Appearance.
The changelog lost two double blank lines that were failing markdownlint
and holding preflight red. Preflight is green again.
Historical documents keep their old paths on purpose: the changelog and
the AI disclosure describe what was true when they were written.
Bumps csproj, yaml, repo.json, CHANGELOG, ROADMAP and README in
lock-step to 1.5.4. Forge-post DE-body added with the Polish & Motion
versionsnatur. Slim-rule applied to the yaml and repo.json changelog
blocks (keeps v1.5.4 + v1.5.3 + v1.5.2 + v1.5.1, drops v1.5.0).
A csharpier reflow of two v1.5.4 source files (ChatLogWindow,
HellionStyle) is folded in. preflight.sh blocks A-F all green.
Plugin.cs:937 only pushed RegularFont when Config.FontsEnabled was true.
FontsAndColours.cs:50 forces FontsEnabled=false whenever UseHellionFont is
enabled (to hide the chooser UI), so the bundled-font path was silently
dead and the FFXIV Axis game-font took over. Exo 2 looked "almost right"
because it overlaps Axis on basic Latin, so the regression went unnoticed
for the entire v1.5.x series.
The fix routes RegularFont through draw whenever either FontsEnabled or
UseHellionFont is on. First-frame HITCH dropped from ~74 ms to ~20 ms
median (5-reload Linux/Wine sample 17.9-23.6 ms) as a side effect — the
v1.5.1 "too optimistic" defer-pattern hypothesis was actually a symptom
of this bug, not bad math.
Font-stack overhaul on top:
- Inter Light (Static 18pt-Light, 343 KB, SIL OFL 1.1) replaces Exo 2 as
the bundled font. Inter ships full Latin Extended-A/B, Greek polytonic
and Cyrillic Supplement coverage.
- NotoSansCjkRegular added as a third merge layer for Hangul,
Simplified-Chinese-specific Han glyphs, and CJK fallbacks the FFXIV
Japanese font does not ship.
- Two new ExtraGlyphRanges flags (LatinExtended, Greek) implemented via
AddChar pair lists in SetUpRanges.
- Settings.Apply auto-activates the matching ExtraGlyphRanges flag on
language change. Plugin.LoadAsync runs a one-shot migration that ORs
in the required flag for an already-selected language.
- ExtraGlyphRanges CollapsingHeader reachable regardless of
UseHellionFont (was hidden in the early-return branch).
- New WarningText below the language combo: FFXIV's chat engine only
fully supports EN/DE/FR/JA. Other scripts render in the HellionChat
UI but may garble in in-game chat input/send.
Localisation wave (originally a FR-only cycle):
- 24 selectable UI languages. LanguageOverride enum gains 10 new locales
plus 3 previously commented-out (Italian, Korean, Norwegian with ISO
code `nb` instead of `no`). All new values append to keep existing
user-config integer serialisation stable.
- Resource bundle split: HellionStrings.resx (24 locales, 328 keys) for
fork-added strings, Language.resx (24 locales, 456 keys) for the
ChatTwo-Crowdin-heritage. 4 post-sync Crowdin keys backfilled into
13 legacy locales with per-key AI-assisted comment marker.
- Em-dash sweep on EN source plus 18 translations. Russian and Ukrainian
keep their typographic norm.
Old HellionFont.ttf + HellionFont-OFL.txt removed; Inter-Light.ttf +
Inter-OFL.txt take their place. Configuration field UseHellionFont keeps
its name for backwards-compat. Migration v17 stays.
Bumps csproj Version, repo.json AssemblyVersion/TestingAssemblyVersion
plus the three DownloadLink* URLs, yaml + repo.json changelog blocks
(slim-rule: v1.5.2 + v1.5.1 + v1.5.0 + v1.4.10 retained, v1.4.9
trimmed to the Full history footer link), docs CHANGELOG long-form
block, ROADMAP v1.5.2 marked complete and v1.5.3 set as next cycle
(FR localisation with Hezcal native-speaker review), README status
strings plus moved pre-v1.5.2 history. Changelog includes the
in-cycle UI shrink + Fox-Banner-TreeNode smoke fix and the
WizardLastShownVersion re-show-once mechanism for existing users.
- csproj <Version> 1.5.0 to 1.5.1; <None Include="images\**"> now
excludes the source-only ASCII study folder so the deploy stays
clean
- yaml + repo.json changelog block prepended with the v1.5.1 entry,
v1.4.8 trimmed out per the slim rule (three to four versions in
the manifest cache, older history lives on the Gitea release page)
- repo.json AssemblyVersion + TestingAssemblyVersion bumped to
1.5.1.0, three DownloadLink* URLs point at v1.5.1
- docs/CHANGELOG and docs/ROADMAP gain the v1.5.1 entry; ROADMAP
Next-Cycle slot moves to v1.5.2 First-Run-Wizard rework
- README status sections updated, the previous v1.5.0 paragraph
kept under a "Project status (pre-v1.5.1, kept for context)"
heading
- Forge-post .github/forge-posts/v1.5.1.md added, DE body honest
about the HITCH-win miss
- yamllint config ignores the plugin manifest yaml because it
follows DalamudPackager's 4-space indent convention rather than
yamllint's default 2
Changelogs are honest about the cross-plugin HITCH target from
v1.5.0 not landing this cycle.
Pull in the refreshed linter and tooling configs (editorconfig,
gitignore, gitattributes, prettierignore, prettierrc, markdownlint,
yamllint, env.example, dotnet-tools) and run prettier and markdownlint
in --fix / --write mode across the repo so the existing tree matches
the new rules.
- prettier 2-space indent on yaml/yml and json overrides, asterisk
strong, underscore emphasis, proseWrap always
- markdownlint MD007 indent aligned to 2 and MD049 to underscore so
prettier output stays passing
- preflight Block F also ignores CLAUDE.md (gitignored personal file)
- prettierignore extended to keep HellionChat.yaml manifest and the
NuGet packages.lock.json out of the formatter
No semantic content changed; csharpier, build, full build-suite
(729/729) and the new prettier/markdownlint/yamllint checks all green.
Version strings bumped across all eight tracked surfaces:
- HellionChat/HellionChat.csproj <Version>1.5.0</Version>
- repo.json AssemblyVersion + TestingAssemblyVersion = 1.5.0.0
- repo.json three DownloadLink* URLs -> /v1.5.0/latest.zip
- repo.json Changelog field synced with yaml
- HellionChat/HellionChat.yaml new v1.5.0 changelog block on top; v1.4.7
drops out per the four-block slim rule
- docs/CHANGELOG.md v1.5.0 entry prepended
- docs/ROADMAP.md Next Cycle pointer moves to v1.5.1, v1.5.0
joins the released-cycle archive block
- README.md three status surfaces (badge, header,
Project Status long-form) on v1.5.0
- .github/forge-posts/v1.5.0.md Discord announcement body (German)
Preflight blocks A-F all green. Changelog embed total 2050 / 5500 chars
(four subblocks), forge-post frontmatter inside the 60/40 char caps.
Tag, push, merge are reserved for Flo.
Adds a "ChatTwo IPC compatibility layer" bullet across all six
release-note surfaces so the new behaviour from commits 8c4afaa and
655c903 is visible to users via the manifest installer, the Gitea
release page, the README project-status section, the changelog/roadmap
docs and the Forge-Discord announcement.
Files touched:
- HellionChat/HellionChat.yaml: bullet added inside the v1.4.9
changelog block, preserved order so the regression-tripwire line
still comes before the migration-stays line.
- repo.json: Changelog field kept synchronous (JSON-escaped newlines).
- README.md: project-status paragraph extended with a one-sentence
recap of the IPC mirror and the conflict-detection caveat.
- docs/CHANGELOG.md: bullet inserted between the profiling-logs and
migration-stays bullets, code-fenced gate names.
- docs/ROADMAP.md: v1.4.9-released section gets the same recap so the
cycle history stays self-describing.
- .github/forge-posts/v1.4.9.md: German-only bullet for the Discord
embed, slotted before the migration-v17 bullet. Char-cap holds —
preflight Block C reports the embed total well under 5500 chars.

Manifest version bump for the v1.4.9 release cut. Schema-required v16
stays unchanged (R1/R2/R3 are all config-neutral refactors).
Files touched:
- HellionChat/HellionChat.csproj: <Version> 1.4.8 -> 1.4.9
- HellionChat/Plugin.cs: schema-migration error string self-reference
(v1.4.8 -> v1.4.9, required schema v16 stays)
- repo.json: AssemblyVersion, TestingAssemblyVersion, 3x DownloadLink*
URLs all bumped to 1.4.9 / v1.4.9. Changelog field is still on v1.4.8;
the v1.4.9 block plus v1.4.5 slim-drop land in the next commit.
- README.md: shield badge, version header in lead paragraph, project-
status block rewritten for v1.4.9 (Plugin-Load Render Polish).
- docs/CHANGELOG.md: v1.4.9 block inserted above v1.4.8.
- docs/ROADMAP.md: v1.4.9 moved into the released-versions list,
"Next Cycle" header now targets v1.4.10 (Render Clipper + Symbol
Picker reserves carried over from the v1.4.9 plan).
yaml changelog block and repo.json Changelog field follow in the
docs commit so the slim-drop of v1.4.5 stays atomic with the v1.4.9
block insert.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- csproj <Version>, Plugin.cs schema-gate self-reference, repo.json
(AssemblyVersion, TestingAssemblyVersion, 3x DownloadLink URLs).
- README.md shield badge, version header, Project Status body.
- docs/CHANGELOG.md gains a v1.4.8 section above v1.4.7.
- docs/ROADMAP.md flips Next Cycle to v1.4.9 (Plugin-Load Render
Polish), v1.4.8 moves into the released history above v1.4.7.
- Config schema stays at v17, Migration v17 stays additive.
repo.json Changelog field and HellionChat.yaml changelog block plus
the new forge-posts/v1.4.8.md follow in a separate commit (slim-drop
of v1.4.4 happens there).
Crystal Nocturne (royal sapphire + electric magenta on obsidian, by
CRYSTALLITE) replaces Moonlit Bloom in the built-in roster. The same
chat-channel tinting convention applies: sapphire-blue identity on
party/team channels, accent-magenta on tells, and an alternating
mint/yellow/peach palette across the eight linkshell slots so each
LS stays individually distinguishable on the dark obsidian background.
Users who had Moonlit Bloom selected fall back to the default Hellion
Arctic on the first plugin load. A custom JSON copy of Moonlit Bloom
dropped into pluginConfigs/HellionChat/themes/ keeps working as a
user theme.
Plus a cosmetic re-sort of the registry: insertion order now drives a
deliberate Theme-Picker grid layout (3 columns) — blue family in row 1,
purple to magenta in row 2, green/warm/classic in row 3, Synthwave
Sunset alone in row 4 as a retro bonus.
CHANGELOG.md gets the full per-bullet block, ROADMAP.md gets the
released-cycle summary plus a v1.4.7 next-cycle placeholder, README
status section and version badge updated.
Whitespace and line-reflow drift from the markdown linter on the four
files touched by the versions-bump commit (forge-post, README,
CHANGELOG, ROADMAP). No content changes.
Manifest sync across csproj, yaml, repo.json, README, CHANGELOG,
ROADMAP and the Plugin.cs schema-gate error message. ROADMAP also gets
the v1.4.4 release block that was missed in that cycle's closure.
Forge-post v1.4.5.md follows the established frontmatter + DE-body
convention; the EN block is sourced from the yaml changelog by the
forge-announce workflow.
Pre-push grep-verification found four stale v1.4.3 mentions outside the
Slim-Rule history files:
- Plugin.cs schema-gate error message referenced v1.4.3 by name in both
the comment and the user-facing exception text. Schema stays at v16,
but the message now points at the current release
- README.md latest-release badge bumped to v1.4.4
- README.md version header bumped to v1.4.4
- README.md Project Status block rewritten for v1.4.4 with the threading
and IPC safety items as the lead
ROADMAP.md historical references to v1.4.3 are intentional (released-tag,
foundation-reference) and stay.
Add .prettierrc.json, .markdownlint.json, .yamllint.yaml, .gitattributes
Run CSharpier, Prettier and markdownlint across the entire codebase.
No logic changes — formatting, using order and line endings only.
Chat 2 has entered a major rework that Infi confirmed makes selective
patches no longer portable. The cherry-pick pipeline as a routine
workflow stops with the v1.4.x cycle. Documentation reflects the new
state across all touchpoints.
UPSTREAM_SYNC.md rewritten: replaces the "How I Cherry-Pick" /
"Reviewing What Is New Upstream" / "Conflict Handling" sections with
"Why Cherry-Picking Stopped", "What Closing the Pipeline Means in
Practice", "What Does Not Change", "What Could Re-Open Later".
Existing cherry-pick trails in the git history stay intact, EUPL-1.2
anchor lines and NOTICE.md remain canonical.
README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, ROADMAP.md, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md and
the PR template updated to match: cherry-pick references reframed as
historical or pointed at UPSTREAM_SYNC.md for the current state.
NOTICE.md keeps the BetterTTV cherry-pick example as a concrete past
case but adds a paragraph that the pipeline is closed and clarifies
the attribution standard is preserved unchanged.
PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md drops the "Upstream cherry-pick from Chat 2"
checkbox and the cherry-pick-path compatibility prompt. The upstream
git remote was already removed locally on 2026-05-08 (separate change,
not in this commit).
No source-file edits, no manifest version bump, no changelog entry —
this is documentation-only and ships with the next release.
Hab vergessen die repo.json wieder mit zu bumpen, deshalb hat
Dalamud den v1.2.2-Release nicht angenommen — komplette Manifest-
Bump-Checkliste diesmal durchgezogen: csproj, yaml-Description +
Changelog, repo.json (AssemblyVersion + TestingAssemblyVersion +
drei DownloadLink*-URLs + Description + Changelog), CHANGELOG.md,
ROADMAP.md, README.md, Forge-Post-Datei. Inhalt unverändert
gegenüber v1.2.2.
v1.0.2 tag was claimed before the DownloadLink fix shipped, so the
content moves to v1.0.3. No code changes — manifest, repo.json,
CHANGELOG and README version refs roll forward; DownloadLink* URLs
now point to v1.0.3/latest.zip.
Four small backlog items bundled:
- New: hide chat (and every other plugin window) while the New Game+
menu is open. Settings -> Window -> Frame, default off. Skips the
whole WindowSystem.Draw() pass while QuestRedo is visible, mirroring
the existing HideInLoadingScreens pattern.
- New: tint the channel selector button in the active channel colour.
Settings -> Appearance -> Colours, default on. Reuses the existing
inputColour computation (incl. ExtraChat override) and adds an
ImGuiCol.Button push around the selector. New ColourUtil helper
AdjustBrightness derives hover/active variants.
- Fix: PayloadHandler.InlineIcon hardcoded all hover icons to 32x32.
Replaced with float-based aspect-ratio-preserving shrink, single
scale-factor, zero-size guard, named MaxInlineIconSize constant.
Affects six call sites (status, item, achievement and other inline
hover paths).
- Diagnostic: HideState transitions log on Verbose level for both
ChatLogWindow and Popout.
Manifest bumped to 1.0.2 across csproj, yaml, repo.json. CHANGELOG
entry added, README version line updated. yaml + repo.json changelog
trimmed to the slim 4-version window (1.0.2, 1.0.1, 1.0.0, 0.6.1).
- Move AI_DISCLOSURE, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES, UPSTREAM_SYNC, ipc.md
into docs/ (ipc.md renamed to IPC.md for consistency)
- Add docs/ROADMAP.md, docs/CHANGELOG.md, docs/CONTRIBUTORS.md,
docs/LEARNING-JOURNEY.md
- Update README to reflect the v1.0.0 standalone state, drop the
development section, refresh the architecture tree, add a
release-cadence block linking to LEARNING-JOURNEY
- Fix stale ChatTwo/* source paths to HellionChat/* across docs
- Update cross-links in PRIVACY, CONTRIBUTING and .github/* so they
point at the new docs/ paths
Pure documentation pass, no code changes.
README, repo.json and HellionChat.yaml describe the plugin as a
chat-replacement based on Chat 2 rather than as a Chat-2 fork. License
attribution (NOTICE.md, COPYRIGHT, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md, README
credits section) is left untouched per EUPL-1.2 obligations.
Architecture section in README updated to reflect that the
HellionChat namespace is now consolidated (post-v1.0.0).
Closes the remaining gaps in GitHub's community-standards check, adds
explicit privacy and dependency documentation matching the plugin's
"DSGVO-by-design" claim, and removes the stale upstream Crowdin
artefact so the repo no longer suggests it ships its own translation
pipeline.
New community-health files:
- CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md: project-specific, short and direct, single
reporting path to kontakt@hellion-media.de
- CONTRIBUTING.md: scope, accepted vs declined contributions, build
and test instructions, EUPL-1.2 contribution terms, translation
policy split between Hellion-specific (here) and upstream strings
(Chat 2 repo)
- SUPPORT.md: routing for bugs, security, privacy and casual feedback
- .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md: summary, change-type checklist,
testing notes, compatibility notes for migrations and manifest
fields, contribution checklist
- .github/FUNDING.yml: comments-only file, no platforms enabled,
points donors at the upstream Chat 2 maintainers' Ko-fi pages
New privacy and compliance documentation:
- PRIVACY.md: what the plugin stores locally (config, SQLite,
EmoteCacheV1), retention defaults, the two outbound network calls
(BetterTTV API+CDN with ShowEmotes opt-out, Square Enix Lodestone
font once-off), explicit no-telemetry statement, GDPR
Art. 15/17/18/20/21 rights mapped to plugin features, third-party
privacy-policy links
- THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md: direct NuGet dependencies with versions
pinned to v0.5.4 (MessagePack, Microsoft.Data.Sqlite, morelinq,
Pidgin, SixLabors.ImageSharp under Six Labors Split License 1.0),
Dalamud SDK and .NET tooling, bundled Exo 2 font (OFL-1.1) and
plugin icon, network-touch status per component, re-audit commands
Crowdin cleanup:
- crowdin.yml deleted (was upstream Chat 2's project_id 663694,
pointed at /ChatTwo/Resources/Language.resx, never wired to
HellionChat strings)
- README, CONTRIBUTING and CODE_OF_CONDUCT no longer suggest
HellionChat operates a Crowdin project; remaining mentions are
explicitly framed as upstream Chat 2's workflow
Contact and version consistency:
- Maintainer email switched from maintainer@hellion-media.de to
kontakt@hellion-media.de in SECURITY.md and NOTICE.md
- README version references updated to 0.5.4 (header, project status
block) and the update-tag pattern generalised from v0.1.x to v0.X.Y
- bug_report.yml version placeholder bumped to 0.5.4
- Project-documents table added to README footer linking all health
and reference files in one place
Release-body automation:
- .github/workflows/release.yml now extracts the matching version
block from ChatTwo/HellionChat.yaml's changelog and combines it
with a static install / docs footer (custom-repo URL, project
document links, licence) before passing the result to
softprops/action-gh-release@v3 via body_path
- Workflow fails fast if no changelog block exists for the tagged
version, automating the existing "yaml + repo.json + release body
kept in sync" rule
- Tag value passed via env: TAG_NAME with strict ^v\d+\.\d+\.\d+$
validation before any string concatenation, so the tag input cannot
break out into shell evaluation
Seven badges covering build status, CodeQL scanning, license, latest
release, Dalamud API level, .NET version and FFXIV expansion. Quick
visual indicator that the plugin is healthy and which tooling
generation it targets, plus shortcut links to the workflow runs and
security findings.
LICENSE now starts with the EUPL-1.2 standard header so github-linguist
detects the licence correctly in the repo header. The dual-copyright
block (upstream ChatTwo authors plus Hellion Online Media) moves into a
new COPYRIGHT file referenced from the README. NOTICE.md and
UPSTREAM_SYNC.md stay as-is.
New files under .github:
- workflows/build.yml: validates every push to main and every PR
against the current Dalamud staging branch on a Windows runner
- workflows/release.yml: builds Release on every v* tag, locates the
