chore: re-release Theme Expansion as v1.2.3

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.

+- Sidebar im neuen Look: fix 44 px breit, nur Icons, Tab-Name als Tooltip beim Hover, vertikale Akzent-Pill markiert den aktiven Tab
+- Top-Tabs bekommen eine Akzent-Underline statt Background-Fill am aktiven Tab
+- Pro Tab eigenes Icon wählbar in Einstellungen → Tabs (FontAwesome-Pool)
+- Auto-Tell-Tabs sind jetzt visuell unterscheidbar: jeder Tell-Partner bekommt ein eigenes Icon (envelope/star/heart/bell/bookmark/flag/fire) plus eigene Farbe aus 12-Farb-Palette — 84 Kombinationen, gleicher Partner ergibt konsistent dieselbe
+- Pulsierender roter Dot oben rechts am Sidebar-Icon zeigt ungelesene Nachrichten an. Sanft, 2-Sekunden-Cycle, deaktivierbar über `Configuration.ReduceMotion` (UI-Toggle in v1.3.0)
+- Bottom-Status-Bar (22 px) mit fünf Live-Slots: aktiver Channel + Color-Dot, Privacy-Badge, Tab/Message-Counter, Auto-Tell-Counter, Plugin-Version. Update 1×/Sek
+- Card-Rows als Default-Message-Render: Sender-Header in Channel-Farbe, Body neue Zeile, dezenter Trenner. `Compact Density`-Toggle in Aussehen schaltet zurück auf den Einzeiler
+- Bug-Fix: Settings speichern löscht den Chat-Verlauf nicht mehr. Refilter läuft jetzt nur wenn Filter-relevante Settings geändert wurden — Cosmetic-Änderungen lassen den Chat unverändert. Persistente und Auto-Tell-Tabs überleben beide
+- Bug-Fix: Hellion-Schrift (Exo 2) blockt die Schriftgröße nicht mehr — 4K-User können hochskalieren
+- Migration v14 → v15: alte Theme-Felder entfernt, alle anderen Settings bleiben
+
+Animation-Polish (Lerps, Theme-Crossfade, Quick-Picker) folgt in v1.3.0.

+subtitle: "Settings Cleanup"
+versionsnatur: "UX-Polish-Cycle"
+---
+- Settings-Übersicht thematisch re-sortiert: zusammenhängende Optionen wohnen jetzt zusammen, jede Card hat einen kurzen Untertitel — kein Raten mehr wo eine Setting steckt
+- Drei neue Cards: **Theme & Layout** (Theme-Picker, Fenster-Style, Zeitstempel-Style), **Schriften & Farben** (Schriftart, Schriftgröße, Chat-Farben pro Channel), **Daten-Verwaltung** (Aufbewahrung, Cleanup, Export, DB-Viewer, Advanced-Tools — vorher zwischen Datenschutz und Datenbank verteilt)
+- Datenschutz fokussiert sich jetzt auf eine Aufgabe: den Privacy-Filter
+- Der Auto-Tell-Tabs-History-Preload-Slider ist von Datenschutz nach Chat → Auto-Tell-Tabs umgezogen
+- KeybindMode wohnt jetzt unter Allgemein → Eingabe statt unter Sprache
+- Vier tote Schema-Felder entfernt (alle obsolet seit der Theme-Engine in v1.1.0): `Stilüberschreiben`-Toggle, `Stilname`-Auswahl, alter `WindowAlpha`-Slider, ungenutztes `ShowThemeQuickPicker`
+- Migration v15 → v16: alter `WindowAlpha`-Wert wird automatisch nach `Theme & Layout → Fenster-Style → Fenster-Transparenz` gemappt (nur wenn der Slider noch auf Default 0.85 stand, sonst gewinnt der User-Wert). Backup der Pre-v16-Config liegt unter `pluginConfigs/HellionChat.json.pre-v16-backup`. User die `Stilüberschreiben` aktiv hatten sehen einen einmaligen Hinweis-Toast
+- UX-Default-Bumps für Bestand-User mit Default-Werten: Card-Rows-Layout zurück auf Single-Line, NG+ standardmäßig hidden, gleiche Zeitstempel werden zusammengefasst, MaxLinesToRender auf konservativere 2500
+- Frische Installs starten mit dem Hellion-Brand-Chat-Color-Preset out-of-the-box (der First-Run-Wizard hat keine Preset-Wahl)
+- Hinweis zum Window-Transparenz-Slider in der Beschreibung: Dalamud's per-Window-Hamburger-Menü (oben rechts in der Titelleiste) bietet eigene Overrides für Deckkraft, Hintergrund-Blur, Anpinnen und Durchklick — die haben Vorrang über unseren Slider für das jeweilige Fenster
+
+Pure UX-Polish, keine neuen Features. Nächster Cycle (v1.3.0): Animation-Polish (Lerps, Theme-Crossfade, Quick-Picker) wie ursprünglich geplant.

+- Vier neue Built-in-Themes verlängern die Auswahl im Picker — keine Engine-Änderung, keine Settings angefasst, einfach mehr Farboptionen
+- **Night Blue** — Royal Blue auf tiefem Marineblau. Kühles Tech-Dashboard-Mood, bewusst neutral gehalten damit es sich nicht mit den Brand-Themes beißt
+- **Indigo Violet** — Royal Violet auf Deep Indigo mit Türkis-Mint-Counter für Aurora-Glitter-Stimmung. Schwester von Event Horizon, aber dunkler und dichter; der Türkis-Akzent hält die beiden klar auseinander
+- **Forge Merchantman** — Patina-Bronze auf Workshop-Slate mit warmem Bernstein-Counter. Hellion Forge bekommt ein eigenes Theme im Plugin selbst — Schwester von Hellion Arctic, aber grüner und wärmer statt kaltem Cyan
+- **Hellion Spectrum** — Farbenblind-sichere Channel-Farben (Deuteranopie/Protanopie) auf Basis der Wong/Okabe-Ito-Palette. Channel-Identität bleibt erhalten (Tell pink, Yell gelb, Shout orange, Party blau, FC grün); die Töne sind so gewählt dass jeder Channel auch unter Rot-Grün-Schwäche klar trennbar bleibt. Deckt rund 99 % aller CVD-Fälle ab
+- Kein Schema-Bump, keine Migration. Das Default-Theme bleibt **Hellion Arctic**, eigene Custom-Themes laufen unverändert weiter
+- Theme-Katalog wächst damit von fünf auf neun Built-ins
+
+Reines Theme-Pack zwischen v1.2.1 und dem nächsten Polish-Cycle. Eine Tritan-Variante (Spectrum für Blau-Gelb-Schwäche) kann später nachgeliefert werden, falls Bedarf kommt.

+# Code of Conduct
 
-HellionChat is a small hobby project. The contributor base is tiny and
-the moderation overhead I can afford is equally small, so this document
-is short and direct.
+## A Note on This Project
 
-## What I expect from contributors
+HellionChat is a one-person side project developed under Hellion Forge.
+I maintain this in my spare time, which means replies can take a few
+days. Please do not escalate just because a thread is quiet.
 
-- Be respectful in issues, pull requests, discussions and any other
-  project space (Discord, email).
-- Keep feedback focused on the code, the design or the documentation.
-  Critique the work, not the person.
-- Assume good intent. People come from different backgrounds, time
-  zones and skill levels. A clarifying question is almost always a
-  better first move than an accusation.
-- Stay on topic. This project is about a Dalamud chat plugin. Off-topic
-  arguments belong elsewhere.
-- Respect that I maintain this in my spare time. Replies can take a
-  few days. Please do not escalate just because a thread is quiet.
+When in doubt, assume good intent. Contributors come from different
+backgrounds, time zones and skill levels. A clarifying question is
+almost always a better first move than an accusation.
 
-## What is not welcome
+Please also keep discussions on topic. This project is about a Dalamud
+chat plugin. Off-topic arguments belong elsewhere.
 
-- Personal attacks, slurs, doxxing, sustained disruption of threads.
-- Unsolicited private contact after I have asked someone to stop.
-- Sharing of private conversations without consent.
-- Any content that would put other contributors or end users at risk.

-## Scope
+## Our Pledge
 
-This applies to every space the project owns or that I run on its
-behalf: the GitHub repository, GitHub Discussions, project-related
-Discord conversations and the maintainer email address listed in
-`SECURITY.md`.
+We pledge to make our community welcoming, safe, and equitable for all.
 
-It also applies when someone is identifiably representing the project
-in another space, for example posting as a HellionChat maintainer in
-the Dalamud Discord.
+We are committed to fostering an environment that respects and promotes
+the dignity, rights, and contributions of all individuals, regardless
+of characteristics including race, ethnicity, caste, color, age,
+physical characteristics, neurodiversity, disability, sex or gender,
+gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, language, philosophy
+or religion, national or social origin, socio-economic position, level
+of education, or other status. The same privileges of participation are
+extended to everyone who participates in good faith and in accordance
+with this Covenant.
+
+## Encouraged Behaviors
+
+While acknowledging differences in social norms, we all strive to meet
+our community's expectations for positive behavior. We also understand
+that our words and actions may be interpreted differently than we intend
+based on culture, background, or native language.
+
+With these considerations in mind, we agree to behave mindfully toward
+each other and act in ways that center our shared values, including:
+
+1. Respecting the **purpose of our community**, our activities, and our
+   ways of gathering.
+2. Engaging **kindly and honestly** with others.
+3. Respecting **different viewpoints** and experiences.
+4. **Taking responsibility** for our actions and contributions.
+5. Gracefully giving and accepting **constructive feedback**.
+6. Committing to **repairing harm** when it occurs.
+7. Behaving in other ways that promote and sustain the **well-being of
+   our community**.
+
+## Restricted Behaviors
+
+We agree to restrict the following behaviors in our community.
+Instances, threats, and promotion of these behaviors are violations of
+this Code of Conduct.
+
+1. **Harassment.** Violating explicitly expressed boundaries or engaging
+   in unnecessary personal attention after any clear request to stop.
+2. **Character attacks.** Making insulting, demeaning, or pejorative
+   comments directed at a community member or group of people.
+3. **Stereotyping or discrimination.** Characterizing anyone's
+   personality or behavior on the basis of immutable identities or
+   traits.
+4. **Sexualization.** Behaving in a way that would generally be
+   considered inappropriately intimate in the context or purpose of the
+   community.
+5. **Violating confidentiality.** Sharing or acting on someone's
+   personal or private information without their permission.
+6. **Endangerment.** Causing, encouraging, or threatening violence or
+   other harm toward any person or group.
+7. Behaving in other ways that **threaten the well-being** of our
+   community.

 changelog: |-
+  **Hellion Chat 1.2.3 — Theme Expansion**
+
+  Four new built-in themes round out the picker. No engine changes,
+  no settings touched — just more colour options.
+
+  - **Night Blue** — Royal Blue on deep marine. Cool tech-dashboard
+    mood, distinct from the brand themes.
+  - **Indigo Violet** — Royal Violet on deep indigo with a turquoise-
+    mint counter for an aurora glitter feel. Sister to Event Horizon
+    but darker and denser; the turquoise accent keeps the two
+    distinguishable.
+  - **Forge Merchantman** — Patina bronze on workshop slate, warm
+    amber counter. Hellion Forge given a theme of its own — sister
+    to Hellion Arctic but greener and warmer instead of cold cyan.
+  - **Hellion Spectrum** — Deuteran/Protan-safe channel colours
+    using Wong/Okabe-Ito palette tones. Channel identity (Tell pink,
+    Yell yellow, Shout orange, Party blue, FC green) is preserved;
+    tones are chosen so each channel stays distinguishable under
+    red-green colour vision deficiency. Covers the ~99% of CVD cases
+    that are red-green.
+
+  No schema bump, no migration. Default theme is unchanged (Hellion
+  Arctic). Existing custom themes keep working.
+
+  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
+
+  **Hellion Chat 1.2.1 — Settings Cleanup**
+
+  Re-sorted the settings menu so related options live together. Card names
+  now describe their contents in plain words — "Theme & Layout", "Fonts &
+  Colours", "Data Management" — and each card has a short subtitle so you
+  don't have to guess where a setting lives. No new features, just
+  housekeeping.
+
+  Card changes:
+
+  - Theme & Layout (new) collects the theme picker, window frame style
+    (title bar, sidebar, hide button, pop-out title bar) and the timestamp
+    style options.
+  - Fonts & Colours (new) is the new home for font choice, font size and
+    per-channel chat colours.
+  - Data Management (new) is everything you do with stored messages:
+    retention windows, cleanup, export, the database viewer and the
+    advanced shift-click tools. All previously scattered between Privacy
+    and Database.
+  - Privacy is now focused on one job: the privacy filter.
+  - Chat absorbs the Auto-Tell-Tabs history preload slider that used to
+    live under Privacy.
+  - General groups the keybind mode under Input where it belongs.
+
+  Cleanup:
+
+  - Removed legacy "Style override" option and the unused style-name field
+    — both made obsolete by the Themes system in 1.1.0.
+  - Removed the legacy WindowAlpha slider; if you had it set, the value is
+    automatically migrated to Theme & Layout → Window Style → Window
+    Transparency.
+  - Removed the unused ShowThemeQuickPicker schema field.
+
+  Migration v15 → v16:
+
+  - A backup of your previous config is written to
+    pluginConfigs/HellionChat.json.pre-v16-backup before the schema change,
+    in case you want to roll back manually.
+  - All other settings are preserved unchanged.
+  - One-time toast on first start if you previously had Style override
+    enabled — it explains the change. Users who never touched that setting
+    see no toast.
+
+  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
+
+  **Hellion Chat 1.2.0 — Layout Refresh**
+
+  Second UI cycle: tab layouts modernised in both modes, a new
+  bottom status bar, card-rows as default message render, and
+  Auto-Tell tabs that you can finally tell apart at a glance.
+
+  Sidebar (icon-only, fixed 44 px):
+
+  - Tab name on hover-tooltip, vertical accent pill on the
+    active tab, child background no longer paints the top
+    padding area.
+  - Per-tab custom icons via Settings → Tabs.
+  - Auto-Tell tabs: each partner gets a hashed icon (envelope/
+    star/heart/bell/bookmark/flag/fire) plus hashed color
+    (12-color palette) — 84 distinct combinations.
+  - Pulsing red dot in the top-right of any tab with unread
+    messages, subtle 2-second sine pulse, respects
+    Configuration.ReduceMotion.
+
+  Top tabs:
+
+  - Accent underline pill on the active tab instead of the old
+    background fill. Icon prefixes were attempted but reverted
+    — Dalamud's default font atlas has no FontAwesome glyphs.
+
+  Bottom status bar (22 px, 1×/sec cached):
+
+  - Active channel with color dot, Privacy-First badge, tab +
+    message counters, auto-tell counter (hidden at zero),
+    plugin version (right-aligned, muted).
+
+  Message rendering:
+
+  - Card rows by default — sender header in channel color, body
+    on its own line, subtle border between cards.
+  - Compact-Density toggle in Appearance returns the classic
+    single-line `[HH:mm] Sender: Text` layout.
+
+  Bug fixes from in-game testing:
+
+  - Settings save no longer wipes chat history. Refilter cycle
+    only runs when filter-relevant settings actually changed
+    (privacy, channel selection); cosmetic changes leave the
+    chat intact. Persistent and Auto-Tell tabs both survive.
+  - Hellion Schrift (Exo 2) no longer blocks font-size
+    adjustment — 4K users can scale up properly.
+  - Sidebar buttons align with the first message row, status
+    bar version slot is no longer clipped.
+
+  Migration v14 → v15: legacy theme fields removed
+  (HellionThemeEnabled, HellionThemeWindowOpacity). All other
+  settings preserved.
+
+  Polish (lerps, theme crossfade, header quick-picker) follows
+  in v1.3.0.
+
+  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

 ## TL;DR
 
-- All chat data the plugin stores stays on your machine, in your
-  Dalamud `pluginConfigs/HellionChat/` directory.
-- The plugin does not phone home. There is no telemetry, no analytics,
-  no crash reporter, no usage counter, no remote update check beyond

-- One outbound network call exists by design: the BetterTTV emote
-  service (for chat emotes). It is documented in detail below and

-- You can export every message the plugin has stored, in Markdown,

 ### 1. BetterTTV emote service (`api.betterttv.net`, `cdn.betterttv.net`)
 
-- **What it does:** When a chat message arrives that references a
-  BetterTTV emote, the plugin asks the BetterTTV API for the emote
-  metadata and downloads the image from the BetterTTV CDN to display
-  it inline.
-- **What is sent:** A standard HTTPS GET request. Your IP address
-  reaches BetterTTV (unavoidable for any HTTPS request); the request
-  itself contains no identifying user data, no character name, no
-  message text. Only the emote ID being looked up is in the URL path.

+- **What is sent:** A standard HTTPS GET request. Your IP address reaches BetterTTV (unavoidable for any HTTPS request); the request itself contains no identifying user data, no character name, no message text. Only the emote ID being looked up is in the URL path.
 - **When it triggers:**
-  - The emote *list* (global emotes plus the top-1500 community emotes
-    over fifteen API pages) is fetched from `api.betterttv.net` once
-    per session at plugin startup, provided the **Show emotes** option
-    is on. This first list-fetch happens before any chat message has
-    arrived; BetterTTV's edge therefore sees your IP as soon as the
-    plugin loads, not only after an emote is mentioned.
-  - The individual emote *images* on `cdn.betterttv.net` are fetched
-    on demand, only when an incoming chat message contains a token
-    matching one of the cached IDs. These are cached locally
-    (`emoteCache/`) and reused across sessions.
-- **Cached:** Yes, in `emoteCache/`. A given emote is downloaded once
-  per machine and reused.
-- **How to opt out:** Turn off the **Show emotes** option in
-  Settings → Chat. With it disabled, the emote cache does not load
-  and no requests to BetterTTV are made for the rest of the session.

+
+Hellion Chat ist ein Privacy-First-Plugin auf dem Chat-2-Fundament. Der größte Teil der Engine kommt aus Chat 2 (Message-Store, Channel-Logik, Hook-System), die meisten Tastenkürzel funktionieren weiterhin wie gewohnt. Was sich ändert: schärfere Privacy-Defaults von Haus aus, eigene Slash-Commands unter `/hellionchat`, kein Webinterface mehr, und mit v1.1.0 eine Theme-Engine als Schritt in Richtung eigenes UI-Look-and-Feel.
+
+Der Daten-Handling-Fokus liegt auf den DSGVO/EU-, US- und JP-Regelungen, soweit für ein Chat-Plugin praktisch umsetzbar: Speicherzeit pro Kanal, granulare Filter, Selbstauskunft per Export. Eine ausführliche Auflistung steht in [`PRIVACY.md`](PRIVACY.md).
 
 Eigenständiges Repository, EUPL-1.2-lizenziert. Mit v1.0.0 ist der Standalone-Cut abgeschlossen: eigener Namespace `HellionChat.*`, eigene IPC-Kanäle, eigene Source-Tree-Struktur. Distribution über Custom-Repo. Selektive Cherry-Picks von Upstream-Chat-2 nach Bedarf, dokumentiert in [`docs/UPSTREAM_SYNC.md`](docs/UPSTREAM_SYNC.md).

-Wer den Repo zum ersten Mal sieht, bemerkt schnell viele Releases und sehr viele Commits in kurzer Zeit. Beides ist eine bewusste Entscheidung, keine KI-Slop-Symptomatik: Vorarbeit vor dem Fork (Issues und Commits gelesen, Chat 2 ingame genutzt), eine sauber strukturierte Upstream-Codebase als Fundament, atomare Commits im Stil des Upstream und AI-gestütztes Review-Sparring, das ich nicht blind übernehme. Die volle Begründung steht in [`docs/LEARNING-JOURNEY.md`](docs/LEARNING-JOURNEY.md), Sektion "Wie ich so schnell release".

+## v1.2.3 — Theme Expansion (2026-05-06)
+
+### Added
+- Four new built-in themes:
+  - **Night Blue** — Royal Blue on deep marine, cool tech-dashboard mood
+  - **Indigo Violet** — Royal Violet on deep indigo with a turquoise-mint counter (aurora glitter feel)
+  - **Forge Merchantman** — Patina bronze on workshop slate with warm amber counter (Hellion Forge identity)
+  - **Hellion Spectrum** — Deuteran/Protan-safe channel colours using Wong/Okabe-Ito palette tones; channel identity (Tell pink, Yell yellow, Shout orange, Party blue, FC green) preserved while keeping every channel separable under red-green colour vision deficiency
+- Built-in theme catalogue grown from five to nine
+
+### Notes
+- No engine changes, no settings touched, no migration
+- Default theme unchanged (Hellion Arctic). Existing custom themes keep working.
+- Hellion Spectrum covers the ~99 % of CVD cases that are red-green; a Tritan-safe variant could follow in a later cycle if there is demand.
+
+---
+
+## v1.2.1 — Settings Cleanup (2026-05-06)
+
+### Changed
+- Settings cards re-sorted thematically: 9 cards remain, each card has one clear job and a one-line subtitle.
+- **Theme & Layout** (new) collects the theme picker, window frame style (title bar, sidebar, hide button, pop-out title bar) and the timestamp style options.
+- **Fonts & Colours** (new) houses font choice, font size and per-channel chat colours.
+- **Data Management** (new) collects retention windows, cleanup, export, the database viewer and the shift-click advanced tools.
+- **Privacy** is now focused on the privacy filter alone.
+- **Chat** absorbs the Auto-Tell-Tabs history-preload slider that used to live under Privacy.
+- **General** groups the keybind mode under Input.
+
+### Removed
+- Legacy "Style override" option and the unused style-name field — both obsolete since the v1.1.0 themes engine.
+- Legacy `WindowAlpha` slider — if you had it set, the value is auto-migrated to Theme & Layout → Window Style → Window Transparency.
+- Unused `ShowThemeQuickPicker` schema field.
+
+### Migration
+- v15 → v16 with backup at `pluginConfigs/HellionChat.json.pre-v16-backup`.
+- All other settings preserved unchanged.
+- One-time toast on first start if Style override was previously active.
+
+---
+
+## v1.2.0 — Layout Refresh (2026-05-05)
+
+### Added
+- Sidebar tab modernization: icon-only at fixed 44 px, tooltip on hover, vertical accent pill for active tab
+- Top tabs: accent underline pill replaces background fill on active tab
+- Per-tab custom icons in Settings → Tabs (15-glyph FontAwesome picker)
+- Bottom status bar (22 px): channel indicator, privacy badge, counters, tells, version — updates 1×/sec
+- Card rows as default message render: sender header in channel color, subtle border between cards
+- Compact-Density toggle in Appearance: switches back to single-line `[HH:mm] Sender: Text` layout
+- Auto-Tell tabs: per-partner hashed icon (7-glyph pool: envelope/star/heart/bell/bookmark/flag/fire) plus hashed color (12-color palette) — 84 distinct icon+color combinations
+- Unread indicator: pulsing red dot in the top-right corner of any sidebar tab icon with unread messages, 2-second sine-wave pulse, respects `Configuration.ReduceMotion`
+
+### Changed
+- Migration v14 → v15: deprecated Configuration fields `HellionThemeEnabled` and `HellionThemeWindowOpacity` removed
+- Appearance settings cleaned: legacy theme-engine bindings replaced by Themes tab (introduced in v1.1.0)

+### Fixed
+- Settings save no longer wipes chat history by default — the heavy `ClearAllTabs + FilterAllTabsAsync` cycle now only runs when a filter-relevant setting actually changed (Privacy filter, persisted channels, per-tab channel selection). Cosmetic changes keep the in-session chat intact
+- Identifier-based `MessageList` restore in `Configuration.UpdateFrom` plus TempTab skip in `ClearAllTabs`/`FilterAllTabs` ensure persistent tabs and Auto-Tell tabs both survive the save
+- Sidebar buttons now align vertically with the first message row (top padding mirrors the chat header toolbar height)
+- Sidebar child window no longer paints the top padding area with its frame background
+- Status bar version slot (`vX.Y.Z · Hellion`) no longer clips its rightmost character
+
+### Notes
+- Polish phase (animations, theme crossfade, header quick-picker) follows in v1.3.0
+- Top-Tab icon prefixes were considered but dropped: Dalamud's default font atlas does not include FontAwesome codepoints, so mixed-font in a single TabItem label renders as tofu. Underline pill alone is the v1.2.0 visual treatment for top tabs. Resolution would require Font-Atlas merge at FontManager level — out of scope.

-## One-time setup

+
+## A Word on Intent
+
+HellionChat is not trying to replace Chat 2. I build it for myself,
+and maybe for people who want the same things I do: a privacy-first
+chat plugin with tighter defaults and no remote-access surface. If
+that is not you, Chat 2 is the better choice and a well-maintained
+project.
+
+I am available to Infi if he ever has questions about HellionChat or
+how I have diverged from the upstream code. What I will not do is
+interfere with Chat 2's direction or push unsolicited opinions into
+his project.
+
+Long-term compatibility between Chat 2 and HellionChat is not
+guaranteed and, frankly, not technically possible. I am building a
+new UI from scratch and making deliberate architectural decisions that
+pull in a different direction. Some upstream patches will simply stop
+applying cleanly and that is expected.

-EUPL-1.2 and stays attributed.

+- They are written by hand. No AI-generated code goes to Infi's
+  project. He did not ask for Pair-level AI involvement and I will
+  not push that decision onto his codebase.
+- This is not guaranteed for every change, only where it makes sense
+  and where I am confident the fix is clean and self-contained.
