+- 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.

+- **Honorific-Custom-Titles im Chat-Header** — der Titel den du in Honorific gesetzt hast erscheint jetzt links über dem Message-Log mit der von dir gewählten Farbe, Auto-Hide wenn Honorific nicht installiert ist oder kein Custom-Titel aktiv ist
+- **Krone-Icon plus Tooltip** vor dem Titel-Text, damit klar ist woher der Slot kommt ohne dass der User raten muss
+- **Neuer Integrations-Settings-Tab** mit Status-Indikator (erkannt, nicht installiert, inkompatibel) und Toggle. Plus Vorschau-Block der die fünf weiteren geplanten Cycles ankündigt: Kontextmenü-Aktionen, Smart Notifications (NotificationMaster), RP-Status-Block (Moodles und LightlessClient), ExtraChat-Channels, Quick-DM-Button (XIVInstantMessenger)
+- **Maintainer-Attribution** im Tab als Höflichkeits-Geste, zwei Buttons zum Honorific-Repo und zum Caraxi-Profil. Plus Hellion-Forge-Discord-Button für Community-Vorschläge zu künftigen Integrationen
+- Keine Migration, keine Schema-Änderung. Wer Honorific eh schon nutzt sieht den Custom-Titel automatisch sobald HellionChat aktualisiert

+Erster Sub-Patch der v1.4.x Polish-Sweep-Serie. Sieben

+draufkommen.
+
+- **SQLite-Dispose** lehnt sich nicht mehr an GC-Druck zur

+- **Worker-Threads** (PendingMessage, RetentionSweep) sind
+  jetzt explizit IsBackground=true, das Plugin-Domain kann
+  sauber unloaden bei XIVLauncher-Reload ohne darauf zu warten
+- **EmoteCache-Loader** von async-void auf async-Task mit
+  shared Task-Tracker, drain-on-Dispose. Kein Schreib-Risiko
+  mehr auf disposed EmoteImages-Einträge nach Plugin-Reload
+- **DisposeAsync-Timeout** (10s) warnt jetzt laut statt silent
+  zu failen
+- **Plugin-Dispose** flushed pending DeferredSave bevor Services
+  abgebaut werden, Settings-Änderungen aus den letzten Frames
+  vor Disable überleben jetzt zuverlässig
+- **v13→v14 Config-Migration** liest pre-v13-Backup und überträgt
+  HellionThemeWindowOpacity in das neue WindowOpacity-Feld statt
+  auf 0.85 zurückzufallen
+
+Keine Schema-Bumps, keine User-sichtbaren Funktions-Änderungen
+außer dass Reload und Shutdown spürbar sauberer laufen.

+**Hellion Chat 1.4.1 — Theme Engine Performance**
+
+Zweiter Sub-Patch der v1.4.x Polish-Sweep-Serie. Heap-Pressure
+aus dem Theme-Engine-Render-Pfad eliminiert, Custom-Theme-
+Hot-Reload überlebt transiente File-Locks beim Editor-Save.
+Plus zehnter Built-In und überarbeitete Author-Credits.
+
+- **ABGR-Cache auf den Theme-Records.** Beim Theme-Register
+  (Built-In oder Custom) werden alle Color-Slots einmalig in
+  ABGR-Pack-Form vor-konvertiert. HellionStyle.PushGlobal
+  liest aus dem Cache statt pro Slot pro Frame durch
+  ColourUtil.RgbaToAbgr zu jagen. Real gemessene
+  Frame-Time-Recovery: **~13 %** in typischer Render-Szene
+  (Plan-Erwartung war 2-6 % konservativ, real ~10-15 %)
+- **Custom-Theme File-Lock-Härtung.** Wenn der User ein
+  Theme-JSON gerade speichert während HellionChat reloaden
+  will, fängt der Loader jetzt explizit Sharing-Violation
+  und Lock-Violation ab. Last-Known-Good-Snapshot bleibt im
+  Picker, beim nächsten Tick wird automatisch retry'd —
+  vorher fiel das Theme aus der Liste bis zum Plugin-Reload
+- **Defensive Cache-Refresh beim Theme-Switch.** Falls ein
+  Theme auf einem alten Pfad ohne Cache-Fill in den Speicher
+  gekommen ist, holt Switch() das beim Anwenden nach
+- **Synthwave Sunset als zehnter Built-In.** Hot Magenta +
+  Cyan auf Mitternachts-Violett, 80s-Neon-Grid-Vibes für
+  Late-Night-Raids
+- **Author-Credits konsolidiert.** Brand-Themes laufen jetzt
+  unter „Hellion Forge". Mint Grove und Forge Merchantman
+  werden Carla Beleandis als Community-Geste zugeschrieben.
+
+Keine Schema-Bumps, keine User-sichtbaren Funktions-
+Änderungen außer dass die Frames in Theme-getrieben
+rendernden Szenen merklich glatter laufen und ein neues
+Theme im Picker steht.

+**Hellion Chat 1.4.2 — ChatLog Frame-Hot-Path**
+
+Dritter Sub-Patch der v1.4.x Polish-Sweep-Serie. Drei
+Per-Frame-Allokations-Quellen aus dem ChatLogWindow-Render-
+Pfad und der Settings-StatusBar eliminiert.
+
+- **Card-Mode-Border-Loop entlastet.** DrawMessages hebt
+  Theme, DrawList, Window-Left, Window-Right und die ABGR-
+  Border-Color einmalig vor den Per-Message-Loop. Bei 100
+  sichtbaren Messages sind das gut 500 redundante P/Invokes
+  und Property-Reads, die der Hoist eliminiert. Pop-Out-
+  Heavy-Setups (mehrere parallele Chat-Windows) profitieren
+  proportional, weil der Hoist pro DrawMessages-Call greift,
+  also pro Window
+- **Auto-Tell Tab-Tint und Icon gecached.** Die Hash-Color-
+  Berechnung für Auto-Tell-Tabs lief pro Tab pro Frame, mit
+  zwei String-Allokationen pro Tab (eine für Tint-Hash, eine
+  für Icon-Hash). Der neue TabTintCache liest pre-computed
+  Werte aus dem Tab und rechnet nur neu wenn das Tell-Target
+  drifted. Beide Caches haben separate Validation-Keys, also
+  keine Cross-Invalidation zwischen Tint- und Icon-Pfad.
+  AutoTellTabTint selbst bleibt pure Hash-Helper, weiterhin
+  ohne Tab-Awareness
+- **StatusBar-Aggregation hinter Cache-Gate.** Die Status-
+  Leiste am unteren Window-Rand summiert die Tab-Message-
+  Counts und zählt die Auto-Tell-Tabs pro Frame. Der Cache-
+  Gate (1 Sekunde) lag bisher hinter den LINQ-Pfaden, also
+  liefen Sum und Count trotzdem pro Frame. Jetzt vor dem
+  Gate, plus die LINQ-Pfade durch eine Single-Pass-Foreach
+  ersetzt. Die Aggregation läuft auf etwa 1 % der Frames
+
+Realistische Frame-Time-Recovery: 2-5 % in typischen Szenen,
+Pop-Out-Heavy-Setups potenziell mehr durch die Card-Border-
+Multiplikation pro Window.
+
+Keine Schema-Bumps, keine User-sichtbaren Funktions-
+Änderungen außer dass die Frames im Chat-Log und in der
+Settings-Statusleiste merklich glatter laufen.

+  v1.4.1 — Theme Engine Performance plus a tenth built-in.
+  HellionStyle.PushGlobal reads pre-computed ABGR values from a
+  per-theme cache instead of converting RGBA per slot per frame
+  (~13 % render-time recovery in typical scenes). Custom-theme
+  hot-reload survives transient file locks (editor mid-save
+  keeps the last-known-good snapshot). Synthwave Sunset joins
+  as the tenth built-in theme — Hot Magenta + Cyan on midnight
+  violet, 80s neon-grid vibes.
+
+  v1.4.2 — ChatLog Frame-Hot-Path. Three per-frame allocation
+  patterns gone from the chat-log render path: card-mode borders
+  hoist invariants out of the per-message loop, auto-tell tab
+  tint and icon get a per-tab cache, and the status bar gates
+  its tab aggregation behind the same one-second cache it uses
+  for the format strings.

+  **Hellion Chat 1.4.2 — ChatLog Frame-Hot-Path**
 
-  Second UI cycle: tab layouts modernised in both modes, a new
+  Third sub-patch of the v1.4.x Polish Sweep series. Per-frame
-  bottom status bar, card-rows as default message render, and
+  allocations from the chat-log render path eliminated.
-  Auto-Tell tabs that you can finally tell apart at a glance.
 
-  Sidebar (icon-only, fixed 44 px):
+  - DrawMessages card-mode hoists theme/drawList/winLeft/winRight/
+    borderColorAbgr out of the per-message loop. About 500
+    redundant calls per frame at 100 visible messages, multiplied
+    by every pop-out window
+  - Auto-tell tab tint and icon use a per-tab cache. Hash
+    computation and string allocation only happen when the tell
+    target name or world drifts. AutoTellTabTint stays a pure
+    hash helper; cache lives in a thin TabTintCache wrapper
+  - Status bar gates its tab aggregation behind the same
+    one-second cache it already used for the format strings.
+    LINQ Sum and Count replaced with a single foreach pass
+    that runs on roughly 1% of frames
 
-  - Tab name on hover-tooltip, vertical accent pill on the

-    active tab, child background no longer paints the top
+  on pop-out-heavy setups because the card-border hoist scales
-    padding area.
+  per window.
-  - 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).
-
-  **Hellion Chat 1.1.0 — Theme Foundation**
-
-  First major UI cycle after the standalone v1.0.0 cut. Theme engine,
-  five built-in themes, customisable JSON themes, modernised settings
-  layout.
-
-  New themes (Settings → Themes):
-
-  - **Hellion Arctic** — the brand default, Arctic Cyan + Ember Glow
-    on industrial slate.
-  - **Chat 2 Klassik** — Steel Blue on neutral grey, eckige Kanten.
-    The upstream Chat 2 look on the new engine.
-  - **Event Horizon** — Cosmic Purple on near-black. Deep-space mood.
-  - **Moonlit Bloom** — Bloom Magenta + Soft Sage on deep-violet
-    night.
-  - **Mint Grove** — Mint Green + Honey Amber on deep forest. First
-    member of the Grove family.
-
-  Theme engine highlights:
-
-  - Slug-based selection in Settings → Themes with mini-mockup
-    previews per theme.
-  - Click a theme card and the whole plugin (chat, settings,
-    pop-outs, viewer) repaints instantly.
-  - Custom themes via JSON in pluginConfigs/HellionChat/themes/.
-    Example template seeded on first launch.
-  - Optional per-theme chat-channel colours. When a theme proposes
-    its own chat colours and yours differ, a dezent banner offers
-    Apply / Keep — never auto-overwriting.
-  - Migration v13 → v14: existing users land on Hellion Arctic. Pick
-    Chat 2 Klassik to keep the upstream look.
-
-  Settings layout:
-
-  - New card-grid overview on Settings open. Click a card to drill
-    into the section.
-  - Breadcrumb back to overview, ESC also returns.
-  - Detail view drops the redundant tab list — section content uses
-    the full width.
-
-  Branding:
-
-  - Plugin icon swapped from the ChatTwo derivative to the Hellion
-    Forge hammer.
-  - New docs/THEME-AUTHORING.md walks you through writing your own
-    themes with the Forge logo on top.
-
-  Technical:
-
-  - HellionStyle.PushGlobal is now theme-driven. Configuration.
-    HellionThemeEnabled is deprecated and will be removed in v1.2.0.
-  - New ThemeRegistry singleton with LastWriteTime-cached custom-
-    theme loader.
-  - 51 local unit tests cover the data model, registry, JSON round-
-    trip and built-in sanity checks.
-
-  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
-
-  **Hellion Chat 1.0.3 — Polish patch**
-
-  - New: optionally hide chat (and every other plugin window) while the
-    New Game+ menu is open. Toggle in Settings → Window → Frame, default
-    off. Closing the menu restores all windows.
-  - New: optionally tint the channel selector button next to the input
-    field with the currently active channel's colour. Toggle in
-    Settings → Appearance → Colours, default on. Matches the existing
-    input-text tint and respects ExtraChat overrides.
-  - Fix: status, item and other inline hover icons keep their original
-    aspect ratio. Debuff icons with non-square dimensions are no longer
-    visually squished into a 32×32 box.
-  - Diagnostic: hide-state transitions (battle, cutscene, user-hide,
-    cutscene override) are now logged on Verbose level for easier bug
-    reports — off by default, enable with `/xllog set HellionChat verbose`.
-
-  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
-
-  **Hellion Chat 1.0.1 — Window Position Recovery**
-
-  - Automatic bounds check on the first draw after plugin load.
-    When the persisted window position has no overlap with the
-    primary viewport, the window snaps to a safe top-left default.
-    Helpful after a monitor disconnect, resolution change or
-    multi-monitor layout switch between sessions.
-  - New "Reset Window Position" button in Settings → Window → Frame
-    as a manual escape hatch for edge cases the automatic check
-    doesn't catch.
-
-  Tested on Linux/Wayland with a hard-cut three-monitor reduction;
-  window recovers cleanly without manual JSON editing.
-
-  Housekeeping carried over since v1.0.0:
-
-  - Documentation restructured into docs/ folder. New CHANGELOG,
-    CONTRIBUTORS, LEARNING-JOURNEY and ROADMAP added
-  - Stale ChatTwo/* paths in repo configs updated to HellionChat/*
-  - Pidgin parser library bumped from 3.3.0 to 3.5.1 (CIString
-    Unicode fix relevant for non-ASCII channel/tab names)
-  - GitHub Actions: actions/setup-dotnet bumped 4 → 5,
-    github/codeql-action bumped 3 → 4
-
-  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
-
-  **Hellion Chat 1.0.0 — Standalone Major Release**
-
-  First fully standalone release. Internal cleanup plus a sweep of
-  pre-existing correctness, security, threading and resource-leak
-  fixes carried over from the upstream codebase. No user action
-  required — auto-update applies cleanly, configuration and database
-  paths unchanged.
-
-  Standalone identity:
-
-  - Code namespace consolidated from ChatTwo.* to HellionChat.* across
-    all source files
-  - IPC channels migrated from ChatTwo.* to HellionChat.* (6 channels:
-    Register, Available, Unregister, Invoke, GetChatInputState,
-    ChatInputStateChanged) — third-party plugins that bound to the old
-    channels need to be updated; none known at release time
-  - ImGui popup ID renamed to hellionchat-context-popup
-  - Repository folder restructured (ChatTwo/ → HellionChat/), all CI
-    and build paths updated accordingly
-  - Public-facing descriptions reworded from upstream-fork framing to
-    standalone framing (Chat 2 attribution preserved per EUPL-1.2)
-  - Colour preset 'ChatTwo Default' is now 'Klassik (Chat 2 Default)'
-
-  Safety:
-
-  - Plugin now refuses to load when upstream Chat 2 is also active —
-    bilingual conflict message in EN/DE, throw before any subsystem
-    initialization, prevents the runtime crash that previously occurred
-    when both plugins replaced the same chat window in parallel
-  - SQLite native binary bumped to 3.50.3 (CVE-2025-6965 memory
-    corruption from aggregate-term overflow, CVE-2025-7709)
-  - NuGet restore now honors packages.lock.json so transitive
-    dependencies don't drift between machines or CI runs
-
-  Default tab layout sharpened (one-time tab reset on first start):
-
-  The first-run tab layout is reorganized into five thematic tabs
-  based on external tester feedback. General contains only Say,
-  Yell and Shout (immediate-surroundings public chat). System
-  absorbs the gameplay-event streams (NpcDialogue, Loot, Crafting,
-  Gathering, PF recruitment pings) and announcement noise
-  (BattleSystem, FreeCompanyAnnouncement, PvpTeamAnnouncement)
-  that previously lived in General. FreeCompany, Group and
-  Linkshell each own their channel set. The static Tell tab is
-  gone — Auto-Tell-Tabs spawns per-conversation tabs on demand.
-  The Beginner / Novice-Network preset is no longer added by
-  default but is still available via Settings, Tabs.
-
-  This is a one-time tab-layout reset for users on config version
-  12 or older. Privacy, Retention, Theme and every other setting
-  is preserved. Your previous tab configuration is written to
-  pluginConfigs/HellionChat.json.pre-v13-backup so you can restore
-  it manually if you prefer the old layout.
-
-  Crash-class fixes (formerly latent in upstream):
-
-  - MathUtil.HasOverlap now uses a correct AABB test; identical or
-    edge-touching rectangles are no longer reported as non-overlapping
-  - ChatCode.Equals compares fields directly instead of GetHashCode;
-    removes the hash-collision anti-pattern
-  - IpcManager.Dispose uses UnregisterAction to match the matching
-    RegisterAction call; previous mismatch leaked the action
-    subscription on every plugin reload
-  - ExtraChat.Dispose now unsubscribes all three IPC subscriptions
-    (was only the first); leaks closed
-  - TellTarget.FromTarget guards against a zero IPlayerCharacter.Address
-    before dereferencing the unsafe Character* cast
-  - GameFunctions ResolveTextCommandPlaceholderDetour null-checks the
-    Hook reference instead of using the null-forgiving operator
-  - Popout.cs and SettingsTabs/Tabs.cs bounds-check list indexing so
-    a tab drop or empty-worlds list no longer crashes the UI
-  - Debugger.cs now declares IDisposable so the existing Dispose runs
-
-  Correctness fixes:
-
-  - GlobalParametersCache.GetValue captures Cache into a local before
-    the bounds check, so a concurrent Refresh can't slip a different
-    array between check and read
-  - IconUtil binary search bounds initialized to entries.Length-1 and
-    reset on redirect-restart; entries.Length==0 short-circuits
-  - Sheets.WorldsOnDatacenter now compares DataCenter.RowId (was
-    Region.RowId) so it actually returns same-DC worlds
-  - Message.cs back-reference loop iterates the processed Sender/Content
-    properties so chunks added by CheckMessageContent get Message set
-  - Language.zh-Hans Webinterface_Start_Success corrected to
-    "网页界面已启动" (was "网页界面已停止")
-
-  Threading and async:
-
-  - AutoTranslate Entries/ValidEntries are now serialized behind a
-    single lock; the preload worker thread and main thread no longer
-    race on the underlying dictionary/hash set
-  - Privacy retention and cleanup workers bound their framework-refresh
-    waits to 5 seconds with a logged timeout; a hung framework tick can
-    no longer deadlock the background worker
-
-  Resource handling:
-
-  - EmoteCache reuses the static HttpClient instead of allocating a new
-    one per call (closed socket leak)
-  - FontManager wraps HttpClient/HttpResponseMessage in using-blocks
-    and adds EnsureSuccessStatusCode; failed downloads no longer
-    silently produce a zero-byte font file
-  - SearchSelector mixes the row index into the ImGui ID stack so
-    selectables don't collapse to a single ambiguous ID
-  - SettingsTabs/Chat blocked-emote add-button now opens its selector
-    popup on left-click
-
-  Performance:
-
-  - DbViewer text export caches filteredHistory.Count once instead of
-    re-enumerating the IEnumerable on every batch (O(N) instead of
-    O(N²) on large histories)
-
-  License attribution (NOTICE.md, COPYRIGHT, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md
-  and the Credits section in README) is unchanged.
-
-  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
-
-  **Hellion Chat 0.6.1 — Pop-Out Discoverability & /tell Auto-Pop-Out**
-
-  - Pop-out button now visible in the chat header (no more hunting
-    through the right-click menu)
-  - One-time hint banner explains pop-out tabs and the right-click
-    shortcut
-  - New setting: open new /tell tabs directly as pop-out windows
-    (Settings → Chat → Auto-Tell-Tabs)
-  - Pop-out input is now enabled by default — closing a pop-out still
-    returns the tab to the sidebar
-  - Bugfix: dropping or logging out with an LRU/popped auto-tell tab
-    now also closes its pop-out window (no more ghost windows)
-  - Bugfix: dead zone below the chat input bar when the v0.6.0 pop-out
-    hint banner was visible (also fixed retroactively for the v0.6.0
-    banner inside pop-outs)

+  **Hellion Chat 1.4.1 — Theme Engine Performance**
+
+  Second sub-patch of the v1.4.x Polish Sweep series. Heap
+  pressure from the theme engine's per-frame render path
+  removed, plus a tenth built-in theme and hardening for
+  the custom-theme hot-reload.
+
+  - Theme records carry a pre-computed ABGR-packed cache
+    for every color slot; cache is filled when the theme
+    is registered and refreshed defensively on every
+    Switch()
+  - HellionStyle.PushGlobal reads ABGR values from the
+    cache instead of calling ColourUtil.RgbaToAbgr per
+    slot per frame; ~13 % render-time recovery measured
+    in typical scenes (plan estimate was 2–6 %, real
+    ~10–15 %)
+  - ThemeRegistry custom-theme reload distinguishes a
+    recoverable file lock (editor mid-save) from a
+    permanent IO failure; locked themes keep their
+    last-known-good snapshot and retry on the next
+    lookup instead of dropping out of the picker
+  - New built-in: Synthwave Sunset — Hot Magenta + Cyan
+    on midnight violet, 80s neon-grid vibes; tenth theme
+    in the picker
+  - Author credits refreshed: brand themes are credited
+    as "Hellion Forge"; Mint Grove and Forge Merchantman
+    now credited to Carla Beleandis as a community thanks
+
+  No schema bump, no user-visible behaviour change other
+  than smoother frames on GC-sensitive setups and one
+  additional colour option.

+
+  **Hellion Chat 1.4.0 — Critical Lifecycle Fixes**
+
+  First sub-patch of the v1.4.x Polish Sweep series. Seven
+  known lifecycle and race bugs eliminated before any
+  performance refactor sits on top.
+
+  - MessageStore disposal no longer triggers GC.Collect
+    globally; Pooling=false on the SQLite connection means
+    there's nothing left to clean up by hand
+  - PendingMessage and RetentionSweep worker threads are
+    explicitly marked IsBackground=true so the plugin domain
+    can unload during XIVLauncher reload without waiting
+    for them
+  - EmoteCache image and gif loaders moved from async-void
+    to async Task with a shared task tracker, draining
+    on Dispose so an in-flight load can no longer write
+    to a disposed EmoteImages entry
+  - DisposeAsync 10s timeout now warns loudly instead of
+    silently leaving the worker behind
+  - Plugin.Dispose flushes any pending DeferredSaveFrames
+    before tearing services down, so settings changes
+    made in the last few frames before disable are no
+    longer lost
+  - The v13→v14 config migration now reads the pre-v13
+    backup and carries HellionThemeWindowOpacity into the
+    new WindowOpacity field instead of falling back to
+    the default 0.85

+
+  **Hellion Chat 1.3.0 - Plugin Integrations: Honorific**
+
+  First step on the plugin-integration roadmap. HellionChat now
+  listens to Honorific and shows your custom title in the chat
+  header. The slot auto-hides when Honorific is not installed,
+  when no custom title is active, or when you are using the
+  original FFXIV title.
+
+  - New "Integrations" settings tab
+  - Honorific integration with auto-detection and live updates
+  - "Coming soon" preview of the next five planned integrations:
+    context menu actions, smart notifications, RP status block,
+    ExtraChat channels, and quick DM compose
+  - Maintainer attribution buttons for Honorific repo and Caraxi
+  - New service-class pattern under HellionChat/Integrations/

+## Hellion Chat 1.4.2 — ChatLog Frame-Hot-Path
+
+Third sub-patch of the v1.4.x Polish Sweep series. Per-frame
+allocations from the chat-log render path eliminated.
+
+- `DrawMessages` card-mode hoists `theme`/`drawList`/`winLeft`/
+  `winRight`/`borderColorAbgr` out of the per-message loop. About
+  500 redundant calls per frame at 100 visible messages, multiplied
+  by every pop-out window
+- Auto-tell tab tint and icon use a per-tab cache. Hash
+  computation and string allocation only happen when the tell
+  target name or world drifts. `AutoTellTabTint` stays a pure
+  hash helper; cache lives in a thin `TabTintCache` wrapper
+- Status bar gates its tab aggregation behind the same
+  one-second cache it already used for the format strings.
+  LINQ `Sum` and `Count` replaced with a single `foreach` pass
+  that runs on roughly 1 % of frames
+
+Realistic frame-time recovery: 2-5 % in typical scenes, more
+on pop-out-heavy setups because the card-border hoist scales
+per window.
+
+Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — https://discord.gg/X9V7Kcv5gR

+Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

+
+## Hellion Chat 1.4.1 — Theme Engine Performance
+
+Second sub-patch of the v1.4.x Polish Sweep series. Heap
+pressure from the theme engine's per-frame render path
+removed, plus a tenth built-in theme and hardening for
+the custom-theme hot-reload.
+
+- Theme records carry a pre-computed ABGR-packed cache
+  for every color slot; cache is filled when the theme
+  is registered and refreshed defensively on every
+  `Switch()`
+- `HellionStyle.PushGlobal` reads ABGR values from the
+  cache instead of calling `ColourUtil.RgbaToAbgr` per
+  slot per frame; ~13 % render-time recovery measured
+  in typical scenes (plan estimate was 2–6 %, real
+  ~10–15 %)
+- `ThemeRegistry` custom-theme reload distinguishes a
+  recoverable file lock (editor mid-save) from a
+  permanent IO failure; locked themes keep their
+  last-known-good snapshot and retry on the next
+  lookup instead of dropping out of the picker
+- New built-in: **Synthwave Sunset** — Hot Magenta + Cyan
+  on midnight violet, 80s neon-grid vibes; tenth theme
+  in the picker
+- Author credits refreshed: brand themes are credited
+  as "Hellion Forge"; **Mint Grove** and **Forge
+  Merchantman** now credited to **Carla Beleandis** as
+  a community thanks
+
+No schema bump, no user-visible behaviour change other
+than smoother frames on GC-sensitive setups and one
+additional colour option.

+
+## Hellion Chat 1.4.0 — Critical Lifecycle Fixes
+
+First sub-patch of the v1.4.x Polish Sweep series. Seven
+known lifecycle and race bugs eliminated before any
+performance refactor sits on top.
+
+- MessageStore disposal no longer triggers GC.Collect
+  globally; Pooling=false on the SQLite connection means
+  there's nothing left to clean up by hand
+- PendingMessage and RetentionSweep worker threads are
+  explicitly marked IsBackground=true so the plugin domain
+  can unload during XIVLauncher reload without waiting
+  for them
+- EmoteCache image and gif loaders moved from async-void
+  to async Task with a shared task tracker, draining
+  on Dispose so an in-flight load can no longer write
+  to a disposed EmoteImages entry
+- DisposeAsync 10s timeout now warns loudly instead of
+  silently leaving the worker behind
+- Plugin.Dispose flushes any pending DeferredSaveFrames
+  before tearing services down, so settings changes
+  made in the last few frames before disable are no
+  longer lost
+- The v13→v14 config migration now reads the pre-v13
+  backup and carries HellionThemeWindowOpacity into the
+  new WindowOpacity field instead of falling back to
+  the default 0.85

+## Hellion Chat 1.3.0 - Plugin Integrations: Honorific
+
+First step on the plugin-integration roadmap. HellionChat now
+listens to Honorific and shows your custom title in the chat
+header. The slot auto-hides when Honorific is not installed,
+when no custom title is active, or when you are using the
+original FFXIV title.
+
+- New "Integrations" settings tab
+- Honorific integration with auto-detection and live updates
+- "Coming soon" preview of the next five planned integrations:
+  context menu actions, smart notifications, RP status block,
+  ExtraChat channels, and quick DM compose
+- Maintainer attribution buttons for Honorific repo and Caraxi
+- New service-class pattern under HellionChat/Integrations/

+
+## 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.
