Merge branch 'feature/v1.5.2'

Preflight Block E (`dotnet csharpier check`) flagged two reflows
in the v1.5.2 code: the ForgeBronzeDim Vector4 constant needed
multi-line form, and a handful of switch arms / long Plugin.Config
chains in WizardStateSmokeStep needed line-breaks at csharpier's
print-width. Pure formatting — zero functional change. Block D
build stays clean, Block E now passes.

+- Symbol-Picker im Chat-Eingang: ein kleiner Smile-Button links neben dem Kanal-Indikator öffnet ein
+  Popup mit zwei Tabs. Der erste listet alle 161 FFXIV-PUA-Glyphen (Dalamuds SeIconChar); der zweite
+  trägt 97 verifizierte BMP-Symbole (Latin-Marken, Währungen, das ganze griechische Alphabet,
+  Geometrie, Spielkarten, Noten) — jedes davon über `/echo` und `/say` in einer vierrundigen
+  Whitelist-Probe durchgereicht, damit der Channel-Render dem entspricht, was der Picker anzeigt.
+  Klick fügt das Symbol an der Cursor-Position ein, Multi-Insert lässt das Popup offen, eine
+  Recent-Used-Leiste zeigt die letzten sechzehn Picks über beide Tabs. Toggle in Settings → Chat →
+  Nachrichten-Verhalten, Default an.
+- Verlauf in angepinnten Tell-Tabs lädt wieder vollständig: ein versteckter 500-Zeilen-Scan-Cap in
+  PreloadHistory hat das User-Setting `AutoTellTabsHistoryPreload` überschrieben, wodurch
+  weniger-frequente Tell-Partner ihren Backlog verloren haben sobald die Scan-Schicht mit anderen
+  Chat-Partnern voll lief. Cap ist raus, der Index auf `(Receiver, Date)` hält die Query schnell.
+- Slash-Command-Teardown: /hellion, /hellionView, /hellionDebugger (und im Debug-Build

+  Registrierung, statt mit identischen Args neu zu registrieren — schließt eine latente

+- v1.4.x-Polish-Sweep endet hier. Der ImGuiListClipper-Refactor von der v1.4.10-Reserve-Liste wurde

+  Quirk ist — Windows-User haben es nie gesehen. Spike dafür kommt in einem späteren Patch. Nächster
+  Major-Cycle ist v1.5.0 mit der DI-Container-Adoption (`Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting` +
+  `ILogger<T>`) nach dem Lightless-Vorbild.

+- First-Frame-HITCH unter 100 ms: der erste Render-Frame des Plugins liegt jetzt bei ~76 ms Median
+  (vorher ~127 ms), die Dalamud-Warnung „UiBuilder(Hellion Chat) > 100ms" beim Plugin-Start ist
+  damit weg. Erreicht durch das Verlagern von sechs nicht-essentiellen Render- Sektionen
+  (Statusleiste, Kanalname-Chunks, Fenster-Bounds-Check, Hinweis-Banner, Autocomplete,
+  Input-Preview) auf den zweiten Frame. Bei 60 fps sieht man die deferred-Sektionen ~17 ms später,
+  was im Atlas-Build-Fenster nach einem Reload unsichtbar bleibt.
+- Slash-Commands zentral registriert: /hellion, /hellionView, /hellionSeString und /hellionDebugger
+  werden jetzt im Plugin-Load zentral registriert statt erst beim ersten Öffnen ihres Ziel-Fensters.
+  Heißt: die Befehle funktionieren ab dem ersten Tick, auch wenn das jeweilige Fenster nie geöffnet
+  wurde. Der „Einstellungen"-Button im Plugin-Manager hängt am selben Pfad.
+- Plugin-Load-Diagnose-Logs als Tripwire: die Profiling-Logs für MessageStore.Connect,
+  MessageStore.Migrate, FilterAllTabs und den Auto-Translate-Warmup bleiben auf Information-Level
+  eingeschaltet. Falls eine zukünftige Änderung die Lade-Zeit wieder über 100 ms drückt, taucht der
+  Mehrverbrauch direkt im /xllog auf, ohne dass jemand erst den Debug-Filter einschalten muss.
+- ChatTwo-IPC-Kompatibilitäts-Layer: HellionChat spiegelt jetzt die komplette ChatTwo-IPC-Surface
+  (`GetChatInputState`, `ChatInputStateChanged`, `Register`, `Unregister`, `Available`, `Invoke`)
+  zusätzlich zu unseren eigenen `HellionChat.*`-Gates unter dem `ChatTwo.*`-Namensraum. Drittseitige
+  Integrationen die nur auf ChatTwo's IPC reagieren, etwa die Kontextmenü-Hooks von Artisan und
+  AllaganTools, funktionieren damit weiter ohne Code-Änderung auf ihrer Seite. Die
+  Conflict-Detection blockiert das parallele Laden von ChatTwo, daher kein Namensraum-Konflikt im
+  Live-Betrieb.
+- Migration v17 unverändert: kein Schema-Bump, kein Config-Migrations- Aufwand. Nach dem Update
+  läuft das Plugin gegen die bestehende v17-Datenbank weiter.

+- **Architektur-Umbau ohne User-spürbare Verhaltens-Änderung:** der Plugin-Bootstrap wechselt auf
+  einen Generic-Host DI-Container (`Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting` + `IServiceCollection`) nach dem
+  Lightless-Sync-Muster. 18 Service-Klassen wandern von einem statischen `Plugin.LogProxy`-Locator
+  auf typisierte `ILogger<T>`-Constructor-Injection. `DalamudLogger` brückt
+  `Microsoft.Extensions.Logging` über auf Dalamuds `IPluginLog` — im xllog erscheinen jetzt
+  Service-spezifische Spalten wie `[ MessageManager]` und `[Honori...ervice]`.
+- **Plugin.LogProxy bleibt für die acht Buckets erhalten,** die Constructor-Injection nicht
+  erreicht: Static-Helper (EmoteCache, AutoTranslate, MemoryUtil, WrapperUtil), Dalamud-Reflektion
+  (Configuration), Data-Class mit Massen-Instanziierung (Message) und Instanz-Klassen die nur aus
+  Static-Methods loggen (FontManager, eine GameFunctions-Stelle).
+- **Performance bestätigt durch Cross-Plugin-Baseline:** HellionChat First-Frame-HITCH 77 ms Median,
+  Chat 2 v1.40.2 74 ms Median — kein DI-Penalty gegenüber dem Upstream-Fork-Origin. Lightless und
+  XIVInstantMessenger liegen bei ~7 ms weil sie ihren FontAtlas-Build deferren; das wird das
+  v1.5.1-Item.
+- **User-sichtbarer Bug-Fix nebenbei:** Slash-Command-Einfügen in das Chat-Eingabefeld (Friend-List
+  "/tell"-Action plus Plugin-Inserts von Artisan, AllaganTools und ähnlichen) ersetzt jetzt den
+  vorhandenen Input, statt anzukonkatenieren. Cherry-Pick aus ChatTwo upstream `ee7768ac` mit
+  Namespace-Anpassung.
+- **Foundation für die Plugin-Integrations-Wave:** v1.5.7-11 (Context-Menu, NotificationMaster,
+  Moodles, ExtraChat, XIVIM Quick-DM) werden ab jetzt strukturell handhabbar — neue Services sind
+  ein `services.AddSingleton<T>` plus ein paar Factory-Lambda- Zeilen, kein Plugin.cs-Anflanschen
+  mehr.

+- **FontManager-Refactor.** Der FontAtlas baut jetzt nur noch einmal pro Plugin-Load statt vier- bis
+  fünfmal. Weniger CPU- und GPU-Druck in den ersten Sekunden nach einem Reload, weniger
+  Atlas-Texture-Memory-Churn. Die acht Font-Einstellungen können live über den neuen
+  `RebuildDelegateFonts`-Pfad geändert werden, ohne dass das Plugin neu geladen werden muss.
+- **Hellion Forge Signatur.** Das Plugin trägt jetzt eine ASCII-Fuchs-Signatur. Im `/xllog`
+  erscheint beim Plugin-Load ein kleiner Fuchs-Kopf, im First-Run-Wizard und unter Settings →
+  Information taucht eine eingeklappte „Hellion Forge"-Sektion mit dem vollen Fuchs auf. Gezeichnet
+  von Julia Moon, fest in der Plugin-DLL eingebettet.
+- **Honorific-Integration bleibt unverändert.** Der ursprünglich geplante Gradient-Render-Pfad
+  (Wave/Pulse-Animation) entfällt. Honorific 3.2 stellt keine IPC für den fertig gerenderten
+  Gradient-Frame zur Verfügung, und ein eigener Port der Pride-Palette wurde verworfen. Die
+  Honorific-Anzeige bleibt wie in v1.4.7 etabliert (statischer Glow plus Title).
+- **Hinweis zum HITCH-Win.** Der ursprünglich angepeilte 10×-First-Frame-Sprung
+  (Lightless/XIVIM-Pattern, ~7 ms statt ~75 ms) ist in diesem Cycle nicht eingetreten. Die

Keine neuen Settings, nur das Bestehende sauber sichtbar.
+- **Staged-Commit und Test-Hint auf der Fertig-Bühne.** Auswahl wird erst beim Klick auf „Fertig ✓" geschrieben. „Später entscheiden" oder X-Close lässt die bestehende Config unangetastet, ein nicht angefasster Step behält die alten Werte.

 # Contributing to HellionChat
 
-Thanks for taking a look. HellionChat is a one-person side project developed under Hellion Forge. It started as a fork
-of [Chat 2](https://github.com/Infiziert90/ChatTwo) and has since become a standalone plugin under its own namespace,
-IPC channels and source tree (standalone-cut completed in v1.0.0). Forking HellionChat itself is explicitly permitted
-under the EUPL-1.2.

 ## Before You Open Anything
 
-- Read the [README](README.md) so you understand the scope: a privacy-focused, EUPL-1.2-licensed Dalamud plugin that
-  intentionally removes the upstream webinterface and ships privacy-first defaults.
-- Read [`docs/UPSTREAM_SYNC.md`](docs/UPSTREAM_SYNC.md). Active cherry-picking from upstream Chat 2 has ended in the
-  v1.4.x cycle; HellionChat continues as an independent codebase. Existing upstream-derived code keeps its attribution.
-  New contributions stand on their own and do not need to be cherry-pick-compatible.
-- Read [`SECURITY.md`](SECURITY.md). Anything security-sensitive goes through a private advisory, never a public issue
-  or PR.

 ## What I Will Accept
 
 - Bug fixes for behaviour documented in the README, the in-plugin settings or the changelog.
 - Translation contributions for Hellion-specific strings via direct pull requests against
-  `HellionChat/Resources/HellionStrings.*.resx`. Translations for upstream Chat 2 strings (`Language.*.resx`) are not
-  handled here; those go to the upstream Chat 2 project.

 ## What I Will Probably Decline
 
-- Re-introducing the webinterface or any remote-access feature. It was removed in v0.2.0 on purpose. See the README
-  section "Was gegenüber Chat 2 fehlt".
-- Features that bypass the privacy filter or weaken the default retention behaviour without an explicit, documented
-  opt-in.
-- Sweeping refactors that touch large parts of the codebase. The maintenance cost outweighs the benefit for a one-person
-  project. (This used to be doubly important because of the upstream cherry-pick path; that path is closed now, but the
-  rule still holds on its own merits.)
-- AI-generated code dropped in without disclosure or human review. See [`docs/AI_DISCLOSURE.md`](docs/AI_DISCLOSURE.md)
-  for how I handle AI assistance on my side; I expect comparable transparency from contributors.

 ## Workflow
 
-1. Open an issue (bug or feature request) using the templates under `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/`. Skip this for trivial
-   typos.
-2. Fork the repository and branch off `main`. Branch naming is informal; something like `fix/auto-tell-history-empty` or
-   `feat/theme-export` is fine.
-3. Match the existing code style. The repository ships an `.editorconfig` that VS Code and Rider pick up automatically.
-4. Keep commits focused. Several small commits with clear messages are easier to review than one large one.
-   Squash-on-merge happens at the PR level if needed.

-    **v1.4.7 — Backlog Cleanup and Mid-Features (2026-05-13)**
+    **v1.5.2 — First-Run Wizard Rework (2026-05-18)**
 
-    Eighth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. First
-    user-visible feature bundle since v1.4.5 — pinned tell tabs that
-    survive relog, opt-in Honorific glow rendering, and a configurable
-    sidebar.
+    UX patch. The first-run wizard becomes a four-step flow with a
+    new Roleplay privacy profile and a power-settings step that
+    surfaces previously-hidden defaults. Existing v1.5.1 users see
+    the new wizard once on first v1.5.2 boot.
 
-    - TempTell Pin: right-click a TempTell tab in the sidebar to pin
-      it. Pinned tabs survive relog, keep their conversation history
-      (loaded on demand from the message store), and stay bound to
-      the same /tell partner. Hard cap of 5 pinned tabs in a pool
-      separate from the 15-tab auto-tell pool — total ceiling is 20
-      tabs. New 'Pinned' section in the sidebar with its own divider
-      header
-    - Honorific Glow outline now renders when the title carries a
-      Glow colour. Opt-in via Settings → Integrations → 'Render glow
-      outlines (Honorific)' (default off, dodges the per-frame
-      DrawList overhead on low-end hardware). Gradient (Color3 /
-      GradientColourSet / Wave / Pulse) is parsed but rendered
-      statically — a later cycle will port the full animation
-    - Sidebar width is now configurable in Theme & Layout (range
-      44–160 px). Default stays icon-only; widen to fit section
-      headers like 'Active Tells (3)' without truncation
-    - Settings Save no longer pops the chat input back to /tell with
-      a pinned partner — Configuration.UpdateFrom now preserves the
-      runtime CurrentChannel across the persistent-tab merge, and
-      TabSwitched deep-clones the seeded channel instead of sharing
-      the previous tab's UsedChannel
-    - Util/ImGuiUtil.cs DrawArrows IconButton id now uses
-      (id + 1).ToString() instead of the operator-precedence quirk
-      id + 1.ToString() — generated IDs stay numerically stable
-    - Internal: IPluginLogProxy indirection over Dalamud's IPluginLog
-      routes all ~91 Plugin.Log call sites through a testable proxy.
-      MessageStore.Migrate0 can now run in xUnit without loading
-      Dalamud.dll, closing the gap F12.1 left in v1.4.6
-    - Internal: TempTab counter switched from an Interlocked cached
-      field to a derived Tabs.Count(predicate) — pin-state transitions
-      are cold-path and don't need lock-free reads
+    What changes user-visible:
+
+    - Wizard navigation: Welcome → Privacy profile → Power settings
+      → Done. Forge-Bronze pagination dots, dedicated stage for the
+      power settings so they are no longer buried in Settings.
+    - Fourth privacy profile "Roleplay": Privacy-First plus Say and
+      both emote types, with a 30-day window for Say and a 90-day
+      window for emotes. Shout, Yell and Novice Network stay out.
+    - Privacy picker becomes a 2x2 grid. Casual stays the
+      recommended option with a ★ marker.
+    - Power-settings step covers Load Previous Session, Filter
+      Include Previous Sessions, Auto-Tell-Tabs History Preload,
+      Compact Density, Prettier Timestamps and a built-in theme
+      picker. All six map to existing Configuration fields — no new
+      settings introduced.
+    - Staged commit: the wizard only writes to Config on the Finish
+      step. Decide-later or X-close at any point leaves the existing
+      config untouched.
+    - Inline test hint on the done step: "type /tell <Player Name>
+      into chat" surfaces the auto-tell-tab spawn mechanism.
+    - Window starts at 720x480 (was 900x560) and can shrink to
+      600x400; Step 1 keeps the fox banner in a folded TreeNode so
+      the onboarding copy stays primary.
+    - Existing users get the new wizard surfaced once on first boot
+      after the update via the new WizardLastShownVersion config
+      field. Future cycles bump the constant only when the wizard
+      itself changes shape.
+
+    Under the hood:
+
+    - WizardStateSmokeStep added to /xlperf alongside the FontManager
+      and ThemeSwitch self-tests.
+    - Twelve new pure-helper xUnit Facts in the Build Suite cover
+      all four privacy profile sets and their retention overrides.
+
+    Migration v17 stays (no schema bump). The Configuration grows
+    one optional string field (WizardLastShownVersion) which
+    defaults to empty for legacy users.

-    **v1.4.6 — Code Hygiene and Refactor (2026-05-12)**
+    **v1.5.1 — FontAtlas Refactor and Hellion Forge Signature (2026-05-17)**
 
-    Maintenance patch. No user-visible behaviour changes; tightens the
-    development feedback loop, fixes two upstream-inherited bugs, and
-    prepares the code for the v1.4.7 backlog cleanup.
+    Hybrid FontManager refactor plus an embedded provenance mark.
 
-    - preflight.sh gains a csharpier reflow check and a markdownlint
-      pass so style drift and markdown violations are caught at the
-      pre-push gate
-    - FontManager fallback catches the full set of atlas-toolkit
-      throws (IO, InvalidOperation, ArgumentException) — a corrupt
-      font config no longer takes down the whole atlas build
-    - BrandingLinks and IntegrationLinks URLs validated on plugin
-      load — a typo in a future URL rotation now throws at startup
-    - Cherry-picked from ChatTwo upstream f35b7d3: Chat.SetChannel
-      no longer leaks the native Utf8String when the linkshell check
-      rejects the channel
-    - Cherry-picked from ChatTwo upstream f35b7d3: Tab.Clone now
-      deep-clones UsedChannel and TellTarget — PopOut and Temp tabs
-      no longer mutate each other's channel state
-    - Active-tab underline scales with DPI and rounds to physical
-      pixels for crisp rendering above 100% scaling
-    - IconButton width parameter no longer subtracts HUD-scaled
-      padding from a raw int (measured width passes through verbatim)
-    - Internal: HellionStyle ChildBgAlpha extracted to a testable
-      helper; Plugin.SaveConfig clones only the temp tabs;
-      SettingsOverview caches the draw-list per frame;
-      Dalamud.Utility.Util surface routed through an IPlatformUtil
-      indirection (MessageStore IsWine probe is now testable in
-      isolation)
-    - Built-in themes: Crystal Nocturne (sapphire and electric
-      magenta over obsidian, by CRYSTALLITE) replaces Moonlit Bloom.
-      Users with Moonlit Bloom selected fall back to Hellion Arctic
-      on first load
+    What changes under the hood:
+
+    - FontManager handle creation moves into the ctor inside a single
+      atlas.SuppressAutoRebuild() block. The font atlas now builds once
+      per plugin load instead of four to five times — less CPU and GPU
+      pressure in the first seconds after a reload, less atlas texture
+      memory churn.
+    - Hybrid property model: Axis, AxisItalic and FontAwesome become
+      init-only handles. RegularFont and ItalicFont stay mutable because
+      the eight font settings still need to replace them at runtime —
+      that path is funnelled through RebuildDelegateFonts() now and
+      runs without a plugin reload.
+    - FontAwesome reuses Dalamud's UiBuilder.IconFontFixedWidthHandle
+      instead of building its own atlas slot. One delegate-build step
+      less in the ctor.
+    - BuildFontsAsync and BuildFonts are removed; the live mutation
+      path is RebuildDelegateFonts() now.
+    - Two FontManager self-test steps registered with /xlperf: ctor
+      smoke (every handle non-null after Phase-1 resolve, no atlas
+      load-exception) and push smoke (Push() returns without throwing).
+
+    Honorific full-gradient port (originally the v1.5.1 main item) was
+    dropped: Honorific 3.2 exposes no IPC for the rendered gradient
+    frame, and an in-plugin port of the colour palette was declined.
+    The integration stays at the v1.4.7 glow-only shape.
+
+    User-visible:
+
+    - Hellion Forge signature: a small fox-head ASCII silhouette is
+      emitted to /xllog on every plugin load, and a full fox banner
+      with "Hellion Forge" set inside the body is available as a
+      folded TreeNode in the First-Run Wizard and Settings ->
+      Information tab. Drawn by Julia Moon, embedded in the plugin DLL.
+    - No settings changes, no migration. v17 stays.
+
+    Note on performance: the cross-plugin baseline target from v1.5.0
+    (matching Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger at ~7 ms HITCH) did
+    not land this cycle. HITCH stays around 80 ms because the cost is
+    in the UiBuilder first-frame render path, not in the atlas build
+    (which this cycle did reduce from 4-5 builds per load to 1). A
+    first-frame render investigation is reserved for a later cycle.

-    **v1.4.5 — UX and Robustness (2026-05-12)**
+    **v1.5.0 — DI Foundation and Service Refactor (2026-05-17)**
 
-    Sixth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. Chat-log draw
-    failures surface as a notification, the first-run wizard has an
-    explicit "Later" option, the input history clears on plugin reload,
-    and the status bar version slot stops clipping in narrow windows.
+    Major architecture cycle. The plugin bootstrap moves to a
+    generic-host DI container (Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting +
+    IServiceCollection) modelled on Lightless Sync. Service logging
+    moves from a static Plugin.LogProxy locator to typed
+    Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger<T> via constructor injection,
+    bridged over Dalamud's IPluginLog by a custom DalamudLogger trio.
 
-    - Chat window draw errors now show a one-shot notification instead
-      of failing silently — stack trace stays in /xllog
-    - First-run wizard: explicit "Later — keep defaults" button.
-      Closing the X no longer silently accepts the defaults; the wizard
-      reopens on the next plugin load if nothing was picked
-    - InputHistoryService clears on plugin dispose so the previous
-      session's typed commands don't bleed into the next load
-    - Status bar hides the version slot when the chat window is too
-      narrow to fit all five slots without overlap
-    - Internal: explicit session-only Auto-Tell-Tab invariant in
-      Plugin.cs plus a pinning test in the Build-Suite
-    - Internal: FontManager falls back to the system font if the
-      embedded Hellion font resource is missing — logs a Warning
+    What changes under the hood:
+
+    - 18 instance-class services migrate to ILogger<T> via constructor
+      injection across four slices: data layer (MessageStore,
+      MessageManager, AutoTellTabsService), IPC and integrations
+      (HonorificService, IpcManager, TypingIpc, ExtraChat, the three
+      GameFunctions classes), UI window layer (ChatLogWindow,
+      DbViewer, Popout, three settings tabs), and root (Commands,
+      ThemeRegistry, PayloadHandler).
+    - Plugin.LogProxy stays in place for the eight buckets ctor
+      injection cannot reach: static helpers (EmoteCache,
+      AutoTranslate, MemoryUtil, WrapperUtil), Dalamud-reflected
+      types (Configuration), the Message data class, and instance
+      classes that only log from static methods (FontManager, one
+      GameFunctions site).
+    - Plugin.cs finishes at 1012 lines — virtually identical to the
+      pre-cycle 1013. The new Phase-1 host build and Plugin.X bridge
+      wiring trade out exactly the service and window allocations
+      that previously lived in LoadAsync.
+    - Cross-plugin baseline confirms no performance penalty against
+      Chat 2: HellionChat first-frame HITCH 77 ms median, Chat 2
+      74 ms median. Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger sit around
+      7 ms by deferring their font-atlas build past Finished
+      loading — that pattern is the v1.5.1 follow-up.
+
+    User-visible:
+
+    - Slash-command insert fix: pasting a slash command into the
+      chat input (Friend List "/tell" action, plugin-driven inserts
+      from Artisan, AllaganTools etc.) now replaces the existing
+      input instead of concatenating. Cherry-picked from ChatTwo
+      upstream ee7768ac with namespace adaptation.
+
+    Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).

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

-    **v1.4.4 — Threading and IPC safety polish (2026-05-12)**
+    **v1.4.10 — Symbol-Picker and Tell-History Fix (2026-05-16)**
 
-    Fifth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. Threading
-    assumptions are documented per-method, a hot-path lock falls
-    away, and the privacy filter speaks up when an unknown ChatType
-    shows up.
+    Eleventh and final sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series.
+    Symbol picker for the chat input, a tell-history reload fix for
+    users with many active partners, and a closing cleanup sweep
+    before v1.5.0 picks up the DI-container adoption.
 
-    - AutoTellTabs hot-path getter uses an Interlocked counter
-      instead of taking the lock on every read
-    - Honorific integration: per-method threading banners, plus
-      Warning-level log on unsubscribe failure
-    - AutoTranslate warmup thread marked IsBackground so plugin
-      unload doesn't wait for it
-    - PrivacyFilter logs once per unknown ChatType so a future
-      patch's added channel doesn't drop off the radar
-    - New installs persist unknown channels by default; existing
-      configs keep their explicit choice
+    - Symbol picker: a small smile-icon button left of the channel
+      indicator opens a popup with two tabs. The first lists all 161
+      FFXIV PUA glyphs (Dalamud's SeIconChar enum); the second
+      carries 97 server-verified BMP symbols (latin marks, currency,
+      the full Greek alphabet, geometric shapes, suits, notes) —
+      every one of them round-tripped through /echo and /say in a
+      four-round probe so the in-channel render matches what the
+      picker shows. Click drops the glyph at the caret, multi-insert
+      keeps the popup open, and a recent-used strip floats the last
+      sixteen picks across both tabs. Toggle in Settings → Chat →
+      Message behaviour, default on.
+    - Pinned auto-tell tabs reload their full history again: a
+      hidden 500-row scan cap in PreloadHistory used to override the
+      user-configurable AutoTellTabsHistoryPreload setting, so
+      less-frequent pinned partners (rare /tell sessions in an
+      otherwise busy week) lost their backlog. The cap is removed;
+      the (Receiver, Date) index keeps SQL fast, the client-side
+      loop still respects your setting as the upper bound.
+    - Slash-command teardown: /hellion, /hellionView,
+      /hellionDebugger (and #if DEBUG /hellionSeString) wrappers are
+      now cached as private fields. Plugin teardown detaches the
+      live registration instead of re-Register'ing with identical
+      args — closes a latent maintenance hazard from v1.4.9.
+    - v1.4.x polish-sweep wraps up here. The ImGuiListClipper render
+      refactor that was on the v1.4.10 reserve list got dropped
+      after cross-platform smoke showed the scroll rubber-band is a
+      Wine / Linux render-pipeline quirk, not universal — Windows
+      users never saw it. It will get its own platform-targeted
+      spike in a later patch. Next major cycle is v1.5.0 with the
+      DI-container adoption (Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting +
+      ILogger<T>) modelled on Lightless.
+    - Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).

+ASCII art collected during the Hellion Chat branding pass. The Hellion Chat mascot is a fox, and two
+variants ship inside the plugin DLL as embedded resources and render at runtime. Everything in this
+folder is the wider study collection that did not get picked for the live slots, kept around as
+reference material and for anyone who wants to remix or build on top of them.
+
+## Live assets (rendered at runtime)
+
+These two files live as embedded resources under `HellionChat/Resources/Branding/` and are loaded by
+the plugin at startup. They are intentionally outside this folder so the build pipeline can treat
+them as binary blobs rather than loose assets.

 ## A direct word to Infi and Anna
 
-Hi. I am Florian. I forked Chat 2 because I wanted a privacy-by-default version for my own use case and a small group of
-friends I play with, not because I thought I could do anything better than what you built. The opposite is true.
-ChatTwo's default of full history and cross-character logging is the right call for most users. I just have a different
-threat model and a different data-handling philosophy that fits a smaller, locally-stored, retention- limited approach.

-What HellionChat adds is mostly Hellion-specific surface area: a privacy filter, per-channel retention windows, an
-export pipeline, an Auto-Tell- Tabs feature for FFXIV club greeters, the Hellion theme and font, German localisation,
-and a settings UX rebuild. None of it touches the bones of what you built. Where I had to modify your code I tried to
-keep the edits minimal, isolated to clearly-marked Hellion files, and reversible.

-Concrete example: when API 15 hit, I cherry-picked your fix for the BetterTTV emote regression with `git cherry-pick -x`
-so authorship and co-author trail stay intact. That was the standard I held to as long as cherry-picking was viable, and

 With ChatTwo entering its rework cycle, the active cherry-pick pipeline is closed since v1.4.x — see
-[docs/UPSTREAM_SYNC.md](docs/UPSTREAM_SYNC.md) for the full reasoning. The attribution standard stays exactly the same:
-every existing `(cherry picked from commit ...)` line remains in the git history, the EUPL-1.2 anchor lines in source
-files are untouched, and this NOTICE.md remains canonical. If anything from this point forward originates from Chat 2 it
-will be a hand-port at most, called out as such in the commit message and source comments, not a `git cherry-pick`.

 ## Why this fork is not upstreamed
 
-The privacy-by-default position fits a small audience. ChatTwo's full-history-by-default position fits a much larger
-one, including the roleplaying community where chat archive is part of the play experience. Trying to upstream
-HellionChat's defaults would have meant arguing that Chat 2's defaults are wrong, and they are not. They are right for
-the user base ChatTwo serves. So I keep the fork separate and attribute clearly. Active cherry-picking from upstream
-stopped in the v1.4.x cycle once Chat 2's rework made selective patches no longer portable; the existing cherry-pick
-trail stays in the git history.

 ## Why HellionChat left the GitHub fork network
 
-The Dalamud plugin ecosystem treats the GitHub-Fork relation as a signal that a fork is either a development branch or a
-dead mirror. HellionChat is neither. It is an independently-maintained EUPL-1.2 fork with its own release cadence, its
-own custom repo, its own user base. Detaching the fork-network relation just makes the situation honest. The git
-history, the existing cherry-pick trail, and the attribution stay exactly the same. The only thing that changes is the
-GitHub UI no longer says "forked from".

 ## Trademarks and naming
 
-"Chat 2" and "ChatTwo" are the names Infi and Anna chose for the upstream plugin. HellionChat does not use either of
-those names in user-facing copy except where required to describe origin (settings tab, manifest, this file, the
-README). The Hellion brand is mine.

-- The plugin does not phone home. No telemetry, no analytics, no crash reporter, no usage counter, no remote update

 ### 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.

 - **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.
