- 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 /hellionSeString) sind als private Felder
-  gecached. Plugin-Dispose detached die echte Registrierung, statt
-  mit identischen Args neu zu registrieren — schließt eine latente
-  Wartungs-Falle aus v1.4.9.
- v1.4.x-Polish-Sweep endet hier. Der ImGuiListClipper-Refactor von
-  der v1.4.10-Reserve-Liste wurde gecancelt, nachdem der Cross-
-  Plattform-Smoke gezeigt hat dass das Scroll-Gummi ein Wine/Linux-
-  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.
- Migration v17 unverändert: kein Schema-Bump, kein
-  Config-Migrations-Aufwand.

-**Hellion Chat 1.4.4 — Threading- und IPC-Sicherheits-Politur**
-
-Fünfter Sub-Patch der v1.4.x Polish-Sweep-Serie. Threading-Annahmen werden explizit pro Methode dokumentiert, ein
-Hot-Path-Lock im Auto-Tell-Tab-Counter fällt weg, IPC-Cleanup wird sichtbar wenn er fehlschlägt und der Privacy-Filter
-spricht jetzt bei unbekannten ChatTypes.
-
- **AutoTellTabsService Hot-Path-Lock entfernt.** `ActiveTempTabCount` hat bisher pro Render-Frame ein LINQ-Count unter
-  einem Lock gemacht. Jetzt läuft das über einen Interlocked-Counter der parallel zur Tabs-Liste mitgeführt wird,
-  inklusive Resync-Hook für den Snapshot-Restore-Pfad in `SaveConfig`. Plus Pure-Helper-Test-Mirror in der Build-Suite
-  damit die Atomicity-Semantik nicht versehentlich wegrefactored wird
- **HonorificService selbst-dokumentierende Threading-Banner.** Statt eines Block-Comments am Klassen-Ende hat jede
-  IPC-Callback-Methode jetzt einen 1-Zeilen-Banner darüber, der den Thread-Kontext direkt am Call-Site benennt
-  (framework only, framework scheduled, any). Mehr Hilfe für künftige Reviews als ein abstraktes Threading-Kapitel
- **Unsubscribe-Failure ist jetzt sichtbar.** `TryUnsubscribe` hat ein Honorific-Unsubscribe-Failure bisher als Debug
-  geloggt, was bei Standard-Loglevel verschluckt wurde. Eine geleakte Subscription kann den Service über Plugin-Reloads
-  hinweg leben lassen, also läuft der Log jetzt auf Warning
- **AutoTranslate-Warmup blockiert den Plugin-Unload nicht mehr.** Der Cache-Warmup-Thread war ohne `IsBackground=true`
-  unterwegs, was den Unload um 100-300 ms verzögern konnte. Pattern-Match zu MessageManager und RetentionSweep (beide
-  seit v1.4.0)
- **Privacy-Filter loggt unbekannte ChatTypes.** Wenn FFXIV durch einen Patch einen neuen ChatType einführt der weder in
-  der Whitelist noch in den Defaults steht, wird er bisher silent durch den Failsafe geleitet. Jetzt loggt der Filter
-  einmalig pro Runtime eine Warning mit dem Type und dem Failsafe-Wert. Dedup über ein NonSerialized-HashSet, also kein
-  Log-Spam
- **Default-Flip für neue Installationen.** `PrivacyPersistUnknownChannels` startet bei neuen Configs jetzt auf `true`,
-  damit ein Patch-bedingt neuer ChatType nicht stillschweigend gedroppt wird bevor der User entscheiden kann. Bestehende
-  Configs behalten ihre Wahl, weil der Deserializer den Initializer überschreibt. Keine Migration, kein Schema-Bump
-
-Keine User-sichtbaren Funktions-Änderungen außer dem Default-Flip für neue Installationen. Settings, Themes, Tabs und
-das Privacy-Verhalten für Bestand bleiben unangetastet.

-**Hellion Chat 1.4.5 — UX und Robustheit**
-
-Sechster Sub-Patch der v1.4.x Polish-Sweep-Serie. Render-Fehler im Chat-Fenster werden jetzt sichtbar, der
-First-Run-Wizard hat eine explizite Cancel-Schaltfläche, der Eingabe-Verlauf bleibt nicht mehr über Plugin-Reloads
-hinweg liegen, und die Statusleiste klippt in schmalen Fenstern nicht mehr.
-
- **Fehler-Benachrichtigung im Chat-Fenster.** Wenn ein Render-Fehler in `DrawChatLog` auftritt, zeigt das Plugin jetzt
-  eine einmalige Warning-Notification mit Verweis aufs `/xllog`, statt das Fenster stillschweigend leer zu lassen. Der
-  Stack-Trace selbst geht weiter via `Plugin.Log.Error` ins Logfile. De-Dup über Per-Session-Bool, damit ein
-  wiederkehrender Fehler die Notification-Stack nicht pro Frame neu vollkippt
- **First-Run-Wizard trennt Accept und Close.** `OnClose` setzt nicht mehr stillschweigend `FirstRunCompleted=true`,
-  also lässt das X den Wizard schwebend zurück und er kommt beim nächsten Plugin-Reload wieder. Eine neue „Später —
-  Defaults behalten"-Schaltfläche im Footer ist der explizite Weg, ohne Profil-Auswahl rauszukommen. Strings bilingual
-  EN+DE plus Tooltip
- **Eingabe-Verlauf wird beim Plugin-Reload geleert.** `InputHistoryService.Reset` hängt jetzt in `Plugin.DisposeAsync`
-  neben den anderen Pure-Memory-Cleanups, damit der statische Zustand aus der vorigen Session den nächsten Load nicht
-  mehr erbt
- **Statusleiste klippt nicht mehr.** Der rechtsbündige Versions-Slot wird ausgeblendet wenn die Chat-Window-Breite
-  abzüglich Versions-Text unter 200 px fällt — vorher überlappte er die vier linken Slots. Ab ausreichender Breite
-  taucht der Slot wieder auf
- **Intern:** `FontManager` fällt auf System-Font zurück wenn die eingebettete Hellion-Font-Resource fehlt
-  (Broken-csproj-Pfad, nie ein Produktions-Build), plus expliziter Session-Only-Invariant-Kommentar für Auto-Tell-Tabs
-  in `Plugin.cs:167-168` mit einem TempTabCounter-Init-Pin in der Build-Suite. Kein Schema-Bump, keine Migration

-
-Wartungs-Patch ohne User-sichtbare Änderungen. Saubere Code-Basis als Vorbereitung auf das v1.4.7-Backlog-Cleanup, plus
-zwei geerbte Bugfixes aus dem ChatTwo-Upstream `f35b7d3`.
-
- **preflight.sh härter**: csharpier-Reflow-Check (Block E) und markdownlint (Block F) laufen jetzt im Pre-Push-Gate,
-  statt erst beim Pre-Merge-Review aufzufallen.
- **FontManager-Fallback robuster**: Atlas-Toolkit-Throws aus kaputten Font-Configs (IO, InvalidOperation,
-  ArgumentException) fallen jetzt zuverlässig auf NotoSansCjkRegular, statt den Atlas-Build mitzureißen. Der
-  Exception-Typ wird im Log mitgegeben für die Diagnose.
- **URL-Validation beim Plugin-Load**: BrandingLinks (5 URLs) und IntegrationLinks (2 URLs) werden via
-  `[ModuleInitializer]` geprüft. Ein Tippfehler bei einer künftigen URL-Rotation wirft jetzt sofort beim Plugin-Load,
-  statt still beim Klick zu scheitern.
- **Cherry-Pick aus ChatTwo `f35b7d3`** — Memory-Leak in `Chat.SetChannel`: der native `Utf8String` wird jetzt auch dann
-  freigegeben, wenn der Linkshell-Check den Channel ablehnt (vorher gefangen im early-return).
- **Cherry-Pick aus ChatTwo `f35b7d3`** — `Tab.Clone()` Deep-cloned jetzt `UsedChannel` und `TellTarget`. Vorher
-  Reference-Share-Bug: PopOut- und Temp-Tabs mutierten sich gegenseitig.
- **Aktive-Tab-Underline pixel-perfect bei DPI-Scaling**: Die Underline-Pill skaliert jetzt mit
-  `ImGuiHelpers.GlobalScale` und rundet die DrawList-Koordinaten auf physische Pixel. Kein Sub-Pixel-Blur mehr auf
-  125/150%-Setups.
- **IconButton-Width-Fix**: der manuelle `width - 2 * CellPadding.X`-Subtract verlor den HUD-Scale (Padding skaliert,
-  der raw int nicht). Gemessene Breite läuft jetzt unverändert durch.
- **Test-Isolation für MessageStore**: `Dalamud.Utility.Util`-Surface (IsWine, OpenLink) läuft jetzt durch eine
-  `IPlatformUtil`-Indirektion. MessageStores `IsWine`-Probe ist isoliert testbar in der Build-Suite. Plus:
-  HellionStyle-ChildBgAlpha als Pure-Helper extrahiert, Plugin.SaveConfig kopiert nur Session-Tabs statt der ganzen
-  Tab-Liste, SettingsOverview cached den DrawList einmal pro Frame.
- **Built-in-Theme-Roster**: Crystal Nocturne (Royal Sapphire + Electric Magenta auf Obsidian, von CRYSTALLITE) ersetzt
-  Moonlit Bloom. User mit Moonlit Bloom als aktivem Theme fallen beim ersten Plugin-Load auf Hellion Arctic zurück.

-
-Achter Sub-Patch der v1.4.x Polish-Sweep-Serie. Erstes User-sichtbares Feature-Bundle seit v1.4.5 — angepinnte Tell-Tabs
-die Relog überleben, opt-in Honorific-Glow, plus eine konfigurierbare Sidebar.
-
- **TempTell anpinnen**: Rechtsklick auf einen TempTell-Tab in der Sidebar → „Tab anpinnen". Angepinnte Tabs überleben
-  Plugin-Reload und Char-Logout, behalten ihre Konversations-Historie (wird beim Rehydrate aus dem MessageStore
-  nachgeladen) und bleiben an die gleiche /tell-Person gebunden. Hard-Cap 5 angepinnte Tabs in einem separaten Pool —
-  die normalen Auto-Tell-Tabs (15er Cap) sind davon entkoppelt, Gesamt-Decke 20. Die Sidebar gruppiert angepinnte Tabs
-  in einer eigenen „Angepinnt"-Sektion mit eigenem Trenner.
- **Honorific Glow-Outline**: rendert jetzt eine 8-Richtungs-DrawList-Outline wenn der Honorific-Titel eine Glow-Farbe
-  trägt. Opt-in via **Settings → Integrationen → Glow-Outline rendern (Honorific)** (Default OFF). Gradient (Color3 /
-  GradientColourSet / Wave / Pulse) wird geparst und im DTO weitergereicht, rendert aktuell aber statisch als
-  Primärfarbe — der volle Gradient-Port (Animations-Algorithmus + Pride-Palette) kommt als eigener Cycle nach.
- **Sidebar-Breite konfigurierbar**: in **Theme & Layout** ein Slider 44–160 px. Default bleibt 44 px (icon-only), aber
-  breiter machen damit Sektion-Header wie „Aktive Tells (3)" oder „Angepinnt (2)" nicht abgeschnitten werden.
- **Settings-Save Channel-Fix**: ein Save mit aktivem Party- oder Linkshell-Tab konnte den Chat-Input zurück auf
-  `/tell <angepinnte Person>` springen lassen. `Configuration.UpdateFrom` bewahrt jetzt den Runtime-`CurrentChannel`
-  über den persistent-Tab-Merge hinweg, und `TabSwitched` deep-cloned den Seed-Channel statt sich den `UsedChannel` mit
-  dem vorigen Tab zu teilen.
- **Internal**: `IPluginLogProxy`-Indirektion vor Dalamud's `IPluginLog` über alle ~91 `Plugin.Log`-Call-Sites. Damit
-  läuft `MessageStore.Migrate0` voll-isoliert in xUnit (F12.1-Lücke aus v1.4.6 geschlossen). Plus: TempTab-Counter als
-  abgeleitete Property statt gecachtes Interlocked-Feld — die neuen Pin/Unpin-Übergänge sind Cold-Path, kein
-  Lock-Free-Vorteil mehr. Migration v16 → v17 ist rein additiv (neues `Tab.IsPinned`-Bool, Default false).

- DbViewer Volltext-Suche: optionaler FTS5-Index über die ganze Chat-Historie.
-  Wird beim ersten v1.4.8-Start asynchron im Hintergrund gebaut, Progress als
-  Toast. Lokale Page-Suche bleibt Default. Such-Eingaben werden als exakte
-  Wortfolge gematcht; mehrere Wörter werden nur gefunden, wenn sie zusammen
-  und in der Reihenfolge stehen. Wer rohe FTS5-MATCH-Syntax nutzen will, setzt
-  eigene Anführungszeichen um den Suchbegriff.
- Custom-Theme-Files laden sich beim Speichern automatisch neu, wenn das Theme
-  aktiv ist. Kein Picker-Klick mehr nötig.
- Retention-Sweep blockt nicht mehr den Framework-Thread. Der Mini-Hitch von
-  ~194ms pro Sweep ist weg.
- Statusleiste rendert sauber bei Windows-Skalierung über 100%.
- Receive-Suppressed-Tells-Routing wurde in diesem Cycle untersucht und auf
-  v1.5.x verschoben: wenn andere Plugins Tells via CheckMessageHandled
-  unterdrücken, überspringt FFXIVs Chat-Pipeline den RaptureLogModule-Resolver
-  und HellionChats Tab-Routing verliert den Tell-Partner. Der Fix liegt
-  architektonisch neben dem geplanten Ad-Block-Hook-Layer und kommt dort mit.

-
- 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.
- Migration v17 unverändert: kein Schema-Bump, kein

 description: |-
-    Chat replacement for FINAL FANTASY XIV with privacy controls built around
-    EU, US and JP data-protection rules.
+    Hellion Chat is a privacy-focused chat replacement for FINAL FANTASY XIV
+    based on the Chat 2 codebase (EUPL-1.2). One feature is intentionally
+    removed (the optional webinterface) and a stack of privacy controls is
+    added on top. Tabs, channel filters, RGB colours, emotes, screenshot
+    mode, IPC integration and the chat replacement window itself work the
+    same. The webinterface is intentionally not part of Hellion Chat because
+    it serves a different use case from the smaller default footprint this
+    plugin is built around.

-    By default only your own conversations are stored. Public chat, NPC
-    dialogue and system messages stay out of the database unless you opt in.
-    Retention windows are configurable per channel, history can be wiped
-    retroactively, and everything can be exported on demand.
+    On top of that, Hellion Chat adds privacy and data-handling controls
+    designed to align with the modern data protection rules that apply
+    across the EU, the United States and Japan. By default only your own
+    conversations are stored; messages from strangers, NPCs and system
+    spam stay out of the database. Retention windows are configurable per
+    channel, history can be wiped retroactively, and stored data can be
+    exported on demand.
+
+    Key privacy and data-handling features:

-    Features:
    - Channel whitelist with a Privacy-First default
    - Per-channel retention with a daily background sweep
-    - Retroactive cleanup (Ctrl+Shift confirm)
+    - Retroactive cleanup with a Ctrl+Shift confirm
    - Export to Markdown, JSON or CSV
-    - First-run wizard with three preset profiles
-    - Bilingual UI (EN/DE) with live language switching
-    - Own config and database — no shared state with other plugins
+    - First-run wizard with three preset profiles (Privacy-First, Casual,
+      Full History)
+    - Bilingual UI (English and German) with live language switching
+    - Independent plugin state — own config file and database directory,
+      so Hellion Chat does not share state with upstream Chat 2

-    Based on Chat 2 by Infi and Anna (EUPL-1.2).
-    Support: https://discord.gg/X9V7Kcv5gR
+    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.
+
+    v1.4.3 — Plugin-Load Async-Init plus Repo-Cutover. Plugin
+    migrated to Dalamud's IAsyncDalamudPlugin so the heavy work
+    (migrations, service allocations, window construction, hook
+    subscription) runs in LoadAsync without blocking Dalamud's
+    UI. Schema-gate replaces the v9 → v16 migration chain;
+    configs on schema v16+ load directly. Custom-repo URL moves
+    to gitea.hellion-forge.cloud, the GitHub repo stays as a
+    frozen v1.4.2 snapshot.

-    **v1.5.0 — DI Foundation and Service Refactor (2026-05-17)**
+    **Hellion Chat 1.4.3 — Plugin-Load Async-Init + Repo-Cutover (2026-05-08)**

-    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.
+    Plugin lifecycle migrated to Dalamud's `IAsyncDalamudPlugin`
+    API. The constructor now does only the bootstrap-essentials
+    (config load, language init, conflict detection); migrations,
+    service allocations, window construction and hook subscription
+    move to LoadAsync. Dalamud can keep its UI responsive while the
+    heavy work runs.

-    What changes under the hood:
+    - IAsyncDalamudPlugin two-phase load with per-line CaptureFailure
+      in DisposeAsync (mirrors LightlessSync's pattern); idempotency
+      guard protects against reload races
+    - Schema-gate replaces the v9 → v16 migration chain. Configs
+      on schema v16+ load directly; older configs trigger an
+      "install v1.4.2 first" error so the historic migration
+      path stays intact
+    - AutoTranslate.PreloadCache moved off the load path. First
+      use may have a sub-second hitch instead of every-load; the
+      upstream chose differently, we accept first-use latency
+    - FontManager.BuildFonts is called sync at the start of
+      LoadAsync; Dalamud rebuilds the font atlas on its own
+      pipeline so the custom Hellion-Exo2 font appears with a
+      brief font-pop after load (matches ChatTwo's behaviour)
+    - Custom-repo URL moved to gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/
+      JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat. GitHub repo stays as a
+      frozen v1.4.2 snapshot; new releases ship from Gitea.
+      Existing testers need to update the custom-repo URL once
+    - Plugin-load time in this release sits at ~3.7 s median
+      (5 reloads), comparable to v1.4.2. Async migration is
+      foundational for v1.4.4 Lazy-Init optimisations rather
+      than an immediate user-perceived win

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

-    - 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.
+    **Hellion Chat 1.4.2 — ChatLog Frame-Hot-Path**

-    Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
+    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.

+
+    **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.

-    **v1.4.10 — Symbol-Picker and Tell-History Fix (2026-05-16)**
-
-    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.
-
-    - 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).

-
-    **v1.4.9 — Plugin-Load Render Polish (2026-05-15)**
-
-    Tenth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. First-frame
-    render cost drops from ~127 ms median to ~76 ms median,
-    comfortably under Dalamud's 100 ms HITCH warning threshold.
-
-    - First-frame defer: six non-essential rendering sections inside
-      ChatLogWindow skip their first Draw and run one frame later
-      (bottom status bar, channel-name SeString chunks, window bounds
-      check, v0.6.1 hint banner, autocomplete, input-preview
-      calculation). User-visible delay is ~17 ms at 60 fps, hidden
-      inside the post-reload font-atlas build window.
-    - Slash-command centralisation: /hellion, /hellionView,
-      /hellionSeString and /hellionDebugger are registered in
-      LoadAsync instead of inside the corresponding window
-      constructors. The plugin-manager Open and configuration buttons
-      hang on the same path.
-    - Plugin-load profiling logs stay on at Information level
-      (MessageStore connect/migrate, FilterAllTabs, auto-translate
-      warmup) as a regression tripwire — a future load past 100 ms
-      will show up in /xllog without a Debug filter.
-    - ChatTwo IPC compatibility layer: HellionChat now mirrors
-      ChatTwo's full IPC surface (GetChatInputState,
-      ChatInputStateChanged, Register, Unregister, Available,
-      Invoke) under the ChatTwo.* namespace in addition to our
-      existing HellionChat.* provider gates. Third-party
-      integrations that historically only subscribe to ChatTwo's
-      IPC — for example Artisan's and AllaganTools' context-menu
-      hooks — keep working without requiring a code change on their
-      side. Conflict detection prevents ChatTwo from loading in
-      parallel with HellionChat, so there is no slot-collision risk
-      at runtime.
-    - Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
-
-    Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
-
-    ---
-
-    **v1.4.8 — Hook-Layer and Polish Quick-Wins (2026-05-14)**
-
-    Ninth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. Hook-layer
-    cluster (DbViewer FTS5 full-text search, ad-block foundation
-    investigation) plus three polish quick-wins.
-
-    - DbViewer full-text search: optional FTS5 index across the full
-      chat history. Built asynchronously on first load after the
-      update with a progress toast. The local page-filter remains
-      available as the default mode. Queries match as exact phrases
-      -- multi-word terms must appear together in order; advanced
-      users can opt into raw FTS5 MATCH syntax by wrapping their own
-      double-quotes.
-    - Custom theme files now auto-reload when edited while the theme
-      is active -- no need to re-click the theme in the picker.
-    - Retention sweep no longer blocks the framework thread, removing
-      the ~194ms mini-hitch per sweep.
-    - Status bar renders correctly at Windows display scaling > 100%.
-    - Receive-suppressed-tells routing investigated this cycle and
-      postponed to v1.5.x: when other plugins suppress tells via
-      CheckMessageHandled, the FFXIV chat pipeline skips the
-      RaptureLogModule.AddMsgSourceEntry path so HellionChat's
-      ContentIdResolverHook does not fire and tell-partner
-      identification breaks. The fix belongs next to the planned
-      ad-block hook layer where the same patch surface comes up.
-    - Internal: messages.Id is declared BLOB but stored as TEXT
-      (Microsoft.Data.Sqlite Guid binding). FTS bulk insert and
-      LoadByGuids match the TEXT storage form on both sides.
-      Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
-
-    Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
