# Changelog — Hellion Chat All user-facing changes to Hellion Chat. Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/), version numbers follow [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/). Detailed release notes per version are available directly on the [Gitea Release page](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases) and in the plugin changelog block (`HellionChat/HellionChat.yaml` → `changelog:`). This file summarises releases as an overview and links to the release pages for details. --- ## Hellion Chat 1.4.7 — Backlog Cleanup and Mid-Features (2026-05-13) 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, a configurable sidebar, plus a Settings-Save channel-preservation fix surfaced during smoke testing. - TempTell Pin: right-click a TempTell tab in the sidebar and choose "Pin Tab" / "Tab anpinnen". Pinned tabs survive plugin reload and character logout, keep their conversation history (loaded on demand from the message store on rehydrate), 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. The sidebar groups pinned tabs into their own section with a divider header - Honorific glow outlines now render via an 8-direction DrawList pre-pass when the title carries a Glow colour. Opt-in via **Settings → Integrations → Render glow outlines (Honorific)** (default off). Honorific's gradient surface (`Color3`, `GradientColourSet`, `GradientAnimationStyle`) is parsed and stashed for a later cycle but renders as the primary colour until then — the v1.4.7 DTO already mirrors all four extra fields so the JSON roundtrip doesn't silent-drop them - Sidebar width configurable in **Theme & Layout** (44–160 px, default 44 stays icon-only). The icon button stretches with the configured width so a widened sidebar looks intentional, not a 36 px icon floating in empty space - `Configuration.UpdateFrom` now preserves the runtime `CurrentChannel` across the persistent-tab merge alongside `Messages` and `LastSendUnread`. `TabSwitched` deep-clones the seeded channel from the previous tab instead of sharing the same `UsedChannel` instance. Together these fix a regression where Settings-Save on a Party or Linkshell tab popped the chat input back to `/tell ` on the next interaction - `Util/ImGuiUtil.cs` `DrawArrows` IconButton id uses `(id + 1).ToString()` with explicit parentheses instead of the operator-precedence quirk `id + 1.ToString()` (which resolved to `id.ToString() + "1"`). Single live caller is `Ui/DbViewer.cs:227` page-navigation - 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. Production wrapper `DalamudPluginLogProxy` and Build-Suite `FakePluginLogProxy` mirror the full `IPluginLog` surface (`Verbose`/`Debug`/`Information`/`Info`/`Warning`/`Error`/`Fatal`) with single-string, `Exception+string`, and `params object[]` overloads - Internal: TempTab counter switched from an `Interlocked` cached field to a derived `Tabs.Count(predicate)`. Pin-state transitions (TryPin / Unpin / Promote) are cold-path and don't need lock-free reads; counter mutation surface dropped from 5 to 0 sites. Build-Suite floor 688 → 710 (+22) - Schema bump v16 → v17 is additive: new `Tab.IsPinned` bool, default false. Existing v16 configs load cleanly and get their `Version` stamp bumped after the gate check Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## Hellion Chat 1.4.6 — Code Hygiene and Refactor (2026-05-12) Maintenance patch. No user-visible behaviour changes; tightens the development feedback loop, fixes two upstream-inherited bugs from ChatTwo `f35b7d3`, and prepares the code for the v1.4.7 backlog cleanup. - `scripts/preflight.sh` gains Block E (`dotnet csharpier check`) and Block F (`markdownlint-cli2`) so reflow drift and markdown violations are caught at the pre-push gate. `.markdownlint.json` adds `MD024 siblings_only` and disables `MD036` so the bilingual forge-post bold-emphasis headings pass linting; the `.claude/` directory is excluded from the scan - `FontManager.AddFontWithFallback` catch-filter now covers `InvalidOperationException` and `ArgumentException` on top of the existing IO triad. The warning log carries the exception type name, so the diagnostic path knows which class of atlas-toolkit throw triggered the NotoSansCjkRegular fallback - `BrandingLinks` (5 URLs) and `Integrations/IntegrationLinks` (2 URLs) validate themselves on first module load via `[ModuleInitializer]` + a shared `UrlValidation.ValidateAll` helper. A malformed URL now throws `InvalidOperationException` at plugin load with the source class and the broken URL in the message - Cherry-picked from ChatTwo upstream `f35b7d3`: `Chat.SetChannel` no longer leaks the native `Utf8String` when the linkshell check rejects the channel. The validity check is now wrapped around the `ChangeChatChannel` call instead of short-circuiting before `Dtor`. `ValidAnyLinkshell` is renamed to `IsChannelOrExistingLinkshell` and the `ChatLogWindow` call-site follows the rename - Cherry-picked from ChatTwo upstream `f35b7d3`: `Tab.Clone` now deep-clones `UsedChannel` and `TellTarget`. The old `CurrentChannel = CurrentChannel` was a reference copy, so PopOut and Temp tabs mutated each other's channel state (incl. tell target). `TellTarget.From(t)` static factory is replaced with an instance `Clone()`; `UsedChannel.Clone()` is new and runs deep-clone on both TellTarget references - `ChatLogWindow` active-tab underline pill now scales with `ImGuiHelpers.GlobalScale` and rounds its DrawList coordinates to physical pixels via `MathF.Round`, so the 2 px line stays crisp on 125 % and 150 % DPI setups instead of bleeding into a sub-pixel blur - `ImGuiUtil.IconButton` width parameter no longer subtracts HUD-scaled `CellPadding.X * 2` from the raw `int` width. `ImGui.Button` handles its own frame padding internally, so the measured `buttonWidth` now passes through verbatim (inspired-by upstream `f35b7d3`, but our two call-sites need the parameter, so the param itself stays) - Internal: `HellionStyle` ChildBgAlpha threshold logic extracted to `HellionStyleHelpers.ResolveChildBgAlpha` with a build-suite mirror test that pins the 0.999f cutoff. `Plugin.SaveConfig` clones only the temp-tab subset in the pre-serialization snapshot instead of the full tab list. `SettingsOverview` caches `ImGui.GetWindowDrawList()` once per frame and passes the pointer down to `DrawCard` - Internal: `Dalamud.Utility.Util` static surface (`IsWine`, `OpenLink`) routed through a new `IPlatformUtil` indirection. `MessageStore`'s `IsWine` probe is now reachable from the xUnit AppDomain via a `FakePlatformUtil` fixture (full isolated MessageStore construction still pending — `Plugin.Log.Information` in `Migrate0` is a separate Dalamud-static surface, slated for v1.4.7) - Built-in themes: Crystal Nocturne (royal sapphire and electric magenta over obsidian, by CRYSTALLITE) replaces Moonlit Bloom in the built-in roster. Users who had Moonlit Bloom selected fall back to the default Hellion Arctic on the first plugin load; an existing custom JSON copy of Moonlit Bloom under `pluginConfigs/HellionChat/themes/` keeps working unchanged Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## Hellion Chat 1.4.5 — UX and Robustness (2026-05-12) Sixth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. User-visible robustness fixes plus two doc/test polish items from the audit backlog. No schema bump, no migration. - `ChatLogWindow.Draw` now surfaces a one-shot warning notification when the draw path throws. The stack trace still goes to `/xllog` via `Plugin.Log.Error`; the notification is suppressed for the rest of the plugin session so a recurring failure can't spam the notification stack frame-by-frame. Pattern-match to the existing `Plugin.cs:505-516` migration-blocker notification - `FirstRunWizard` splits accept from close. `OnClose` no longer silently sets `FirstRunCompleted`, so closing the X leaves the wizard pending and it reopens on the next plugin load. A new footer "Later — keep defaults" button is the explicit path to dismiss without picking a profile. Bilingual strings (EN + DE) plus a tooltip - `InputHistoryService.Reset` is wired into `Plugin.DisposeAsync` alongside the existing pure-memory cleanups. Static state used to survive a plugin reload — the next load now starts with an empty history - `FontManager.GetHellionFontBytes` becomes `TryGetHellionFontBytes` with a nullable return. On miss (broken csproj, hand-rolled dev build) the caller falls back to the system-font path that `UseHellionFont=false` already uses, plus a `Plugin.Log.Warning`. The whole UiBuilder no longer throws if the embedded font resource is absent - `Plugin.cs:167-168` gets a 4-line reasoning comment around the session-only `RemoveAll(IsTempTab)`: tells are usually privacy-filtered, resurrecting an empty crashed-session tab would trigger DB reconstruction on the next load. `TempTabCounter.InitFromList` mirrors the post-strip semantic in the Build-Suite with a pinning test - `StatusBar.cs` drops the version slot when the chat window's content width minus the version text is below 200 px. The right-aligned version used to clip into the four left-side slots in narrow windows Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## Hellion Chat 1.4.4 — Threading and IPC Safety Polish (2026-05-12) Fifth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. Threading assumptions are documented per-method, a hot-path lock falls away in `AutoTellTabsService`, IPC-cleanup failures become visible, and the privacy filter now speaks up when an unknown ChatType shows up. - `AutoTellTabsService.ActiveTempTabCount` switches from a lock-protected LINQ `Count` to an `Interlocked` counter kept in sync with `Config.Tabs` from inside the existing mutation paths. `Initialize()` seeds the counter from the persisted Tabs list, and `SaveConfig`'s snapshot-restore path calls a new `ResyncTempTabCounter()` so the mid-step `RemoveAll` doesn't leave the counter drifting. Pure-helper test mirror lives in the Build-Suite repo - `HonorificService` per-method threading banners replace the block comment at the bottom of the file. Each IPC callback (`TryInitialPull`, `OnTitleChanged`, `OnReady`, `OnDisposing`, `TryUnsubscribe`) and the `CurrentTitle` field carry a one-line `// Thread:` annotation so the framework-thread invariant is visible at the call site - `TryUnsubscribe` log-level upgraded from `Debug` to `Warning`. A silent unsubscribe failure leaks a live subscription across plugin reloads, which is exactly the kind of issue that should not be at Debug - `AutoTranslate.PreloadCache` thread now has `IsBackground = true` and a thread name. Without `IsBackground` the warmup blocks plugin unload (typically 100-300 ms). Pattern-match to `MessageManager` (F6.1) and `Plugin.RetentionSweep` (F9.3), both since v1.4.0 - `Configuration.IsAllowedForStorage` adds a one-line `Plugin.Log.Warning` for the first occurrence of any ChatType that isn't in `PrivacyPersistChannels`. Dedup via a `NonSerialized` `HashSet`, so the warning fires once per runtime — not once per frame, not once per install. Failsafe routing through `PrivacyPersistUnknownChannels` is unchanged - `PrivacyPersistUnknownChannels` field default flipped from `false` to `true` for new installs via a constant in `PrivacyDefaults`. Existing configs keep their explicit choice — the deserializer overrides the initializer. No schema bump, no migration, no first-run banner Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## Hellion Chat 1.4.3 — Plugin-Load Async-Init + Repo-Cutover (2026-05-08) 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. - `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 Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## 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 — 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. Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## 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 Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## 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/ Modding & support: join Hellion Forge — Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2). --- ## v1.2.3 — Theme Expansion (2026-05-06) ### Added - Four new built-in themes: - **Night Blue** — Royal Blue on deep marine, cool tech-dashboard mood - **Indigo Violet** — Royal Violet on deep indigo with a turquoise-mint counter (aurora glitter feel) - **Forge Merchantman** — Patina bronze on workshop slate with warm amber counter (Hellion Forge identity) - **Hellion Spectrum** — Deuteran/Protan-safe channel colours using Wong/Okabe-Ito palette tones; channel identity (Tell pink, Yell yellow, Shout orange, Party blue, FC green) preserved while keeping every channel separable under red-green colour vision deficiency - Built-in theme catalogue grown from five to nine ### Notes - No engine changes, no settings touched, no migration - Default theme unchanged (Hellion Arctic). Existing custom themes keep working. - Hellion Spectrum covers the ~99 % of CVD cases that are red-green; a Tritan-safe variant could follow in a later cycle if there is demand. --- ## v1.2.1 — Settings Cleanup (2026-05-06) ### Changed - Settings cards re-sorted thematically: 9 cards remain, each card has one clear job and a one-line subtitle. - **Theme & Layout** (new) collects the theme picker, window frame style (title bar, sidebar, hide button, pop-out title bar) and the timestamp style options. - **Fonts & Colours** (new) houses font choice, font size and per-channel chat colours. - **Data Management** (new) collects retention windows, cleanup, export, the database viewer and the shift-click advanced tools. - **Privacy** is now focused on the privacy filter alone. - **Chat** absorbs the Auto-Tell-Tabs history-preload slider that used to live under Privacy. - **General** groups the keybind mode under Input. ### Removed - Legacy "Style override" option and the unused style-name field — both obsolete since the v1.1.0 themes engine. - Legacy `WindowAlpha` slider — if you had it set, the value is auto-migrated to Theme & Layout → Window Style → Window Transparency. - Unused `ShowThemeQuickPicker` schema field. ### Migration - v15 → v16 with backup at `pluginConfigs/HellionChat.json.pre-v16-backup`. - All other settings preserved unchanged. - One-time toast on first start if Style override was previously active. --- ## v1.2.0 — Layout Refresh (2026-05-05) ### Added - Sidebar tab modernization: icon-only at fixed 44 px, tooltip on hover, vertical accent pill for active tab - Top tabs: accent underline pill replaces background fill on active tab - Per-tab custom icons in Settings → Tabs (15-glyph FontAwesome picker) - Bottom status bar (22 px): channel indicator, privacy badge, counters, tells, version — updates 1×/sec - Card rows as default message render: sender header in channel color, subtle border between cards - Compact-Density toggle in Appearance: switches back to single-line `[HH:mm] Sender: Text` layout - Auto-Tell tabs: per-partner hashed icon (7-glyph pool: envelope/star/heart/bell/bookmark/flag/fire) plus hashed color (12-color palette) — 84 distinct icon+color combinations - Unread indicator: pulsing red dot in the top-right corner of any sidebar tab icon with unread messages, 2-second sine-wave pulse, respects `Configuration.ReduceMotion` ### Changed - Migration v14 → v15: deprecated Configuration fields `HellionThemeEnabled` and `HellionThemeWindowOpacity` removed - Appearance settings cleaned: legacy theme-engine bindings replaced by Themes tab (introduced in v1.1.0) ### Fixed - Settings save no longer wipes chat history by default — the heavy `ClearAllTabs + FilterAllTabsAsync` cycle now only runs when a filter-relevant setting actually changed (Privacy filter, persisted channels, per-tab channel selection). Cosmetic changes keep the in-session chat intact - Identifier-based `MessageList` restore in `Configuration.UpdateFrom` plus TempTab skip in `ClearAllTabs`/`FilterAllTabs` ensure persistent tabs and Auto-Tell tabs both survive the save - Sidebar buttons now align vertically with the first message row (top padding mirrors the chat header toolbar height) - Sidebar child window no longer paints the top padding area with its frame background - Status bar version slot (`vX.Y.Z · Hellion`) no longer clips its rightmost character ### Notes - Polish phase (animations, theme crossfade, header quick-picker) follows in v1.3.0 - Top-Tab icon prefixes were considered but dropped: Dalamud's default font atlas does not include FontAwesome codepoints, so mixed-font in a single TabItem label renders as tofu. Underline pill alone is the v1.2.0 visual treatment for top tabs. Resolution would require Font-Atlas merge at FontManager level — out of scope. --- ## [1.1.0] — 2026-05-05 — Theme Foundation First major UI cycle after v1.0.0. Theme engine, five built-in themes, custom themes via JSON, settings card grid. ### Added - **Theme engine** with five built-in themes: Hellion Arctic (default), Chat 2 Classic, Event Horizon, Moonlit Bloom, Mint Grove. - **Settings → Themes** with mini mockup preview per theme. Clicking a card instantly switches the entire plugin (chat, settings, pop-outs). - **Custom themes via JSON** in `pluginConfigs/HellionChat/themes/`. On first start, `example-theme.json` is placed there as a template. - **Optional theme chat channel colours**: themes can ship their own channel colours. On switch, a banner appears with _Apply / Keep current_ — never applied automatically. - **Settings card grid**: new overview on open, clicking a card navigates into the section's detail view. Breadcrumb + ESC navigate back. - **`docs/THEME-AUTHORING.md`** as a guide for writing custom themes, with Hellion Forge branding. ### Changed - **Plugin icon** updated to Hellion Forge hammer (previously a ChatTwo derivative). - **Settings detail view** uses the full width — the second tab list on the left is gone because the card overview handles navigation. - **`HellionStyle.PushGlobal`** is now theme-driven (`PushGlobal(theme, opacity)`) instead of const-palette-driven. - **Configuration v13 → v14**: all users land on `hellion-arctic`. Those who prefer the upstream look can select `chat2-classic` in Settings → Themes. ### Deprecated - `Configuration.HellionThemeEnabled` and `HellionThemeWindowOpacity` remain readable for one release as a safety net but are no longer evaluated. Removal planned for v1.2.0. ### Security - Custom theme JSON loader validates `schemaVersion`, required fields and hex format. Invalid themes are skipped with a warning; the plugin continues loading with built-ins. ### Internal - 51 local unit tests (theme records, registry, JSON round-trip, sanity per built-in theme). Tests are gitignored. --- ## [1.0.3] — 2026-05-04 — Polish Patch Four small polish items from the backlog bundled together: - **Hide on New Game+ menu**: optional global toggle that hides Hellion Chat (and all other plugin windows such as Settings, DB Viewer, pop-outs) while the NG+ menu is open. Settings → Window → Frame, default off. Skips the entire `WindowSystem.Draw()` path analogous to the existing LoadingScreens pattern. - **Channel selector colouring**: optional tinting of the channel-select button (comment icon) next to the input field in the current channel colour. Settings → Appearance → Chat Colours, default on. Consistent with the existing input text colouring; ExtraChat override is carried over. - **(De)buff icon aspect-ratio fix**: `PayloadHandler.InlineIcon` was squashing all hover icons to 32×32. Status icons with non-square dimensions (debuffs with an arrow indicator) are now shrunk aspect-preserving. Standalone float-math implementation with zero-size guard instead of a cherry-pick from the open ChatTwo PR #157 (which had an int-division trap). - **HideState logging sweep**: all HideState transitions (Battle/Cutscene/User/Override plus pop-out mirroring) log at verbose level. Off by default; enable via `/xllog set HellionChat verbose` for bug-report diagnostics. [Release Notes 1.0.3](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v1.0.3) --- ## [1.0.1] — 2026-05-04 — Window Position Recovery Fixes an off-screen-window scenario the user could end up in after a monitor disconnect or display layout change between sessions. An automatic one-shot bounds check on the first draw after plugin load snaps the window back into the visible viewport, and a new "Reset Window Position" button in Settings → Window → Frame serves as the manual escape hatch for edge cases. Bundled housekeeping since v1.0.0: documentation restructured into `docs/`, stale ChatTwo/\* paths in repo configs cleaned up, Pidgin parser library bumped from 3.3.0 to 3.5.1, GitHub Actions bumps for `actions/setup-dotnet` (4 → 5) and `github/codeql-action` (3 → 4). [Release Notes 1.0.1](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v1.0.1) --- ## [1.0.0] — 2026-05-03 — Standalone Major Release First fully independent release. Code namespace, IPC channels and source tree structure consolidated under `HellionChat.*`. Plugin refuses to start alongside an active upstream Chat 2 (bilingual conflict message). SQLite native pinned to 3.50.3 (CVE-2025-6965, CVE-2025-7709). Tab layout default for new installs and users on config version 12 or older restructured (5 thematic tabs instead of 6+ kitchen-sink). Sweep of critical and major findings from the codebase audit incorporated. [Release Notes 1.0.0](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v1.0.0) --- ## [0.6.1] — 2026-05-03 — Pop-Out Discoverability & /tell Auto-Pop-Out Pop-out button visible in the chat header, one-time hint banner for the pop-out feature. New setting "Open new /tell tabs directly as pop-out". Pop-out input is now active by default. Bug fixes: ghost windows on LRU-drop / logout, dead zone below the input bar when the hint banner is active. [Release Notes 0.6.1](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v0.6.1) --- ## [0.6.0] — 2026-05-03 — UX Polish: Pop-Out Input + Colour Presets Two opt-in UX features. Pop-out windows optionally get a compact input bar with a channel-coloured icon button and an independent text buffer per pop-out. Seven built-in colour presets (Classic, High Contrast, Pastel, Dark Mode Tuned, Hellion, Night Blue, Indigo Violet) for one-click apply. Configuration migration v10 → v11. [Release Notes 0.6.0](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v0.6.0) --- ## [0.5.4] — 2026-05-02 — WrapText Hardening `ImGuiUtil.WrapText` rewritten from pointer arithmetic to Span- and index-based control flow. Permanently closes the recurring CodeQL critical alert "unvalidated local pointer arithmetic". No user-visible behaviour change — word-wrap output is byte-identical to 0.5.3. [Release Notes 0.5.4](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v0.5.4) --- ## [0.5.3] — 2026-05-02 — Pointer Arithmetic Hardening First attempt at closing the CodeQL critical alert in `ImGuiUtil.WrapText`. Encoded byte buffer length is validated via `GetByteCount` before pointer arithmetic. [Release Notes 0.5.3](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/tag/v0.5.3) --- ## Earlier Versions Releases before 0.5.3 (bootstrap phase 0.1.0 to 0.5.2) are available directly on the Gitea release stream: [All Releases](https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases) --- ## Maintenance Note The source of truth for the user-facing changelog is the `changelog:` block in `HellionChat/HellionChat.yaml`. `repo.json` and the GitHub release body are fed from there. This file (`docs/CHANGELOG.md`) is a curated summary with links to the release pages and is updated manually on each version bump.
