Require patched Node.js releases and refresh affected application and build dependencies.
Align installation requirements, startup checks, and release workflows with the security baseline.
Move database work off the main thread on Node.js 24 and improve message handling and runtime diagnostics.
Preserve migration, restart, and concurrency coverage with the async SQLite driver.
Make line endings deterministic across macOS, Windows, and Linux while preserving the native checkout format required by Windows launchers.
Pin the tested application runtime and Node type baseline, add a shared startup preflight, and keep independently published packages on their existing compatibility ranges.
Align local scripts, pull request validation, complete package builds, dependency metadata, and contributor documentation around the same Node and pnpm contract. The root test command now covers every tested workspace package while a focused Core command remains available for local iteration.
Start each account as soon as its message storage is ready, then continue older history updates without delaying normal account availability. Keep already started accounts online when maintenance needs to be retried.
Handle preparation failures, stale completions, early exits, logout, and shutdown consistently. Add lifecycle coverage for startup ordering, automatic retries, cancellation, and account availability.
Enforce a global log quota with configurable retention and observable degradation. Add authenticated storage reporting and safe cleanup controls to the settings UI. Protect active stream transfers and isolate parallel test resources.
