Remove reduced yt-dlp info-json reuse so metadata fallback downloads re-extract from the original URL instead of crashing on incomplete extractor metadata.
Update README and changelog for the 1.0.2 desktop release and point the bundled extension submodule at Firelink Companion 2.0.2.
Thread extension-provided headers and cookies into Firelink media metadata loading so authenticated page fetches show the correct formats.
Include those auth inputs in both metadata and yt-dlp info-json cache keys to prevent cross-session collisions, and advance the Firefox extension submodule to the published media-fetch commit.
Link Chrome and Chromium users to the manual load-unpacked instructions from the README and Settings > Integrations.
Advance the bundled extension submodule to the Chromium package build commit.
Update yt-dlp to 2026.07.04 and refresh the bundled macOS runtime plus engine locks.
Route every non-media download through aria2 by removing the native HTTP fallback path, native GID handling, and the old direct-download harness.
Retry transient aria2 startup/RPC failures before failing, then show the real last error in the download row and Properties modal so Windows failures are diagnosable instead of silent.
Refresh docs and tests around the aria2-only file-download contract, and advance the Firefox extension submodule to its published wording cleanup.
Point the bundled Firefox companion submodule at the published Firelink-Extension commit that launches Firelink for automatic captures when the desktop app is closed.
This keeps the parent app tree aligned with the source-of-truth extension repo and preserves the Add-window-first desktop handoff contract.
- launch Firefox handoffs through authenticated reconnect
- preserve usable drafts when metadata lookup fails
- reject stale metadata results and retry failed rows only
- Implement Firefox extension to intercept downloads and scrape selected links via context menus
- Create LocalExtensionServer over TCP (localhost:6412) to receive links from the extension
- Automatically package extension to firelink.xpi in create_app_bundle.sh
- Add Integrations tab in SettingsView with one-click installer for Firefox variants
- Modify ContentView and TrayMenuView to automatically open the Add Downloads window on extension trigger
