- keep Windows executable checks on targets that run on the hosted image
- compile Tauri-backed queue and library tests without executing the broken harness
- share root-scoped canonical cache logic with the Windows safety regression
- run Windows integration targets without the broken Tauri lib harness
- retain Windows cache and web-seed regressions in runnable targets
- bound Linux apt retries, network waits, and job duration
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.
