Release Notes

Added

• Debug mode with floating debug button for accessing system information, logs, and troubleshooting tools (toggle in Settings).
• New debug commands (get_debug_info, get_app_logs, read_app_log_file) for detailed system diagnostics.

Improved

• Drastically reduced log volume through intelligent caching and debouncing:
  • Cold-start now logs efficiently with early-break optimization (no retry spam).
  • Installed packages scan uses fingerprint-based caching with 1-second debouncing to eliminate rapid re-scans.
  • Held packages lookup includes memoization checks to prevent redundant filesystem walks.
  • Linker version enumeration uses package version cache to avoid directory walking on every call.
  • LNK shortcut parsing reduced from per-file logging to single summary line.
  • External crate logging (lnk, reqwest, tauri_plugin_updater) now gated at appropriate levels.
• Cold-start initialization now parallel-prefetches installed packages and manifest cache without blocking delays.
• App state refactored with encapsulated scoop_path() getter/setter and refresh-time tracking for debouncing.
• Package versions cache architecture similar to installed packages cache, tied to installed packages fingerprint.
• Eliminated blocking retry loops during cold-start; .msi symlink settling is handled gracefully via fallback to latest version directory.
• Manifest cache warming during cold start ensures first search is instant without re-scanning buckets.
• Search command now reports cache status and timing information for better observability.
• Cold-start now completes faster by removing synchronous sleep delays that were blocking the parallel package scan.

Documentation

• Removed a README notice describing the known update/fresh-install bug (as its now fixed on .msi installers).
• Comprehensive troubleshooting guide for debug information and log inspection.
