169.254.*addresses are scoped to the correct interface, with clearer connection diagnostics when a link cannot be reached. - The sender validates corrupt protocol frames and safely skips unknown packet types instead of stalling the connection.
- The Receiver only prevents display sleep while a sender is actively connected.
- Input Dockstation roles now persist across launches, and input is relayed only while the shared display Space is active.
- Settings and About sheets use the correct dark appearance.
Quality And Testing
- Added 65 sender unit tests and 60 receiver parser checks.
