v0.4.0 — Agent-quality release

What's new

Agent-breaking bug fixes

• Errors to stdout — JSON error envelopes now go to stdout (not stderr) so agents always get the response
• Typed error codes — "not found" → exit 3, network errors → exit 1 (retryable), not just "internal_error"
• FTS triggers — search is now O(1) instead of rebuilding the entire index on every query
• Lean list payloads — inbox list, search, thread no longer return full HTML bodies (saves tokens)
• archived field — now present in all message responses (was a ghost column)

New commands

• inbox mark <ids...> --read/--unread — toggle read state (bulk)
• inbox thread <id> — conversation view via RFC 5322 headers
• inbox unarchive <ids...> — restore archived messages (bulk)
• inbox stats — mailbox counts: total, inbox, unread, archived, sent
• inbox delete/archive — now accept multiple IDs

Improvements

• Cursor pagination with --after <id> + has_more + next_cursor
• Bulk mutation responses: {requested_ids, updated_ids, missing_ids}
• Thread indexes on rfc_message_id and in_reply_to
• Cursor ordering: (created_at DESC, id DESC) for stable pagination
• Updated agent-info manifest with all new commands

macOS menu bar daemon

• Fixed menu item clicks (proper ObjC action targets via define_class!)
• app.run() + finishLaunching() for correct AppKit event handling
• NSTimer-based display refresh (live unread count updates)
• Optimistic UI: Mark All Read clears badge instantly
