  • Drop the plugin-type Status column, which had one value in every row It once separated wired hook specs from reserved ones. Nothing is reserved any more, so the column told the reader nothing that the row's presence in the table did not. The template's HOOKS.md, the fuller reference for the same audience, never carried it. The sentence under the table still states that every spec is callable.

  • State what the software does, not what it used to do Twelve lines across eight pages read as release notes rather than as a manual: behaviour defined against the version it replaced (now, previously, in place of, the historical behaviour), limitations pinned to a release (in this version), implementation rationale aimed at a maintainer (which all drive these actions through one shared API, twice), and announcement register (flagship, first-class, every hook is wired). The reader is on the current version and has no earlier one to compare against, so each of these is now a plain statement of present behaviour.

  • Document Vapor Customize, the loading screen and the cover reshaping - Themes: new section for arranging a Vapor page in place, covering the edit bar, dragging, hiding, the big-card side and what Reset layout clears. Corrects the claim that home sections are only arranged from Settings, and the stale note that Vapor shows checkboxes without arrows: under Vapor the Settings block is not rendered at all. - ROMs: a screenshot of the artwork loading screen and the resume notice, the 7/6 jewel-case ratio, and the fact that replacing a cover by hand now reshapes its tile instead of keeping the old frame. - Plugin Development: the homeSections writes and managedSettings.

  • Document the Dashboard, emulator saves, home play rails, and the media proxy - New Dashboard page (admin Server overview + user Your activity, the live admin-only feed, the __GD__.dashboard theme API) + sidebar entry. - ROMs & Emulation: the Game Saves panel (nine-slot rail, battery tile, play from a save, upload/download, ZIP export and restore, quota); saves now live under data/saves, not data/resources. - Themes: Continue playing / Recently played rails on the home page, toggled and reordered under Settings > Libraries; Plugin Development + the home sections API gain orderable and per-option defaults. - Installation/Configuration: the required data/saves volume with an upgrade note, GD_SAVES_PATH and GD_SKIP_SAVE_DEDUPE, and the moved save paths. - Network & Security: ScreenScraper cover art is proxied credential-free.
