v3.6.0
d712682

This release marks a significant milestone in security and system integration. We’ve introduced a hardened permission architecture, native Linux desktop support, and critical security patches to ensure a more robust and professional environment.

⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE: This version updates the API architecture to a permission-based system. Existing device sessions may need to be re-authenticated, and the master API key can now be rotated to revoke all active sessions.

🚀 Added

  • Power Management Wrapper: New sudoers configuration and wrapper for Linux, enabling remote power actions (Reboot/Shutdown).
  • Linux Desktop Integration: Added official icons, .desktop entry, and man pages for a native OS experience.
  • Global Permission Middleware: Integrated a new enforcement layer for all API services to improve security.
  • Per-Device Management: Fine-grained control over which devices have access to specific system functions.
  • Master Key Rotation: Added the ability to regenerate the master API key, instantly revoking all existing device sessions.
  • Web UI Themes: Support for custom themes in the Web interface.
  • Linux Auto-Installer: A new automated script to simplify the setup process on Linux environments.
  • 📦 Arch Linux Support: Now available on the AUR, maintained by Mark Wagie. Install with yay -S pclink.

🔄 Changed

  • Architecture Refactor: Updated the API versioning to support the new permission-based handshake.
  • PKGBUILD Enhancements: Refactored for Arch Linux to include comprehensive system dependencies and service integration.
  • WebDAV Improvements: Faster file browsing with automated JSON mapping for directory trees.
  • UI Modernization: Significant refactor of the Web UI for improved component structure and a modernized look.
  • Dependency Updates: Refreshed third-party notices and core dependencies.

🛡️ Fixed

  • Security Patch: Resolved a potential directory traversal vulnerability during extension extraction.
  • Logic Fix: Fixed an issue where duplicate device pairings could occur under specific network conditions.

🗑️ Removed

  • WinGet Workflow: The automated WinGet publication workflow has been retired.

📦 Installation & Update
