v0.2.0

ComicK Revive v0.2.0

ComicK Revive grew from an in-page reader into a full app: it now has its own dashboard, a toolbar popup, a search you can read from directly, sources you can add yourself, reading stats, and one-click backups.

🖥️ A real dashboard

Click the toolbar icon and open the dashboard, a full page with a collapsible sidebar:

• Library of everything you're reading, with covers and progress.
• Search across all your sources and read right there, no ComicK page needed.
• Stats, Settings, and Sources management, all in one place.

🔎 Toolbar popup

A quick glance from the toolbar icon: your recently read titles and mini stats, one click back into a chapter.

➕ Add your own sources, no code required

A source is now a small JSON "recipe" the extension runs at load time.

• Import one by paste, file, or URL, with a syntax highlighted editor.
• A one click AI prompt that gets an assistant to write the recipe for you.
• A built in test tool that runs search, details, chapters, and pages against the live site so you can see exactly what works.
• Edit, download, and share your sources with others.

🎚️ Source control

• Drag to set priority for search.
• Enable or disable any source.
• Point a built in source at a new domain when a site moves.

📊 Reading stats

Chapters read, active reading time, a daily activity chart, and streaks.

💾 Backup and restore

Export your reading history, library, sources, and settings to a single file, then import it later with a merge or replace choice. Cached images are left out so the file stays small.

🔄 Safer updates

• The dashboard checks for new releases and shows a banner when one is out.
• Releases are now built automatically.
• The extension has a fixed ID, so moving its folder never loses your data again.

🛠️ Fixes and polish

• Covers now cache and display consistently across the app.
• Settings changed in the dashboard apply the next time the reader opens.
• Better handling of scraped sources that need a referer or use rotating image CDNs.
• A clear message instead of a wall of errors when a manga is linked to a source you removed.
• Fixed the stray white border strips that showed up in the reader.
• General UI cleanup across the reader and dashboard.

⚠️ Updating from 0.1.0

This version pins a fixed extension ID. If you already had 0.1.0 installed, your library will start empty after updating, because 0.1.0 had no way to export it first. Fresh installs are unaffected. From 0.2.0 onward your data carries across updates, and you can back it up any time from Settings → Data.

📦 Install

1. Download comick-revive-v0.2.0.zip below and unzip it.
2. Open chrome://extensions and turn on Developer mode.
3. Updating: replace your extension folder's contents with the new files, then click Reload. Do not Remove and re-add, that wipes your reading data.
4. First install: click Load unpacked and pick the unzipped folder.
