Nook 0.2.1 — Native usage cards and smoother companion

Nook 0.2.1 updates the native app and its terminal companion features. The website includes the current interactive demos and a chaptered product film.

Changes

• Open Nook's own usage card from the gauge without sending /usage to the terminal when live limits are enabled. It combines live session figures with Claude's last saved usage reading, including weekly model limits, and marks the source and age of saved values.
• Continue following Claude conversations moved to the background, including when a background job changes its session after /clear.
• Refine the cat's face, connected body, shaped legs and paws, walking, gestures and animation pacing in both the native app and the website.
• Add the website's product film with playback controls, chapter navigation and a reduced-motion alternative.
