Why 0.7.0

Operator clarity after 0.6.0 Efficiency Idle: see what Soft did this session, pick Dev/Gaming/Quiet skins, read pressure/capping from the tray, and optionally export config or run a short prove soak — without dashboard sprawl or boost claims.

Highlights

• Session actions — Monitor / Controls: This session · capped N · idle M · restored K (actuators ran/restored — not freezes prevented)
• Soft restore events — leave-plan / Soft TTL emit soft_restore:* Resume lines in the Event log
• Profiles — Dev / Gaming / Quiet Soft policy skins (SetProfile); additive whitelist merge; SoftOnly only
• Tray badge — tooltip + icon tone for monitoring / cap / Efficiency Idle; CLI ctrl=
• Tools — Export/Import config JSON under AppData; opt-in Prove Soft (90s) via sibling disk-hog.exe
• Maximized layout — nav tabs, footer gauges, and status chips no longer stretch into empty slabs

Unchanged / honesty

• Windows x64 portable only
• SoftOnly default; Suspend remains experimental-only
• Overload = relief, not damage prevention
• Launch stutter on slow OS volumes may remain under high disk latency
• disk-hog is a soak fixture — not shipped in the zip by default

Install / update

See USER-GUIDE Updating (portable). Download Unstick-0.7.0-windows-x64.zip, stop service/UI, extract over install, restart.
