Avatar Forge 2.2.0

What changed

• Added a bundled cookie-free Douyin download engine based on the proven DouK request flow.
• Users only provide an authorized Douyin URL; no separate downloader, Edge/Chrome Cookie, Windows DPAPI access, or ChatGPT browser extension is required.
• Kept yt-dlp as an automatic fallback.
• Added offline downloader contracts, end-to-end link verification, doctor visibility, and explicit GPL-3.0 third-party notices.

No paid avatar, voice, or transcription tasks were submitted during release verification.

Avatar Forge 2.1.1

Fixes update detection for existing customers. Adds an authoritative VERSION marker, makes doctor verify manifest/version consistency, detects the legacy standalone Skill name collision, and updates Codex installation guidance to migrate old copies safely. New marketplace installs follow the official repository so future version bumps can be discovered; checksummed WorkBuddy releases remain pinned.

Avatar Forge 2.1.0

Adds an independent reference-video workflow: accept a local upload or authorized Douyin URL, preserve the original transcript, and create a structurally rewritten speaking script. Douyin downloading is installed with the Skill through yt-dlp; users do not need a separate downloader project. Browser cookies are used only with explicit permission. Also restores the mandatory portrait-quality gate and supports either a reference voice or existing speaker_id in the complete workflow.

• Kept Codex and WorkBuddy on the same canonical pipeline implementation.
• Added checksum-verified installers with automatic backup of existing WorkBuddy installations.
• Added a no-spend doctor and cross-platform distribution validation.

Installation validation is local and does not submit paid generation tasks.
