• Launch saved environments silently from stable Stream Deck shortcuts.
• Retain legacy Game Mode and Script Mode launcher compatibility.
• Create additional environments without losing the persistent creation card.
• Preserve saved environments and managed shortcut registrations during repair, upgrade, uninstall, and reinstall.
• Check for updates from the existing configured release source.

• Removed non-interactive empty-space hover reactions.

• Fixed environment icon ellipsis artifacts.
