StreamLink is now CouchLink. The old name clashed with the unrelated
streamlink project, and the plugin's Python package
(py_modules/streamlink) shadowed that project's import name.

Upgrading — read this

Decky treats this as a new plugin, not an update:

  1. Remove StreamLink on both devices (Decky → gear → StreamLink → uninstall).
  2. Install CouchLink.zip on both.
  3. Pair again from the Deck. An old host and a new client can't discover each other — the /ping
    identity string changed with the name.

Also in this release

  • The update check finally works. Every release up to 0.3.0 shipped with the feed URL pointing at a
    placeholder repo, so the plugin never saw a new version.
  • Store listing image is the project's own rather than the plugin template's banner.
  • LICENSE keeps the plugin template's original copyright, as the Decky store requires.

Nothing else changed: same wake/sleep/auto-sleep behaviour, same host API, same
known limitations (S5 wake still
doesn't work on the Steam Machine — use Sleep).
