🚀 Aartiq Browser v0.2.99

Release Date: July 05, 2026

✨ New Features

• First-run onboarding — new users see a Welcome Screen with Sign in / Setup / Guest mode on initial launch, plus guided startup setup wizard

• Fixed shell permission bypass, plaintext vault storage, unsafe new Function() vectors

• Security audit documentation/code contradiction resolution

📋 What's New in the Build Pipeline
