🌍 Internationalization (i18n)
- The desktop UI now ships in 7 languages: English, 简体中文, 日本語, Español, Deutsch, Français, 한국어.

lang/dirfor a future RTL seam. - Locale-aware number and date/relative-time formatting across Runs, Sessions, Settings, and inspectors.
- Full string migration across nav, settings, runs, sessions, inspectors, tool labels, and content pages.
- Guardrails: key-parity test across all locales + an eslint rule forbidding hardcoded JSX strings.
🏷️ Rebrand — Open Science Desktop
- Repositioned as the Open Science Desktop: "local-first, model-agnostic AI research workbench for macOS, Windows & Linux."
- Refreshed the multilingual README set and updated the GitHub description/topics.
🐛 Fixes
- Preserve generated artifact previews and run outputs.

⚠️ Install & first launch — unsigned builds
These installers are not code-signed or notarized, so your OS warns on first launch. This is expected; clear it once:
macOS — Apple Silicon: …_aarch64.dmg · Intel: …_x64.dmg (requires macOS 13+)
- Open the DMG and drag Open Science into Applications.
- If you see "… is damaged and can't be opened" or "unidentified developer", clear the quarantine attribute in Terminal, then open normally:
xattr -cr "/Applications/Open Science.app"
Windows — …_x64-setup.exe or …_x64_en-US.msi
- SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC" → More info → Run anyway.
Linux — .deb / .rpm
sudo apt install ./…_amd64.deborsudo rpm -i …x86_64.rpm
No in-app auto-update — download new versions from this Releases page. (The
.app.tar.gzassets are build artifacts, not an update channel.)
