ChromaPaw 0.4.0 — Reversible Windows Runtime Beta

Reversible Windows Runtime Beta

• Adds exact-version Windows Codex discovery, preflight, activation, verification, monitoring, private capture, stop, and restore.
• Injects validated Skin Studio v2 CSS in memory through a random loopback-only CDP endpoint; it does not modify WindowsApps, app.asar, signed executables, or application archives.
• Records executable, adapter, package, and session continuity hashes and recursively redacts session secrets from command output.
• Keeps delayed avatar-overlay windows synchronized and preserves the transparent pet background guard.
• Stops only verified runtime-owned processes, confirms the CDP port closed, and safely restores a known volatile Codex config key.

Compatibility

• Enabled: managed standalone Codex 26.707.9981.0, exact version only, isolated-live verified.
• Discovery only: official AppX 26.803.5235.0. Activation remains disabled because Windows rejected the protected-package direct launch required by this runtime.
• Unknown versions fail closed. This is an experimental compatibility layer, not an official OpenAI skin API.

Validation

• 38 automated tests passed.
• Plugin manifest, all three skills, and the adapter JSON schema passed their release validators.
• Real main-window and avatar-overlay activation, verification, process isolation, config restoration, and port shutdown were verified on Windows.
