FlowState 2.4.2

FlowState 2.4.2

A small release about who can approve things, plus fixes. Please read the first point before
you update.

Changed: AIs on the relay can't approve in the chat any more (unless you allow it)

• If you use the optional FlowStateMCP relay (claude.ai, ChatGPT and other cloud AIs reach your
  FlowState through it), those AIs can no longer approve or reject review items in the chat
  after you update, even when they quote you. They answer that nothing was decided and give
  you the item's phone link, so you decide it yourself on your phone (or on the computer where
  FlowState runs).
• To allow it again, run flowstate relay chat-approvals on in your own terminal (it asks you
  to type y). flowstate relay chat-approvals off turns it back off, and
  flowstate relay chat-approvals shows the setting. There is no tool for it, so an AI can't
  turn it on through FlowState.
• Items that are yours alone stay locked either way (with approvals on: deletes and turning
  review off; and "did you say this yourself?" checks).
• Apps connected directly (on your computer, your own network or your own tunnel) are not
  affected.

Fixed

• When an AI's answer puts something in your review queue, it now also says how you decide it:
  your phone link (with the relay) or the review page link (apps on the computer where FlowState
  runs), and a plain line telling the AI not to approve it itself. Before, through the relay
  the answer had no link, so an AI offered to approve the item in the chat.
• Tests only: the desktop shortcut test failed on Linux, the test setup crashed on stock
  Debian / Ubuntu Python, and the wheel install test failed on Windows. FlowState itself was
  not affected by any of them.

Also

• The README now has two phone screenshots of the review page (relay users).
• No new dependencies, no database changes, no new tools.

How to update

• You have 2.4.0 or 2.4.1 from the FlowState folder: ask your AI to "update FlowState", or
  run <venv python> -m flowstate update in the FlowState folder. The dependencies are the
  same, so it needs no new .venv and works on Windows too. Then quit and reopen your AI apps.
• You don't have 2.4.0 yet: in your FlowState folder run git pull (or git fetch --tags
  and git checkout v2.4.2 if your folder is at a release tag), then
  python setup_flowstate.py --clients <your apps> --verify with the same options as when you
  set it up, then quit and reopen your AI apps.
• You installed with plain pip: reinstall from the 2.4.2 code the same way (for example
  pip install ./mcp-server in a 2.4.2 copy of the FlowState folder). Your database is kept.
