v0.5.0

midnight-wallet-cli 0.5.0

Re-cut to include all work through the review-hardening pass. Full detail in CHANGELOG.md.

Highlights

• Native dust-sync sidecar — cold dust sync ~22 min → ~3.7 min (~5×), optional, with transparent WASM fallback. Ships as source in this release; a local bun link gets native.
• Shielded balance sync rewritten as a direct indexer reader — hours → ~1 min, memory-bounded (no more 16 GB OOM).
• Dust generation-tree collapse — bounded dust-cache size and restart cost (~300× smaller serialized cache on a real preprod state).
• mn dust export — restorable dust snapshot for fast warm-restore.
• mn contract deploy --secret-key — seed a caller-chosen initial private-state secret (env-passed, never on disk).

Correctness fixes

• Cache chain-reset guard now actually enforced for dust + wallet caches (was a silent no-op — could surface a stale balance after a chain reset).
• Native sidecar no longer caches an incomplete sync as complete — a mid-stream WS drop now resumes instead of being recorded as done.
• Direct-indexer readers share one graphql-ws subscription driver — uniform, resumable settle semantics; fixes the fast dust reader reporting a dropped stream as complete.

DX / consistency

• mn address accepts --wallet and MN_SEED; mn generate accepts MN_SEED (keeps seeds off the process list).
• Native sidecar warm-at-tip resume ~2× faster (initial-silence fast-return).
• Localnet self-heal — every service uses restart: unless-stopped (survives Docker Desktop restarts; no more half-dead localnet).
• Localnet images bumped to the current Preview/Preprod support-matrix generation.
• MCP tool count corrected (30), plus documentation of new flags/commands.

Note: not yet published to npm — install from source or bun link locally.
