What works
All five protocols end-to-end — SFTP · SCP · FTP · WebDAV · S3 (+TLS): connect, browse, transfer,
file ops. Dual-pane Commander, session tabs, directory tree, background transfer queue with parallel
transfers, edit-remote-in-any-editor (auto re-upload on save), public-key auth, host-key verification,
drag & drop (incl. from Finder), bookmarks, synchronized browsing.
The protocol engine is WinSCP's own C++ engine recompiled natively; the GUI is a Qt 6 rebuild.
