PourNotify v1.0.3

PourNotify v1.0.3 adds rotating JSONL notification diagnostics and a Pour Design System desktop UI redesign with Dashboard, Notification Test, History, Settings, Diagnostics access, and system/light/dark appearance.

All 13 notification categories and existing Codex, desktop, sound, Bark, History, diagnostics, IPC, duplicate-suppression, quiet-hours, configuration, and tray behavior are preserved. Windows desktop notification behavior was manually verified. macOS was built and tested in CI; runtime verification was not performed on a physical Mac.

PourNotify v1.0.2

PourNotify v1.0.2

• Preserves the manually verified Windows desktop notification fix by packaging and installing a valid application/tray icon before notification dispatch.
• Records notification attempts as attempted or attempted_with_errors:* instead of claiming confirmed delivery.
• Pins Ruff 0.16.0 so local and CI validation use the same reproducible lint gate.

Windows desktop notification behavior was manually verified: tray icon, banner, Notification Center entry, sound, and Bark delivery all passed.

The macOS artifact was built and tested in GitHub Actions. Runtime verification was not performed on a physical Mac. Binaries are unsigned; the macOS build is not notarized.
