BlueNoise v0.5.3

Optional experimental: a Jev (TypeSafe AI) second pass, with guards that cap what it can spend.

New

• Jev second pass (Settings → Experimental, off by default, uses your own TypeSafe API key): replies no local rule matched are judged by Jev, and a verdict ≥ 90% is filtered exactly like a rule hit. Verdicts are cached; only unmatched replies leave your browser, and only while the switch is on.

Guards

• 25 replies per call, 40 requests per 10 minutes, 200 per page session.
• A rejected key parks the feature for 30 minutes; 429 honours Retry-After; other failures back off exponentially.

Fixes

• The switch now checks the API key before requesting the origin permission, so a keyless click no longer tears down the settings page.
• "Get an API key" links to console.typesafe.ai/keys.
