Other

• Novel source browsing now detects the end of the results without a wasted extra fetch, and prefetches the next page so the "load more" footer is accurate about whether more results follow. Ported from Tsundoku.
• The similar-titles carousel no longer spends a request on sources that can't return related titles, and closes the response it does make. Ported from Komikku.
• A novel plugin saved incompletely (an interrupted download) now re-downloads itself on next use instead of staying broken.
• The light-novel plugin runtime now provides Buffer, Blob, Response.arrayBuffer(), fuller response headers, and an X-XSRF-TOKEN header for Laravel-based sources, so plugins that rely on these no longer fail.
• Settings search now scrolls to and highlights the exact matched row (even when two settings in different content-type groups share a name) and indexes the recommendations screen so its options are searchable.
• Formatted the codebase to pass ktlint/spotless, so the formatter runs cleanly and can be enforced going forward.
• The manga and novel History/Updates rows, cover dialog, details screen, and reader bars now render through shared components instead of near-duplicate copies, so a change to one reaches both. Groundwork for the unified content UI.
• The manga and novel browse, global-search, and migration result cells now render through one shared browse cell, so the two catalogues stay identical and can't drift.
• The manga and novel source long-press options dialog (pin, enable/disable) now renders through one shared dialog.
• The manga and novel global search now render through shared components (the per-source result section, the result card row, and the source-filter chips), so the two search screens stay identical; their look is now unified (result card size, section header, and the chip row match).
• The manga and novel notes editors now render through one shared screen, so a change to the notes editor reaches both.
• The manga and novel library Display settings tab now render through one shared composable, so a change to it reaches both.
• The manga and novel "change categories" dialog now share one category-diff helper, so their checked/mixed logic can't drift.
• Enhanced and delegated sources now use the wrapped source's home URL for "Open in WebView", and redundant internal source overrides were dropped. Mirrors Komikku.
• Synced upstream Mihon changes: correct extensionLib metadata reading, Hikka tracker hardening, a dropped redundant code-shrink build flag, a zstd proguard keep, aboutLibraries v15, a refreshed set of community translations, and assorted dependency and CI bumps.
