Port Manager 1.2.0

Release Notes — Version 1.2.0

ports-mcp 1.2.0 refines the local macOS workspace around faster project triage,
safer process decisions, and a more focused cache-cleaning experience.

Highlights

Project-first ports workspace

• Added adaptive filters for detected projects, development servers, externally
  reachable services, and processes that merit review.
• Added a keyboard-accessible process inspector with port, PID, listener scope,
  command, full-details, and guarded termination controls.
• Improved grouped port results, selection state, and compact table scanning.

Activity Monitor improvements

• Added dynamic CPU, memory, energy, and storage filters based on the processes
  currently running on the Mac.
• Refined system-monitoring views so user processes and protected macOS processes
  are easier to distinguish.

Cache-cleaning workflow

• Redesigned the cache workspace with scan summaries, safety guidance, size and
  text filters, and grouped results.
• Kept cleanup guarded: only backend-approved caches can be selected, and actual
  cleanup still moves items to the macOS Trash after confirmation.

Safety and reliability

• Collapsed the default system-port protection range into one summary in Settings,
  rather than rendering 1,024 individual controls. Custom blocked ports remain
  individually manageable.
• Updated indirect runtime dependencies to remove the known security advisories
  reported by npm audit at release preparation time.
