  • Watchdog process to restart launcher when it crashes.
  • Easier debug with /console to show debug outputs.
  • Switch pipe-based RPC to byte mode instead of message mode to have more flexible error handling.
    • This requires a change in PIMETextService to update the client pipe to use byte mode as well.
  • Some parts of the code are AI-generated (Antigravity with Gemini).
  • Update CI configs, installer script, and README to include Rust.

Unit tests and integration tests are added to ensure its correctness. I've been testing this new version for one week and so far it works well.
