Relocate the miner-update control from a standalone full-width button into the mining-control
header row, immediately left of the benchmark button:
- The button now shows the latest available version ("Update <tag>"), with the current installed
version as text to its left ("Current: <tag>" / "none").
- A one-shot background version check (util::XmrigUpdater::startCheck) runs the first time the pool
section is shown, so the latest tag can be displayed; until it arrives the button reads
"Update miner…". Clicking opens the existing dialog; disabled (greyed, with tooltip) while the
miner is running.
- New i18n keys: xmrig_update_short, xmrig_current, xmrig_none.
Both variants build; suite passes; GUI smoke-launched without crash.

Replace the English string literals in the miner-update dialog + the "Update miner…" mining-tab
button/tooltip with TR() keys, and register their English text in i18n.cpp's loadBuiltinEnglish()
(the in-code English fallback that non-English locales overlay). Reuses the existing cancel/close/
retry keys. Labeled values use a "%s %s" literal format with a TR'd label (no -Wformat-security
risk). Non-English locales fall back to English for the new xmrig_* keys until translations are
added to res/lang/*.json.
Both variants build; suite passes; hygiene clean.

Wires util::XmrigUpdater into the GUI:
- ui/windows/xmrig_download_dialog.h: a modal (mirrors BootstrapDownloadDialog) that drives
the updater — Checking -> Up-to-date/Update-available -> Downloading/Verifying/Extracting ->
Done/Failed, with a progress bar and a "verified against its published checksum" note. On
success it persists the installed release tag to settings. Rendered each frame from App::render.
- mining_tab: an "Update miner…" button in the pool section, disabled (with a tooltip) while
xmrig is running so a live binary is never replaced.
- settings: persist the installed DRG-XMRig tag (xmrig_version) for update detection.
Both variants build; suite passes; GUI smoke-launched without crashing.

Preserve the previously-uncommitted lite wallet implementation and related dev WIP
under version control:
- src/wallet/ lite services: client bridge, bridge runtime, connection, lifecycle,
sync, gateway, result parsers, state mapper, artifact contract/resolver, refresh
services, UI adapters, wallet_backend/capabilities. (Includes two small M1 fixes:
lifecycle walletReady now parses the response; default chain name -> "main".)
- src/chat/ chat protocol; tests/fixtures/ (lite + hushchat); tools/hushchat_fixture_check.cpp;
scripts/build-lite-backend-artifact.sh.
- Pre-existing modified app_network/security/wizard, network_refresh_service, sidebar,
mining_tab, bootstrap dialog, and version headers captured as-is.

Add --lite build flow and ObsidianDragonLite target naming, hide full-node pages/features in lite mode, enforce pool-only mining in lite, and include chat port feasibility audit documentation.
instead of initial burst performance. Previously the benchmark used a
fixed 20s warmup + 10s peak measurement, which reported inflated
results on thermally constrained hardware (e.g. 179 H/s vs actual
sustained 117 H/s on a MacBook Pro).
- Adaptive warmup with stability detection: mine for at least 90s,
then compare rolling 10s hashrate windows. Require 3 consecutive
windows within 5% before declaring thermal equilibrium (cap 300s)
- Average-based measurement: record mean hashrate over 30s instead
of peak, reflecting real sustained throughput
- Start candidates at half the system cores — lower thread counts
are rarely optimal and waste time warming up
- Add CoolingDown phase: 5s idle pause between tests so each starts
from a similar thermal baseline
- Adaptive time estimates: use observed warmup durations from
completed tests to predict remaining time
- UI shows Stabilizing when waiting for thermal equilibrium past
the minimum warmup, Cooling during idle pauses"
Security (P0):
- Fix sidebar remaining interactive behind lock screen
- Extend auto-lock idle detection to include active widget interactions
- Distinguish missing PIN vault from wrong PIN; auto-switch to passphrase
Blocking UX (P1):
- Add 15s timeout for encryption state check to prevent indefinite loading
- Show restart reason in loading overlay after wallet encryption
- Add Force Quit button on shutdown screen after 10s
- Warn user if embedded daemon fails to start during wizard completion
Polish (P2):
- Use configured explorer URL in Receive tab instead of hardcoded URL
- Increase request memo buffer from 256 to 512 bytes to match Send tab
- Extend notification duration to 5s for critical operations (tx sent,
wallet encrypted, key import, backup, export)
- Add Reduce Motion accessibility setting (disables page fade + balance lerp)
- Show estimated remaining time during mining thread benchmark
- Add staleness indicator to market price data (warning after 5 min)
New i18n keys: incorrect_pin, incorrect_passphrase, pin_not_set,
restarting_after_encryption, force_quit, reduce_motion, tt_reduce_motion,
ago, wizard_daemon_start_failed
- Add pool mining thread benchmark: cycles through thread counts with
20s warmup + 10s measurement to find optimal setting for CPU
- Add GPU-aware idle detection: GPU utilization >= 10% (video, games)
treats system as active; toggle in mining tab header (default: on)
Supports AMD sysfs, NVIDIA nvidia-smi, Intel freq ratio; -1 on macOS
- Fix idle thread scaling: use getRequestedThreads() for immediate
thread count instead of xmrig API threads_active which lags on restart
- Apply active thread count on initial mining start when user is active
- Skip idle mining adjustments while benchmark is running
- Disable thread grid drag-to-select during benchmark
- Add idle_gpu_aware setting with JSON persistence (default: true)
- Add 7 i18n English strings for benchmark and GPU-aware tooltips

- Set default window/UI opacity to 100% on Mac/Linux
- Add scroll fade shader guard for macOS GL compatibility
- Add ImGui error recovery around render loop and mining tab
Daemon & bootstrap:
- Fix getDragonXDataDir() to return ~/Library/Application Support/Hush/DRAGONX/ on macOS
- Fix isPortInUse() with connect() fallback (no /proc/net/tcp on macOS)
- Increase daemon watchdog timeout from 3s to 15s
- Add daemon status indicator (colored dot + label) in wizard bootstrap phases
Mining tab:
- Fix EmbeddedDaemon::getMemoryUsageMB() crash on macOS (was using Linux /proc)
- Fix XmrigManager::getMemoryUsageMB() to use ps on macOS instead of /proc
- Restructure RenderMiningTab with wrapper pattern for exception safety
- Fix default pool URL to include port (pool.dragonx.is:3433)
- Mining tab: sync s_selected_threads with actual thread count when idle
thread scaling adjusts threads (solo via genproclimit, pool via
threads_active), skipping sync during user drag
- Auto-lock: bypass lock screen overlay when xmrig pool mining is active
so the mining UI remains accessible
- Import key dialog: add clipboard hover preview with transparent overlay
on the input field, inline key type validation next to title (matching
send tab paste button pattern), configurable via ui.toml
- Replace all hardcoded English strings with TR() translation keys across
every tab, dialog, and component (~20 UI files)

- Set AppUserModelID and HWND property store to override Task Manager cache
- Link patched pthread libs to eliminate "POSIX WinThreads" description
Address creation (+New button):
- Move z_getnewaddress/getnewaddress off UI thread to async worker
- Inject new address into state immediately for instant UI selection
- Trigger background refresh for balance updates
Mining tab:
- Add pool mining dropdown with saved URLs/workers and bookmarks
- Add solo mining log panel from daemon output with chart/log toggle
- Fix toggle button cursor (render after InputTextMultiline)
- Auto-restart miner on pool config change
- Migrate default pool URL to include stratum port
Transactions:
- Sort pending (0-conf) transactions to top of history
- Fall back to timereceived when timestamp is missing
Shutdown:
- Replace blocking sleep_for calls with 100ms polling loops
- Check shutting_down_ flag throughout daemon restart/bootstrap flows
- Reduce daemon stop timeout from 30s to 10s
Other:
- Fix market chart fill artifact (single concave polygon vs per-segment quads)
- Add bootstrap checksum verification state display
- Rename daemon client identifier to ObsidianDragon
Diagnostics & logging:
- add verbose logging system (VERBOSE_LOGF) with toggle in Settings
- forward app-level log messages to Console tab for in-UI visibility
- add detailed connection attempt logging (attempt #, daemon state,
config paths, auth failures, port owner identification)
- detect HTTP 401 auth failures and show actionable error messages
- identify port owner process (PID + name) on both Linux and Windows
- demote noisy acrylic/shader traces from DEBUG_LOGF to VERBOSE_LOGF
- persist verbose_logging preference in settings.json
- link iphlpapi on Windows for GetExtendedTcpTable
Security & encryption:
- update local encryption state immediately after encryptwallet RPC
so Settings reflects the change before daemon restarts
- show notifications for encrypt success/failure and PIN skip
- use dedicated RPC client for z_importwallet during decrypt flow
to avoid blocking main rpc_ curl_mutex (which starved peer/tx refresh)
- force full state refresh (addresses, transactions, peers) after
successful wallet import
Network tab:
- redesign peers refresh button as glass-panel with icon + label,
matching the mining button style
- add spinning arc animation while peer data is loading
(peer_refresh_in_progress_ atomic flag set/cleared in refreshPeerInfo)
- prevent double-click spam during refresh
- add refresh-button size to ui.toml
Other:
- use fast_rpc_ for rescan polling to avoid blocking on main rpc_
- enable DRAGONX_DEBUG in all build configs (was debug-only)
- setup.sh: pull latest xmrig-hac when repo already exists
RPC client:
- Add call() overload with per-call timeout parameter
- z_exportwallet uses 300s, z_importwallet uses 1200s timeout
Decrypt wallet (app_security.cpp, app.cpp):
- Show per-step and overall elapsed timers during decrypt flow
- Reduce dialog to 5 steps; close before key import begins
- Run z_importwallet on detached background thread
- Add pulsing "Importing keys..." status bar indicator
- Report success/failure via notifications instead of dialog
RPC caching (app_network.cpp, app.h):
- Cache z_viewtransaction results in viewtx_cache_ across refresh cycles
- Skip RPC calls for already-cached txids (biggest perf win)
- Build confirmed_tx_cache_ for deeply-confirmed transactions
- Clear all caches on disconnect
- Remove unused refreshTransactions() dead code
Peers (app_network.cpp, peers_tab.cpp):
- Route refreshPeerInfo() through fast_worker_ to avoid head-of-line blocking
- Replace footer "Refresh Peers" button with ICON_MD_REFRESH in toggle header
- Refresh button triggers both peer list and full blockchain data refresh
Mining (mining_tab.cpp):
- Allow pool mining toggle when blockchain is not synced
- Pool mining only needs xmrig, not local daemon sync
- Remove getinfo from refreshMiningInfo slow path; daemon_version,
protocol_version, and p2p_port are static per connection (set in
onConnected). Move longestchain/notarized into refreshBalance's
existing getblockchaininfo callback.
- Remove refreshMiningInfo from refreshData(); it already runs on
the 1-second fast_refresh_timer_ independently.
- Make refreshAddresses demand-driven via addresses_dirty_ flag;
only re-fetch when a new address is created or a send completes,
not unconditionally every 5 seconds.
- Gate refreshPeerInfo to only run when the Peers tab is active.
- Skip duplicate getwalletinfo on connect; onConnected() already
prefetches it for immediate lock-screen display, so suppress the
redundant call in the first refreshData() cycle.
Steady-state savings: ~8 fewer RPC calls per 5-second cycle
(from ~12+ down to ~4-5 in the common case).
