## Summary

A large productivity-focused feature branch delivering a suite of improvements across automation, project management, theming, performance, and documentation.

### Features

- **Guided Project Workflow** (#189) — Four-phase workflow panel (Discuss → Plan → Execute → Verify) to keep projects structured from idea to completion
- **Automated Task Loop** (#179) — Per-task conversation orchestration with wave-based parallel execution, blocked-task detection, and concurrency control
- **Wave-Based Parallel Execution** (#191) — Tasks run in dependency-aware waves with configurable concurrency; independent tasks execute in parallel
- **Auto-Commit After Task Completion** (#192) — Task Loop optionally commits after each completed task so progress is never lost
- **PRD Creator** (#180) — AI-assisted PRD and task list panel that outputs `hikari-tasks.json` for the Task Loop to consume
- **Project Context Panel** (#188) — Persistent `PROJECT.md`, `REQUIREMENTS.md`, `ROADMAP.md`, and `STATE.md` files injected into Claude's context automatically
- **Codebase Mapper** (#190) — Generates a `CODEBASE.md` architectural summary so Claude always understands the project structure
- **Community Preset Themes** (#181) — Six built-in community themes: Dracula, Catppuccin Mocha, Nord, Solarized Dark, Gruvbox Dark, and Rosé Pine
- **In-App Changelog Panel** (#193) — Fetches release notes from GitHub at runtime and displays them inside the app
- **Full Embedded Documentation** (#196) — Replaced the single-page help modal with a 12-page paginated docs browser featuring a sidebar TOC, prev/next navigation, keyboard navigation (arrow keys, `?` shortcut), and comprehensive coverage of every feature

### Performance & Fixes

- **Lazy Loading & Virtualisation** (#194) — Virtual windowing for conversation history, markdown memoisation, and debounced search for smooth rendering of large sessions
- **Ctrl+C Copy Fix** (#195) — `Ctrl+C` now copies selected text as expected; interrupt-Claude behaviour only fires when no text is selected

### UX

- Back-to-workflow button in PRD Creator and Task Loop panels for easy navigation
- Navigation icon cluster replaced with a single clean dropdown menu

<h4 class="font-medium text-[var(--text-primary)] mb-2">Quick Actions</h4>
<p>
Click the <strong>⚡ lightning bolt</strong> icon in the input toolbar to open a panel of predefined
prompt shortcuts. These let you trigger common tasks (explain code, write tests, refactor, and more)
with a single click instead of typing.
</p>

Quick actions send a pre-written prompt to Hikari immediately — no extra typing needed.

<h4 class="font-medium text-[var(--text-primary)] mb-2">Snippet Library</h4>
<p>
Click the <strong>snippet icon</strong> in the input toolbar to open your personal snippet library
— a collection of reusable text blocks you can insert into the input with one click.
</p>
<ul class="space-y-1 mt-2">
<li>• Snippets are organised by category</li>

— a list of text you've previously copied or pasted during the session.
</p>
<ul class="space-y-1 mt-2">
<li>• Longer text blocks and code snippets are captured automatically</li>

<h4 class="font-medium text-[var(--text-primary)] mb-2">Compact Mode</h4>
<p>
Compact mode shrinks the app to a small <strong>280×400 px</strong> floating window — useful for
keeping Hikari visible whilst working in another application.

<ul class="space-y-1 mt-2">
<li>
• Toggle via <strong>Compact Mode</strong> in the menu or
<kbd class="kbd">Ctrl+Shift+M</kbd>

Hikari Desktop can share your activity in Discord — showing the model you're using and session
duration as your Rich Presence status.

<p class="mt-2">
Toggle this in Settings (<kbd class="kbd">Ctrl+,</kbd>) under the Discord section. Disable it
if you'd rather keep your coding sessions private.
