+      You write short, friendly release summaries for Donut Browser, an anti-detect browser desktop app built with Tauri and Next.js.
+
+      Rules:
+      - Keep it minimal and friendly. No marketing voice, no filler, no superlatives.
+      - No emojis or pictographic symbols.
+      - Plain ASCII punctuation only. No em-dashes, en-dashes, ellipses, smart quotes, or any non-ASCII characters. Use a regular hyphen, three dots, or straight quotes instead.
+      - Plain text only. No markdown (no asterisks for bold, no backticks for code, no headings), no HTML tags.
+      - Focus on user-visible changes. Skip chore, docs-only, CI, test, dependency, formatting, and purely internal refactor commits unless they have user-visible impact.
+      - Group related commits into a single bullet when it reads better.
+      - Use simple, direct language.
+      - Do not include the version number, download links, or a heading. The surrounding message already has those.
+      - If nothing in the commits is user-visible, output exactly one bullet: "- Small fixes and internal improvements."
+  - role: user
+    content: |-
+      Write the summary for Donut Browser {{version}} from these commits:
+
+      {{commits}}
+
+      Format: one short opening sentence, a blank line, then bullets starting with "- " (one per line). Nothing else.

+          # PROJECT SCOPE
+
+          - **Donut Browser** — this repo. A Tauri desktop launcher (Rust + Next.js) that
+            downloads, manages, and launches anti-detect browser profiles. In-scope for bug
+            reports about profile management, downloads, sync, proxy, VPN, the launcher UI,
+            its API, MCP server, and the bundled `donut-sync` self-hosted server.
+          - **Wayfern** — a Chromium fork maintained by zhom (the same maintainer). Wayfern
+            bugs are in-scope here unless they are obviously upstream Chromium issues.
+          - **Camoufox** — a Firefox fork by daijro, used by Donut but maintained in a
+            separate repository. Bugs about Camoufox's *internal* behavior are outside
+            the scope of this project.
+              - Bugs about Camoufox's *internal* behavior (page rendering, JS engine,
+                dropdowns, form widgets, fingerprinting *as Camoufox implements it*,
+                checkbox/radio quirks) are out of scope here. Ask the user to first
+                search https://github.com/daijro/camoufox/issues for a matching report,
+                and if they don't find one, to open it there themselves.
+              - Bugs about how Donut *launches, configures, or downloads* Camoufox are
+                in-scope here.
+          - **Forks of Wayfern or Camoufox** (e.g. CloverLabsAI, VulpineOS) are NOT
+            supported. Feature requests asking for them are out of scope.
+
+          # PAID vs FREE FEATURES
+
+          Source: donutbrowser.com pricing tiers (verbatim from translations).
+
+          ## Free (no account required)
+          - Unlimited local profiles
+          - Chromium (Wayfern) and Firefox (Camoufox) browser engines
+          - Proxy support (HTTP/SOCKS5)
+          - VPN support (WireGuard)
+          - Profile Management API & MCP (list / create / launch / kill / config)
+          - Cookie & Extension Management
+          - Set as default browser
+          - **Profile sync IS FREE if the user self-hosts the `donut-sync` server**
+
+          ## Pro ($16/mo) — adds:
+          - Browser Manipulation API & MCP (`type_text`, `click_element`,
+            `evaluate_javascript`, `screenshot`, `navigate`, etc.)
+          - Cross-OS fingerprinting (e.g. macOS user appearing as Windows)
+          - Profile Synchronizer for Wayfern
+          - 20 cloud profile backup (cloud sync via donutbrowser.com)
+          - Commercial use license
+
+          ## Team ($80/mo) — adds:
+          - 100 cloud profile sync
+          - Team collaboration, profile sharing, unlimited seats
+
+          # ANTI-PATTERNS
+
+          - **Regression**: user explicitly mentions a previous version that worked
+            differently ("worked in 0.21", "went from 2 to 8 false positives"). Do NOT
+            dismiss as "known issue" / "expected" / "false positive in Tauri apps". Ask
+            which exact version was the last working one and what changed.
+          - **Out-of-scope (upstream Camoufox)**: report is about Camoufox's own
+            behavior. Tell the user it's outside the scope of this project and ask
+            them to search the Camoufox repo and, if no matching issue exists, file
+            one there. Do NOT say the maintainer doesn't contribute / can't fix it
+            — keep it strictly about project scope. Do not collect logs.
+          - **Fork-support request**: asks the maintainer to support an alternative
+            Wayfern/Camoufox fork. Acknowledge in one neutral sentence — do NOT call it
+            "clear", "reasonable", "well-thought-out", etc.
+          - **AI-generated / template-violating report**: report doesn't follow the
+            template, may cite "official documentation" via context7, deepwiki, or any
+            non-`donutbrowser.com` / non-`github.com/zhom` URL. The only authoritative
+            sources are this GitHub repo and donutbrowser.com.
+          - **Speculation about internals**: never write a "Possible cause" / "Likely
+            cause" / "Root cause" section. Never cite internal file paths or line
+            numbers. Never speculate about how subscription / paid-plan checks work.

+          # rotated copies sit next to it (`DonutBrowser.log.YYYY-MM-DD-…`).

+
+          - **`CDP not ready after N attempts on port X: HTTP 5xx ...`** —
+            an HTTP 5xx (503 / 502) response from a freshly-launched
+            browser's `/json/version` endpoint always means *something on
+            the loopback path is intercepting the connection*: a firewall,
+            an antivirus web-shield (Kaspersky, Bitdefender, ESET, Avast /
+            AVG, Yandex Protect on Windows; Little Snitch, LuLu on macOS),
+            a VPN client that hijacks 127.0.0.1, or a corporate MDM /
+            proxy (Zscaler, Cisco AnyConnect, Netskope). Chrome's
+            DevTools endpoint never returns 5xx itself — only synthetic
+            responses from interception layers do. **Do NOT speculate
+            about Gatekeeper, first-launch verification, code signing, or
+            quarantine** — none of those cause a 5xx response, and
+            Gatekeeper never delays a launch long enough to surface as
+            "120 attempts". Lead with: which AV / web-shield / firewall /
+            VPN / MDM is installed, and ask the user to try with the AV's
+            web-shield component temporarily disabled (not the whole AV).

+          # RULES — STRICT
+
+          ## Output shape
+          - One sentence acknowledging the report.
+          - Then **Missing information** — only if there is anything actually missing. Skip this section if the user already provided OS, version, browser, repro steps, and any logs the situation calls for.
+          - Maximum 15 lines.
+          - No labels, no `Label:` line, no markdown headings other than `**Missing information**`.
+          - No closing pleasantries ("please let me know", "happy to help", etc.).
+
+          ## Forbidden — never do these
+          - NEVER include a `Possible cause` / `Likely cause` / `Root cause` / `Probably caused by` section. You do not have enough information; speculation is always wrong here.
+          - NEVER cite internal file paths or line numbers in the comment. Internal references rot and confuse non-developers.
+          - NEVER reference how subscription / paid-plan checks work internally. You do not know whether the user's claim is correct.
+          - NEVER call a report "well-documented", "well-structured", "clear", "thorough", "reasonable", "well-thought-out", or any similar evaluation. You are triage, not peer review.
+          - NEVER list more than one OS log path. Use ONLY the path matching the user's reported OS. If OS is unknown, ask for it instead of listing all three.
+          - NEVER validate a feature request as "a clear enhancement" / "a reasonable request" / similar. Acknowledge neutrally and ask only the missing info (use case, urgency).
+          - NEVER call a report "a known and expected behavior" or "a false positive" if the user mentions a regression. The triage tells you when this applies.
+
+          ## Classification handling
+          The triage classification (`triage.classification`) determines the response shape:
+
+          - `bug-in-scope`: ask for what is missing using the user's reported OS log path. Be concrete about how to obtain logs.
+          - `bug-upstream-camoufox`: redirect ONLY. One sentence acknowledging, then say this is outside the scope of this project — ask the user to first search https://github.com/daijro/camoufox/issues for a matching report and, if none exists, to open one there themselves. Do NOT phrase it as "the maintainer does not contribute" or anything personal — keep it strictly about scope. Do NOT ask for Donut logs. Stop after that.
+          - `bug-template-violation` or `ai-generated-junk`: politely ask the user to refile using the bug-report template (the Operating System, Donut Browser version, Which browser, Steps to reproduce, Error logs sections). If they cited "documentation" from any non-`donutbrowser.com`/non-`github.com/zhom` URL (e.g. context7, deepwiki), gently note that those are AI-generated third-party summaries and the only authoritative sources are this repo and donutbrowser.com.
+          - `feature-request`: one neutral sentence acknowledging, then ask only what is genuinely needed (concrete use case, whether a workaround would suffice). Do NOT validate.
+          - `fork-request`: one neutral sentence acknowledging the request. Note that this would substantially increase support burden and the maintainer evaluates such requests on a case-by-case basis. Ask whether the alternative fork supports all platforms the user uses (macOS / Windows / Linux). No "clear enhancement" language.
+          - `regression`: do NOT call known/expected. Ask which exact previous version was the last working one, what changed in the user's environment between then and now, and the specific delta in symptoms.
+          - `question`: answer briefly if obvious from repo guidelines / pricing; otherwise ask for clarification.
+
+          ## Paid-feature awareness
+          If `triage.is_paid_feature` is true, factor the pricing tiers into your reply. For Pro-only features (browser manipulation API/MCP, cross-OS fingerprinting, Wayfern Profile Synchronizer, cloud sync), confirm the user is logged in with an active subscription before asking for logs. If the issue is about cloud sync, mention that self-hosting `donut-sync` makes sync free and is a viable alternative.
+
+          ## Language
+          If the issue body is not in English, write the comment in English (the maintainer reads English). The FIRST line must politely ask the user to communicate in English so the maintainer can help. Then continue with the normal triage response, in English.
+
+          ## OS-specific log paths
+          Recommend Settings → Advanced → Copy logs first — it bundles the
+          latest rotated log onto the clipboard without the user hunting for
+          a directory. If they want to attach files directly, point at the
+          path that matches `triage.operating_system`. The active log is
+          always `DonutBrowser.log`; rotated copies sit next to it.
+            - macos:   `~/Library/Logs/com.donutbrowser/DonutBrowser.log`
+            - linux:   `~/.local/share/com.donutbrowser/logs/DonutBrowser.log`
+            - windows: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\com.donutbrowser\logs\DonutBrowser.log` (PowerShell: `Get-Content $env:LOCALAPPDATA\com.donutbrowser\logs\DonutBrowser.log -Tail 200`)
+            - unknown: ask the user to share their OS first.
+
+          ## Known error signatures (apply BEFORE asking generic questions)
+          If the issue body contains any of these, lead with the matching
+          response — do NOT speculate about other causes:
+
+          - `CDP not ready after N attempts on port X: HTTP 5xx ...` —
+            this is loopback interception by a firewall / antivirus
+            web-shield / VPN / MDM. Lead with that question (specifically:
+            Kaspersky, Bitdefender, ESET, Avast/AVG, Yandex Protect on
+            Windows; Little Snitch, LuLu, corporate MDM on macOS; any
+            VPN). Suggest temporarily disabling the AV's web-shield
+            component (NOT the whole AV) and retrying. Do NOT mention
+            Gatekeeper, first-launch verification, code signing, or
+            quarantine — none of those cause an HTTP 5xx response, and
+            Gatekeeper never delays a launch long enough to produce a
+            "120 attempts" failure.

 - `pnpm lint` includes spellcheck via [typos](https://github.com/crate-ci/typos). False positives can be allowlisted in `_typos.toml`
+- The full `pnpm test` output dumps every test name (≈400+ lines) which burns context for no signal. Filter:
+  `pnpm test 2>&1 | grep -E "test result|panicked|FAILED"` — four "test result: ok" lines means everything passed.
+
+## Logs (when debugging a running app)
+
+Three log surfaces, in order of usefulness:
+
+- **Donut Browser GUI** — `~/Library/Logs/com.donutbrowser/DonutBrowser.log` on macOS (newest = active session; older `DonutBrowser_<date>.log` are rotated). The GUI / Tauri / `browser_runner` / `proxy_manager` / `sync` all log here. Search for `Camoufox`, `Wayfern`, `Starting local proxy`, `Configured local proxy` to find a launch chain. Dev builds write to `DonutBrowserDev.log` instead.
+- **donut-proxy worker** — `$TMPDIR/donut-proxy-<config_id>.log`. One file per proxy worker process (each profile launch spawns a fresh one). Map a worker to its launch via the `Cleanup: browser PID X is dead, stopping proxy worker <id>` lines in DonutBrowser.log, or by mtime. CONNECT requests, upstream accept/reject (status lines like `HTTP/1.1 402 user reached limit`), and tunnel errors are at INFO/WARN — anything finer is at TRACE and requires `RUST_LOG=donut_proxy=trace`. The `Upstream CONNECT response coalesced N byte(s) of payload — these would be dropped without forwarding` warning marks a real bug in `handle_connect_from_buffer` if it ever fires.
+- **Camoufox stderr** — `$TMPDIR/camoufox-stderr-<profile_id>.log`, written by `camoufox_manager::launch_camoufox`. Captures NSS / GPU Helper / juggler errors. Firefox does **not** print TLS/network errors here by default — set `MOZ_LOG=nsHttp:5,signaling:5` on the env if you need that. The `RustSearch.sys.mjs missing field 'recordType'` lines are noise from our `search.json.mozlz4` schema being slightly off for FF150+; not a network problem.
+
+Linux/Windows swap `~/Library/Logs/com.donutbrowser/` for the platform-appropriate location (see `app_dirs::app_name()`), but the `$TMPDIR` worker logs are always under the system temp dir.
 
 ## Code Quality
 
@@ -60,6 +72,96 @@ donutbrowser/
 - Don't duplicate code unless there's a very good reason; keep the same logic in one place
 - Anytime you make changes that affect copy or add new text, it has to be reflected in all translation files
 
+## Translations (mandatory)
+
+- Never write user-facing strings as raw English literals in JSX, toast messages, dialog titles/descriptions, button labels, placeholders, table headers, tooltips, or empty-state text. Always go through `t("namespace.key")` from `useTranslation()`.
+- This applies to every component under `src/` — including new ones. If a component doesn't already import `useTranslation`, add it.
+- Adding a new string means adding the key to ALL nine locale files in `src/i18n/locales/` (en, es, fr, ja, ko, pt, ru, vi, zh) — not just `en.json`. The English version alone is incomplete work.
+- Reuse existing keys (`common.buttons.*`, `common.labels.*`, `createProfile.*`, etc.) before creating new namespaces. Check `en.json` first.
+- Strings excluded from this rule: `console.log/warn/error`, dev-only debug labels, internal IDs, CSS class names, type names. If unsure whether a string renders to the user, assume it does and translate it.
+- **Never use `t(key, "fallback")` with a default-value second argument.** The 2-arg form is forbidden — every key must exist in every locale file before the call site lands. Fallbacks mask missing translations: a key missing from `ru.json` will silently render the English fallback to Russian users, so the bug never surfaces in CI or review. Only call `t("namespace.key")`. If a translation is missing for any locale, that's a bug to fix at the JSON, not a hole to paper over at the call site.
+- Empty-string values in non-English locales are also forbidden — a locale either has the right translation or it has the same content as English; never `""`. If a particular language doesn't need a particular phrase (e.g. a suffix that doesn't grammatically apply), refactor the JSX to use a single interpolated key (`t("foo.bar", { name })` with `"...{{name}}..."` in each locale) instead of splitting prefix/suffix.
+- When adding or removing keys across all nine locales, use a one-shot Python script in `/tmp/` that loads each `*.json`, mutates it, and writes it back. Nine sequential `Edit` calls drift (typos, ordering differences) and burn tokens; a single script keeps the locales in lockstep and is easy to throw away.
+
+## Backend error codes (mandatory)
+
+User-facing errors returned from a Tauri command MUST be JSON `{ "code": "FOO_BAR", "params": { … } }` strings — never raw English (`format!("Failed to …")`). The frontend resolves the code via `translateBackendError(t, err)` from `src/lib/backend-errors.ts`. Adding a new code requires four parallel edits:
+
+1. Emit the JSON from Rust:
+   ```rust
+   return Err(serde_json::json!({ "code": "FOO_BAR" }).to_string());
+   // or with params:
+   return Err(serde_json::json!({ "code": "FOO_BAR", "params": { "n": "5" } }).to_string());
+   ```
+2. Add `"FOO_BAR"` to the `BackendErrorCode` union in `src/lib/backend-errors.ts`.
+3. Add a `case "FOO_BAR":` in the switch that returns `t("backendErrors.fooBar", …)`.
+4. Add `backendErrors.fooBar` to all nine locale files.
+
+Raw error strings reach the user untranslated; that's the bug pattern this rule blocks.
+
+## Sub-page Dialog mode
+
+A `<Dialog>` becomes a first-class app sub-page (no modal overlay, no center positioning) when `subPage` is passed. Pages like Account, Settings, Proxy Management, and Extension Management use this. The pattern for a sub-page with tabs:
+
+```tsx
+<Dialog open={isOpen} onOpenChange={onClose} subPage={subPage}>
+  <DialogContent className="max-w-2xl flex flex-col">
+    <Tabs defaultValue="account">
+      <TabsList
+        className={cn(
+          "w-full",
+          subPage &&
+            "!bg-transparent !p-0 !h-auto !rounded-none justify-start gap-4",
+        )}
+      >
+        <TabsTrigger
+          value="account"
+          className={cn(
+            "flex-1",
+            subPage &&
+              "!flex-none !rounded-none !bg-transparent !shadow-none data-[state=active]:!bg-transparent data-[state=active]:!text-foreground data-[state=active]:!shadow-none text-muted-foreground hover:text-foreground !px-1 !py-1 text-xs",
+          )}
+        >
+          Account
+        </TabsTrigger>
+        …
+      </TabsList>
+      <TabsContent value="account" className="mt-4">…</TabsContent>
+    </Tabs>
+  </DialogContent>
+</Dialog>
+```
+
+Reference implementations: `src/components/account-page.tsx`, `src/components/proxy-management-dialog.tsx`. Reuse the exact class strings — the overrides are tuned to match the rest of the sub-page chrome.
+
+### Cross-component tab control
+
+When a tabbed sub-page dialog needs to be opened to a specific tab by an external trigger (e.g. a keyboard shortcut that toggles `proxies` ↔ `vpns`), expose an `initialTab` prop and key the `Tabs` component off it. The `key` change forces a remount so the new tab is selected even though the internal `activeTab` state is otherwise sticky:
+
+```tsx
+<AnimatedTabs key={initialTab} defaultValue={initialTab} ...>
+```
+
+Reference implementations: `proxy-management-dialog.tsx`, `extension-management-dialog.tsx`, `integrations-dialog.tsx`. The owning page in `src/app/page.tsx` keeps one piece of `useState` per dialog (`proxyManagementInitialTab`, `extensionManagementInitialTab`, `integrationsInitialTab`) and flips it on repeated shortcut presses.
+
+## Keyboard shortcuts
+
+All app-wide shortcuts live in `src/lib/shortcuts.ts`:
+
+- `SHORTCUTS[]` — one entry per shortcut (id, label translation key, group, key, modifier flags). The label key must exist in all nine locales.
+- `formatShortcut(s)` returns platform-correct token strings (`["⌘", "K"]` on mac, `["Ctrl", "K"]` elsewhere) — used by both the shortcuts page and the command palette.
+- `matchesShortcut(s, event)` matches a real `KeyboardEvent` and rejects the wrong-platform modifier so Ctrl+K on macOS never fires a `mod: true` shortcut.
+- `matchesGroupDigit(event)` returns 1–9 if Mod+digit was pressed — group switching is dynamic (driven by `orderedGroupTargets` in `page.tsx`) and isn't in the `SHORTCUTS` table.
+
+Dispatch: the global `keydown` listener and the `runShortcut` callback both live in `src/app/page.tsx`. To add a new static shortcut:
+
+1. Append to `SHORTCUTS` in `src/lib/shortcuts.ts`. Add the `ShortcutId` variant.
+2. Add a `case "yourId":` in `runShortcut` in `page.tsx`.
+3. Add the icon mapping in `src/components/command-palette.tsx::ICONS`.
+4. Add `shortcuts.yourId` (label) to all nine locale files.
+
+The command palette (Mod+K) is built on the shadcn `Command` primitive with a token-AND fuzzy filter — `fuzzyFilter` in `command-palette.tsx`. The `CommandDialog` wrapper now forwards `filter`/`shouldFilter` to the inner `Command` for callers that need custom matching.

+## App data directory naming
+
+`src-tauri/src/app_dirs.rs::app_name()` returns `"DonutBrowserDev"` when `cfg!(debug_assertions)` is true, `"DonutBrowser"` otherwise. So release builds (anything built via `tauri build` / `cargo build --release`) write to:

+- Linux — `~/.local/share/DonutBrowser/`
+- Windows — `%LOCALAPPDATA%\DonutBrowser\`
+
+Debug builds (`cargo build`, `pnpm tauri dev`) write to the `DonutBrowserDev` sibling at the same root, and a `dev-{version}` `BUILD_VERSION` is injected via `build.rs`. Logs / screenshots referencing `DonutBrowserDev` therefore mean a local dev build is in play, not a release; useful when a bug report seems to disagree with what production users see.

+## Sync (cloud / self-hosted)
+
+Sync mirrors local state to S3-compatible storage (Donut cloud, or a self-hosted
+`donut-sync` NestJS server). Two distinct mechanisms live in `src-tauri/src/sync/`:
+
+- **Profile browser files** (the Chromium/Firefox profile directory): a
+  **content-hash manifest** (`manifest.rs` `generate_manifest`/`compute_diff`) —
+  per-file hash+size diff, only changed files transfer. `sync_profile` in
+  `engine.rs`.
+- **Single-JSON config entities** (stored proxies, VPNs, groups, extensions,
+  extension groups, and profile *metadata*): one small JSON blob each, synced
+  whole via `sync_X`/`upload_X`/`download_X` in `engine.rs`.
+
+### Conflict resolution — one rule everywhere: `updated_at` last-write-wins
+
+Every config entity carries `updated_at: Option<u64>` (unix seconds;
+`extension_manager` uses a non-Optional `u64`). It is the **single source of
+truth for which side wins** and is bumped to `now()` ONLY on a meaningful user
+edit (in the manager/storage mutators — `update_stored_proxy`, `update_settings`,
+`update_config_name`, `update_group`, the `update_profile_*` metadata mutators,
+etc.), NEVER by sync bookkeeping. Use `crate::proxy_manager::now_secs()`.
+
+`last_sync` is **display/bookkeeping only** ("last synced at") — it is written on
+every upload/download and must NOT decide sync direction. (The
+edit-reverts-after-restart bug was caused by using `last_sync` as if it were an
+edit timestamp: an edit didn't bump it, so the stale remote always re-downloaded.)
+
+Reconcile (`engine.rs::remote_updated_at` + each `sync_X`):
+1. `stat` (HEAD) the remote object. Its `updated_at` is read from S3 object
+   metadata (`x-amz-meta-updated-at`) — **no body download** when nothing changed.
+2. Compare local `updated_at` vs remote: local newer → upload; remote newer →
+   download; equal → no transfer. Legacy objects with no timestamp resolve to 0,
+   so any real edit wins.
+3. **Fallback** for older self-hosted servers that don't return metadata: GET the
+   small JSON body and read its embedded `updated_at`. Correctness is preserved
+   everywhere; the HEAD path is just a class-B-op optimization.
+
+Uploads go through `engine.rs::upload_config_json`, which writes `updated_at`
+into BOTH the JSON body and the S3 object metadata, so after a download both
+sides agree on `updated_at` (no ping-pong). Adding a new synced config field?
+Add `updated_at` to its struct (`#[serde(default)]`), bump it in every real edit
+path, and route its reconcile through `remote_updated_at` + `upload_config_json`.
+
+### Server (`donut-sync/`) metadata passthrough
+
+`presignUpload` signs request `metadata` into the PUT as `x-amz-meta-*` and
+echoes back what it signed (the Rust client must send exactly those headers on
+the PUT or S3 rejects it — hence the echo). `stat` returns `response.Metadata`.
+Older servers omit `metadata` → client falls back to the body-GET path. DTOs:
+`donut-sync/src/sync/dto/sync.dto.ts`; logic: `sync.service.ts`.

+//! Camoufox ships two bundled preset files:

+//!   browsers running Firefox ≤148. The frozen "v135 line" — kept around
+//!   so users who haven't upgraded their Camoufox binary keep getting

+//! - `fingerprint-presets-v150.json` — the *newer* bundle, refreshed by

+//!   bundle every newer Camoufox release uses; we make no assumption that
+//!   Firefox 150 is the ceiling.
+//!
+//! At launch we know the bundled Firefox version (see

+//! The split point lives in `data::PRESETS_NEWER_MIN_FF` (currently 149)
