#Amethyst v1.19.0: A New Login, Remote Signers on Android, Wayland, and Marketplace Cards

Highlights:

• Redesigns the login and sign-up screens around signers: your signer app or a remote signer first, then the key field, on every platform.
• Adds NIP-46 remote signer login on Android, and makes it work with Opal and other signers that percent-encode their bunker addresses.
• Opens gift wraps in parallel for remote-signer accounts: a cold start that waited ~85s using a remote signer for DMs now takes ~20s.
• Gives the desktop first-class key storage: a status card in Key Backup, a password file when there is no system keyring, and an opt-out.
• Draws natively on Wayland in every Linux release, with the compositor's own title bar where it has one.
• Compresses videos on desktop through the system's ffmpeg, with the same quality table as Android.
• Honors relay rate limits: a relay's rate-limited: back-off now holds and re-sends the refused commands instead of losing them.
• Adds cards for NIP-15 marketplaces, NIP-85 trust assertions, Trusted Lists, decentralized lists and NIP-29 group metadata.

New Features

Login and Sign-up

• Redesigns the login, sign-up and remote-signer screens on one shared frame: the logo over a soft glow, rounded fields and buttons, Tor settings as a chip, and a brand-and-card split on windows 840 dp and wider.
• Shows the same order everywhere: the signer app where one is installed, the remote signer wherever it works, then "or", then the key field.
• Names and draws the installed signer app ("Login with Amber" and its icon), or says "a signer app" when there are several.
• Lights up Login once a key is typed, and Create Account once there is a name, and puts the terms checkbox at the top, gating every way in.
• Puts each error right under what it is about: the key field, the password field, the signer app's button or the remote signer's button.
• Fits the logged-off screens and the remote-signer dialog on small phones, and keeps the Add New Account bar above the form, not over it.
• Uses white and frosted cards instead of grey for the login, remote-signer, key-storage and Key Backup surfaces.

Remote Signers (NIP-46)

• Logs in with a NIP-46 remote signer on Android too: paste a bunker:// or show the nostrconnect:// code.
• Hands the code to a signer app with Open signer, from an in-app menu when several take it, never to Amethyst itself.
• Shows the code in a large frame ringed by the logo's colors while it waits, with Copy, Open signer and the relays as pills.
• Lets you pick the relay your signer uses, or one of your inbox relays, when it can't reach the defaults.
• Uses relay.nip46.com, nrs.primal.net and bucket.coracle.social, the relays Amber and Opal default to, instead of relay.nsec.app, which stopped answering.
• Reads percent-encoded bunker addresses, as Opal writes them, and fails with an error instead of spinning forever.
• Accepts only an answer that carries the code's secret. Anyone who saw the code could reply first and pose as the signer.
• Resends the same request on a retry, so a signer that queues requests for approval (Amber) no longer asks twice.
• Waits five minutes for the signer instead of two, and introduces each platform by its own name and icon.
• Opens gift wraps, seals and drafts up to 8 at a time ahead of the indexer. With Amber over NIP-46, a desktop cold start opened its 118 wraps in ~20 s instead of ~85 s.
• Tries remote-signer accounts last when decrypting push notifications, so an offline bunker no longer holds every other account's notifications.

Desktop Key Storage

• Shows where your keys live in a status card at the top of Key Backup, with Try again when the keychain refuses and Unlock when the key file is locked.
• Keeps keys in a password-protected NIP-49 file (keys.ncryptsec) when the computer has no system keyring, asking for the password once per launch.
• Adds "Remember my key on this device": turn it off and the key is asked for at each launch.
• Adds Save keys to take back this run's "Don't save".
• Stops rewriting the private key to the macOS Keychain on every settings save, which brought the Keychain password prompt back over and over.
• Fixes view-only, bunker and signer-app logins failing to load after a restart on Windows and Linux.
• Fixes the Linux OS keyring in release builds (deb, rpm, AppImage and Flatpak), which always fell back to the password file.
• Treats KWallet's missing item as absent, so a fresh KWallet no longer shows "Keychain error" on every launch.
• Upgrades a read-only session when you Unlock, Try again or log in again with the nsec.
• Reports a key the vault could not keep once per run, instead of on every settings save.
• Keeps the nostrconnect:// secret out of the logs.

Desktop Video Compression

• Compresses videos through the system's ffmpeg at the quality slider's level, with Android's resolution and bitrate table, HEVC when asked, and H.264 otherwise.
• Strips video metadata by remuxing the original when it is the one going up, and asks before uploading if the strip fails.
• Names the picked video and its target on the slider, such as "High · 4K video → 2160p, 8 Mbps".
• Hides the H.265 and GIF-to-MP4 switches without ffmpeg, showing an install hint instead.
• Tells you when an encode was discarded for not being smaller.
• Finds Homebrew and other package-manager installs of ffmpeg when the app is launched from Finder.

Marketplaces (NIP-15)

• Adds cards for stalls, products, marketplaces, auctions, bids and bid confirmations, which showed as raw JSON or not at all.
• Shows a product's gallery, price, stock, stall, specs and a Message seller button that drafts a DM with the listing.
• Shows an auction's starting bid, its start and end with the merchant's extensions, an Upcoming/Live/Ended badge, and its highest bid and bid count.
• Reads marketplace events leniently (prices as strings, missing ids, tag form auctions from hash21 and mkauction), and keeps other apps' records on the same kinds out.

Trust and List Cards

• Adds one card for NIP-85 trusted assertions (30382-30385): what it scores, the rank, hops, every other metric as a tile, timestamps as dates, and the provider.
• Shows a kind 10040's designated providers, with the services each serves.
• Adds cards for Trusted Lists (30392-30395) with members best first and their scores.
• Adds cards for decentralized list headers and items (9998/9999, 39998/39999), loading a header's items while it is on screen, with url, tel and email fields as links.
• Adds a card for NIP-29 group metadata (39000) that opens the group.
• Renders hashtags, links and people in bookmark lists and sets, and quotes pinned notes instead of printing raw nevent strings.
• Pages long rosters (3, then 50 per Show more) and caps chip rows with a "+N more" chip, since event authors decide how many tags a card gets.

Feeds and Cards

• Adds an info button to each feed filter that explains what it shows, and on the Notifications screen, what it does to notifications.
• Loads the relay lists of people-list members you don't follow, so list feeds, follow packs and All Follows find their notes.
• Draws live streams with their summary, start time, viewer count, and a Watch recording button over the cover once ended.
• Shows a classified's location and a Sold badge, a zap goal's end countdown, a calendar event's own time zone, and a long-form article's reading time and topics.
• Renders every kind as the thread's main note the way the feed does: RSVPs, calendars, lists, chess, live activities and more drew nothing or plain text there.
• Resolves NIP-30 custom emoji on reaction notification cards, and draws an untagged :shortcode: reaction as text instead of an empty image.
• Plays Blossom's .mpga audio files and Podcasting 2.0 trailers.
• Draws a kind 31337 as a music track only when it has a file to play, and leaves the rest (ad-skip data, game state) out of the feeds.

Performance

• Makes the outbox's delivery state mutable under its lock: a publish cost O(relays²) in copies, ~3,400 ns per relay at 100 relays, now ~150 ns.
• Makes a screen's subscription invalidation lock-free: 1.1 ns instead of up to 8,300 ns while an update is running.
• Returns at once when pruning frees a note that is not a zap.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Shows a relay that refused a post with a back-off as retrying while the client waits it out.
• Stops one relay's hang-up during a publish retry from reconnecting the whole relay pool.
• Fixes acks from different relays being lost, which kept an event in the outbox and re-sent it on every reconnect.
• Fixes a forged copy of a note getting the real one dropped as its duplicate, and deleting an addressable's old version removing the current one.
• Downloads the Web of Trust network in ~10 s and 39 MB instead of minutes and 380 MB: it no longer fetches every deletion the provider signed, and learns of retracted cards over NIP-77.
• Routes the Web of Trust provider's relays like your own: clearnet by default instead of through Tor.
• Stops a Web of Trust download on mobile data when it is not allowed, keeps it through list updates, and checkpoints it so an interruption loses less.
• Fixes the zoom animation for images scrolled partly out of the feed or under the bars, and makes GIFs shrink back into their thumbnail.
• Fixes tapping a quoted reply in a chat scrolling to the wrong message.
• Stops the like icon crossfading from an empty heart on every scroll.
• Stops demoting the threads of audio rooms and video playback, which made audio stutter under load.
• Stops an audio room's service restarting after the app was killed and holding audio focus and a wake lock for a room that was gone.
• Stops any app from controlling picture-in-picture video playback.
• Reads timestamps written in milliseconds as seconds, which made goals and live streams end in "54,000 years".
• Keeps the Git Repositories search's kind:git chip out of the Namecoin and .bit lookups.
• Gives a room's name width before its label in Messages, so a Cordn group no longer shows only its coordinator.
• Follows the testls.space ElectrumX port swap for Namecoin.

Desktop

• Draws natively on Wayland in every Linux package, with the JetBrains Runtime. Set AMETHYST_X11=1 to stay on XWayland.
• Uses the compositor's title bar on KDE, sway, Hyprland, COSMIC and niri; GNOME keeps the GTK one.
• Fixes video playback on Windows, which said "Video playback unavailable" in 1.18.0, and on macOS release builds.
• Keeps the chart library intact in release builds, which ProGuard broke.
• Lets the .deb install on Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12 and their derivatives.
• Fixes .deb and .rpm installs and removals failing on systems without /usr/share/desktop-directories, and upgrades that removed the menu entry.
• Requires the system libraries and a font in the .rpm, so minimal Fedora and openSUSE installs launch.
• Renames the Flatpak app ID to com.vitorpamplona.amethyst.Amethyst, so it doesn't share the Android package's listing in Nostr app stores. See BUILDING.md to move your v1.18.0 data.
• Fixes the Web of Trust download, which never started on desktop, and keeps Cordn's group state on disk.
• Drops the image viewer's URL tooltip and click-to-copy; Copy URL stays in its menu.
• Removes the Intel macOS options from the README: only Apple Silicon is built.

Cli

• Fixes amy 1.18.0's self-contained bundles crashing on every command with NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/management/ManagementFactory.
• Lists relays amy fetch --paginate could not page under unpaged_relays, and warns that the result may be partial.
• Adds retry_after_ms to rejected_by entries.
• Fetches all of a search such as include:spam on search.brainstorm.world: amy fetch returned 5,000 of 35,578 events, and amy sync none.

Quartz

• Implements NIP-01 rate-limit back-offs (nostr-protocol/nips#2498): OkMessage and ClosedMessage carry params and retryAfterMs.
• Holds a relay's refused commands on its connection (RateLimitGate) and re-sends them when the back-off passes, across reconnects and pool changes, with the subscription's current filters.
• Adds RateLimiter and RateLimitPolicy for relays, with PolicyResult.Rejected.rateLimited.
• Pages a NIP-50 search with no words to rank, keeps observer: searches on one page, and carries the search on fetchByIds.
• Re-asks a page cut short inside its boundary second instead of reporting DRAINED.
• Fixes a decoder hang on short OK, CLOSED and NEG-ERR frames, a truncated JSON object looping, and a field like jE replacing an event's id.
• Fixes subscribeAsFlow and fetchAsFlow dropping the newest list on a burst.
• Fixes QuicReader overflowing on a peer-chosen length, and a bad datagram escaping to the crash handler.
• Reads NIP-15 marketplace events leniently, with isWellFormed(), AuctionData.endsAt() and AuctionBidSummary.
• Adds AssertionMetric readers, Trusted List accessors and D-list fieldDeclarations(), displayHints() and listImage(), with tel and email field types.
• Adds TimeUtils.toUnixSeconds for millisecond timestamps.
• EmojiUrlTag.decode returns null unless both shortcode and url are present.

Geode

• Adds a [rate_limits] section for events and REQs per client per minute, answering with the NIP-01 back-off and 429 with Retry-After over NIP-FE. Off by default.
• Counts an IPv6 client by its /64.
• Caps WebSocket frames at 1 MiB by default; one header could cost 2 GB.

Build & Documentation

• Fails the desktop release if ProGuard strips a JNI native method, a D-Bus transport or leaves a stale jar signature.
• Fails the amy build when its runtime lacks a JDK module its jars use.
• Self-tests the OS keyring on every packaged desktop build in CI.
• Speeds up .deb post-processing from 156 s to 51 s.
• Splits the iOS CI jobs and caches the Kotlin/Native toolchain, so they finish under their timeout.
• Adds tools/desktop-run to run and screenshot the shared UI headless, and asks agents to look at a UI change before calling it done.
• Clears the build and lint warnings across modules, and removes 125 unused Android strings and 10 unused drawables.
• Publishes the Flatpak to Orchard.
• States that issue bounties are not a promise of payment.

#Amethyst v1.18.0: Amethyst Desktop, Web of Trust, Privacy Lock, and a Deck

Highlights:

• Ships Amethyst Desktop: the desktop app now runs the same screens and navigation as Android, and the legacy desktop app is gone.
• Adds a Web of Trust network from your NIP-85 provider. Strangers' DMs go to New Requests, and Curated notifications and replies leave them out.
• Adds a Privacy lock for the whole app, your messages or your wallet, with biometrics on Android and a password on desktop.
• Adds Custom feeds built from people, hashtags, kinds and relays, and an opt-in Deck of columns for wide windows.
• Rewrites web-app signing prompts to say what each request does, and stops one stuck prompt from blocking every later signature.
• Lets you drag the panes in wide windows, and opens every chat type beside its list.
• Redesigns My Fitness around weekly goals, with streaks, history and charts.
• Makes the Messages toggles stop loading NIP-04 or NIP-17, instead of only hiding them.
• Renders NIP-82 software releases with their app, release notes, and downloads for your device first.

New Features

Privacy Lock

• Adds a Privacy lock settings screen with three switches, all off by default: lock the entire app, lock messages, lock the wallet. Plus an idle timeout.
• Unlocks with biometrics or the device credential on Android, and with an app password on desktop.
• Locks you out for 30 s after five wrong passwords, doubling up to 5 minutes, and keeps the lockout across restarts.
• Asks for the credential before a lock is turned off or its timeout made longer.
• Hides message text in notifications while the messages or app lock is on, and guards the secret-key backup behind any lock.
• Locks the Marmot and Cordn group screens, drafts, and the payment and mint top-up screens too.

Custom Feeds and Deck

• Adds custom feeds: pick people, hashtags, kinds and relays, minus hidden people and keywords. They show in the Home feed picker under "Your feeds", with a manage screen and an editor.
• Adds an opt-in Deck (Settings › App › Deck) for windows 1,200 dp and wider, in place of the notification panel.
• Makes every Deck column any screen, with its own back stack. Columns can be added, moved, resized, reset and closed, across up to nine workspaces.
• Adds Deck shortcuts on desktop: Ctrl/Cmd+T, +W, +Shift+PageUp/PageDown, +Alt+1–9 and +Shift+S, plus a Deck menu on macOS.
• Imports the legacy desktop app's feeds, workspaces and lock settings.

Web of Trust

• Downloads your NIP-85 rank provider's trust cards into a compact index on the device, and keeps it current with small, cheap updates.
• Treats people below a minimum trust score as strangers. Their DMs go to New Requests, Curated notifications drop them (in-app and push, zaps exempt), and their thread replies start collapsed. Follows always pass.
• Adds a Web of Trust settings screen: the network's size over a histogram of ranks, a minimum-score slider with a live count, and sync status.
• Sets up Brainstorm's GrapeRank with a guided sign-up, or any NIP-85 provider by its key and relay.
• Reads rank and follower badges from the index, without a subscription per profile.
• Shows on a profile whether the person is in your network, with their score or "You follow them". Tapping it opens the Web of Trust settings.
• Collapses runs of public-chat messages from people outside your network into one "3 messages from outside your network · Show" row, in NIP-28, live-stream, ephemeral and relay-group chats.
• Orders people search, mentions and people lists by follows, then trust score, then everyone else.
• Resumes a cut-off trust network download instead of starting over.
• Lets you copy another person's trust view, or enter a provider key with its tags as chips, under "Set up by hand".
• Opens the provider's website in Amethyst's browser, signed in with this account.
• Adds the Brainstorm relay to the default search and indexer relays.

Signing

• Times out a web-app signing prompt after 120 s. A prompt left behind Home used to block every later request from every web app.
• Brings a pending prompt back when Amethyst returns to the foreground.
• Shows what each request does: the private message inside a seal, the relay of a relay login, the method and URL of a NIP-98 request, and the verb, file and server of a Blossom upload or delete.
• Previews a profile edit as the new profile, with "Changes your bio · Removes your lightning address" lines.
• Summarizes follow, mute, deletion and report changes in one line, and shows reports as report cards.
• Asks before signing a report under the Reasonable trust level, and asks once, not twice, in Paranoid mode.
• Warns when a prompt has been open a minute or more that the app may have stopped waiting.
• Fixes Connected Apps for web apps: Forget now forgets an app's decisions, a new trust level takes effect, and an app no longer shows once per account. A forgotten app could keep signing logins without a prompt.
• Only the buttons and Back decide a prompt now. A tap beside it no longer denies silently.
• Removes the 40-requests-per-10-seconds limit on Amethyst's own NIP-46 signer for paired apps, and answers their requests in parallel, so busy clients are no longer refused. Unpaired keys get 10 requests a minute each, 100 in total, and the rest are dropped unanswered.

Messages

• Turns NIP-04 or NIP-17 loading, paging and subscriptions off when you turn its toggle off. With NIP-17 off, its rooms, composer and calls are gone, and the gift-wrap subscription asks only for what Marmot or Concord still need.
• Brings cached messages back when a protocol is turned on again.
• Pages NIP-17 history one round at a time. A quiet chat offers Keep looking and Stop instead of walking every gift wrap you ever received, and names the relays that didn't answer.
• Pages NIP-17 history from your DM relay list only, 500 gift wraps at a time.
• Pages history (messages, notifications, Cashu wallet) only for the account on screen. With several accounts logged in, a NIP-17 group showed only its last message.
• Keeps pinned conversations in the list when none of their messages is loaded yet.
• Opens every chat type beside its list on wide screens: Buzz, Marmot, Cordn, Concord, relay groups and location channels, like DMs.
• Softens the bubble colors: other people's bubbles are lighter in the light theme, and your own keep the accent's hue without the neon glare.
• Checks the stock Concord relays for invites every 15 minutes instead of keeping them open.

Wide Windows

• Lets you drag the splitters between the drawer and the content, the content and the notification panel, and a chat list and its chat. Widths are saved per device.
• Opens a note's menu as a dropdown by its ⋮ button, with keyboard navigation and submenus, instead of a dialog in the middle of the screen.
• Wraps the composer's tools under the text instead of scrolling them sideways, with hover tooltips.
• Opens the account switcher as a menu from the docked drawer.
• Scrolls the feed with the mouse wheel over the empty gutters beside it.
• Adds a refresh button to the docked notification panel, and shows today's counts and the 7-day chart in it.
• Opens the drawer from a tab pager only after a 120 dp swipe or a fast flick, instead of on the first pixel, and keeps wheel and trackpad scrolls with the pager.
• Puts Navigate before You in the drawer when there is no bottom bar.

My Fitness

• Redesigns My Fitness around weekly goals: rings for active minutes, workouts and active days, plus an optional weekly distance, each "on track" or "behind pace".
• Adds a goal editor. The default is 150 active minutes a week, the WHO guideline.
• Adds 12 weeks of weekly active time, a 18-week consistency heatmap with streaks, your busiest days and times, and the activity mix against the previous four weeks.
• Fetches your own published workouts, instead of only those another screen had loaded.
• Stops counting fasting, diet and meditation as active time.

Composer and Uploads

• Adds a custom-emoji picker to the note, comment, DM and public-chat composers. It inserts your NIP-30 emoji as :shortcode:.
• Makes the image quality slider also set a maximum size: 640, 1280 or 1920 px, then uncompressed. Posts start at 1280 px on phones, now at JPEG quality 85 instead of 75.
• Resizes photos on Android to exactly that size. A 12 MP photo used to go up at about 2016 px whatever the setting.
• Previews the first image compressed in the upload dialog, with its size and dimensions next to the original's. Tap it to compare both full screen at their real resolution, with zoom; tap again to flip between them.
• Deletes the temporary copies a compression leaves behind when the quality slider moves on before it finishes.
• Tags music uploads with their format (m4a, mp3, …), so other clients know the .mp4 Blossom returns is audio.
• Adds imeta (hash, size, type, dimensions, blurhash) to images pasted as links in the note, comment, public message, classified and new group DM composers, so readers can lay them out before they load. Links without an image extension count when their preview is an image.
• Waits up to 3 s for a link just pasted before posting, so its imeta goes out with the post.
• Fetches a pasted link once for its preview card and its imeta.

Feeds and Cards

• Renders NIP-82 software releases with the app's icon and name, markdown release notes and OS chips.
• Groups release downloads by OS, with the best match for this device on top, and splits pre-releases from the latest release.
• Trusts a release only from the app's publisher or its listed maintainers.
• Opens Zapstore apps instead of an empty group chat. Only group content follows its h tag to a NIP-29 group.
• Loads an app's releases on its own page, even when it is opened from a link, profile or mention.
• Fills bare app cards with their OSes, license and links, renders app descriptions like a note body with translation, and groups platform chips by OS.
• Adds cards for Kanban boards and cards, WalletScrutiny verdicts and Mostro instance terms.
• Adds a CI status badge and runs sheet, and cover notes, to NIP-34 git PRs, patches and issues.
• Finds Marmot key packages of White Noise users who publish only the legacy kind 443, so they can be invited.
• Shows the caption above the reactions on video and file cards.
• Plays an audio-only .mp4 as audio, with its cover, by reading the file's track list. Blossom serves every M4A upload as .mp4 / video/mp4, so these showed a black video box. A music track or podcast whose file is a real music video plays as video instead of inside the waveform strip.
• Shows the cover, title and player of audio tracks, and the player of audio headers that carry their file in a url tag.

Performance

• Moves blocking and lock-touching work off Dispatchers.Default: external signer calls, proof-of-work mining, relay health saves, cache scans and cyberspace bag sweeps. One slow job no longer stalls feeds and relay verification behind it.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Shows each relay's median post, query and first-result times, and a "Slow N×" chip on a relay that lags the others.
• Hides the broadcast banner once your outbox relays accept a post, instead of waiting for every relay. It can always be dismissed, and an outbox failure stays with a Retry.
• Stops a dead outbox relay or a dropped connection from showing a post as failed.
• Counts every connected relay under a job in the always-on notification, and says "Connected to N relays" instead of "inbox relays".
• Asks before opening a scanned 64-character hex key as a profile, since it might be a private key.
• Completes multi-part QR codes from the camera and from images, waits for a tap when several codes are in view, and keeps zoom and torch when the camera reopens.
• Fixes the wallet invoice QR being clipped in wide windows.
• Converts GIFs to MP4 in comment, public message, classified and edit composers, which ignored the switch.
• Fixes uploads of keyboard GIFs and stickers failing with a permission error after the upload dialog had been open a while.
• Makes text fields in embedded web apps behave as in the browser: Enter sends, cleared fields stay cleared, chips, paste, maxlength, and Next on forms.
• Fixes the image zoom animation popping to full size instead of growing from the thumbnail with its rounded corners.
• Fixes a pasted nevent to a music track, or any addressable event, showing twice in search.
• Shows a reaction notification for a reaction to your reply. It was checked against the thread root's author.
• Shows nested NIP-22 replies in community feeds.
• Fixes zap splits without a relay being saved so that Amethyst and other clients read them as weight 0. Old splits still load.
• Counts on-chain and BOLT12 zaps toward your zap income only when you are the payee, and attaches a BOLT12 zap only to the live activity it names.
• Fixes hashtag feeds asking only the first relay.
• Shows "Messages" in the Messages top bar instead of the Amethyst logo.
• Fixes weekday labels on the notification chart after a daylight-saving change.
• Opens scanned links written in uppercase, and keeps a split nsec in an image from being listed piece by piece.
• Reports an LNURL server's error as "service unavailable" with its message.
• Stops a bare word in a relay hint turning into a fake relay.
• Fixes a StackOverflowError on reply cycles in threads, and a link detector that took 27 s on colon-heavy text.
• Fixes a second reaction with the same emoji missing from the reaction gallery.
• Keeps a feed's subscription when the app comes back right at the end of its background grace period.
• Opens a chat when you tap its name next to a community label.
• Fixes a crash on videos with side-loaded captions. They now show as subtitles, and formats no parser reads are left out.
• Fixes padding under the disappearing bars on My Fitness.
• Fixes the call timer showing blank in Polish, and the web-app profile-edit prompt not naming the changed fields in Polish.
• Shows errors with a severity icon, a selectable message and the stack trace behind Details. Messages queue instead of replacing each other.
• Moves the navigation to Navigation 3. Tabs keep their scroll position, and pinned web apps no longer share one saved screen.

Desktop

• Runs the shared app: the same screens, navigation shell, login, account switcher and settings as Android. The legacy desktop app is deleted, and its accounts, feeds, deck and lock settings are imported.
• Gains what the legacy app lacked: zaps and the reactions row, chess, Git repositories, calendar RSVPs, post editing, markdown with inline media, Cordn groups, the audio-room list, and crash reports offered on the next start.
• Drops the hashtag-spam filter, the WoT badge, the live-now bar, the relay dashboard, the advanced search and the GIF search.
• Adds a 2560 px step to the image quality slider, and starts posts at 1920 px.
• Keeps phone photos upright: compression applies the EXIF orientation, and the metadata strip keeps that one tag. Photos stored sideways were uploaded on their side.
• Strips metadata from photos with two EXIF blocks, as some editors save them. These were uploaded unstripped, GPS location included.
• Keeps the space for images and GIFs without a declared size while they load, and caches decoded GIF frames so a GIF shown again isn't downloaded or decoded again.
• Fixes tall photos spilling over the text and reactions around them.
• Draws QR codes with the shared renderer. Long payloads fall back to a lower error-correction level instead of crashing.
• Plays video like Android: autoplay muted, pause out of view, resume where it stopped, Android-style controls and a now-playing bar. Encrypted media plays, and Tor-routed videos stream through Tor.
• Renders music tracks, podcast episodes, audio tracks, audio headers, voice messages and audio in posts, which drew nothing before, with a waveform player that seeks on click. Podcast soundbites and chapters jump there.
• Plays audio linked in posts, including audio-only .mp4s, in the audio player instead of the video engine ("Can't play this video").
• Fits portrait videos, preloads the next videos in a feed, and no longer blinks to black when one starts.
• Zooms photos and videos from their card to full screen and back.
• Redesigns the now-playing bar with thin sliders and hours in long times, and keeps its stop button in narrow windows.
• Renders PDFs in notes, with a full-window reader that turns pages with the arrow keys.
• Shows OS notifications with the same title and text as Android, when previews are on, and skips muted authors.
• Replaces the bare system error box with a crash window that can send the report to the developers.
• Uses desktop text sizes, a lighter hover, and a menu bar only on macOS. The title bar blends into the app on macOS.
• Sizes the drawer's text and rows for the desktop, and keeps the photo viewer's close button clear of the macOS window buttons.
• Opens a notice instead of crashing on screens the desktop doesn't have yet, and hides their entry points, such as DM calls and the geocache Map tab.
• Drops the media setting's Wi-Fi choice, where it behaved like Always.
• Keeps the top bar on Scheduled posts when there is no post store, instead of a blank screen.
• Shows a text reply button on voice notes where recording isn't available.
• Brings a background window forward on the first click without pressing what is under the pointer, and stops hover while scrolling.
• Fixes the pull-to-refresh indicator staying half-pulled after a mouse-wheel scroll.
• Opens at a larger size and reopens where you left it, and never saves a window collapsed to a sliver.
• Names the app "Amethyst" in Linux docks and app switchers.
• Only hands http, https and lightning links to the OS.
• Keeps accounts, drafts and settings in the Flatpak across restarts. Every Flatpak shipped so far lost them.
• Renames the Flatpak app ID to com.vitorpamplona.amethyst, on runtime 26.08. Remove the old com.vitorpamplona.amethyst.Desktop bundle and log in again (see BUILDING.md).
• Declares GStreamer as a dependency of the Linux .deb and .rpm.

Cli

• Adds amy notes show, thread, reply, quote, react and repost, plus delete, notifications and notes feed --hashtag, on the app's own routing, tagging and thread code.
• Adds amy trust setup, status, sync, check and copy for the Web of Trust network.
• Reports relay_errors from amy fetch, and fails with no_relay_served when no relay served the request. It used to exit 0 with count: 0.
• Streams amy fetch --paginate --limit 0 with flat memory, and logs every REQ with --verbose.
• Runs every amy sync direction through negentropy.
• Answers AUTH in amy fetch.
• Refuses reposts and quotes of NIP-29 group content, and sends group content only to its host relay.
• Shows a zap's sender only when the zap request proves it, so a spoofed zapper no longer shows.
• Fails interaction verbs with read_only on npub-only accounts, filters amy notifications --type at the relay, and applies deletions by address.
• Trims notes post text and rewrites bare npub/note words like the composer.
• Keeps amy's data files owner-only on Windows (NTFS ACLs), without eight warnings per file.

Quartz

• Makes fetchAllPages hold up on production relays: it learns each relay's limit, drops repeated events, paces throttled relays, and walks each filter on its own cursor. Multi-filter walks lost most of their events before.
• Fixes negentropySync finishing "clean" on relays that truncate their set, and makes fetchByIds public.
• Returns null from count at once on relays without NIP-45.
• Fixes a WebSocket dial race that opened two connections per relay, and REQs sent while a WebSocket was still opening being dropped silently.
• Breaking: fetchAllPages drops DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE; pageSize is now an optional cap. Adds streamAllPagesFromPoolWithHooks for walks too large to hold in memory.
• Keeps a relay's CLOSED or connection message in PagedFetchResult.message, and adds an onRelayResult callback to fetchAllPagesFromPool.
• Adds NIP-85 trust network sync and a compact index.
• Types the event kinds found by a census of 743 relays: Marmot 443, NIP-34 cover notes and NIP-C1 CI, Mostro, RoboSats, Ditto, Zapstore identity proofs, Kanban, WalletScrutiny, NIP-4E key transfer, private note storage and more.
• Completes hint providers on 184 kinds and NIP-50 indexing on 72. Existing stores need reindexFullTextSearch().
• Adds RelayUrlNormalizer.normalizeHintOrNull, a strict parser for relay hints from other clients.
• Names every tag relationship with an accessor, such as mentions(), quotedEvents() and recipient().
• Writes the a and f tags NIP-82 releases require, and adds NIP-82 version ordering.
• Verifies Zapstore identity proofs (kind 30509) against an APK signing certificate (RSA, EC, Ed25519) on JVM and Android.
• Reads NIP-4E draft 10044 keys, which were always empty before, and adds EncryptionKeyStore. Parses NIP-69 bonds as decimals.
• Registers FeedDefinitionEvent (31890) and EncryptionKeyListEvent (10044) in EventFactory, and indexes an emoji pack's public shortcodes instead of its encrypted content.
• Breaking: adds abstract BaseRepostEvent.originalAuthorKeys() and ZapReceiptEventInterface.zappedAddresses(), and DecoupledCipher takes an EncryptionKeyStore.
• Shares secp256k1 across every target and one native crypto set across Apple and Linux, and implements LargeSoftCache on iOS.
• Adds a "One-shot Reads" section to CLIENT.md (fetchAll, fetchFirst, fetchAllPages, count), switches it to the Maven artifact and the bundled OkHttp transport, and ships an installable agent skill for projects that use Quartz (quartz/agent-skill/).
• Adds AudioTrackEvent.title(), url(), image() (with mediaUrl(), coverUrl(), displayTitle()), AudioHeaderEvent.url() / mediaUrl(), and a format parameter to MusicTrackEvent.edit.

Build & Documentation

• Continues One UI: Navigation 3 with the navigation shell in commonsUI, more screens and ViewModels moved to commons/commonsUI, a headless BaseAccountViewModel with typed user notices, and feature-based ViewModel packages.
• Adds plans for iOS and web apps on the shared UI.
• Adds Navigation 3 1.1.2 and Apache PDFBox 3.0.8 (desktop only), both Apache-2.0, and removes navigation-compose.
• Turns on incremental compilation for the KMP modules: a one-line change in commons rebuilds in 9.5 s instead of 38.6 s.
• Builds zxing-cpp reproducibly from any NDK path, from a pinned commit.
• Requires a human to review the diff and test on a device before an AI contribution becomes a PR.
• Gives Claude Code and Codex the same rules, skills and pre-push checks: AGENTS.md holds the rules, .agents/skills links to .claude/skills, and the checks live in tools/agent-hooks/. A new check, run before every push and in CI, keeps them in sync.
• Cuts the agent skills from 33 to 14, each rewritten against the current code, so the list fits Codex's skill budget.
• Fixes the Compose string-escaping pre-push check, which never blocked a push.
• Documents Homebrew as autobumped, and verifies the cask instead of submitting it.
• Bumps appCode to 463.

#Amethyst v1.17.0: Cordn, Geocaching, a New QR Scanner, and One UI

Highlights:

• Adds Cordn group chats: MLS groups over an MCP coordinator, with the full chat experience, device migration and encrypted backups.
• Adds Geocaching (NIP-CC): a hub, a map, hunts, and QR-verified finds.
• Rebuilds the QR scanner on CameraX + zxing-cpp. It reads off-axis, blurry and low-contrast codes the old one could not.
• Brings Concord up to spec: pins, Direct Invites, private channels with key rotation, disappearing messages, kick and dissolve.
• Brings the in-app browser close to an installed Chrome PWA, with a new omnibox and a search-engine setting.
• Shows Ultra HDR photos, plays audio posts as cards with picture-in-picture, and shares what you listen to as Now Playing.
• Asks before another app's version of your backed-up lists drops items.
• Moves ~200 screens into shared UI on the way to one UI for Android and Desktop.

New Features

Cordn

• Adds Cordn group chats to the Messages inbox, beside DMs, Marmot and Concord. Messages never enter the event cache, so they are never searchable.
• Builds the chat on the shared components: bubbles, gestures, reactions, quoted replies, day and unread dividers, and the rich text renderer.
• Adds replies, reactions, edits, deletions and pins, interoperable with the reference client. Pins sit in a one-line carousel above the chat.
• Uses the shared composer: @-mentions, emoji shortcodes, GIF keyboard and paste.
• Adds encrypted attachments over Blossom and encrypted voice notes, with the shared upload dialog and media viewer.
• Keeps drafts, unread counts and messages on disk, so rooms no longer open empty after a relaunch.
• Redesigns New group as four steps: name, people, coordinator, and who can add and remove. Shows how many of your people each coordinator can reach.
• Invites the whole roster in one commit, so one failed invite cannot fork the group. People without a key package get a share link instead.
• Finds coordinators from their ContextVM announcements and names them by profile, instead of asking for a 64-character key.
• Adds member management: add by name, npub or NIP-05, remove, rename, and admin mode. Enforces admin rights like the reference client.
• Adds a metadata-exposure card explaining what each coordinator can learn.
• Shares groups as cordn1… links and QR codes, and adds an invitations screen with Join and Decline.
• Adds join requests, coordinator health and management, and a key-package screen that keeps your pool topped up.
• Adds device migration: the old phone shows a handoff code, the new phone scans it and restores every group with its history. Keys are never in the code.
• Adds encrypted backup and restore of groups and their messages.
• Groups all Cordn settings under one entry, and adds Cordn Groups to the drawer and the bottom-bar catalog.

Geocaching (NIP-CC)

• Renders geocache listings and found logs as cards, with a photo hero, map inset, rating, distance and badges.
• Adds a Geocaches hub (Nearby, Map, Hunts, Finds, Mine), cache details with their log thread, and composers for caches, hunts and logs.
• Verifies a find by scanning the cache's QR code. The secret signs once and is never stored.
• Hides hints behind a tap, and detects whether each was written in plaintext or ROT13.
• Sorts Nearby by distance only when you ask.
• Opens caches and hunts from feeds, notifications, naddr links, QR scans and search.

QR Codes

• Rebuilds the scanner on CameraX + zxing-cpp, with autofocus, tap-to-focus, pinch zoom and a torch. The old decoder read 31 of 48 test codes.
• Lets you pick when several codes are in frame or in a picture, and reassembles multi-part codes.
• Reads codes from the gallery, the clipboard and the share sheet, and adds a "Scan QR code" launcher shortcut.
• Explains a code it cannot open instead of closing, and keeps private keys off the result screen and out of the logs.
• Keeps the screen bright while showing your own QR code.

Concord

• Adds pinned messages, with a pin badge in the channel header and jump-to-message.
• Adds Direct Invites: invite by npub, and accept or decline from the hub, Notifications or Messages.
• Adds Public and Private community modes. A ban in a Private community rotates the keys.
• Adds private channels, with Make private, Make public and Rotate key.
• Adds disappearing messages, with a timer from 1 day to 1 year.
• Adds cooperative Kick and community dissolution.
• Moves the Community List to the fragmented kind 33302, migrating the old list.
• Lets you edit your own thread replies and retract a reaction by tapping it again.
• Shows the community description at the top of the channel list.

Marmot

• Adds editing your own messages, compatible with White Noise edits.
• Detects a group this device has fallen out of sync with, and offers a Reset that keeps history.
• Names unnamed groups after their members, and hides names on bubbles in two-person groups, like DMs.
• Commits a member's leave automatically when you are an admin.
• Applies White Noise admin deletions.
• Adds Marmot Groups to the drawer, and makes the list read like the DM list.
• Warns when another device of yours is receiving your invites, and offers to move them here.

Buzz

• Brings Buzz to parity with upstream: artifacts, huddle liveness, team catalog, projects and thread windows.
• Writes channel messages as kind 9, as Buzz's own clients do, and lets you edit them.
• Labels agents as "Agent · managed by Alice", and tells apart members with the same name.

Browser

• Brings the in-app browser close to an installed Chrome PWA: new windows, Tor-aware downloads, fullscreen, find in page, text size, desktop site and crash recovery.
• Redraws every browser surface with one shared pill.
• Reworks the address field into an omnibox with paste-and-go and completions.
• Adds a search-engine setting: DuckDuckGo, Brave, Startpage, Mojeek, Qwant, Ecosia, Kagi, Google or Bing.
• Adds per-site camera, microphone and location permissions, with "Only this time".
• Adds "Add to Home screen". Shortcuts open in Amethyst and wait for Tor.
• Shows page alerts and prompts, which used to be silently cancelled.
• Replaces the WebView error page with a readable one, with Try again and Try without Tor.
• Asks before every download, with the real name, size and source, and blocks files pretending to be another type.

Media

• Shows Ultra HDR photos in HDR, capped at 2x in the feed.
• Plays audio files in posts as a waveform or cover card, with picture-in-picture.
• Shares what you are listening to as a NIP-38 music status, from Amethyst, other apps or desktop players. Off by default.
• Adds captions to NIP-71 videos, with a CC toggle in the player.
• Shows video credits, and checks collaborators who accepted.
• Plays divine.video's adaptive HLS streams.
• Adds Cast on Android 17, and names the format a receiver refuses.

Backups

• Asks before another app's version of your follows, mutes, relays, profile, wallets or settings drops items you backed up.
• Shows a card on Home for each conflict, with one-tap Accept.
• Adds a review screen per conflict that lists every removed, added and changed entry.
• Keeps open conflicts across restarts, and closes them when the other app puts the items back.

Key Backup

• Shows the nsec as a numbered, grouped grid you can copy onto paper. It hides again when the app goes to the background.
• Adds a confirm-then-encrypt flow for the ncryptsec backup.
• Requires passwords of at least 12 characters for new ncryptsecs. Old ones still open.
• Accepts hand-typed keys at login, with uppercase letters, spaces or dashes.

Profiles

• Reads NIP-92 imeta for profile pictures and banners, trying the declared fallback URLs when the main one fails.
• Shows the banner's blurhash while it loads.
• Publishes an imeta for freshly uploaded pictures and banners, on Android and Desktop.

Signing

• Shows a relay login (kind 22242) as a login card in signing prompts, naming each relay exactly as signed. Odd-looking addresses get a "check before signing" warning.
• Makes the event preview in signing prompts read-only, so you can no longer react, zap, vote or RSVP on an event that does not exist yet.

Notifications

• Shows DMs, Marmot groups and Buzz rooms as Android conversations, with per-chat priority and launcher shortcuts.
• Shows inline-reply progress, with a Retry that keeps your text.

Calendar

• Shows follows' "Going" RSVPs on Home, with a toggle in Settings.
• Adds a "Friends going" lens of upcoming events your list attends.

Feeds and Lists

• Renders 3D Simple Nostr Objects, shards and cyberspace avatars, with a full-screen viewer.
• Opens cyberspace region bags, showing how long the search will take.
• Renders every NIP-51 list kind as a card, instead of encrypted text.
• Adds favorite follow sets: star any follow set to use it as a feed.
• Shows prediction markets and ballots as their own cards, and hides kind-38000 spam.
• Shows Zapstore app curation sets, NIP-34 git status events and video curation lists as cards.
• Shows a compact link preview for pages without an OpenGraph image.
• Shows follow-list petnames as a display-name fallback.
• Adds Cash App, Nano, Revolut, silent payments and BIP-353 payment targets.

Messages

• Redesigns the Messages list: unread drives emphasis, and previews show @Name or "Photo" instead of raw links.
• Redesigns the chat screen: softer bubbles, clock times and the avatar outside the bubble.
• Shows sent messages immediately with a sending state, and retries a failed send on tap.
• Plays voice messages and encrypted audio in the waveform player.
• Shows a DM rename as "Alice renamed the conversation".

Uploads

• Falls back through your Blossom servers when an upload fails. The signer is asked once.
• Shows why an upload failed, and lets you remove a failed attachment.

Relays

• Adds an event allow list, roles and claims to relay management (NIP-86).
• Detects when a NIP-29 group has moved to another relay, and supports group banners and a pins.

Android

• Enables ARM Memory Tagging on supporting devices to catch native memory bugs.

Performance

• Loads My Fitness progressively instead of behind a 2–3s spinner.
• Cuts the DEX from 31.1 MB to 29.9 MB by dropping kotlin-reflect.
• Confirms a Marmot group change at the first relay that accepts it, so creating a group no longer waits for the slowest relay.
• Stops the Marmot key-package lookup shortly after the first package arrives, so adding a member no longer takes most of a minute.
• Stops rewriting the whole Marmot message log and group state on every send.
• Removes a duplicate encryption on every Marmot send.
• Loads cached Blossom images straight from disk, also offline.
• Remembers missing Blossom files for 30s, so videos no longer stall 10s per retry.

• Speeds up the 3D renderer 4x and cuts its GC from 51% of a core to 7.7%.
• Speeds up the event cache's list observers 1.3–4x.
• Stops calendar screens rescanning the cache on every event.
• Stops the fullscreen image dialog recomposing on every frame of a swipe.
• Stops rebuilding Notifications and Messages on every Concord update.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Shows Tor status in the drawer. The icon hides when Tor is off and opens Tor settings on tap.
• Fixes devices stuck on "Loading account" forever because they reject the AES/GCM/PKCS7Padding cipher.
• Fixes encrypted stores that could write but not read back.
• Moves settings and account data from SharedPreferences to DataStore, and keys off the deprecated androidx.security. Old files stay for downgrades.
• Fixes Tor never working on 32-bit ARM and x86 devices, which shipped without the Tor library.
• Fixes notifications opening on a black screen after a cold start.
• Opens DM and private reply notifications in their conversation, under the right account.
• Fixes kind-5 deletions matching any author: one user could hide another's note.
• Decrypts private zaps for the zapped user, showing the real zapper.
• Fixes zap goals reading only 0% or 100%.
• Saves Cashu counters before using them, so a crash cannot lock funds at the mint.
• Keeps proof-of-work posts mining in the background, and saves the draft first.
• Fetches your own profile and lists from inbox relays when you have no write relays.
• Fits subscriptions under a relay's filter cap instead of losing the whole REQ.
• Keeps a subscription alive when a relay refuses one kind by name.
• Splits large profile requests, so relays that cap results do not leave authors unnamed.
• Fixes quoted notes stuck on "Loading quoted note...".
• Sends calendar RSVPs to the host's and every invitee's inbox relays.
• Keeps the calendar's view and scroll when you come back to it, and stops appointments flickering.
• Fixes Marmot groups forking on relay echoes, simultaneous commits, and commits that leave you alone.
• Sends Marmot reactions and deletions inside the group, so White Noise sees them.
• Fixes Concord messages being invisible in Accordion and other applesauce clients.
• Fixes Concord joins: channels show at once, and failures are reported.
• Keeps a private channel's old keys, so history survives a rotation.
• Lets a banned Concord member return when re-invited after an unban.
• Fixes Direct Invites that never arrived.
• Fixes Buzz Desktop interop: uploads, mentions, profile, and relay refusal reasons.
• Shows Buzz Join only to non-members and Leave only to members.
• Keeps browser pages on Tor whenever any surface uses Tor, and fails closed when Tor cannot be applied.
• Keeps NIP-07 replies with the page that asked, and holds signing and payments from tabs you are not looking at.
• Brings back black browser tabs and restores the page after Android reclaims memory.
• Stops deleting a private DM from publishing a public NIP-09.

• Fixes NWC notifications for wallets on the new NIP-47 extensions spec.
• Shows the bunker's error when a NIP-46 signer refuses.
• Encrypts every private relay entry, including ones other clients left in plain text.
• Uses plurals for counts, so Czech and Polish read correctly.
• Fixes two release-only crashes on launch in the minified build.

Desktop

• Stops offline users being stuck on "Connecting to Tor...": after 10s it offers a regular connection.
• Reads now-playing from Linux MPRIS, macOS Spotify and Music, and Windows media controls.
• Shows names and avatars for thread replies, and stops holding every note in memory.
• Shows the nsec in the hand-copyable grid, and requires 12-character passwords.
• Uses the shared report dialog, which now also mutes the author.
• Renames the AppImage to amethyst-desktop-<ver>-<arch>.AppImage.

Cli

#Amethyst v1.16.0: My Fitness, BOLT12 Payments, and a Leaner Core

Highlights:

• Adds My Fitness, a dashboard over everything you have trained.
• Moves BOLT12 offers into the profile payment rail, and zaps over BOLT11 when a wallet refuses one.
• Opens the zapped note from wallet history.
• Fixes Blossom uploads, broken on most servers since 1.15.0.
• Takes ~40 MB off every amy distribution.
• Stops counting a relay that hung up as connected.
• Updates Arti to 2.6.0 for two medium-severity fixes.

New Features

My Fitness

• Adds a training dashboard, reached from the drawer or a pinned bottom-bar slot.
• Builds it from both sources: Health Connect, and the kind 1301 workouts you published. Neither is required.
• Summarises four weeks: this week against last, weekly averages, a breakdown by activity, best efforts, active days and a day streak.
• Shows distance, calories, steps, climb and heart rate only when a workout carries them.
• Offers to share a workout only when it is not already published.
• Prefers the Health Connect copy when the same effort appears in both sources — it carries the heart rate, steps and climb the published event drops.
• Filters the Workouts feed by Mine from the top nav.
• Reads workouts in the POWR dialect, which carry start/end and no duration.

Payments

• Renders each BOLT12 offer as a chip in the profile payment rail. Offers were already payable, but only through a small button in the profile header.
• Removes both header wallet buttons. The rail lists everything they reached.
• Shows the zap bolt to recipients who publish an offer and no lightning address. The send path already paid them; the picker just never offered it.
• Falls back to a BOLT11 zap when a wallet refuses an offer and the recipient also publishes a lightning address.
• Retries only refusals that mean nothing was attempted. A PAYMENT_FAILED can still settle later, so retrying it could pay twice.
• Reports a timeout when a wallet never answers, instead of hanging the zap.
• Opens the zapped note when you tap a zap in wallet history.

Performance

• Stops emptying the media connection pool on every client rebuild. Both HTTP clients share one pool, so the proxy check misread every rebuild as a route change.
• Drops pooled connections once per real Tor route change instead.
• Stops debugState() walking the whole cache on every backgrounding. Its nine scans were built eagerly and then discarded unread.
• Signs one Blossom read-auth token per server, not one per racing caller.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Sends the Blossom authorization token as standard padded Base64 again. Deployed servers reject 1.15.0's unpadded base64url, so roughly two uploads in three failed.
• Points the Sovbit default Blossom server at files.sovbit.host.
• Answers a relay's WebSocket CLOSE frame, in both the shared and the Android socket. Without it a closed socket looked connected for up to four minutes, silently discarding everything sent.
• Counts connected relays from the pool's connected flow, which the pool now clears itself whenever it drops a relay.
• Renders a GIF with no imeta as a loading placeholder. It used to collapse the whole note to a gap in the feed until the fetch finished.
• Drains the event-sync outbox before closing the client. Events from the final page were reported Done and never delivered.
• Fixes 34 bugs found auditing commons and commonsUI. Among them: AES-GCM initialised with a spec every JDK rejects; an Onion-Location header from any host re-pointing Tor traffic for 24 hours; a bundled insert wedged after one exception; a URL validator backtracking exponentially per keystroke.
• Uses https in preview data and image-URL placeholders.

Desktop

• Stops a silent account wipe on macOS. One Deny on the Keychain prompt rotated the encryption key and orphaned every saved account.
• Consolidates the keychain into a single vault-v1 item, so a cold boot prompts once.
• Allows first-launch key bootstrap on Linux and Windows.

Cli

• Ships ~40 MB lighter, now that amy no longer drags Compose UI and Skiko behind commons.
• Fails fast when a buzz-agent wrapper cannot be made executable.

Quartz

• Answers a duplicate EVENT with OK true, per NIP-01, and a superseded replaceable the same way. Clients used to get raw SQLite text they could not classify, and retried forever.
• Gives each socket adapter its own session, removing the pool's locking and identity checks.

Build & Documentation

• Updates Arti 2.3.0 → 2.6.0, the JNI crate to 0.22, the NDK to r30 and Rust to 1.98.1. Picks up TROVE-2026-24 and TROVE-2026-27, both reachable in normal use.
• Splits Compose UI out of commons into a new commonsUI module. 236 files moved and no consumer import changed.
• Bumps LightCompressor-enhanced to 2.2.3.
• Drops the unused Guardian Project Maven repository.
• Runs relay-backed tests against geode instead of external relays.
• Clears the compiler, Android Lint and Gradle 10 deprecation warnings.
• Bumps appCode to 461.

#Amethst v1.15.0: Marmot Updates, a Advanced Search Box, and Books, DVM Updates

Highlights:

• Rebuilds Marmot onto the adopted spec — Amethyst groups now interoperate with White Noise, in both directions.
• Makes the search box's tokens real filters, locally and on relays, and puts Android and Desktop on one pipeline.
• Reads publications, wikis, citations, library records and ratings.
• Adds NIP-A3 payment targets to the zap picker, and stops NWC failing in silence.
• Shows which DVMs are alive before you pick one.
• Brings NIP-53 live streaming to Desktop — discover, watch and chat.
• Stops fresh installs stranding on a Tor bootstrap.

New Features

Marmot Groups Catch Up With the Spec

Marmot deprecated the MIP documents in July and MDK followed, which left our implementation — shipped in v1.09.0 — no longer a valid Marmot client under either profile the current spec defines. This release moves it onto the adopted "current profile" and proves it against the reference.

• Implements the MLS extensions draft's app_data_dictionary, the account identity proof v2 that makes a group classifiable at all, and the six group components that replace the single packed marmot_group_data blob.
• Replaces the old same-epoch tie-break — lowest created_at, then event id, both of which a sender picks — with the spec's convergence: candidate branches derived by replaying MLS bytes, a bounded pass, and a six-step comparison over authenticated values only.
• Enforces publish-before-apply. A local commit is prepared on a clone and becomes canonical only once a relay in the group's own scope acknowledges it, so a failed publish can no longer fork this client away from the group.
• Fixes the defects that made us unaddressable: no account could mint a KeyPackage at all; KeyPackages were published as bare bytes instead of a framed MLSMessage; a Commit rebuilt our own leaf from defaults, silently demoting the group creator and making every invite we sent invisible; and a last-resort KeyPackage was discarded after one Welcome, so only the first invite anyone ever sent us worked.
• Fixes two MLS defects that meant nobody but a group's creator could invite into a group of three or more: a joiner was never given its Welcome path secret, and an UpdatePath was decrypted at our own leaf rather than at the node we hold a key for.
• Makes a departure actually take effect. A leaver's SelfRemove was committed and then dropped, so the group believed they were gone while they stayed in the tree holding its keys.
• Adds group disbanding, with the whole Commit shape the spec fixes, and an admin-only action behind its own confirmation.
• Sends attachments in the adopted encrypted-media v2 shape. Every image Amethyst sent into a group was invisible to every other implementation; an admin can now also switch a group over to encrypted attachments.
• Honours disappearing messages, pinned to the epoch that delivered each message rather than to the current setting, with a retention picker at group creation.
• Renders message edits and group system rows, and draws a system row only when this client derived it — a peer's assertion of "X removed Y" is no longer drawn as history.
• Adds several members in one commit, the way MDK does, instead of one commit per invitee.
• Adds a group avatar behind a plain https link, with the canonical URL rules the component requires and an SSRF guard at the renderer.
• Adds push token gossip in the shape the spec adopted, with the kind-451 owner proof, so relaying someone's record cannot repoint, re-sign or restamp it.
• Adds agent text stream previews over the repo's own QUIC stack, in both directions, with certificate pinning instead of blind trust.
• Runs the reference implementation's own fixtures, its portable scenario vectors, and a headless interop harness against MDK 0.9.21 — 29 of 29, both directions, including media in both.

Search

• Ports the vespa-relay search field's token language: from:/to:, since:/until:, #tag, label:, group:, kind:, lang:, domain:, NIP-73 scopes, -exclusions and quoted phrases, drawn as chips over ordinary editable text.
• Runs them. Android handed the raw box — chips and all — to both the relay's NIP-50 search and the local scan, so from:npub1… bitcoin asked relays for the literal text of its own tokens and a kind: chip narrowed nothing.
• Puts both front ends on one SearchPipeline, so a caller cannot skip post-filters or ranking. Android had never applied -term exclusions or the reply/media pseudo-kinds, and Relevance sorted by date.
• Opens a picker under a half-written kind:, and gives the people picker the composer's own — NIP-05 resolution, relay lookups and follow ranking included.
• Names what a chip stands for: a group's name instead of its opaque id, a city instead of a geohash.
• Seeds the box with the filter of the screen it was opened from, across 17 more feeds, and remembers what you searched for on Android.
• Says what it is waiting on: the spinner now turns while a relay still owes an EOSE, and tapping it lists the relays outstanding.
• Answers with one kind window derived from Quartz instead of three hand-kept lists — the audit found fifteen searchable, renderable kinds the search had never asked for, pictures and every video kind among them.
• Hides deletion (kind 5) and vanish (kind 62) events from results.

Reading: Publications, Library, Wiki and Ratings

• Gives a kind-30040 publication a table of contents you can read from, listing sections by a and e tag and naming each row from the index alone.
• Renders kind-30041 sections: AsciiDoc converted to the same CommonMark renderer long-form uses, with wikilinks resolved to nevents and naddrs.
• Gives a chapter a crumb back to its book and a pager through the book.
• Parses and renders the library kinds — 31/32/33 citations, 30045 directories, 30142 learning resources and 32176 Blossom piece indexes — and shows a learning resource's attached PDF inline instead of as a blue link.
• Parses and renders the NIP-54 wiki kinds (818 merge requests, 819 acceptances, 30819 redirects) and kind-17 external reactions.
• Parses kind-34259 entity ratings and kind-31987 relay reviews, and rebuilds the rating card around cover art and stars that actually fill.
• Renders kind 0 as a profile card, in the feed and in thread view, instead of raw JSON.
• Links each Birdex species to its Wikidata entry.

Payments and Zaps

• Offers a NIP-A3 pay-to hand-off in the zap picker, gated on an installed app actually resolving the URI and wearing that app's own icon.
• Hides on-chain zap amounts the wallet cannot fund, checked against the exact coin selection the send path uses.
• Names the payee on outgoing NWC transactions (NWC-06), and only claims a binding for a zap request the provider accepted.
• Never lets a NIP-47 refusal or timeout reach you as silence — a wallet answering QUOTA_EXCEEDED or RESTRICTED showed nothing at all.
• Stops sending optional NIP-47 params as null, which some wallets refuse, and stops downgrading to NIP-04 encryption on a cold info cache.
• Adds a Block Relay button to the relay NOTIFY payment prompt, so a paid relay asking on every reconnect can be answered once.

DVM Liveness

• Adds DVM heartbeats (kind 11998), hides DVMs whose last beat is older than 15 minutes from Discover, and marks the rest with an offline dot or banner.
• Fetches beats from each DVM's own outbox relays, not only the discovery selection, so a live DVM your relays do not carry stops looking dead.

Relay Login

• Makes the prompt's "remember" switch mean the same thing for both answers. It was read only by the Log in button, so refusing with it on wrote nothing and the same dialog came back on the next reconnect.
• Relabels the buttons to the answer they give, and adds "Never, all relays" opposite "Always, all relays", both behind one confirmation that names the consequence.
• Stops an account-wide answer being swallowed when the confirmation outlives the prompt's 60-second window, and answers the prompts queued behind it.

Everything Else

• Shares your screen in a call, on Android.
• Opens a real file picker for <input type="file"> — it was a silent no-op in the in-app browser, in nSites and in napplets — and offers the camera where a mobile browser would.
• Exposes NIP-44 encrypt and decrypt on the injected window.nostr, so a web app logging in with Amethyst can seal a NIP-59 gift wrap.
• Emits the uppercase D day-index tags on kind 31923, so calendar events are discoverable by date.
• Notifies on the rest of NIP-34: PR replies, merges, closes, reopens and drafts. A merged PR used to arrive on the device and go nowhere.
• Remembers which side-menu sections you collapsed (#4010).
• Leaves the always-on notification card at the bare relay count, with the per-relay breakdown behind a "Show details" action.
• Lifts the 3-relay cap on Concord invite links, which blew up the invite button for any community with more.
• Saves videos to Movies/ instead of Pictures/ (#4009).

Performance

• Draws Amethyst's own icons from a generated font rather than rasterising an ImageVector per card: frame duration P90 -10.7%, overrun P90 -17.4%.
• Defers feed animation transitions until there is something to animate: overrun P90 -19.4%.
• Stops copying whole GIFs into RAM before decoding them. One 69.8 MB GIF cost 66 MB of heap plus 66 MB of native memory and ~700 ms of pure copying, on every scroll back into view.
• Restores the ImageDecoder path for still images, which the same identity check had cost every network image in the app.
• Makes the concurrent-fetch de-dupe actually work — it was rebuilt per request, so it never saw a second caller — rate-limits the cache reconciler to once a day, and reclaims cache files orphaned by a process death.
• Stops blocking an OkHttp thread to sign Blossom read-auth, which could occupy every per-host slot on a gated host, and collapses a cold burst onto one signature.
• Asks for many addresses in one relay filter instead of one filter each: opening a 240-section publication went from a black screen for ~2 minutes at 120% CPU to first paint at ~22s.
• Rewrites Curve25519 field arithmetic on 10 limbs of radix 2^25.5 and runs the ladder without allocating: x25519 541us → 121us, and against MDK create_group/1 goes from 4.7x slower to 1.5x while send_app_message is 6.5x faster.
• Stops FilterMatcher allocating once per event — three separate ways, on a path that runs tens of thousands of times per keystroke during a search.
• Adds an allocation-free read path for NIP-50 indexable text to all 133 searchable kinds, pinned byte-for-byte against the write path.
• Shares one IME-inset holder per window instead of one per call site.
• Prices the NIP-19 bracket peel and makes it free.
• Defers log message construction to the lambda overload, including the loops the first sweep's line-anchored greps missed.
• Bounds the route-text scan by the budget rather than the input.
• Bounds in-flight on-device AI work and stops blocking IO threads on it.
• Single-flights the LNURL endpoint resolver: a zap-receipt burst was making ~20 requests to one provider per user action.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Stops a fresh install stranding on a Tor bootstrap. The watchdog fired once per Connecting span and a timeout produces no status change, so after exactly two attempts it went silent — permanently. Arti now bootstraps on demand instead of blocking the whole directory download behind its lifecycle lock.
• Classifies the app's stand-in relays like the user's own until their lists arrive, so a new install stops routing everything over Tor by construction: first relay socket moved from login+5.9s to login+1.2s, and events ingested by the 20s census from 0–2,590 to 3,719–6,051.
• Only substitutes default relays when there is no event, not when the list is empty — publishing an empty search or inbox list is a choice, and the app was overriding it.
• Stops relay list updates wiping the public entries another client wrote (#4075).
• Recovers IME padding when Compose's insets listener freezes. A back gesture could leave a keyboard-sized gap app-wide, permanently, until the activity was killed; the correction is now 120ms rather than 400ms.
• Keeps TextFieldState writes on the UI thread, fixing a crash inside Compose's undo bookkeeping on the keyboard's own callback.
• Follows the phone's light/dark setting on the launch splash, and carries a pinned LIGHT/DARK choice into it through the per-application night mode.
• Uses the HLS master playlist and its full quality ladder, sizes the ladder to the player rather than to a fixed policy, caps it on metered connections, and fixes a picture-in-picture race.
• Caps MediaSession artwork so the platform never re-scales it — a crash on ROMs that recycle the source bitmap.
• Stops cancelling ML Kit GenAI inference futures, which killed the process from a thread the app does not own. The composer cancelled one on every keystroke.
• Makes the full-screen viewer follow the system bars instead of reserving the strip they would occupy, and brings the PDF viewer's chrome to parity.
• Caps navigation route text arguments. Sending a crash report to the developer crashed the app: ICU's regex stack overflows at ~100,000 characters and reports "no match" rather than an error.
• Narrows the FileProvider external root to the app-specific directory.
• Stops deleted lists showing their UUID in the feed filter picker (#3949).
• Restores GIF insertion on the comment reply screens, where a keyboard GIF did nothing and a shared one threw away the reply in progress, and wires it into four more composers.
• Keeps calls alive when the system destroys MainActivity, releases the screen-capture Surface instead of leaking one per session, and stops reopening the camera during teardown.
• Stops reporting coroutine cancellation as a signer failure, which surfaced as a "signer not found" toast on essentially every fast settings toggle.
• Stops a picker's scrolling from dragging the top and bottom bars with it.
• Tints the un-boosted repost icon like the rest of the action row, and fixes the liked and reposted colours.
• Stops labelling the mixed media feed "Shorts" — two different destinations in the bottom-bar picker carried the same label.
• Converts Android string escaping to Compose escaping inside the Crowdin sync, and gates it in CI, after three syncs in a row reintroduced ~2,900 escaped apostrophes that render with a visible backslash.

Desktop

• Adds NIP-53 live streaming: a "Live now" section in Discover with ranking and search, a per-column live bar on the Following and Global feeds, and a watch overlay with player, live chat and live-mode controls, openable from anywhere.
• Routes kinds 30311 and 1311 into the desktop cache, which had no channel store at all, with a 500-message chat cap.
• Shares the unified search pipeline, and gives the spotlight the same people picker — typing from: there opened nothing.
• Surfaces macOS notification-permission errors and times the request out, rather than parking forever on a banner the user missed.

Cli

• Redesigns amy status around who is signed in and what they saved, adding relay config, follows, Marmot messages, Concord communities and the operator key — and fixing a store report that read 0 events on the default backend.
• Drives the Marmot work end to end: current-profile group creation, retention, media policy and transfer, disband, and amy marmot stream.

Quartz

• Adds the adopted Marmot profile: the app-data dictionary carrier, account identity proof v2, the six group components, the lifecycle state machine, branch selection, the bounded convergence pass, the candidate-graph builder, encrypted media v2, the kind-451 push owner proof and the agent-text-stream codecs.
• Replaces org.json with kotlinx.serialization across the remaining sources.
• Backs linuxX64's LargeCache with a striped-lock hash table instead of copy-on-write, which was O(n) per put and not thread-safe. Filling 100k entries goes from 70ms to 15ms with 1 GC instead of 24 — and the whole linuxX64 suite now passes (3,495 tests, from 78 failures), so the CI leg runs all of it.
• Matches java.net.URLEncoder on native and drops the urlencoder dependency. The two implemented different specifications, so Android and iOS emitted different bytes for the same magnet link or NWC deep link.
• Routes the roles the NIP-50 search extractor was stranding in the body tier: 19 kinds gain a branch, including the marketplace and Podcasting 2.0 families whose titles could never reach a title band.
• Gives the Trusted List member score a 0–100 scale, reads the generic Trusted List entry in a NIP-85 Treasure Map, carries Map entries in both halves of the 10040, and indexes Trusted List titles for NIP-50 search.
• Holds a transport failure as provisional for one retry when a relay drops the socket between our EVENT and its OK, and restores pool membership first so the retry dials something.
• Waits out the second instead of stamping created_at in the future when superseding a replaceable event.
• Adds DvmHeartbeatEvent (kind 11998) and the publication, library, wiki and rating parsers.

Build & Documentation

• Bumps Kotlin to 2.4.20, Compose Multiplatform to 1.12.0 and AGP to 9.4.0, plus the rest of the version catalog.
• Executes the commons migration sweep: 38 relayClient files, the OkHttp client stack, 37 model and service singles, the top-nav feed datasource layer and the search history move to commons; the 12 typealias shims are deleted and their 1,165 imports repointed; 25 files are promoted from jvmAndroid to commonMain after a per-file concurrency review.
• Migrates 2,565 string keys — about 105,800 locale entries — to the shared Compose resource catalog, and gates the orphaned-translation and escaping traps pre-push and in CI.
• Publishes desktop test reports when the desktop job fails, which was the only test-running job with none.
• Renames the geode Homebrew formula to geode-relay, since geode is permanently reserved for Apache Geode, and fixes a style violation in both formulae.
• Adds marmotBench, a head-to-head against MDK's own benchmark, reporting bytes allocated per operation alongside latency.

#Amethyst v1.14.0: New Share Intents, Relay Login, and a Much Faster Start

Highlights:

• Improves NIP-84 Highlights — composer, feed, and share intent.
• Redesigns relay login (NIP-42) and ends the per-relay prompt storm.
• Adds Share targets to Pictures, Videos, Shorts and Torrents feeds.
• Adds a screen that explains why every relay subscription exists.
• Fixes the cold-start out-of-memory kill and cuts time to first paint.
• Brings Desktop to parity on profiles, DMs, settings and key backup.
• Adds Trusted Lists (kinds 30392–30395) to Quartz.

New Features

Highlights (NIP-84)

• Adds a Highlight composer, with an annotation field, a passage editor, and a source reference that can be a Nostr event or a web URL.
• Adds a Highlights feed, filterable by authors, follows, hashtags and geohashes.
• Accepts shared text from any app as a new highlight.

Feeds and Composing

• Adds four home feed content types: Pictures (NIP-68), Videos and Shorts (NIP-71), and Torrents (NIP-35), each with its own toggle.
• Adds "New Picture", "New Short" and "New Video" share targets, so media shared into Amethyst opens the matching composer instead of a text note with a link.
• Adds a bulk audience picker to the short-note composer: search people lists and follow packs, review the members, then add them all at once.
• Adds a poll results page with per-option vote counts and a filterable voter list, replacing the feed card's four-avatar preview.
• Shows rich previews for comments scoped to external content (NIP-73), both in the "replying to" line and as the thread's title.
• Offers a "Copy Original / Copy Translated" chooser when copying a note that has been translated.
• Opens the edit screen when a draft reply is tapped in a thread.

Relay Login (NIP-42)

• Redesigns the relay login permissions screen. Explicit exceptions, relays blocked by your block list, and recent logins are now three separate sections.
• Starts new accounts on "always log in" instead of deciding per relay.
• Remembers a login for the rest of the session when you answer without ticking "remember", so a reconnect stops asking again.
• Honors "always log in" for relays your own account does not publish to.
• Makes the "reading someone I follow" toggle reachable — it sat behind a first-party gate that could never be true.
• Counts NIP-29 groups and Concord communities as rooms you joined, so their host relays authenticate under "my relays and venues".
• Waits for an auth challenge to resolve rather than letting the fetch time out.

Relay Traffic, Explained

• Records why every relay-bound filter exists — its purpose, the entities it serves and the account that asked — and renders that back on a new screen.
• Fixes the multi-account subscriptions that screen exposed as never running.
• Breaks the resource ledger down by cause, so it reports why relay data was spent, not just how much.
• Stops the automatic "High resource usage detected" dialog on app open. The ledger keeps recording and Settings still shows the report.

Chats, Groups and Communities

• Mutes a public chat from a long press in Messages or from the channel menu.
• Deletes (kind 9008) and archives NIP-29 channels, with the Buzz community UI to match.
• Keeps a channel invite's replies, reactions and zaps inside the relay that sent the invite, instead of broadcasting them to your outbox.
• Derives Buzz channel invites from cached membership notices, so they stop appearing and disappearing.
• Redesigns channel invite cards as feed rows, with the person who added you as the row's author.
• Shows the hosting relay's name chip on relay group message headers.
• Splits the Concord Control Plane's stream key so a staff-held control_root write-gates it (CORD-02 §2).
• Closes the Concord CORD-05/06 invite lifecycle: an Invite List, a re-mint on Refounding, and revocation.
• Stops pinning Concord entities whose chain crosses a Refounding, which was discarding their newer state on every refold.
• Closes seven Concord soft-ban holes — a banned member kept control_root, half the Control Plane never read the banlist, and the invite button still worked.

Everything Else

• Makes the left drawer configurable, so entries you don't use can be hidden.
• Adds ngit-specific search to the Git Repositories screen.
• Supports IPv6 overlay relays (Yggdrasil) with RFC 5952 canonical addresses, fixing one relay counting as two and Tor-proxying an unreachable overlay.
• Adds a Nostr badge watermark to the notification icons, reshapes the mention icon, and adds dedicated reply and mark-as-read action icons.
• Runs verified NIP-5D artifacts in an opaque srcdoc sandbox behind a first-head CSP, and advertises only the NAP domains actually implemented.

Performance

• Scans NIP-19 entities, hashtags and legacy #[n] references without ICU. On Android, Regex.matchAt copied the whole note content into native memory per candidate, which grew a cold start to ~1.9 GB and got the app killed.
• Scans note content by literal instead of restarting the regex engine at every position in every note.
• AOT-compiles the relay ingest path with a baseline profile. Release cold-start ingest was spending 36× more CPU interpreting bytecode than verifying signatures.
• Demotes the ~650 relay and ingest worker threads below the UI thread, so the connect storm cannot starve the first frames (~40% faster first paint).
• Reclaims memory under heap pressure and stops leaking sandboxed WebView Activities.
• Bounds the duplicate-frame decoder cache in both size and age.
• Stops blocking coroutine workers on synchronous OkHttp calls, which released their CPU permits and starved the dispatcher.
• Stops the outbox getting slower with every publish — it rebuilt an immutable map per send, copying every pending entry.
• Stripes the subscription-state lock per relay, ending the ANR convoy that had 37 of 52 workers spinning on one lock.
• Memoizes Concord guestbook envelope opens, so the fold stops re-decrypting the whole buffer on every arrival.
• Caches the painter on its first miss in painterRes.
• Optimizes the proof-of-work mining hot loop for the Android runtime.
• Skips the ~220 ms system call when the app locale has not actually changed.
• Confines the Blossom cache probe and server resolver to the IO dispatcher, and re-probes it when the toggle flips.
• Releases dead subscription rows, so connect and disconnect stop scanning every subscription ever created.
• Prefetches NIP-73 external-content preview URLs so those cards stop popping in mid-scroll.
• Adds fixed-size hex codecs for 32- and 64-byte values.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Settles the keyboard inside navigation, so leaving a screen mid-animation stops stranding imePadding across the whole app.
• Routes the draft-saving editors through KeyboardAwareBackHandler, so a predictive back gesture no longer races the IME close.
• Raises the keyboard again when you tap a field in an embedded tab that was already focused.
• Pads for the soft keyboard in full-screen napplet hosts on Android 15+.
• Fixes the crash when switching between two pinned web-app tabs.
• Stops drawing a blank parent card above a top-level community post.
• Fixes Cashu wallet balances reading low: proofs are now backfilled past the relay's page cap and history is paged.
• Keeps PDF previews stable — the page ratio is cached, so scrolling back no longer collapses the card and replays the grow-in animation.
• Stops rendering non-media NIP-94 files as video.
• Repairs imeta MIME types written as a bare subtype, so those images can be shared again.
• Works around a fatal media3 crash on Low-Latency HLS streams.
• Drives the "Can't reach this relay over Tor" banner from live socket state instead of a bare six-second timer.
• Stops a lone repost from being bundled into the always-on service notification, where it inherited the ongoing flag and refused to swipe away.
• Fails push registration loudly on an HTTP error, instead of caching a token for a device that will never receive anything.
• Listens for location only while foregrounded, and fixes the meter that reported 7 hours of listening against 9 seconds of foreground.
• Excludes quote characters from parsed URLs.
• Fixes the OpenGraph meta parser losing every tag after an apostrophe inside a comment or script, which broke link previews on some sites.
• Requests the follower-count provider's kind 30382 cards, so the count stops rendering as --.
• Gives the invite roster line's member count its unit, so a bare number no longer reads as counting the avatars beside it.
• Removes the recent-poster facepile from Concord and Buzz channel rows.
• Renders every NIP-71 video subtype through the shared interface.
• Reworks the chat bubble reply swipe on lower-level pointer APIs, so it only claims the gesture once the motion is clearly horizontal.
• Turns the default log into a boot narrative instead of a firehose.
• Converts the drawer's hidden-count to a plural, fills the untranslated backlog for Czech, German, Swedish and Brazilian Portuguese, restores placeholders dropped from German and Polish plurals, and drops an unused plural.

Desktop

• Enriches the DM composer and message list: emoji picker with custom emoji, @mentions, reply-quoting with jump-to-original, Nostr-native GIF search, rich message rendering, per-message image quality, and encrypted file uploads.
• Redesigns Settings as a searchable accordion of labeled cards, with expand/collapse-all and a filter over titles and keywords.
• Brings the profile screen to parity: banner, rich-text bio, a CLINK offer field, six new tabs (Followers, Following, Relays, Bookmarks, Yours, Zaps received) and header actions.
• Adds a guided "save your keys" step on first run and a key backup in Settings. Android gets a soft nudge after signup.
• Loads metadata and reactions only for what is on screen, through the shared finders in commons, and unsubscribes when it leaves.
• Enables the master notification switch when the OS permission is already granted.
• Publishes Windows arm64 and Linux arm64 desktop builds.

Cli

• Gives amy the Concord key lifecycle it was missing: accept a promotion, follow a Refounding, perform one, and recover when left out of it.
• Publishes Windows and Linux arm64 assets for amy and geode.
• Reports "no relays" only when there really were none, and pins the buzz wrapper copies against the argument surface they call.

Quartz

• Adds Trusted Lists (kinds 30392–30395), the aggregate counterpart to NIP-85 Trusted Assertions, and indexes their labels for NIP-50 search.
• Fixes a SharedKeyCache collision that could return one peer's shared secret for another peer's message, and compares MACs in constant time.
• Measures NIP-66 relay health from traffic the client already makes, streams probe verdicts as relays answer, checks read and write separately, lets a monitor publish what it learned without dialling, and merges verdicts into the record they replace instead of overwriting it.
• Measures rtt-open as the transport handshake, not the time the call spent queued in the dispatcher.
• Records sync coverage per kind rather than one interval per filter, keys its persistence with a typed band, closes a drained leg, and terminates a paged walk against a relay that ignores until.
• Strikes a host out and tracks its unreachability with publish-safe semantics, so a dead host stops being retried at the same rate as a live one.
• Sizes negentropy reconcile windows from the caller's own index, states the relay's cap, and lets a caller decline an id before its body crosses the wire.
• Normalizes every accessory timeout to an idle window, drops the maxTotalMs ceiling that cut healthy fetches, and stops fetchAllPages cropping a streaming page.
• Stops COUNT inheriting the REQ page size, which capped a count at 500.
• Suspends the incoming-message chain down to SubscriptionListener.onEvent, so a consumer that cannot keep up no longer blocks every shared worker.
• Compares every filter in FiltersChanged, not just the first.
• Fixes an InProcessWebSocket race that delivered a connect-time AUTH challenge before onOpen.
• Adds StoreQueryContext, carrying the NIP-42-authenticated caller identity into observer-relative stores.
• Adds a NIP-50 search grammar (quoted phrases, negation) with weighted field extraction, and shares the store-semantics rules across implementations.
• Parses metadata leniently everywhere, and recovers blank, single-element and malformed kind-0 content instead of dropping the profile.
• Parses ServiceType without splitting on a separator that may not be there.
• Declares pointer hints on Report, ChatMessage, Classifieds and ChannelCreate.
• Refreshes created_at while mining, so a post that takes minutes to mine does not publish stale.
• Decouples the LocalCache and Account god classes into single-purpose collaborators, 3,800 lines lighter, with no behavior change.

Build & Documentation

• Adds a :baselineprofile module that records a real startup journey, replacing the hand-authored profile's wildcards.
• Notarizes the macOS DMG and verifies it, adds libegl1 to the arm64 .deb dependencies, and moves the Homebrew and Winget bumps onto a maintainer machine.
• Shrinks the mirror-sync throughput corpus on CI, which had been timing out the test-geode job for weeks.
• Confines the QUIC stream drainer to the producer's event loop, deflaking it under parallel test load.
• Hardens workflow-ship.sh and pins it with a regression harness.
• Adds three store-implementer skills: event store semantics, NIP-85 trusted assertions and searchable events.
• Bumps 30+ dependencies plus Gradle, Compose, Firebase, Media3, Ktor and OkHttp.

Highlights:

• Fixes the soft keyboard getting stuck open in chats.
• Fixes duplicate items crashing the Discover and feed lists.
• Adds per-event-kind toggles to the Home feed.
• Signs Blossom read requests so media on auth-gated hosts loads.

New Features

• Adds per-event-kind toggles for the Home feed.
• Signs Blossom read-auth so media hosted on auth-gated servers displays.
• Lets admins delete a Buzz channel or relay group.
• Honors CORD-02 §9: seals dissolved Concord communities read-only.
• Allows single-character (continent) geohash precision in location channels.

Performance

• Preemptively signs Blossom reads for known auth-gated hosts, so the first request succeeds instead of round-tripping through a 401.
• Makes the observeNotes dedup lock-free and race-safe under concurrent consumption.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Stops the soft keyboard state from getting stuck open.
• Stops nav-bar padding from stacking on top of the IME inset in chats.
• Unions nav-bar and IME insets on the two remaining bare-Scaffold forms.
• Prevents a duplicate LazyColumn key from observeNotes on addressable updates, and keeps the list sorted while deduping by id.
• Dedupes Discover apps by coordinate to avoid duplicate LazyGrid keys.
• Dedups EventListMatchingFilter (observeEvents) and hardens its emission contract.
• Authenticates to the NIP-29 host relays of joined groups so private group content loads.
• Keeps the back arrow visible until the exiting screen finishes leaving.
• Bounds the context shown around a highlight to a window, trims edge blank lines, and collapses scraped whitespace.
• Attributes a highlight to the author-marked p tag and drops alt captions.
• Renders custom emoji in highlight comments.
• Only tags explicit http(s) URLs as r references.
• Opens a Concord community by tapping its name, not just its avatar.
• Leaves room for the FAB in the Concord community channel list.
• Makes the Buzz Messages toggle read the list it claims to change.
• Renders the Buzz channel recent-poster facepile with the standard avatar.
• Separates Buzz community rows with a hairline and drops the grey slab behind the Channels section.
• Aligns leave vs remove-from-messages actions across chat types.
• Normalizes top nav bar title font sizes and weights.
• Raises the background mobile-data trigger to 500 MB and doubles the report-prompt thresholds.
• Removes orphaned buzz_dm_hide translations.

Desktop

• Caches the OS Keyring handle so startup only prompts once.
• Makes the "Enable OS notifications" button actually enable them.
• Reloads the visible page when switching accounts.

Quartz

• Stops Namecoin lookup exceptions from leaking through resolve().
• Uses Hex.isHex64 instead of a regex for the blob-id check.

Build & Documentation

• Resolves the LocalCache override, dropdown deprecation, and shadowed extension warnings.
• Extracts duplicated string literals.

• Adds Concord Support (Armada).
• Adds NIP-29 Groups (Flotilla).
• Adds Buzz workspaces, with agents.
• Adds a Remote Signer (NIP-46).
• Adds Git Clone Support (NIP-34).
• Adds Relay Auth permissions (NIP-42).
• Adds BitChat Geo-channels.

• Adds BOLT12 payments and zaps (NIP-B1).
• Adds proof-of-work (NIP-13) publishing.
• Redesigns chat messages.
• Redesigns accent colors.
• Redesigns push notifications

New Features

Web Apps, Sites & the Browser

• Opens Nostr web apps (NIP-5D napplets) and static websites (NIP-5A nSites) directly inside Amethyst, rendered in an isolated, keyless sandbox process that cannot reach your private key, storage, or data.
• Adds an in-app Browser — a drawer entry and pinnable bottom-bar tab — with an omnibox address bar, autocomplete, history, favorites, recents, and captured favicons. The address bar is drawn by Amethyst, never by the page, so its URL cannot be spoofed.
• Adds "Log in with Amethyst": nSites open with a NIP-07 window.nostr provider, so standard Nostr web apps can sign in and request signatures as your active account — consent-gated, sign-only, and scoped per site.
• Lets web apps, with your permission, pay through your wallet (NWC), run live relay subscriptions and queries, and read your identity (profile, lists, zaps, badges) — every capability brokered and permission-gated (once / this session / always). Payments always prompt with the amount shown.
• Pins favorite web apps to the bottom bar as embedded, swap-in-place tabs that stay warm between visits.
• Discovers web apps: the empty browser suggests a curated list plus nSites and napplets published by people you follow, and profiles gain an "Apps & Sites" tab.
• Adds a Connected Apps / permissions screen to review and revoke what each app can do.
• Routes nSite web traffic through Tor by default when Tor is active, with a per-site onion/globe toggle.
• Gives each account its own web storage — cookies, logins, and site data no longer leak between the accounts on your device. Sites you were already signed into are signed out once; signing back in stores the session under the account you are using, and switching away and back keeps it.
• Scopes granted permissions per account too, so each app asks once more under each account you use it with. A grant by one account no longer applies to the others.

Communities (Concord)

• Adds Concord: an end-to-end-encrypted communities protocol with channels, membership, invites, roles, moderation, and history — reachable from a hub in the drawer and pinnable to the bottom nav.
• Creates and edits communities with encrypted icon/banner, relay editing, and channel management.
• Invites and joins via minted invites with QR codes, tappable invite links, paste-to-redeem from Search, deep links, and direct member invites.
• Chats in channels with a rich composer (@mentions, custom-emoji autocomplete, reply preview), encrypted image messages, reactions, replies, and typing indicators.
• Adds threaded replies (inline or minichat modes) and delivery ticks for your own messages.
• Groups channels by community in Messages with last-message previews, unread dots, facepiles, live typing, and per-type load toggles.
• Adds moderation: ban/unban with read-time enforcement, role grants, a "Make admin" toggle, and a full member roster. A ban hides a member's posts for everyone else; removing their access to the community's keys takes a Refounding.
• Backfills channel history across epochs, paging back to the true start of a channel.
• Surfaces Concord replies and reactions on the Notifications tab with a community pill.
• Lets authors edit their own channel messages (kind 3302). Latest edit wins, and it is non-destructive, so reactions and replies stay attached. Only the original author's edits take effect.

Git Collaboration (NIP-34)

• Browses Nostr git repositories in-app: a Git Repositories feed and a per-repo screen with README and Code tabs.
• Reads code with branch/tag switching, file search, image preview, commit history, syntax highlighting, and word-level diff highlighting.
• Reviews patches and pull requests with computed diffs and status actions; PR updates surface on the repo screen. The code browser needs a repository with an http(s) clone URL.
• Manages issues: Issues and Patches & PRs tabs split by open/closed, issue labels with filtering, and a full-screen New Issue composer.
• Edits a repository announcement from the repo screen, bookmarks repositories, and filters the feed to your own repos.
• Adds a project-home dashboard with stats, languages, recent activity, and last-commit rows.

Location Channels

• Adds Location Channels: geohash-based public rooms that interoperate with BitChat, browsable from a dedicated drawer list and pinnable to the bottom nav.
• Posts under an unlinkable per-area anonymous identity, or opt in to post as your real account. An optional nickname survives restarts, but it is a single handle reused in every area — setting one links your posts across areas.
• Teleports to any place from a map picker or the feed-filter dialog to read and post to distant rooms, and follows a teleported place to keep its feed.
• Reacts, zaps, and replies on location messages, with a "live near you" bubble on Home surfacing nearby rooms.
• Adds a "pick on map" location picker to the short-note and all other composers.

Groups (NIP-29)

• Adds relay groups: group chat, a discovery feed with a top-bar filter and favorites, and join / leave / create / invite actions.
• Adds subgroups (parent/child hierarchy), custom roles (kind 39003), threads, and message pinning.
• Shares groups via naddr and invite links with one-tap join; inline group links render as self-loading cards.
• Adds a map-based location picker when creating a group, and lets pinned group tabs act as bottom-nav roots.

Buzz (Agent Workspaces)

• Adds Buzz: a self-hosted workspace where humans and AI agents build together on a relay you own, built on the NIP-29 relay-group family with plaintext content so the relay can run search, audit, and workflows. Reachable from a "Buzz Workspaces" bottom-nav tab and the drawer Feeds list.
• Renders workspace channels natively and composes messages; sections a community into Channels, Forums, inline DMs, and an Agent Console; and renders forum posts as Concord-style threads with the full chat composer.
• Adds an agent-owner console with cost and personas tabs, an agent-fleet cost aggregator, live observer telemetry, persona create/edit, and NIP-OA attestation issuance.
• Adds live typing indicators, presence dots, collapsible sections with unread and stars, a workspace canvas viewer and edit composer, and a bot "Working…" indicator.
• Invites people to a channel or community and mints invite links; redeems invite links (intercepted into the in-app browser) and auto-invites mentioned non-members.
• Wires Buzz direct messages end to end, titles a DM by its participant, and surfaces Buzz DMs in the Notification feed rendered as messages.
• Discovers workspaces and DMs via the relay's own kinds, imports workspace channels from a relay in "Find groups", and routes Tor workspaces to clearnet when needed.
• Adds a shared Agent Work board. Any channel member files a task, upvotes to reprioritize it, and watches the workspace's agent carry it to a pull request. Jobs that ship directly and gated workflow runs fold into one board, grouped by Needs approval / Working / Up next / Shipped.
• Approves or denies a gated run in place. The "Approve & open PR" step authorizes a push and PR, but never merges or deploys. Adds a confirm step, an approver and workflow-definition picker, and Buzz Agent Persona editors for model, provider, and runtime.
• Asks before adding you to a channel someone else put you in (Accept / Ignore / Leave). Narrates channel changes as plain-language system lines: "Bob added Alice", topic, visibility, and TTL changes, and more.
• Notifies the requester when their agent job finishes or fails. Lets a self-hosted geode relay be the private Buzz workspace via a member-and-agent membership policy.

Chat & Messages

• Redesigns message rendering across every chat — DMs, public chats, groups, and communities — with modern bubbles, swipe-to-reply, send motion and press feedback, per-author name colors, jumbo emoji, day headers drawn above the messages they introduce, and a timestamp on the last message of each author run.
• Replaces the message 3-dot menu with a compact two-stage long-press sheet that unpacks wrapping reactions and zap-amount presets in place.
• Renders channel admin events as centered system messages, and hides a reply quote when it targets the message directly above.
• Replaces the Messages FAB speed-dial with a full-screen, color-coded new-conversation chooser, and adds a Messages settings screen with a grouped-by-relay view and per-type load toggles.
• Warns about DMs from senders reported by people you follow: flags a reported counterpart on the chat-list row and inside the room, with a per-user report-warning flow.

Notifications

• Redesigns push notifications into per-kind, observable, richly-rendered notifications that resolve inline @npub mentions to display names, render an inline image link as the big picture, and attribute a reply's parent to its real author.
• Adds push notifications for Buzz DMs and for bare reactions and reposts to your notes, with repost-mute parity. Auto-dismisses a tray notification once its event is read in-app.
• Rebuilds the in-app Notifications tab with infinite-scroll paging via a look-ahead buffer, time-based history paging with in-feed load markers, and auto-retry of stalled or faulty relays with an actionable relay detail.

Remote Signer & Security

• Lets other apps and websites sign through Amethyst for the first time (NIP-46): connect by scanning or pasting a nostrconnect:// code, and keep signing in the background — whether your key is stored directly in Amethyst or delegated to an external signer like Amber (NIP-55).
• Asks for informed consent before authorizing an app — showing its name and icon, which account will sign, the exact permissions, and an event preview — with per-account sheets and one-tap batched approval.
• Manages connected apps from a dedicated screen with per-app relay list, live health, time-bound grants, and instant "forget this app".
• Adds interactive relay login prompts (NIP-42): choose Once / Always / Never per relay, with venue-aware prompts for public chats, communities, and live streams, and one-tap rules to trust relays used by people you follow. Apps connected through the remote signer now ask before signing a relay login, instead of approving it automatically under "Let's be reasonable".

Web of Trust (GrapeRank)

• Discovers Web-of-Trust score providers via NIP-85 and shows hop distance and follower count on trust cards. Computing the scores — crawling the social graph, reverse-follower crawling, and publishing NIP-85 cards — is done by the amy command-line tool, not the app; see the Cli section.

Publishing & Sync

• Adds proof-of-work (NIP-13) publishing: a fire-and-forget mining queue with per-account difficulty and per-category settings, scheduled-post mining, and per-post overrides, shielded by a foreground service and mined across half the device's cores.
• Adds NIP-77 negentropy sync as a first-class capability, with deletion (NIP-09/62) propagation so scoped syncs no longer strand deletions.
• Shows PoW mining progress, and surfaces PoW, OpenTimestamps, and location markers as tap-to-explain pills in the note header.

Podcasts

• Adds Podcasting 2.0: renders shows in detail and thread views, surfaces episodes in the merged podcast feed, and plays trailers.
• Shows person credits as real Nostr profiles, soundbites, in-app chapters, a transcript viewer, and a Top Supporters leaderboard.
• Adds per-episode reactions and NIP-22 comments, a Podcast Bookmarks screen, and value-for-value Lightning splits paid per-minute during real playback.
• Adds in-app podcast authoring: create and edit shows, episodes, and trailers from an authoring hub, with a value-for-value split editor that adds Nostr recipients by search. Verifies NIP-F4 podcast authors against their kind-10064 counter-claims.

BOLT12 Payments & Zaps (NIP-B1)

• Adds BOLT12 zaps: self-verifying kind-9736 events that prove a real BOLT12 Lightning payment. They carry a settlement proof instead of relying on an LNURL receipt. They fold into the same zap total and reactions row as Lightning zaps, with anonymous and receiptless (pay-only) variants. Only cryptographically verified proofs count toward the total.
• Publishes and edits your own BOLT12 offer list (kind 10058) from an in-app editor. The list is cached, kept live, and restored across restarts.
• Pays a recipient's published offer. Hand it to an external wallet as a bitcoin:?lno= (BIP21) intent, or pay in-app over a NWC wallet that supports it.
• Sends zaps over NWC, using the new pay/receive methods (nostr-wallet-connect/nwc#2). Prefers BOLT12 over Lightning when the recipient offers it and the wallet supports it, and falls back to a Lightning zap otherwise.
• Verifies payer proofs cryptographically: payment-hash preimage, invoice and proof signatures, and BOLT12 merkle reconstruction of selectively disclosed fields. Dims and does not count a proof that can't be bound to the offer.

Wallet & Payments

• Adds a Cashu wallet setup wizard: find-or-create with cross-relay discovery, mint suggestions, and a CashuMints screen; the wallet auto-publishes on mint add/remove.
• Claims P2PK-locked Cashu tokens (NUT-11). Matches the lock against your wallet or identity key, and redeems all-or-nothing. Gives a clear error when a token is locked to a key this wallet can't sign for.
• Adds a setting to hide the on-chain (Bitcoin) wallet, including from zap buttons.
• Prefers NIP-44 encryption for NWC when the wallet advertises it. Adds a NWC-07 deep-link pairing helper. Posts a tray notification for incoming non-zap Lightning payments.

Battery, Data & Background Service

• Adds a resource-usage ledger: on-device battery and data accounting across relay connections, media, HTTP, proof-of-work, Tor, calls, decrypts, and remote signs, with per-screen foreground time and reconnect-churn tracking. Optional NIP-17 reports mail the summary to yourself.
• Presents it on a usage screen with stat tiles, a trend chart, proportion bars, cellular-first bars, a Tor card, actionable insights, and a live memory card.
• Adds a master switch for the always-on background notification service with per-account participation, a cost card that links to notification settings, and a distinct status-bar icon.
• Scales LocalCache pruning to the OS memory-pressure level, and trims feed lists, rich-text/robohash/relay-info caches, the image cache, and the player warm pool under pressure.

Look, Media & Navigation

• Adds theme customization: pick an accent color (with a swatch picker), font, and font size. The accent now drives Material 3 containers, buttons, FABs, switches, unread dots, selected-reaction highlights, verified NIP-05 / image marks, and the Following badge.
• Redesigns UI Preferences into grouped in-screen options with live font previews, and adds a settings search filter in the app bar.
• Adds a Blossom media file manager: browse and manage stored blobs with per-file controls, mirror and /media toggles, an app-level "Sync all" with progress, and BUD-07 confirm-then-pay mirroring for paid servers.
• Extends the Blossom manager with a gallery grid (video thumbnails and a full-screen zoomable viewer) and a per-file detail sheet. Adds an importer that copies blobs from other Blossom servers into yours. Falls back to a verified download-and-reupload when a target has no /mirror.
• Redesigns the Media Servers screen as a single auto-saving canvas with a reorderable priority list and cached health probes.
• Redesigns the bottom-bar setup with a live preview, drag-to-reorder, and real favicons; the default bar becomes Home, Messages, Wallet, Browser, Notifications.
• Adapts the app shell to large screens: tier-scaled navigation transitions, a reading-column width cap on wide panes, and a two-pane Messages layout.
• Nicknames people with NIP-85 contact cards (kind 30382) signed by your account key. The nickname shows above their real display name on the profile and supports custom emoji.
• Adds fitness support: renders POWR strength workouts (kind 1301) and exercise templates (kind 33401) as cards, and merges close-by Health Connect sessions of the same type.
• Renders Birdstar bird detections (kind 2473) with common-name titles and Wikidata links, surfaces Birdex life lists on home and profile, and renders PS1 memory-card saves (kind 38192) with an animated BIOS icon.
• Adds a compose signature pre-filled in text-based post screens, and an optional subject/title field in the short-note composer.
• Renders NIP-30 custom-emoji reactions as an avatar badge, a lone zap/nutzap as a large activity card, and NIP-84 highlights from web highlighter clients.
• Supports NIP-51 mute-list hashtag entries and public-chat reply notifications.
• Modernizes the Privacy, Profile UI, Home Tabs, and Calendar Reminder settings screens into grouped in-screen options.
• Adds "Share as QR" for a note, with a choice of note or naddr payload and an image thumbnail for image-only notes.
• Resolves NIP-05 identifiers (including Namecoin .bit) in the @-mention popover, wiring them to nostr: mentions.

Performance

• Speeds up napplet/nSite opens by overlapping WebView init, prefetching blobs in parallel, and fast-serving content-addressed blobs from cache.
• Substantially faster GrapeRank crawls (background IO, mass pre-connect with cached DNS, batched contact reads, parallel outbox fetches, early dead-relay pruning) and faster scoring via Gauss-Seidel sweeps over a compact integer graph.
• Speeds up NIP-77 reconcile with direct-built wire frames (~2.5x), O(1) range fingerprints, a live negentropy index, and an allocation-free idle watchdog.
• Prefetches media and pre-parses note text ahead of the viewport, adds a k-way merge for the home feed, and pins indexes for multi-author queries.
• Adopts a caching event decoder across Android/Desktop/CLI, batches Schnorr verification off the receive path, and keeps light/dark resolution O(1) after an accent change.
• Parallelizes Blossom "Sync all", prefetches a joined group's history, and mines proof-of-work on half the device's cores.
• Orders NIP-50 relay search by bm25 relevance and scales search and tag-watcher queries with corpus size, picking the SQLite filesystem driver by cost and materializing indexes at runtime.
• Removes live-path allocations in LiveEventStore and FilterIndex (and on the frame/search paths), and snapshots FilterIndex with a persistent map.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Normalizes accent theming: contrast-picks onPrimary so filled buttons/FABs stop washing out, bases light/dark on background luminance, and fixes accent regressions.
• Keeps live HLS streams playing and caches only proven on-demand HLS; shows a browser-fallback overlay when a decoder stalls and pauses looping videos after 5 plays.
• Adds an HTTP/2 keepalive ping to stop stale-connection image stalls.
• Hardens the relay client: enforces blocked relays on every REQ/COUNT/publish, backs off from REQs relays repeatedly refuse, drops relays that fail hard during crawls, caches each relay's advertised LIMITS, and fixes reconnect backoff on network/transport changes.
• Shows and edits Marmot (MLS) group icons in the feed and in group metadata, interoperable with other Marmot clients.
• Opens zaps and reactions in their own thread view, turns Notify chips into bell mute-toggles that list every thread member, and replies with kind 1111 to Amethyst's own kind-1 thread roots.
• Adds search, a local filter, and a top-nav feed filter to the App Recommendations screen, and shows a website's favicon and domain across every browser-connected app view.
• Fixes nutzap relay routing to receive/advertise on inbox/DM (kind 10019) relays instead of outbox.
• Fixes Concord invite handling (revocation, keyless CORD-05, clearer failure copy, no hang on bad links, skip re-join) and channel rows stuck on "No messages yet".
• Persists the Concord community list and loads pinned communities from their own relays so cold boot no longer refetches, shows channels on Messages as soon as the control plane folds, warms channel previews so the list fills without opening each channel, and rank-gates the Ban/Remove affordances (CORD-04).
• Sizes the video player box so live streams stop rendering black bars, and enforces the decoder budget when acquiring players.
• Stops stamping our client tag on someone else's event template so external signers sign it unchanged.
• Keeps calendar RSVP buttons on a single line, drops dead top padding on Home when there are no live bubbles, and modernizes the Zap the Devs donation card.
• Rejects NIP-29 group state not signed by the relay, opens group posts in the group chat, and fixes subgroup edit safety and pinned-message jump.
• Makes tapping a message timestamp open delivery info instead of toggling the time format, and right-aligns your own messages.
• Recovers a media file's type from its extension when the imeta MIME is malformed, and moves several disk reads (boot receiver, signer policy) off the main thread.
• Serializes account construction so concurrent loaders can't build duplicate accounts.
• Routes Onion-Location through the Android app's HTTP clients and maps Tor/Arti errors to accurate SOCKS reply codes.
• Extracts the rich-text renderer and many event cards (calendar/RSVP, podcast atoms/splits, relay discovery, code snippet, ecash mint, activity, Git diff/status, and more) into shared commons so Desktop and Android render identically.
• Sends pictures in minichat thread replies (encrypted in Concord, plaintext in public chats). Resolves @-mentions in the minichat composer and tray quick-replies. Adds p tags for people cited in kind 9/11/1111 and Buzz stream messages, so mentions notify and resolve.
• Stops the inline audio player from painting over the note below it. Marks every room type read from the Messages "mark as read" action.
• Fixes numeric HTML entities in link-preview meta tags. Routes kind-39005 by tag shape, so Buzz thread summaries no longer parse as NIP-29 pin lists.
• Shortens over-long translated strings across 23 locales and fixes duplicate and CDATA translation issues.

Desktop

• Redesigns notifications with a reworked inbox and native OS toast notifications.
• Adds NIP-42 relay AUTH with an inline Once / Always / Never approval banner and persisted grants.
• Makes NIP-17 private DMs reliable: resolves recipient inbox relays, fetches DM relay lists and account/Blossom config from outbox relays, and stops falling back to connected relays.
• Adds Web-of-Trust score badges, Follow Packs (NIP-51) discovery with one-tap follow, note scheduling, opt-in NIP-37 draft sync, and a hashtag-spam filter.
• Adds a Privacy Lock: gate the Messages and Wallet columns behind a password, with an auto-lock timeout. It is a screen gate, not encryption at rest — messages continue to sync while it is locked.
• Renders rich text through the shared core (removes the desktop-only fork) and ships as a Flatpak bundle.
• Adds moderation & safety: mute/block and NIP-56 report actions in the note menu with feed, thread, and profile enforcement (previously a silent no-op), NIP-36 content-warning blur with tap-to-reveal, a sensitive-content toggle, and management screens — with snackbar feedback and zero-relay send warnings.
• Adds NIP-88 polls (render, vote, create) with a "Polls" search facet, and unifies the note ⋮ overflow and right-click menus.
• Fixes a desktop-cache race that could wipe the follow list, and makes sidebar navigation replace the detail overlay instead of hiding behind it.

Cli

• Adds nak-style primitives: amy decode/encode (NIP-19/21), verify, key (generate/public/encrypt/decrypt/validate, NIP-49), and filter.
• Adds query verbs: amy fetch (one-shot with code-mode outbox resolution), subscribe (live NDJSON), count (NIP-45), and outbox USER (NIP-65).
• Adds amy sync — NIP-77 negentropy reconcile with deletion propagation — and amy event / amy publish for raw and pre-signed events.
• Adds amy encrypt/decrypt (NIP-44/04) and amy gift wrap/unwrap (NIP-59).
• Adds amy blossom (upload/download/list/delete/check/mirror, NIP-B7) with a live interop smoke test.
• Adds amy git (NIP-34), amy podcast and amy podcast20 (Podcasting 2.0 with V4V splits).
• Rounds out amy git to full NIP-34 parity: browse/cat/log over smart-HTTP, init from a local checkout, label (NIP-32), apply a patch to the working tree, and grasp list/set (GRASP server list, kind 10317).
• Adds amy buzz for block/buzz workspaces (channels, DMs, invite-link redemption), verified against a live Buzz relay.
• Turns amy into the Buzz workflow/agent runner. buzz agent serve/up/ doctor run gated or parallel-backlog agents in isolated git worktrees that open PRs. buzz workflow trigger/run/approve/deny drive the human approval gate.
• Adds amy bolt12 (NIP-B1): decode offers and payer proofs, verify a zap, get/set a kind-10058 offer list, and a two-step intent → zap send.
• Adds the amy cashu wallet (NIP-60/61): wallet lifecycle, balance, mint, receive/send (LN / token / nutzap), and maintenance.
• Adds amy admin (NIP-86 relay moderation) and amy serve (run a relay by embedding geode).
• Adds NIP-46 remote signing: amy bunker server, amy login bunker://…, and amy login --nostrconnect, gated with --perms and interactive approval.
• Adds the amy graperank suite (crawl/score/publish/followers/rank/…), account-less crawl/score, and NIP-85 card publishing.
• Adds amy fof (follows-of-follows, renamed from amy wot), amy concord (encrypted communities), amy relaygroup (NIP-29), and amy geochat (BitChat-interoperable geohash channels).
• Adds NIP-13 proof of work (amy pow, --pow on posts), amy kind, amy nip, amy namecoin, amy status, and amy logoff.
• Expands amy nsite/napplet with publish, serve, and list.
• Switches the default event store to SQLite and hardens the output contract: single-line --json, exit codes 0/1/2/124, publish results carry each relay's rejection reason, and read-only verbs run without an account.

Quartz

• Adds NIP-77 negentropy sync (pipelined worker pool, multi-connection fan-out, bounded-memory streaming, LiveNegentropyIndex) and NIP-09/62 deletion propagation.
• Adds NIP-13 proof-of-work publishing: a cooperative-cancellation miner and a PoWNostrSigner decorator that composes with any signer, plus NIP-59 gift-wrap mining on the outer wrap only.
• Adds NIP-66 RelayReachabilityStore — a durable, shareable dead-relay cache backed by kind:30166 events.
• Adds the Concord/CORD protocol foundation (key derivation, envelope layer, authority resolver, roles/moderation, CORD-05/06/07) and the NIP-5D/5A trust-boundary core (capability model, permission ledger, broker, wire protocol).
• Implements Marmot (MLS-over-Nostr) group icons byte-for-byte with the mdk/whitenoise scheme, and fixes SecretTree ratchet preservation across restore.
• Adds an OutboxDispatcher to fetch profile/contact events via each author's outbox relays, and richer NIP-89 app-handler parsing.
• Adds the Buzz protocol surface (~78 event kinds spanning NIP-OA owner attestation, NIP-AM agent turn metrics, personas/teams/managed agents, streams, DMs, forums, presence, and moderation), verified against vectors generated by Buzz's own Rust reference.
• Adds the BOLT12 zaps protocol layer (NIP-B1): kind-9736 zaps, kind-9737 zap intents, kind-10058 offer lists, full spec validation, and a payer-proof verifier with BOLT12 merkle reconstruction. NWC gains pay/receive methods.
• Widens NIP-50 search indexing to more event kinds and tag-borne text. Indexes only the public petname and summary on contact cards (kind 30382), never the encrypted fields.

Geode (standalone relay)

• Adds relay-to-relay mirroring with strfry-router parity: a two-phase model (NIP-77 negentropy sync catch-up plus a live REQ tail), down / up / both directions, per-upstream mirror filters, and relay-to-relay trust.
• Keeps mirrors alive across upstream restarts with a retry pump and ping keepalive, and advances the since-watermark correctly on reconnect.
• Adds import / export NDJSON verbs and an optional no-full-text-search mode (--no-search) for lighter deployments.
• Adds [database] tuning knobs with periodic PRAGMA optimize, and validates config knobs and mirror filters at boot.
• Runs embedded in the CLI via amy serve.
• Serves full-set negentropy NEG-OPENs from a live index and streams mirror catch-up IDs instead of materializing them.
• Adds relayBench, a head-to-head benchmark harness (geode vs strfry vs any relay) measuring ingest, query, and NIP-77 sync over a shared corpus.
• Enables a combined tag+kind+pubkey index, a cost-based filesystem-driver pick, and runtime index materialization, with new tag∩author and driver-selection relayBench shapes.
• Ships a release pipeline: a GHCR Docker image, .deb/.rpm packages with a bundled JRE and systemd unit, a portable jlink'd tarball, and a Homebrew formula. Adds --version/--help and a boot smoke test in CI.
• Lets operators pick any Quartz IEventStore backend via [database].backend: SQLite (default), filesystem, or a custom store loaded by class name.

Build & Documentation

• Rebuilds the Tor/Arti native library for the SOCKS reply-code fix, ships a Homebrew formula for amy, and seeds the Gradle distribution from a verified mirror in the web sandbox.
• Adds NIP-29 group-chat test coverage across every assembler, filter shape, and relay integration.
• Targets JVM 17 for Quartz, upgrades AGP, and replaces the abandoned android-test-report action with mikepenz/action-junit-report.
• Adds a coding standard banning raw invisible/bidirectional Unicode in source (Trojan-Source, CVE-2021-42574) and replaces existing occurrences with \u escapes.

#Amethyst v1.12.6: Napplets, Static Sites Protocol & BugFixes

Highlights:

• New protocol support for Nostr Web Applets (NIP-5D) and static websites (NIP-5A), resolved straight from signed manifests over Blossom.
• Cashu tokens that span multiple mints now redeem in full, and both Base64 alphabets are accepted.
• A batch of stability fixes across notifications, playback, feeds, and the emoji pack screens.

New Features

• Add support for Nostr Web Applets (NIP-5D) and static websites (NIP-5A). Napplet manifests (snapshot/root/named kinds) and the NIP-5A aggregate-hash layer land in Quartz, with a resolver that downloads each listed Blossom server in order and accepts only the blob whose recomputed SHA-256 matches the signed manifest — a substituted or corrupted blob fails verification and is skipped.

Performance

• Cashu token-prefix dispatch now compares against precomputed DualCase prefixes instead of case-folding the cashuA/cashuB markers on every call.

Improvements and Bug fixes

• Cashu: redeeming a pasted token now redeems every mint/keyset group in it (previously only the first), validating all mints are in the wallet up front and summing the redeemed amounts. The parser also tolerates both standard and url-safe Base64 and mixed-case cashuA/cashuB prefixes.
• Stop the DisappearingScaffold top/bottom bars from overshooting their resting edge during the show/hide animation.
• Dedupe emoji shortcodes in the Emoji Pack screen to prevent a LazyGrid crash, and dedupe emoji pack addresses in the My Emoji List grid.
• Cap media-session artwork to the platform bitmap limit so large covers no longer crash playback.
• Handle a missing camera app gracefully when taking photos or videos.
• Snapshot live-stream status order before sorting, and snapshot feed filters too, to avoid TimSort "contract violation" crashes.
• Notifications: call startForeground on every start command and always stopSelf when foreground promotion fails.
• Guard the Health Connect permission check against service-bind failures.
• Add a descriptive message to the media-download HTTP check.

Cli

• amy napplet fetch resolves and fetches a NIP-5D napplet.
• amy nsite fetch resolves and verifies a NIP-5A static site / napplet.

Quartz

• Implement NIP-5D napplets and the NIP-5A static-site resolver (manifest model, path lookup, hash verification, Blossom candidate assembly) in commonMain, with HTTP injected so Quartz keeps no networking dependency.
• Move the out-of-band Cashu token parser, the cashuB (v4) encoder, and the token container model into Quartz, so Desktop's rich-text viewer can now parse received Cashu tokens. Adds kotlinx-serialization-cbor (Apache-2.0).
• Centralize Blossom protocol strings in Quartz.
• Never let signer timeouts crash from auto-signing launches.

Build & Documentation

• Generate the changelog translator credits offline from a committed translators.json, track a rolling "since last tag" contributor list, and seed it from Crowdin on every sync without rewriting the timestamp each run.

v1.12.3-5: Relay Latency Health & a macOS Notarization Fix

Highlights:

• Tracks per-relay latency on Desktop and surfaces slow relays in the dashboard, a details popup, and a banner.
• Fixes macOS notarization for the desktop DMG and the amy CLI tarball.

New Features

Relay Latency Health (Desktop)

• Adds a per-relay latency tracker and a slow-relay classifier.
• Wires the latency tracker into RelayHealthStore with persistence across launches.
• Surfaces relay latency in the desktop dashboard, a relay-details popup, and an unhealthy-relay banner.

Build & Documentation

• Fixes macOS notarization for the desktop DMG and the amy CLI tarball by signing the Mach-O native libraries bundled inside jars (secp256k1, SQLite, JNA, Skiko, jkeychain, and ComposeMediaPlayer) — Apple's notary service recurses into jars and had rejected them as unsigned.
• Fixes the macOS desktop DMG release build: Compose's signer maps the signing identity to a certificate via security find-certificate, which did not resolve the CI-imported certificate through the keychain search list (bare codesign did). The release workflow now exports the throwaway keychain path and points Compose's signing.keychain straight at it.
• Resolves the Developer ID common name from the signing keychain and feeds it to Compose's signing.identity. Compose maps its identity to a certificate via security find-certificate -c, which only matches the exact "Developer ID Application: …" name — a fingerprint or partial/team-ID value (which bare codesign accepts) was rejected with "Could not find certificate ... in keychain []". The release workflow now points Compose at the imported keychain explicitly and supplies the canonical identity name.

#Amethyst v1.12.2: Road Events, Collapsable replies and some fixes

Highlights:

• Adds Roadstr road events (kind 1315/1316) with OpenStreetMap map
• Expands the Cashu wallet to surface and manage balances held across every mint, with seed recovery and richer nutzap controls.
• Collapses thread replies on click in thread view and shows the hidden reply count on collapsed cards.
• Adds full-text search across far more event kinds, including direct messages, zap comments, polls, code snippets, and audio.

New Features

Road Events (Roadstr)

• Adds kind 1315/1316 road event support, rendered with roadstr-accurate cards.
• Renders the road event location on an OpenStreetMap map that follows the app's dark theme.
• Modernizes road event cards with a map hero and a floating pill.
• Includes road events in geohash feeds.

Quartz Search

• Adds a pausable, resumable full-text-search reindex to the SQLite and filesystem event stores, and clamps non-positive reindex batch sizes.
• Indexes direct message content (NIP-17 ChatMessageEvent).
• Indexes zap comments (LnZap request/receipt, on-chain zap, and nutzap).
• Makes polls, code snippets, audio, and git/torrent replies and interest sets searchable.
• Indexes parsed JSON fields of profile, channel, and app-handler events.
• Indexes natural-language fields of more event kinds, and makes the remaining text-bearing events searchable.
• Adds full-text-search reindexing to both the SQLite and filesystem event stores, pausable and resumable for large stores.
• Runs the post-migration search reindex in the background so upgrades don't block on it.

Cashu Wallet

• Surfaces all token-holding mints and syncs them when the wallet opens.
• Highlights balances held at unconfigured mints and lets users move those coins off.
• Recovers from seed across every held mint, not just the configured ones.
• Reframes edit-wallet as a mint editor; adds mints directly from the browser and verifies them in the list.
• Moves mint recommendations to their own screen and nutzap-key rotation into the Danger Zone.
• Adds stop-receiving-nutzaps and delete-wallet actions.
• Keeps the Cashu receive invoice on screen during mint polling.

Music & Playlists

• Adds a full-screen music playlist composer with cover image and metadata.
• Lets users reorder and remove tracks inside the playlist editor.
• Adds a "Mine" option to the music and playlist feed filters.

Reading & Sharing

• Collapses thread replies on click in thread view and shows the hidden reply count on collapsed cards.
• Modernizes the quote/repost choice popup and shows both fork states in the boost preview.
• Reduces the scroll sensitivity for bringing back the nav and status bars.

Share as Image

• Adds Share as Image to a local file, renaming the upload flow to Share as Image Url.
• Shows the image thumbnail in the share sheet for Share as Image.

Public Chats

• Requires at least one relay to create or edit a public chat
• Broadcasts to observed relays when a channel declares none.

Pull Notifications

• Better detects background state via a LifecycleEventObserver
• Prunes the connected set when a relay leaves the pool.
• Throttles notification relay-count updates to dodge Android's rate limit
• Distinguishes foreground from background counts in the notification tray

Tor Management

• Warm-resets Tor on a dead-circuit self-heal instead of wiping all state.
• Fixes a Tor bug by seeding hasEverBootstrapped from the on-disk guard sample.

DM Loading Improvements

• Tracks chatroom senders so DMs from followed contacts land in Known.

Signer Fixes

• Stops splitting emoji surrogate pairs when truncating alt/summary tags.

Desktop

• Wires macOS Developer ID signing and notarization.
• Adds an in-process relay seam, a launch benchmark, and a Compose UI test pyramid.
• Collapses icon decoding to a single memoized lazy for faster launch.

Cli

• Codesigns and notarizes the macOS amy tarball.
• Publishes a no-JRE jar bundle and a Homebrew-core formula for amy.
• Drops the Compose UI render stack from the amy runtime image.

Build & Documentation

• Bumps stable dependency versions.
• Adds icon, supported NIPs, and publishing-relay documentation to Zapstore config
• Adds a desktop release guard that fails the build if osxkeychain.so is stripped.

#Amethyst v1.11.0: Calendars

Highlights:

1. NIP-52 Calendars — feed, day/week/month views, event/collection editors, RSVP, ICS export, "starting soon" notifications, share-as-nostr-link, gallery picker.

2. On-Chain zaps — splits with dust gating, shows in the reaction gallery, display transaction history, privacy guidance

3. Payment-targets redesign (QR + copy + pay), public-address chip + confirmation

Crypto and Performance

• Custom secp256k1 implementation, starting to replace fr.acinq.secp256k1
  • Pure-Kotlin core for KMP native targets (macOS / iOS / Linux).
  • C + inline-ASM accelerated path on Android via a JNI bridge.
  • Hardware SHA-256 (SHA-NI on x86_64, ARMv8 CE on ARM64).
  • Comb method for G multiplication → 3× faster sign/keygen.
  • Same-pubkey batch Schnorr verify (5–6× throughput).
  • verifySchnorrFast for Nostr (skips y-parity inversion).
  • 4×64-bit limb representation with lazy field ops and ARM64 assembly.
  • Standalone libsecp256k1-nostr / libschnorr256k1 C project, with Android benchmarks.
• Concurrent caching DNS resolver (SurgeDns)
  • Lock-free DNS cache.
  • 24h positive TTL.
  • Stale-while-revalidate.
  • Persisted across process restarts.
• Smoother video playback
  • Warm ExoPlayer pool and retained warm players.
  • Tuned LoadControl.
  • VideoCache warmup 10s → 1.5s.
  • Stable controller-overlay tree.
• Faster icons — shared FontFamily and TextMeasurer across all Material Symbols
• Faster chat lists — stable list keys and reduced recomposition
• Faster note rendering — cached event-derived values, fewer per-item allocations during feed scroll
• Faster Quartz queries
  • Direct-slot driver for replaceable + addressable lookups.
  • Streaming k-way merge.
  • Smallest-first FTS intersect.
  • Parallel Schnorr verify in the ingest queue.
  • Index-driven fan-out for cache observers.
• Faster rich-text translation
• Thumbnail disk cache for profile pictures; Coil disk-cache eviction moved off the write path to prevent scroll stalls
• Paginated GiftWrap loading for the DM chat list
• Bookmark events preloaded for faster access
• Lifecycle-aware screen subscriptions
  • Feed/screen relay subscriptions pause on background and resume on foreground.
  • 30s grace delay so brief app switches don't churn subscriptions.
• Adaptive video disk cache — sized to 20% of free disk (256 MB–4 GB) instead of a fixed 1 GB, with on-demand HLS videos cached in SimpleCache

#Amethyst v1.05.0: Bookmark Lists, Voice Notes, and WoT Scores

This release introduces Bookmark List management, a complete overhaul of Voice Notes/YakBaks, and the debut of Web of Trust (WoT) scores for a safer social experience.

This version adds support for creating, managing, deleting, and viewing multiple bookmark lists, which include both public and private members. You will find an improved "Bookmarks" menu option in the sidebar and extra bookmark options in the context menu of each post, allowing you to add posts directly to one or more individual lists.

The Voice Notes UI has been redesigned to allow recording directly within the new Post Screen and a dedicated Voice Reply screen. Users can record a new voice message, preview it with waveform visualization, re-record if needed, select a media server, and post the reply. You now have full control.

Amethyst now supports Trusted Assertions. By connecting to a WoT provider, you can see trust scores and verified follower counts directly on user pictures. This helps filter signal from noise, identifying reputable accounts to follow, which DMs to open, and which notifications to prioritize. To activate this, you will need to find a provider capable of computing these scores. While providers are currently limited and resource-constrained, we hope more will bring their own algorithms to Nostr over time.

Quartz received a significantly improved database engine capable of sub-microsecond queries using Android's default SQLite database. The engine is optimized for mobile environments, using as little memory as possible to avoid impacting other apps.

In the background, we have begun building Amethyst Desktop. While much work remains, the goal is a standalone, mouse-first application that moves away from mobile-centric UI layouts.

#Amethyst v1.04.0: Lists for all

This version adds support for creating, managing, deleting, and viewing follow lists, which include both public and private members. We've also added similar UI to support for creating, managing, deleting, and viewing follow packs from following.space, allowing you to assemble following lists not only for yourself, but also as a starter packs for other users. You will find a new "My Lists" menu option in the side bar and Follow buttons when extended behavior to add users directly into lists or packs.

This version also introduces significant improvements to the quality of video compression and hash checks during media upload/download, along with new codecs and a new image gallery for displaying sequences of images in posts. The startup loading of outbox relay lists and user metadata for large follow lists (> 1000 people) has been significantly improved with new mechanisms to search for missing outbox relay lists.

The Top Bar filter "All Follows" now merges all follow lists, follow packs, following hashtags, following geotags, and following communities into a single feed. Two new options were also added: "All User Follows," which includes only the main and other follow lists, and "Default Follow List," which is the standard follow list used by every client.

Finally, we completed our Quartz migration to Kotlin Multiplatform, added significant performance improvements when processing events and running cryptographic procedures, as well as new ease-of-use extensions.

New Features:

• People List creation and management by

#Amethyst v1.04.0: Lists for all

This version adds support for creating, managing, deleting, and viewing follow lists, which include both public and private members. We've also added similar UI to support for creating, managing, deleting, and viewing follow packs from following.space, allowing you to assemble following lists not only for yourself, but also as a starter packs for other users. You will find a new "My Lists" menu option in the side bar and Follow buttons when extended behavior to add users directly into lists or packs.

This version also introduces significant improvements to the quality of video compression and hash checks during media upload/download, along with new codecs and a new image gallery for displaying sequences of images in posts. The startup loading of outbox relay lists and user metadata for large follow lists (> 1000 people) has been significantly improved with new mechanisms to search for missing outbox relay lists.

The Top Bar filter "All Follows" now merges all follow lists, follow packs, following hashtags, following geotags, and following communities into a single feed. Two new options were also added: "All User Follows," which includes only the main and other follow lists, and "Default Follow List," which is the standard follow list used by every client.

Finally, we completed our Quartz migration to Kotlin Multiplatform, added significant performance improvements when processing events and running cryptographic procedures, as well as new ease-of-use extensions.

#Amethyst v1.00.0: Full Outbox

This version completes our migration to the outbox model, where the app dynamically manages the relay list used to pull posts from your follows' own relay lists. By default, the app will connect to relays that aren't in your lists through our embedded Tor. Normal usage will connect to hundreds of relays. Many of them will fail, and that's ok. Nostr has baked-in redundancy; these failures won't affect your experience.

New relay lists were added to the UI to help you manage how the app works. Specifically, you can now block relays and add trusted relays. Trusted relays will connect outside of Tor, which is faster, but allows those relays to see your IP. You should only add relays there if you trust the relay operator. Proxy relays (like filter.nostr.wine) can be added to the proxy list. After that, the app will only use those relays to download the content for your feeds, disabling the outbox model. DMs and other non-outbox functionality will still use their own relays. Broadcasting relays can be added to push your events out there. Every new event from the app will be sent to all broadcasting relays. Finally, the new Indexer list allows you to choose which relays to use to find users, like purplepages.es.

For users of our Quartz library, we have finished all of the work to change the library's mindset from a fixed list to a dynamic pool of relays. Now, each NIP has its own dedicated folder and defines its own tags and caching structures. This expansion allows us to add diverse functionalities such as relay clients, relay servers, event builders, Nostr filter builders, caching systems, deletion and event hint indexers, helper functions, and more—all specifically tailored to each individual NIP. This modular approach creates the space to develop each NIP independently and integrate them into Amethyst as distinct modules, while still sharing Amethyst's main relay and cache engine when necessary. We expect fewer breaking changes as we move forward with it. At some point, Quartz will move to its own repository and be converted to a Kotlin Multiplatform project for each NIP/module. This will allow us to build demo/testing applications for each NIP in the same repo.

#Amethyst v0.94.2: Fixes Tor leaks

This release fixes two Tor leaks introduced during the migration of two APIs in v0.94.0. The new relay API contained a bug that bypassed the user's Tor preference for relays and the migration to Coil3 implemented a one-time cache for the Tor preference, preventing it from reflecting subsequent changes for image loading.

Thanks to

for the Tor audit
