Product update for Bookcicle Desktop 0.1.89 improving Windows Hello passkey enrollment diagnostics by capturing server validation response bodies upon ADD_PASSKEY registration rejection.
Fixed
- Windows Hello: Capture and log the HTTP 400 response body from ADD_PASSKEY server actions, surfacing backend validation errors during passkey registration instead of obscuring details behind generic client error classifications.
- Windows Hello: Record explicit server rejection diagnostics under the windows_hello target when credential registration fails.

Product update for Bookcicle Desktop 0.1.88 eliminating Windows Hello 60-second assertion stalls via silent local platform credential enumeration, resolving an editor crash on cross-block backspace and delete actions, and improving credential enrollment fallback.
Fixed
- Editor: Resolve slice boundary mismatch during cross-block backspace and delete actions, preventing application crashes (slice_error_fail) on multi-paragraph selections.
- Windows Hello: Silently enumerate local platform credentials (API v4+) before assertion; if no local credentials exist or none match the account's allowed credentials, trigger platform enrollment immediately without stalling for 60 seconds.
- Windows Hello: Filter assertion allowed credentials to matching local platform credentials, preventing Windows Hello from waiting indefinitely for security keys or foreign authenticator devices.
- Windows Hello: Always populate both legacy CredentialList and extended pAllowCredentialList in assertion options as required by Microsoft WebAuthN specification, ensuring reliable prompt dispatch.
- Windows Hello: Safely bring parent window to top and set foreground focus without risky cross-thread AttachThreadInput manipulation.
- Windows Hello: Detect watchdog timeouts caused by hung WebAuthN assertion operations and automatically fall back to credential enrollment rather than treating timeouts as user cancellations.

Product update for Bookcicle Desktop 0.1.87 introducing Windows Hello internal TPM transport restriction with fast-fail, automatic native enrollment fallback, canonical project lineage routing for cloud authorship sync on migrated books, and a fix for Windows startup re-entrancy panics during window restoration.
Fixed
- Windows Startup: Prevent GPUI re-entrant foreground task execution during modal message loops (including child WebView2 environment and COM initialization), eliminating the RefCell already borrowed panic and 0xc0000409 abort during window restore (#349)
- Windows Hello: Restrict credential options to WEBAUTHN_CTAP_TRANSPORT_INTERNAL, ensuring missing TPM credentials fail fast with NTE_NOT_FOUND (0x80090011) rather than stalling or enumerating external keys (#348)
- Windows Hello: Explicitly attach thread input to the root window before setting foreground focus, ensuring the native credential prompt receives window focus across GPUI render threads (#348)
- Windows Hello: Automatically trigger platform enrollment when assertion returns credential not found errors (NTE_NOT_FOUND, NTE_KEY_NOT_FOUND), repairing un-enrolled credentials on fresh and reimaged machines (#348)
- Authorship sync: Route editor history sync to canonical project identity when draft_scope_id is absent, resolving HTTP 404 Draft manifest not found on migrated books bound to payment request content scopes (#348)

Product update for Bookcicle Desktop 0.1.86 resolving Windows Hello native WebAuthN assertion stalls, introducing a native watchdog timer for prompt timeouts, and improving transport resilience across updater downloads, contributor sync, and WebSockets.
Fixed
- Windows Hello: Populate pAllowCredentialList with WEBAUTHN_CREDENTIAL_LIST for dwVersion >= 3, resolving the native WebAuthN assertion stall on Windows (#347)
- Windows Hello: Set parent window foreground focus before invoking WebAuthN APIs to ensure prompt visibility and input handling (#347)
- Windows Hello: Add a 62-second native cancellation watchdog thread with immediate wakeup on completion to safely recover if Windows WebAuthN blocks (#347)
- Contributor sync: Add retry loop with exponential backoff on transient network drops and server errors (#347)
- Updater: Add retry backoff on connection resets, network drops, and interrupted checksum downloads (#347)
- Telemetry: Include desktop authorization bearer token on /events/ingest requests to eliminate 403 Forbidden errors (#347)
- WebSocket & Launcher: Increase splash handshake timeout to 60s and gracefully handle reconnectable transport disconnects without fatal errors (#347)

Fixed
OurSircle Offline-to-cloud identity recovery contracts now isolate offline shell placeholders and enforce immutable root task lineage across federated accounts.- Settings window now reliably surfaces in front of active editor windows when opened from macOS application menus.
- Contributor identity sync skips offline placeholders and logs structured diagnostics for missing remote profiles.
- Cross-surface collaboration sync now properly reconciles remote section deletions without leaving orphan tabs.
