+- Added a bundled Hachidori dictionary backend alongside the default Yomitan backend. Select it with `dictionaryBackend` and restart SubMiner.
+- The tray and dictionary-settings shortcut follow the selected backend. `--hachidori` opens Hachidori settings, while `--yomitan` continues to open Yomitan settings.
+- Hachidori integrates with subtitle scanning, popup controls, lookup tracking, character dictionaries, and Anki media enrichment, with separate dictionaries and settings for each backend.
+- Hachidori auto-populates its first Anki template from SubMiner's deck, tags, and field mappings, detects an unambiguous matching note type, and preserves existing custom templates. Anki discovery retries after an unavailable connection.
+- Hachidori saves downloadable word audio before sending a note through SubMiner's Anki proxy, so freshly mined animated cards include the word-audio delay.
+- Hachidori reloads its background code on startup so extension updates take effect while preserving installed dictionaries and settings.
+- First-run setup remembers each backend that finished it, so switching back does not repeat setup, and the launcher gates playback on the backend the running app started with. Current incomplete or cancelled setup takes precedence over stale completion history.
+- Stats dashboard mining and deck lookup use the selected backend. Settings labels for popup pause and the dictionary deck no longer name Yomitan, and the backend selector sits with the other dictionary settings.
+- Hachidori scans, dictionary counts, and settings reads wait for the dictionary engine to finish loading or importing instead of caching empty results.
+- First-run setup can link an external Hachidori dictionary host in an app, browser, or Docker container, verify its library, and unlink back to local dictionaries. The optional host controls are collapsed by default and explain which apps or containers must stay running. Unresponsive connection checks time out so setup remains usable. Anki mining and media enrichment stay in SubMiner.

Use JSON booleans such as `true`, not strings such as `"true"`, and a positive number for `ankiConnect.pollingRate`.
 
+### Reusing SubMiner settings in Hachidori
+
+When Hachidori is the selected backend, SubMiner uses its Anki settings to populate Hachidori's first Anki template on startup and when opening its settings. It copies the configured deck and tags into untouched defaults, then fills missing word, sentence, pronunciation-audio, and picture mappings with fields that exist in Anki. Pronunciation uses `ankiConnect.fields.wordAudio`, falling back to `fields.audio` when no word-audio field is set.
+
+If the note type is unset, SubMiner looks for a unique match containing its configured word and sentence fields. Enabled Lapis, Kiku, or Senren integration narrows the search; Lapis uses its configured model name. A fresh mapping also receives Hachidori's matching preset for readings, definitions, and other recognized fields. If several note types match, choose one in Hachidori Settings. If Anki is closed, open Hachidori Settings again after starting Anki to retry.
+
+Existing custom decks, tags, field mappings, advanced templates, and additional templates stay intact. This fills missing settings rather than continually overwriting Hachidori choices. The Anki endpoint continues to follow SubMiner's proxy configuration. Sentence audio, image timing, translation, metadata, and duplicate field grouping remain controlled by SubMiner; pronunciation sources are configured in Hachidori. Linking an external dictionary host does not change this behavior.

+When Hachidori mines through SubMiner's Anki proxy, it prepares downloadable word audio before saving the note so the animation delay can be measured on the first mine. Configure a downloadable pronunciation source in Hachidori's Audio settings; browser speech cannot be saved into Anki by the SubMiner overlay. If pronunciation is unavailable, Hachidori reports a warning and the card has no word-audio hold.

 These mappings always control normal word-card enrichment, including Yomitan proxy/polling updates and manual clipboard updates. Enabling Lapis or Kiku does not replace the configured word-card sentence and audio fields with `Sentence` and `SentenceAudio`. The dedicated sentence-card and audio-card shortcuts still use those Lapis/Kiku field names.
 
 Two related options live alongside `fields`: `ankiConnect.deck` (target deck; empty falls back as described above) and `ankiConnect.tags` (tags added to mined cards, default `["SubMiner"]`; set `[]` to disable tagging).

+
+Set `dictionaryBackend` to `"hachidori"` in SubMiner settings or `config.jsonc`, then restart SubMiner. The tray's dictionary settings entry changes to **Open Hachidori Settings**. Switching to `"yomitan"` restores the Yomitan entry after restarting.
+
+Open Hachidori settings with `subminer app --hachidori` or `SubMiner.AppImage --hachidori`. Import your dictionary ZIPs or use Hachidori's recommended dictionary installer, then configure its Anki templates. Yomitan and Hachidori keep separate dictionaries and settings. Yomitan profiles, custom Handlebars templates, and `yomitan.externalProfilePath` do not transfer to Hachidori.
+
+First-run setup also offers **Dictionary source → Use an external dictionary host → Link host**. Enable sharing in the other Hachidori app or browser, or start a compatible Docker dictionary host, then enter its sharing address, such as `127.0.0.1:8771` or `ws://host:8771/link`. Use the WebSocket sharing port, not the management page or HTTP API port. The external host section is collapsed until you expand it or a host is linked. Browser hosts need the browser, Hachidori extension, and relay running. Electron hosts need the host app and any required relay running. Docker hosts need the container running; no browser needs to stay open.
+
+Setup checks the host connection and dictionary inventory before enabling Finish. Import at least one dictionary on the host and refresh status. The link persists across restarts. **Unlink and use local dictionaries** restores SubMiner's local library. Anki templates, pronunciation sources, custom buttons, and SubMiner's audio/image processing remain local while linked. Dictionary settings and dictionary edits use the host. Older hosts without the standalone frequency query support frequency annotations through term lookups; frequency-only entries without a matching term require an updated host.
+
+Both named settings flags work independently of the selected backend. Opening settings does not switch the overlay backend. The global dictionary-settings shortcut opens the selected backend.
+
+Hachidori uses SubMiner's subtitle scanning, lookup counter, popup pause behavior, controller commands, character dictionaries, and Anki media enrichment. Keep SubMiner's AnkiConnect proxy enabled for screenshots and sentence audio. SubMiner routes Hachidori to that proxy when it is active; Hachidori's own screen recorder and screenshot capture are disabled in the embedded app.
+
+Existing controls such as `startupWarmups.yomitanExtension` and `subtitleStyle.autoPauseVideoOnYomitanPopup` apply to the selected backend. Hachidori has one dictionary configuration, so character-dictionary profile scope applies to that configuration.
+
+First-run setup remembers each backend that finished it. Switching to a backend for the first time asks for that backend's dictionaries; switching back to one that already finished does not repeat setup. Until SubMiner restarts, it keeps running the backend it started with, and the launcher gates playback on that running backend and logs a restart reminder.
+
+Hachidori's own duplicate handling differs from Yomitan's. Choosing **Overwrite** in the Hachidori popup updates the existing note and SubMiner enriches its media, while **Add anyway** creates a new note and runs SubMiner's Kiku/Senren [field grouping](./anki-integration.md#field-grouping-kiku-senren). Mining from the stats dashboard uses the selected backend as well.

 ## Architecture Intent
 
+The dictionary backend is selected once at startup by `dictionaryBackend`. Yomitan keeps its existing session and external-profile policy. Hachidori uses `persist:hachidori`; overlay windows select that session before extension loading, including deferred startup. Named settings flags can open either backend without injecting a second reader into the active overlay. The detached stats word helper reads the same config key so dashboard mining uses the active backend.
+
+`setup-state.json` records one backend's status at a time plus `completedDictionaryBackends`, the backends that finished setup before. The app projects the file onto its active backend on startup and stamps that backend into the file. The launcher gates playback on the stamped backend when an app is already running, since a config edit takes effect only after restart.
+
+Hachidori's source, HoshiDicts engine, licenses, pinned revision, and local patch notes live in `vendor/hachidori/`. `build:hachidori` verifies recorded artifact checksums and stages the extension for development and packaging. Before loading the extension, its session clears service worker registrations so Electron uses the current bundled code; dictionary databases and settings remain intact. First-run setup uses Hachidori sharing messages to link or unlink external dictionary hosts and checks their live inventory. Linked dictionaries and dictionary edits use the host, while Anki configuration, pronunciation sources, custom buttons, and mining stay local to SubMiner. The parser bridge adapts its native runtime messages to the existing subtitle scanner and dictionary automation. Its local content bridge implements SubMiner's existing popup events and commands. The Anki proxy strips local duplicate/overwrite metadata before forwarding requests and enriches only confirmed writes.
