feat(macos): configuration window + curl-backed macOS updater (#71)

- Exits early with `SubMiner <version>` output, no app binary required
- Maps `-v` at root level without conflicting with `stats cleanup -v`
- Adds `version: boolean` to `Args` type and default args
- Documents flag in docs-site and adds changelog fragment

+# Config Settings Window
+
+Status: draft
+Owner: Kyle Yasuda
+Created: 2026-05-17
+
+## Goal
+
+Add a dedicated configuration window that groups settings by user workflow while saving back to the existing `config.jsonc` paths.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Full current config surface, excluding legacy/ignored compatibility keys.
+- Preserve JSONC comments/formatting when saving.
+- Surface hot-reload vs restart-required results.

SubMiner picks the best match by comparing titles (romaji, English, native) and filtering by episode count.

The media must already be in Planning or Watching; otherwise SubMiner shows an MPV message explaining that the update is not possible.

 ## Update Queue and Retry
 
 Failed AniList updates are persisted to a retry queue on disk and retried with exponential backoff.

+| Queue capacity   | 500 items  |
 
 After 8 failed attempts, the update is moved to a dead-letter queue and no longer retried automatically. The queue is persisted across restarts so no updates are lost if SubMiner exits before a retry succeeds.

+| `--anilist-retry-queue` | Process one ready retry queue item immediately                |
 
 ## Troubleshooting
 
 - **Updates not triggering:** Confirm `anilist.enabled` is `true`. SubMiner requires at least 85% of the episode watched and a minimum of 10 minutes. Short episodes or partial watches will not trigger an update.
+- **Update not possible:** Add the season to your AniList Planning or Watching list first. SubMiner will not create new AniList list entries automatically.
 - **Wrong episode or title matched:** Detection quality is best when `guessit` is installed and on your `PATH`. Without it, SubMiner falls back to internal filename parsing which can be less accurate with unusual naming conventions.
 - **Token issues:** Run `--anilist-status` to check token state. If the token is invalid or expired, run `--anilist-setup` or `--anilist-logout` and re-authenticate.
 - **Updates failing repeatedly:** Run `--anilist-status` to see retry queue counters. Items that fail 8 times are moved to the dead-letter queue. Check network connectivity and AniList API status.

 ## v0.14.0 (2026-05-12)
 
+SubMiner no longer requires a globally-installed mpv plugin. The bundled plugin is injected at runtime only when SubMiner launches mpv — through the `subminer` launcher, the app's managed launch, or the packaged Windows SubMiner mpv shortcut. When you open mpv on its own, SubMiner is not involved and the plugin is never loaded. If you have a legacy global SubMiner plugin under mpv's `scripts` directory, first-run setup detects it and prompts you to remove it before playback starts.

 **Added**
 
 - **Character Dictionary:** Added AniList-based character dictionary selection for resolving title mismatches — open it in-app with the new `Ctrl+Alt+A` shortcut or from the CLI with `subminer dictionary --candidates` / `--select`. Series-scoped overrides replace stale entries in the merged dictionary.

+### Configuration Window
+
+SubMiner also includes a dedicated **Configuration** window from the tray menu, the app `--config` flag, or launcher commands such as `subminer --config` and `subminer config`. It groups settings by workflow instead of mirroring the raw config-file shape:
+
+- Viewing
+- Mining & Anki
+- Playback & Sources
+- Input
+- Integrations
+- Tracking & App
+- Advanced
+
+Each field still writes to its current `config.jsonc` path. For example, subtitle hover pause appears under **Viewing** / playback behavior, but saves to `subtitleStyle.autoPauseVideoOnHover`.
+
+The settings window preserves existing JSONC comments, trailing commas, unrelated keys, and unsupported legacy options. Resetting a field removes the explicit config path so the built-in default applies.
+
+Secret fields do not display stored values. They show whether a value is configured; entering a new value writes it, and reset clears the explicit path. Prefer command-based secret options such as `ai.apiKeyCommand` when available.
+
+Some compatibility-only or ignored legacy keys are intentionally hidden from the normal field list, including legacy top-level Anki migration fields, old N+1 aliases, the removed YouTube subtitle-generation primary-language key, `anilist.characterDictionary.refreshTtlHours`, `anilist.characterDictionary.evictionPolicy`, `jellyfin.accessToken`, `jellyfin.userId`, and normal editing for `controller.buttonIndices`. Advanced/raw JSON editing remains the escape hatch for unsupported or legacy keys.
+
+Saving validates the candidate config before writing. Live-reloadable changes are applied immediately; other changes return a restart-required banner in the window.

+**Launcher update shows a sudo command**
+
+The detected launcher is installed in a protected path such as `/usr/local/bin/subminer` or `/usr/bin/subminer`. SubMiner does not elevate itself. Run the command shown in the popup to replace the launcher after checksum verification.

The `subminer` script runs directly via shebang on Linux and macOS (no `bun run` needed); on Windows it must be invoked with `bun run subminer` since the shebang is not supported.

 - The release workflow no longer auto-runs `changelog:build`. If pending `changes/*.md` fragments are present on a tag-based run, CI exits with a clear `::error::` pointing at the local fix. Run `bun run changelog:build --version <version>` locally, commit the polished output, then tag.

+- Prerelease tags intentionally keep `changes/*.md` fragments in place so multiple prereleases can reuse the same cumulative pending notes until the final stable cut. `make clean` preserves `release/prerelease-notes.md` while deleting generated build artifacts.
 - If you need to repair a published release body (for example, a prior version’s section was omitted), regenerate notes from `CHANGELOG.md` and re-edit the release with `gh release edit --notes-file`.
 - Prerelease tags are handled by `.github/workflows/prerelease.yml`, which always publishes a GitHub prerelease with all current release platforms and never runs the AUR sync job.
 - Tagged release workflow now also attempts to update `subminer-bin` on the AUR after GitHub Release publication.
 - AUR publish is best-effort: the workflow retries transient SSH clone/push failures, then warns and leaves the GitHub Release green if AUR still fails. Follow up with a manual `git push aur master` from the AUR checkout when needed.
 - Required GitHub Actions secret: `AUR_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY`. Add the matching public key to your AUR account before relying on the automation.
+- Release and prerelease workflows upload updater metadata (`*.yml`) and blockmaps (`*.blockmap`) alongside platform artifacts. Do not remove those files while `electron-updater` is enabled.
+- macOS tray app updates use the standard `electron-updater`/Squirrel path. Keep `latest-mac.yml`, the macOS ZIP, and ZIP blockmap published; Squirrel uses the ZIP payload even when the DMG remains the user-facing installer.
+- macOS update metadata and full ZIP downloads are routed through `/usr/bin/curl` before Squirrel installation to avoid Electron main-process network crashes on update checks.
+- Local macOS build-output apps outside `/Applications` or `~/Applications` skip native update checks. To validate auto-update end to end, install the signed and notarized app bundle into one of those Applications folders and point it at a published updater feed.
+- The first updater-enabled release cannot update older installs automatically. Users need one manual install to get the updater code.
+- Stable auto-update checks ignore beta/RC prereleases by default. Set `updates.channel` to `"prerelease"` on a test install when validating beta/RC updater behavior.

+# Config Settings Window
+
+read_when: changing config UI, config save behavior, or config docs
+
+## Intent
+
+Add a dedicated Electron settings window for editing canonical config values without exposing the historical layout mistakes in `config.jsonc`.
+
+The UI groups options by workflow:
+
+- Viewing
+- Mining & Anki
+- Playback & Sources
+- Input
+- Integrations
+- Tracking & App
+- Advanced
+
+Each field maps back to its current raw config path. The presentation layer must stay separate from generated config-template sections.
+
+## Sources
+
+- Canonical defaults: `DEFAULT_CONFIG`
+- Existing option descriptions/enums: `CONFIG_OPTION_REGISTRY`
+- UI registry: `src/config/settings/registry.ts`
+- JSONC save path: `src/config/settings/jsonc-edit.ts`
+- Window runtime: `src/main/runtime/config-settings-window.ts`
+
+## Save Contract
+
+Settings writes use `jsonc-parser.modify`, not `JSON.stringify`.
+
+Required behavior:
+
+- Preserve comments, trailing commas, unrelated keys, and hidden legacy keys.
+- Reset removes the explicit path so defaults resolve normally.
+- Validate the candidate config before writing.
+- Reject warnings caused by modified fields.
+- Preserve unrelated existing warnings and return them in the snapshot.
+- Write atomically, reload `ConfigService`, classify with existing hot-reload logic, and apply live changes where supported.
+- Never return secret values to the renderer; snapshots only expose configured/not-configured state.
+
+## Hidden Compatibility Keys
+
+Do not expose these as first-class controls:
+
+- `ankiConnect.deck`
+- Legacy top-level Anki migration fields such as `wordField`, `audioField`, media-generation aliases, and behavior aliases
+- Legacy `ankiConnect.nPlusOne.*` aliases except canonical `nPlusOne.nPlusOne` and `nPlusOne.minSentenceWords`
+- Deprecated Lapis sentence-card fields
+- `youtubeSubgen.primarySubLanguages`
+- `anilist.characterDictionary.refreshTtlHours`
+- `anilist.characterDictionary.evictionPolicy`
+- `jellyfin.accessToken`
+- `jellyfin.userId`
+- `controller.buttonIndices` as a normal editable field
+
+## Verification
+
+Minimum targeted checks:
+
+- `bun test src/config/settings/registry.test.ts src/config/settings/jsonc-edit.test.ts src/settings/settings-model.test.ts src/main/runtime/config-settings-window.test.ts`
+- `bun run test:config`
+- `bun run typecheck`
+- `bun run build`
+
+If docs changed:
+
+- `bun run docs:test`
+- `bun run docs:build`

+> This is a prerelease build for testing. Stable changelog and docs-site updates remain pending until the final stable release.
+
+## Highlights
+### Added
+
+- **Auto-Updater:** SubMiner can now check for and apply updates from the system tray or by running `subminer -u`. Checks include checksum verification, configurable notifications, and an opt-in channel for prerelease builds. The `subminer` launcher and Linux rofi theme are also updated automatically.
+
+- **First-Run Setup:** A new optional setup flow installs Bun and the `subminer` command-line launcher on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Windows users get a `subminer.cmd` PATH shim so `subminer` works in any terminal without manually adding `SubMiner.exe` to PATH.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **macOS Overlay:** Significantly improved overlay focus and stability: the overlay now hides when mpv loses focus or is minimized, stays stable through transient window-tracking misses, remains correctly layered during stats mouse passthrough, and opens over fullscreen mpv without switching Spaces. Passthrough is also fixed so mpv controls stay clickable before hovering a subtitle bar. Background tracking overhead is reduced while mpv is stably focused.
+
+- **Subtitle Sync Modal:** Fixed a macOS issue where opening the subtitle sync modal would flash and disappear on the first attempt, or leave stale state after syncing.
+
+- **Controller:** Controller config and debug shortcuts now stay closed while controller support is disabled, with a notice to enable `controller.enabled`. Learn mode can be entered from the edit pencil or binding badge, remaps are saved per controller profile, and individual bindings can be reset to their defaults.
+
+- **AniList Progress:** Progress threshold checks now use fresh playback position data, so updates fire correctly when playback reaches or skips past the watched threshold. Season-specific results are preferred for multi-season files, and a clear message is shown when the matched season is not in Planning or Watching status.
+
+- **Character Dictionary:** Cached media matches are reused when loading a title with an existing snapshot, avoiding redundant AniList search requests on repeat visits.
+
+- **Updater - Linux:** The tray app now uses GitHub release metadata for update checks instead of the native Electron updater, preventing crashes. `subminer -u` performs updates independently of any running tray instance and correctly reports "up to date" without downloading assets when no newer release exists.
+
+- **Updater - macOS:** Update dialogs now come to the front when launched from `subminer --update`. Builds that cannot install native updates show a manual-install message instead of an inapplicable restart prompt. Signed macOS builds remain on the native updater path without triggering premature Squirrel install checks.
+
+- **Setup - macOS:** First-run setup now recognizes existing `subminer` launcher installs in Homebrew or user PATH directories, and manual setup avoids writing into Homebrew-owned paths. `subminer app --setup` opens the setup flow even when SubMiner is already running in the background. The standalone setup app quits after completing first-run setup, returning control to the terminal.
+
+- **Launcher - Linux:** First-run launcher installs are now built with a valid Bun shebang, fixing installs that previously failed silently.
+
+- **Tray App:** Fixed several lifecycle issues with tray-launched Yomitan settings: the tray stays running when settings are closed; settings loading no longer blocks other tray actions; the settings window uses a close-only menu to prevent accidentally quitting the tray app; an in-page close button is provided on Hyprland where native window controls are unavailable; the embedded popup preview is disabled to prevent renderer hangs during sidebar navigation; extension refreshes at startup are serialized to prevent race conditions; and the session help modal can now close correctly without mpv running.
+
+- **Build - Linux Install:** Fixed one-shot `make clean build install` flows so the install step correctly picks up the AppImage produced earlier in the same make invocation.
+
+## Installation
+
+See the README and docs/installation guide for full setup steps.
+
+## Assets
+
+- Linux: `SubMiner.AppImage`
+- macOS: `SubMiner-*.dmg` and `SubMiner-*.zip`
+- Optional extras: `subminer-assets.tar.gz` and the `subminer` launcher
+
+Note: the `subminer` wrapper script uses Bun (`#!/usr/bin/env bun`), so `bun` must be installed and on `PATH`.

-## Highlights
-### Added
-
-- **Character Dictionary:** Added AniList-based selection to resolve character dictionary mismatches, with series-scoped overrides that replace stale entries. Available via `subminer dictionary --candidates` / `--select` and a default `Ctrl+Alt+A` in-app shortcut.
-- **Subtitle Bar Toggle:** Added a `V` shortcut and mpv binding to toggle the primary subtitle bar independently of mpv's native subtitle display.
-- **Texthooker:** Added `subminer texthooker -o` and a tray menu item to open the local texthooker page in the default browser.
-
-### Changed
-
-- **mpv Plugin Setup:** Managed launches now inject the bundled plugin automatically. The setup flow can trash detected legacy global plugin files before launch, and legacy global install entrypoints have been removed so regular mpv playback is unaffected.
-- **Tray Menu:** Replaced "Open Overlay" with "Open Help," which opens the session help modal.
-- **Stats Exclusions:** Vocabulary exclusions now persist in the immersion database and migrate existing browser-local exclusions on first load.
-- **Config Defaults:** Disabled texthooker startup, subtitle, and annotation websocket servers by default. Fresh installs now use a Japanese font stack, transparent subtitle backgrounds, stronger text shadows, and teal N4/fourth-band coloring for primary subtitles. Yomitan popup auto-pause remains enabled.
-- **Config Example:** The generated example config now lists every built-in keybinding default.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **Subtitle Annotations — Grammar Filtering:** Suppressed N+1, JLPT, frequency, and name styling on grammar-only tokens: standalone interjections (`あ`, katakana variants), kana grammar helpers (`ことに`), auxiliary inflection fragments (`れる`, `れた`), polite copula tails (`です`, `じゃないですか`), standalone particles matched by known-word decks, and existence verbs (`ある`/`有る`). Known-word highlighting is preserved where applicable.
-- **Subtitle Annotations — Color Priority:** Fixed token color priority so typography settings are preserved, JLPT colors no longer override higher-priority known-word or frequency colors, JLPT underlines persist at their correct color after dictionary lookups and when a token also carries known-word or frequency annotations, and frequency highlighting works correctly for ordinal prefix-noun tokens like `第二`.
-- **Subtitle Annotations — Other:** Stopped kana-only tokens from being selected as N+1 targets; preserved Yomitan compound tokens so known component words no longer color a larger unknown word green; kept annotation prefetch running after immediate cache-hit renders; added a brightness lift for annotated token hover states when hover backgrounds are transparent; accepted `subtitleStyle.hoverBackground` as an alias for `subtitleStyle.hoverTokenBackgroundColor`; refreshed the current subtitle after successful card mining so newly known words recolor immediately.
-- **Subtitle Bar:** Changed `v` to cycle the primary subtitle bar through visible, hover, and hidden modes with OSD feedback. Added `subtitleStyle.primaryDefaultMode` to set the startup visibility default independently from secondary subtitles.
-- **Tokenizer:** Now uses Yomitan `wordClasses` metadata for part-of-speech filtering, and backfills blank MeCab POS fields during parser enrichment.
-- **Overlay (Linux):** Fixed multi-line subtitle copy timing out after the prompt; follow-up number-row digits are now accepted for multi-line mining even when the original shortcut modifiers are still held.
-- **Overlay (Hyprland):** Fixed fullscreen transitions so overlay geometry refreshes on mpv fullscreen changes, topmost stacking is reasserted, and hover pause works correctly after resize/toggle cycles. Overlay windows now align precisely to mpv bounds with floating decoration disabled; the stats overlay is opaque to prevent mpv bleed-through at the top edge; overlay windows no longer pin across workspaces.
-- **Overlay (macOS):** Kept the overlay visible and interactive during transient tracker refreshes while mpv is the active tracked window, and kept it behind unrelated foreground windows while remaining above mpv.
-- **Overlay:** Keyboard-only Yomitan popup shortcuts now take precedence over overlay keybindings like `j`; the browser focus outline is hidden so focused overlays no longer show a yellow/orange viewport border.
-- **Default Keybindings:** Fixed replay/next subtitle keybindings — session help moved to `Ctrl/Cmd+/`, freeing `Ctrl+Shift+H` and `Ctrl+Shift+L` for subtitle playback controls. `Ctrl+Shift+L` now correctly reaches play-next-subtitle, and play-next resumes from a paused state before pausing again at the subtitle end.
-- **Anki:** Manual clipboard subtitle updates preserve existing word audio while replacing sentence audio, animated-image media, and expression fields — even when audio overwrite is configured off.
-- **AniList:** Post-watch progress checks now run on time-position updates using the fresh mpv position; manual mark-watched forces a progress sync; missing episode metadata is filled from the filename parser. Duplicate writes during concurrent checks are prevented, and manual watched marks are preserved when sync fails.
-- **AniList (Linux):** Retried safeStorage availability after transient keyring failures so tokens can load and save once the keyring becomes available. Prevented config reload from opening the setup window during playback when token storage cannot be resolved, and stopped the setup flow from reporting success when token persistence fails.
-- **mpv:** Stopped mpv from holding SubMiner subprocesses during shutdown, preventing desktop crash notifications on video close. Kept the overlay alive across same-media buffering reloads to avoid duplicate startup gates and AniSkip lookups; playlist navigation now reuses the running overlay without repeating the pause-until-ready warmup gate.
-- **Launcher:** Managed playback now exits the background SubMiner app when the video closes; explicit background launches remain persistent.
-- **Stats:** Background mode routes through the isolated stats daemon; app startup defers to an already-running daemon instead of failing when the port is already in use. Fixed recent session detail pages showing "Media not found" before lifetime media summaries are available.
-- **Jellyfin:** Improved setup with recent server selection and inline authentication feedback. Added a tray toggle for runtime-only cast discovery.
