type: changed area: launcher

• Changed app-owned YouTube playback to auto-load the default primary subtitle and a best-effort secondary subtitle at startup instead of forcing the picker modal first.
• Kept startup playback gating tied only to primary subtitle load and tokenization readiness; secondary failures no longer block resume.
• Added a default Ctrl+Shift+J keybinding that opens the YouTube subtitle picker manually during active YouTube playback.
• Routed primary YouTube subtitle auto-load failures through the configured notification output path so failed startup still resumes cleanly.
• Fixed startup-launched YouTube playback so primary subtitle overlay updates continue after auto-load completes.
• Fixed auto-loaded YouTube primary subtitles so parsed cues appear in the subtitle sidebar without needing a manual picker retry.
