Summary

Version 2.0.5 delivers major reliability fixes to Stealth Mode and Process Disguise.

Improvements

• Stealth Mode UI: The Process Disguise selector is now visually disabled and locked while Undetectable mode is active, preventing accidental state mismatches.
• State Synchronization: Greatly improved internal state synchronization across all application windows (Settings, Launcher, Overlay).

Fixes

• Infinite Feedback Loops: Completely eliminated the bug where toggling Undetectable mode would sometimes cause the app to rapidly toggle itself on and off.
• Delayed Dock Reappearance: Fixed a regression where the macOS dock icon would mysteriously reappear several seconds after entering stealth mode if a disguise had recently been changed.
• Initial State Loading: Fixed an issue where the Settings UI would briefly show incorrect toggle states when first opened.
• macOS OS-level Events: Hardened the app against macOS activate events (like clicking the app in Finder) accidentally breaking stealth mode.

Technical

• Refactored IPC (Inter-Process Communication) listeners for SettingsPopup and SettingsOverlay to use a strict one-way (receive-only) data binding pattern.
• Added strict management and cancellation of forceUpdate timeouts during stealth mode transitions.
• Added explicit type safety for the new getters in electron.d.ts.
