v1.3.0

Binky is now fully automation-first.

Highlights

• Menu bar sorting now supports automation selection:
  • Sort ▶ appears when multiple automations are enabled
  • Sort All Folders sweeps every enabled automation
  • pick an automation by name to sweep just that folder
• Sorting model rename cleanup in codebase:
  • InboxSortRule is now SortRule
  • persisted user data remains backward-compatible
• Folder-first terminology pass across UI and copy for clearer language (replacing confusing "inbox" wording in user-visible surfaces).
• Settings launch reliability improved from the menu bar (including menu-bar-only scenarios).

Under the hood

• Added archive / installer routing services:
  • ArchiveExtractionService
  • DMGInstallerService
• Expanded automation routing coverage and tests (AutomationsOverhaulTests).
• Help docs refreshed to explain automations and menu bar sort behavior.

Site / docs

• Updated screenshots and marketing/docs copy to match the organizer-first automation workflow.
