Proof boundary

Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and QuickTime whole-display/window-share validation is still manual and unknown. This release changes the app-owned menu-bar glyph. It does not suppress Apple privacy indicators or guarantee pixel exclusion from whole-display capture.

Review

Independent Codex review found two release-presentation issues that were fixed:

• The replaced DMG briefly disagreed with the committed appcast/cask; the current asset, signature, checksum, size, fixtures, and Sentry dSYM now match.
• The PR and public release notes contained escaped newline text; both now render as normal Markdown.

No remaining code or metadata defect was found. The release remains draft because the crash-free gate is YELLOW at 2/25 sessions and the manual screen-share matrix is still unknown.
