v0.9.70
Fix: shard reconstruction

PureWolf v0.9.55 — Changelog

Native & Sync
- Fixed sync progress bar stuck at 0.0% — now shows animated indeterminate bar during Gnomon fastsync since block progress is not available until completion
- Fixed sync percentage calculation — after fastsync, progress is now relative to the gap being closed (e.g. 343 blocks = 0→100%) instead of comparing against the full chain height of 6.7M blocks
- Fixed sync complete firing too early — added indexed > 0 guard to prevent false completion trigger before indexing has actually started
- Gnomon now reads LastIndexedHeight and ChainHeight directly from the indexer struct instead of querying the database, which always returned 0 during fastsync

Search
- Fixed duplicate SCIDs appearing on refresh — load token cancellation system ensures stale loads self-cancel when a newer load starts
- Fixed search results empty after sync — loadSearchSCIDs now correctly triggers after sync completes
- SCID results now load directly on click by default — clicking a name, URL or SCID in search results immediately loads it

Settings
- Added Direct Load SCIDs toggle — controls whether clicking a search result loads it immediately or just fills the SCID input
- Toggle saves instantly on change, no Save button required
- Fixed settings not persisting — saveSettings was writing to localStorage before reading the checkbox value, saving stale data
- Fixed loadSettings — directLoad restore was inside a conditional block that silently skipped when no default node was set
- Save and Reset buttons now grouped inside the Default Node setting where they belong

UI
- Fixed duplicate onMessage listener — two listeners were registered, causing double handling of every native message
- Fixed resetSyncProgress missing — was called in multiple places but never defined, causing silent errors on disconnect
- syncStartHeight now resets on disconnect and reconnect so relative progress bar starts correctly each session

Bug fix: <pre><code> didn't break on page end.

UI / Status Indicators

Replaced all emoji status indicators (🟢 🔴 ⏳) with CSS-controlled status dots across dashboard.js and popup.js
Added four dot states: connected (green pulse), pending (amber fast pulse), warning (amber static), error (red static)
Sync label now shows dot + text: "Not syncing", "X% syncing...", "Synced"
Native status in popup now uses dots for Running / Disconnected / Stopped / Reconnecting states

Styling

Full CSS overhaul to match dark tech aesthetic: near-black backgrounds, cyan accent (#00d4ff), green success (#00ff88), glowing borders and button hovers
Buttons converted to outlined style (transparent background, colored border, fills on hover)
Nav items now uppercase with letter-spacing
Setting labels styled as accent-colored uppercase headers
SCID SVG icons now render in accent color
Scrollbar slimmed to 6px, thumb turns accent color on hover
Sidebar logo repositioned to the right via margin-left: auto and order: 3
Search bar made sticky on scroll in the search page

Change the install link to the native release on github

There are a lot fixes and changes, mainly to the backend.
The applications in open-source:

UI updates

Updated the README and the extension help page for the new way of installing the native package.

The curl installer is a streaming installer, so it downloads and sets up everything in one go, with no temporary files needed

Major internal upgrade: the native messaging backend has been fully rewritten in Go, replacing the previous Python implementation.
This improves performance, reduces resource usage, and provides a more stable bridge between PureWolf and local TELA / Gnomon services.
