New Features - GitHub release update check — Automatic check every 4 hours with bubble notification when a new version is available. "Download" opens the release page; "Skip" dismisses that version.

Fixed with newtype wrapper - Fast-flick drag drops — Added Pointer Capture (setPointerCapture) on hit window for reliable drag events Internal - update_check.rs — new module: reqwest + rustls-tls for GitHub API, semver comparison, auto/manual check with bubble feedback - PeekSuppressDeadline — newtype wrapper with u64::MAX sentinel for "wait until mouse exits" - PeekPhase enum — Hidden/Peeking/Retracting state machine replacing simple boolean - Near detection uses visible bounds (clamped to monitor) instead...
