Shipped

minecraft-new-tab saw a full day of feature and reliability work:

Added a pinned browser client and a local Paper play stack, plus a new-tab browser extension with secure browser routing and persistent maintenance.
Fixed browser play to launch with conservative rendering defaults, honor the native stopped state, and wait for cold container images.
Improved cloud behavior: container redeploys are now supported, mutable backup files are excluded, backups are coalesced, and unused cloud services were removed.
Added a solo Mineflare profile and documented the solo Mineflare plan.
Expanded docs with reproducible local, Cloudflare, and extension setup, plus clarification on verified setup and cloud restart limitations.

didweship shipped several user-facing improvements:

Summary rankings now sort by current streak, and streak cards are numbered in a single column (merged via PR #21).
Dashboard typography now uses self-hosted Ioskeley Mono (merged via PR #22).
Added aniqa from issue #16 (merged via PR #20).
Fixed the dashboard to show the configured X profile before refresh (#18).
CI now uses the GitHub Actions commit author (#19).

minecraft-new-tab: 10 commits pushed, spanning features (browser client, extension, Mineflare profile), fixes (rendering defaults, container handling, backup coalescing), and documentation (setup guides, Mineflare plan).
didweship: 9 commits pushed, including three merged pull requests (#20, #21, #22) covering streak ranking, font self-hosting, and a new contributor addition, plus two PR-based fixes (#18, #19).
No releases or forks today.
