# Changelog

## 0.1.0-alpha.2

- Rebuilds all five bundled characters as Hatch v1 nine-state, 57-frame animated atlases with strict transparent PNG output.
- Replaces static custom pets with generated-3D or automatic local-2.5D animated hatching.
- Makes the image-generation credential optional; DeepSeek-only setups now complete through the local 2.5D fallback.
- Isolates the dominant uploaded subject and removes connected background plus unrelated surrounding components in the local path.
- Closes Settings after staging the editable `/create-desktop-pet` request so the conversation composer is immediately visible.
- Updates the native macOS helper, browser fallback, persisted custom-pet schema, packaged Skill, and release verification for animated atlases.
