MelumiyaChat Windows v0.9.15 — UI parity update — 20 Aug 2026

Baseline: MelumiyaChat_Windows_v0.9.15_COSMIC_VIOLET_THEME.zip
Changes synced from the approved Web v1.0.9 direction:
- Story-first Home with Updates at the top
- Continue where you left off + visual recent RP cards
- Quick Create + compact library stats
- Midnight black/plum/violet shell (less cold blue)
- Premium grouped sidebar with richer active/hover states
- Scenario covers always render, with bundled cinematic fallbacks
- RP canvas is true black
- [Character Name] speaker labels are removed at display time only; saved RP text is unchanged
- Clear ← Menu exit inside RP; Escape also returns to Home when no modal is open
- Home greeting uses the user's chosen profile picture; neutral initial fallback instead of app logo

QA: JavaScript syntax, Python compile, platform/context/scenario/creator/reroll/end-to-end RP regressions, and customer self-test passed.
