The server's version is stamped like the app's (APP_VERSION) when packaged,
so it can compare against the manifest; --upgrade swaps the whole install
folder (app and server) and asks for a restart. update.sh/.bat no longer
need GTK.

yt-dlp: a managed, checksum-verified, daily-updated yt-dlp in the app and
the dedicated server (--[no-]yt-dlp, --yt-dlp-dir). Pasted links are
probed: direct files stay links, pages are resolved for title, uploader,
duration and thumbnail. Everyone fetches it: mpv's ytdl hook on the
managed copy. I pass it on / the server fetches it: the best single-file
format, re-resolved once when its URL expires. Relay names never split
the /r/ path; viewers of server-fetched pages wait for the relay to go
live. No wire change.
Icon: two stars orbiting a play button (assets/icon/icon.svg, PNGs, the
Windows .ico). GTK app id moe.senkochan.watch_together; release builds
install their .desktop file and icons into ~/.local/share so Wayland
shows the icon; the window icon is set for X11. README shows the icon.

Vendored Anime4K v4.0.1 GLSL (MIT), extracted to app support once per
version. Presets A/B/C/A+A/B+B/C+A in HQ and Fast per Anime4K's mpv
templates, plus custom files. Shader button in the video controls
(works in fullscreen), Ctrl+1..6 / Ctrl+0, live apply with read-back,
failures fall back to Off with a toast. Render mode detected from
mpv's GL log; warns when on the software path. Docs include the
Jellyfin client section.

Updater: watch-together --upgrade checks updates/manifest.json,
downloads the tarball, verifies sha256, applies over the live
install (extract-temp + delete-first move-over; rename-safe on
Linux while running). Zero Flutter imports, 7 tests incl.
stub-server flows. Version stamped via --dart-define=APP_VERSION
in package script. Warns (never silently jumps) on proto mismatch.
Roadmap: phases retired as tracker (history in git log), now flat
Built/Backlog/Epics/Deferred; Jellyfin next feature, transcode
never; updater expansion stays an epic. Endpoint publishing
(manifest + release tarball) is user-owned.
