e17454b553 [CmdPal Calculator] Add rand() and randi(). Expand result responses to differentiate between NaN and ParseError (#47725)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This adds `rand()` and `randi()` functions to Command Palette's
Calculator, making it consistent with Run.

It also expands upon the return values from `ToWStringFullPrecision()`,
so NaN, ParseError and +/-infinity results are passed back to the
caller, improving the specificity of the error message display.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The two new functions have been added to **ExprtkEvaluator.cpp**,
alongside `sign()` and `factorial()`. As they need to handle the state
of the RNG, they're slightly more complex in implementation. I used the
Mersenne Twister RNG with a uniform distribution, and the instances are
marked `static thread_local` in case the engine moves to multithreaded
evaluation in the future.

It's possible for the RNG to return a value out of the range of
`double`, and this is caught and `quiet_NaN()` is returned. To prevent
this being caught as a generic parse error, I updated
`ToWStringFullPrecision()` to distinguish between `NaN`, expression
parsing errors and infinity values. This should improve the accuracy of
error messages for other expressions, too.

Finally, I corrected a comment in **CalculateEngine.cs,** which still
referred to the Mages calculation engine. The log/ln mapping is the same
for both engines, so the comment was still accurate except for this
reference.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Unit tests were added to exercise the new functions. All Calculator
tests pass:

703dc92c04 [CmdPal Calculator] Fix issue for multi-argument functions where comma is both the number group separator and list separator (#47731)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This fixes Calculator functions with multiple arguments in cultures
where the number group separator and list separator are identical, e.g.
**en-US** and **en-GB**.

It maintains existing parsing behaviour for other cultures where the
separators differ, e.g. **de-DE**.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

The root issue was in the number translation step. In cultures such as
en-US, commas were being consumed as part of numeric tokens and were
treated as number group separators, which broke functions whcih took
multiple arguments. For example, `max(1,2)` would be translated as
`max(12)` and `pow(2,3)` as `pow(23)`. The number translator's result
would be passed on to ExprTK, which could sometimes still interpret the
input and would give a result (`12` in the case of `max(1,2)`); for
cases like `pow(2,3)`, it would surface an error, as the expression
`pow(23)` is invalid.

This fix resolves the ambiguity in two ways:
- It uses stricter grouped number matching when the culture's list
separator and number group separator are the same.
- It preserves separator characters for multi-argument functions. This
means that expressions like `max(123,456)` are correctly interpreted as
two arguments inside the function call, while `123,456` outside a
function call is still interpreted as a grouped number.

Care has been taken to preserve grouped numbers inside single-argument
functions, e.g. `ceil(123,456.23)`.

The more permissive parsing for cultures which do not have this
ambiguity has been retained. (Arguably this is too loose, but that's
something to consider separately.)

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Added and updated unit tests, with **en-US** used as the representative
'ambiguous culture'. Coverage includes:

- `max()`, `min()` and `pow()`
- Grouped numbers in single-argument functions like `ceil()`, `floor()`,
`round()`, `log()` and `sin()`.
- Nested expressions
- Spacing around function calls
- Scientific notation
- Hexadecimal, binary and octal literals

All tests pass:

- Multi-argument functions now evaluate correctly

2d3f93537f CmdPal: Move bookmarks with placeholders to be parameters (#47886)
The placeholders page for a bookmark is already goofy. It's a seemingly
simple form, for just filling in something that really should be an
inline value.

So let's do that!

This moves the placeholders out of a whole adaptive card, and into an
inline parameter.

a187bfc2bb CmdPal: Pass extension log messages into logging system (#47896)
This pull request updates the logging behavior in the `LogMessage`
method to ensure that log messages are categorized and logged according
to their severity (Error, Warning, or Info), instead of always using
debug-level logging.

Logging improvements:

* Updated the `LogMessage` method in `AppExtensionHost.cs` to log
messages using `CoreLogger.LogError`, `CoreLogger.LogWarning`, or
`CoreLogger.LogInfo` based on the `MessageState` of the incoming
message, improving log clarity and severity categorization.

Previously, any logging sent to LogMessage (which is exposed in the
toolkit) would only be written when debugging. Any error/warning/info
messages sent as part of the normal operation would be bypassed because
it only used `CoreLogger.LogDebug`

Now extension developers can log errors/warnings and use PowerToys log
export / bug report feature to help their users provide them with
actionable data to make their extensions better.

42902eeba5 CmdPal: Add support for pages with parameters (redux) (#47826)
(this PR is an updated version of #43784)

This PR adds a new type of page to Command Palette: 
The `ParametersPage`.

This allows extensions to create commands that require a set of
parameters
before invoking the command. Previously, extensions could create
commands with a
form page to use an adaptive card for parameter input, but that was a
relatively
heavyweight UX. 

Instead, the `ParametersPage` allows extensions to define a set of
lightweight
inputs, which allows for a more streamlined experience. 

The parameters page is made up of a set of "runs". Each run represents a
single element in the search box. Runs can be either:
* A label run: a static piece of text
* An value run: some input for the user to provide a value. These fall
into several categories:
  * String input
  * Command Input
    * `IInvokableCommand`s become buttons in the search box
* `IListPage`s become a list input to pick from (**these will be added
in a follow-up PR**)

There are a ton of samples included. 

I also added all my draft notes in the drafts folder, to see how we got
here.
I'd skip reviewing those.

Furthermore, I added the "dumb" token support, where an extension can
opt in to
having tokens in the search box, delimited by ZWSP characters. 

The XAML styling was fixed by Niels a few months back

Closes #40948

b99defbc0d CmdPal: Add setting to hide app descriptions in All Apps (#47128)
## Summary

Adds a **Hide app descriptions** toggle setting to the Command Palette
All Apps extension. When enabled, the descriptive subtitle text next to
app results is hidden for a cleaner look.

### Changes

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `AllAppsSettings.cs` | New `HideAppDescriptions` `ToggleSetting`
(default: `false`), following the existing `EnableStartMenuSource`
pattern |
| `AllAppsPage.cs` | Conditionally clears `Subtitle` on each
`AppListItem` in `GetPrograms()` when setting is enabled |
| `Resources.resx` / `Resources.Designer.cs` | Resource strings for the
setting label and description |
| `AllAppsPageTests.cs` | Two new tests verifying subtitle visibility
with setting on/off |

### Validation

- [x] Build clean (exit code 0)
- [x] All 14 unit tests pass (including 2 new tests)
- [x] Setting defaults to `false` (preserves current behavior)
- [x] Empty subtitle renders gracefully (no placeholder shown)
- [x] No ABI breaks — all changes scoped to All Apps extension

Closes #46634

08caf10d84 CmdPal: Fix CmdPal command bar not refreshing on back navigation (#47126)
## Summary

Fixes #46810 — When navigating backward in CmdPal (Esc/Backspace), the
bottom command bar retained stale commands from the previous page until
the user changed selection.

## Root Cause

In `ListPage.xaml.cs` `OnNavigatedTo()`, the back-navigation path sets
selection using `SuppressSelectionChangedScope()`, which prevents
`Items_SelectionChanged` from firing. This means `PushSelectionToVm()`
is never called, so `UpdateCommandBarMessage` is never sent to
`CommandBarViewModel`, and the command bar displays stale state.

## Fix

Added `PushSelectionToVm()` after the selection restoration block inside
the back-navigation dispatcher callback. This is safe because:
- `PushSelectionToVm()` is idempotent (guards with
`ReferenceEquals(_lastPushedToVm, li)`)
- Handles both selected items (pushes to VM) and no selection (sends
null)
- Triggers `UpdateCommandBarMessage` which refreshes the command bar

## Validation

### Manual Test Steps

| Scenario | Expected |
|----------|----------|
| **Esc navigation** — Navigate into nested page, press Esc | Bottom bar
commands update immediately to parent page |
| **Backspace navigation** — Navigate into nested page, press Backspace
| Bottom bar commands update immediately to parent page |
| **Forward navigation** — Navigate forward into a page | Commands
update (no regression) |
| **Selection change** — Change selection on any page | Commands update
(no regression) |
| **No flicker** — Navigate back and observe command bar | Single clean
update, no double-fire |
| **Empty page** — Navigate back to page with no selectable items |
Graceful handling, no crash |

eaaba455dd CmdPal: Fix pluralization in CmdPal Extensions settings page (#47125)
## Summary

Fixes the pluralization bug in Command Palette settings where extensions
with a single command displayed "1 commands" and "1 fallback commands"
instead of the correct singular forms.

### Changes

**`ProviderSettingsViewModel.cs`** — Rewrote the `ExtensionSubtext`
property to use tuple pattern matching that selects the correct
singular/plural format string based on whether command count and
fallback count equal 1.

**`Resources.resx`** — Added 4 new resource strings for singular form
combinations:
- `builtin_extension_subtext_singular` — "{0}, {1} command"
- `builtin_extension_subtext_with_fallback_singular_command` — "{0}, {1}
command, {2} fallback commands"
- `builtin_extension_subtext_with_fallback_singular_fallback` — "{0},
{1} commands, {2} fallback command"
- `builtin_extension_subtext_with_fallback_singular_both` — "{0}, {1}
command, {2} fallback command"

**`ProviderSettingsViewModelPluralizationTests.cs`** — 17 new test cases
covering all singular/plural combinations for command and fallback
command counts.

### Validation

- [x] Matches existing `CompositeFormat` pattern used elsewhere in
CmdPal
- [x] Follows `.editorconfig` and StyleCop conventions
- [x] All files within `CommandPalette.slnf` scope

Closes #47110

b68b2a5583 Fix GrabAndMove LNK2038 C++/WinRT version mismatch (PowerToys CI break) (#47910)
Diagnostic / prototype fix for the LNK2038 C++/WinRT version mismatch
that has been failing PowerToys CI on every batched-CI run since commit
`59eefd9581` (5/14):

`
SettingsAPI.lib(settings_objects.obj): error LNK2038: mismatch detected
for 'C++/WinRT version':
  value '2.0.250303.1' doesn't match value '2.0.250303.5' in main.obj
  [src/modules/GrabAndMove/GrabAndMove/GrabAndMove.vcxproj]
`

## Root cause

GrabAndMove.vcxproj does not import the `Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT`
NuGet package, so `main.cpp` picks up `<winrt/Windows.Foundation.h>`
(included transitively via `SettingsAPI/settings_objects.h` ->
`common/utils/json.h`) from the **Windows SDK's in-box CppWinRT**
instead of the repo-pinned NuGet version.

After the SHINE-VS18-Latest agent image picked up a newer Windows SDK
shipping `CppWinRT 2.0.250303.5`, `main.obj` began emitting that version
via `#pragma detect_mismatch`, while `SettingsAPI.lib` continued to be
built against the pinned NuGet `2.0.250303.1`. The linker rejects the
mix.

This was masked while the agent SDK happened to ship a matching CppWinRT
version, and surfaced after #47470 (Bump WindowsAppSDK to 2.0.1) plus
the agent image roll.

## Fix

Mirror the canonical CppWinRT NuGet wiring used by every other native
vcxproj in the repo (see `src/common/SettingsAPI/SettingsAPI.vcxproj`
for the reference pattern):

- Add `packages.config` pinning `Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT
2.0.250303.1`.
- Import the props after `Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props`.
- Import the targets in an `ExtensionTargets` `ImportGroup`.
- Add `EnsureNuGetPackageBuildImports` for restore-time validation.

## Validation

- Local x64/Release build of GrabAndMove.vcxproj clean (linked against
SettingsAPI.lib without LNK2038).
- (Local SDK on the dev box already ships matching CppWinRT
2.0.250303.1, so the LNK2038 cannot reproduce locally; the CI pool agent
has the newer SDK that exposes the latent issue.)
- Awaiting PowerToys CI to confirm fix on the agent image.

## Related

- #47470 (Bump WindowsAppSDK to 2.0.1) — preceded but did not directly
cause this; just changed which CppWinRT was sitting in the include path.
- Failing CI runs: 319304, 319351, 319593 (all on shine-oss PowerToys CI
definition 3).

    get => _name;
    set
    {
        if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value))
        {
            SetProperty(ref _name, value);
        }
    }
}
```

Invalid assignments (empty, null, whitespace) are silently ignored,
preserving the existing value. This matches the existing pattern used
for `FileName` validation in `ImageResizerViewModel`.

TwoWay binding in UI causes the TextBox to revert when users attempt to
clear the field—standard behavior for required fields.

## Validation Steps Performed

- Added unit test `ImageSizeNameShouldNotBeSetToEmptyOrNull()` covering
all rejection and acceptance cases
- Verified silent rejection behavior matches `FileName` property pattern

e932fe6e61 Remove unused dependencies and shrink installer size (#47233)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Two related installer changes to (1) eliminate genuinely-unused
dependencies and (2) deduplicate shared WinAppSDK files between
`<install>\` and `<install>\WinUI3Apps\` to shrink the installer
download.

### 1. Remove unused dependencies (~11 MB savings per output location)

- **System.Data.SqlClient**: Removed from MouseWithoutBorders projects
and the central `Directory.Packages.props` pin. It was a transitive
dependency of `Microsoft.Windows.Compatibility` but PowerToys has zero
SQL database usage.
- **Unused `using` import**: Removed `using
System.ServiceModel.Channels` from MouseWithoutBorders `Program.cs` (no
WCF usage).
- **MFC / C++ AMP / OpenMP DLLs**: Added `RemoveUnusedVCRuntimeDlls`
target in `Directory.Build.targets` to clean up `mfc140*`, `mfcm140*`,
`vcamp140*`, and `vcomp140*` DLLs that leak from the VC++
Redistributable tree but are not imported by any PowerToys binary
(verified with `dumpbin /dependents` across all installed binaries).
Also excluded MFC DLLs from installer file collection.

### 2. WinAppSDK file deduplication (build-time only; install-time uses
copy)

**Background**: The `WinUI3Apps` subfolder must remain a real directory
because MSIX sparse package registration applies DACL changes to the
`ExternalLocation` folder (PR #47177). Flattening is not viable.

**Build-time** (`generateAllFileComponents.ps1`): computes the SHA256
intersection of root and `WinUI3Apps` files, and for each file that is
also present in the BaseApplications WXS file list, removes the
duplicate from the WinUI3Apps WXS component list and writes its name to
a `hardlinks.txt` manifest. The BaseApplications cross-check ensures we
never deduplicate a file the MSI does not actually deploy at the install
root, which would otherwise leave both copies missing post-install. The
manifest is written as UTF-8 without BOM (via
`[System.IO.File]::WriteAllLines` with `UTF8Encoding($false)`) so its
encoding is identical regardless of the build host's PowerShell version.
This step produces the **MSI download-size win** (~97 MB smaller cab;
LZX:21 was already deduplicating most byte-identical content
automatically inside the cab).

**Install-time** (`CreateWinAppSDKHardlinksCA` custom action):
- Reads `hardlinks.txt` after `InstallFiles` as a raw byte stream and
converts each line to a `std::wstring` via `MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8,
MB_ERR_INVALID_CHARS, ...)`. Avoids `std::wifstream`'s ANSI-codepage
codecvt so non-ASCII paths can never be silently mangled.
- For each entry, computes `(installDir / fileName).lexically_normal()`
and `(winui3Dir / fileName).lexically_normal()`, then verifies via
`std::mismatch` that each resolved path is still rooted at its
respective folder. Manifest entries containing `..`, absolute paths, or
alternate-stream syntax are logged and skipped.
- Materialises each validated entry from `<install>\<name>` into
`<install>\WinUI3Apps\<name>` via `fs::copy_file` (overwrite_existing).
- Reports the per-file copy / failure counts to the install log. If
every entry failed (`created == 0 && failed > 0`), the CA escalates to
`E_FAIL` so the install does not silently succeed with an unusable
WinUI3Apps tree.

`DeleteWinAppSDKHardlinksCA` removes the materialised copies before
`RemoveFiles` on uninstall, using the same UTF-8 reader and per-entry
containment check.

**WiX sequencing**: `CreateWinAppSDKHardlinks` runs
`After="InstallFiles"` with `Condition="NOT Installed OR
WIX_UPGRADE_DETECTED OR REINSTALL"` so a `msiexec /fa` repair refreshes
the deduplicated copies (otherwise `RemoveFiles` would orphan them).

#### Why copy and not hard-link

A hard-linked variant of this CA was originally proposed but caused a
Monaco preview-handler regression. Hard-links share an NTFS inode (and
therefore one DACL) between `<install>\<file>` and
`<install>\WinUI3Apps\<file>`. The MSIX sparse-package registrations for
PowerRename / ImageResizer / FileLocksmith / NewPlus run after the dedup
CA and propagate the `WinUI3Apps` parent's rich DACL (Capability SID, 5×
Package SIDs, 5× conditional SYSAPPID ACE, RC SID) onto the shared
inode. The root path then also exposes the rich DACL, which trips a
kernel "stricter access evaluation" path that blocks the LOW-IL
`prevhost.exe` from `LoadLibrary`-ing `hostfxr.dll` (and the rest of the
.NET runtime), turning the Monaco preview pane blank for `.json` / `.md`
/ `.cs` / `.xaml` / `.svg` / `.xml` files.

`fs::copy_file` creates a **fresh inode** for the WinUI3Apps copy. The
root inode keeps its simple DACL (`SY:F + BA:F + owner:F` + inherited
`BU:RX`) so LOW-IL `prevhost.exe` can still load it — Monaco preview
works. The WinUI3Apps copy inherits the WinUI3Apps parent's rich DACL
via normal NTFS inheritance (matches 0.99.1 behaviour exactly) — MSIX
context-menu shells continue to work.

#### Trade-off

| Metric | Hard-link variant (rejected) | This PR (file copy) | 0.99.1
(no dedup) |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSI size | ~296 MB | ~296 MB | ~393 MB |
| On-disk after install | ~2,475 MB | ~2,772 MB | ~2,772 MB |
| DACL contamination risk | YES (broke Monaco) | NO | NO |

The on-disk savings (~297 MB) are given up in exchange for eliminating
the DACL contamination risk; the **installer download savings (~97 MB)**
are preserved by the build-time WiX/cab dedup.

#### Edge cases handled

- Empty duplicate list: `hardlinks.txt` always written, CA handles
empty.
- All files duplicated: `Generate-FileComponents` returns early for
empty list.
- File stripped from BaseApplications by an earlier build step:
BaseApplications cross-check skips it during dedup so neither copy goes
missing.
- Manifest entry escapes install root (`..`, absolute path): rejected
per-entry, install continues.
- Manifest line is non-UTF-8: rejected per-entry, install continues.
- Source missing at install time: per-entry skip, install continues.
- All copies fail: install aborts loudly via `E_FAIL` (catastrophic-case
escalation).
- Upgrade or `msiexec /fa` repair: CA fires (`NOT Installed OR
WIX_UPGRADE_DETECTED OR REINSTALL`).

**MSI repair risk**: Burn bundle uses `SuppressRepair=yes` and
`MajorUpgrade` (full uninstall + reinstall) for all version upgrades, so
the standard upgrade path is unaffected. The `OR REINSTALL` clause
covers power users running `msiexec /fa` directly.

## PR Checklist

- [x] **Communication:** Discussed approach via PRs #46866, #47177,
#46745
- [ ] **Tests:** Installer infrastructure only — no runtime behaviour
changes
- [ ] **Localization:** N/A
- [ ] **Dev docs:** N/A
- [ ] **New binaries:** N/A

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Based on the approach from PR #46745 by @yeelam-gordon, rebased onto
latest main and switched from hard-links to file copies after the DACL
contamination root cause was identified. Hardening (UTF-8 read, path
containment, catastrophic-case escalation, REINSTALL repair,
BaseApplications-filtered dedup) added in response to review feedback.

These changes are purely build/installer infrastructure — no runtime
behaviour changes to any PowerToys module.

## Validation Steps Performed

Validated on a 0.99.4 / 0.99.5 local install (per-user
`%LocalAppData%\PowerToys`):

-  `dumpbin /dependents` across the installed PowerToys tree confirmed
zero binaries import `mfc140*`, `mfcm140*`, `vcamp140*`, or `vcomp140*`
— the cleanup target removes ~11 MB of genuinely unused VC runtime DLLs.
-  `System.Data.SqlClient` has zero call-sites in PowerToys source.
-  Local installer build produces a 296 MB MSI (down from 393 MB
pre-dedup, ~97 MB cab savings purely from the build-time WiX dedup).
-  MSI table inspection (`wix msi decompile`) confirms the deferred CAs
are present (`CreateWinAppSDKHardlinks`, `DeleteWinAppSDKHardlinks`) and
the `hardlinks.txt` File row is registered.
-  MSI table inspection confirms .NET runtime DLLs (`hostfxr.dll`,
`coreclr.dll`, `hostpolicy.dll`, `clretwrc.dll`, `Accessibility.dll`,
`backup_restore_settings.json`) appear ONLY in
`BaseApplicationsFiles_File_*`, NOT in `WinUI3ApplicationsFiles_File_*`
— proving the build-time dedup worked.
-  Post-install verification: deduplicated files materialised at both
root and WinUI3Apps with byte-identical SHA256 hashes, and `fsutil
hardlink list` returns link-count == 1 for each — proving the
install-time copy approach worked, not hard-link.
-  DACL on root .NET runtime DLLs is clean: no Package SID, no
Capability SID, no SYSAPPID conditional ACE, no `ALL APPLICATION
PACKAGES` ACE — Monaco preview load path is safe.
-  DACL on WinUI3Apps copies has the rich MSIX inheritance —
context-menu shells continue to work (matches 0.99.1).
-  All four MSIX sparse packages (PowerRename, ImageResizer,
FileLocksmith, NewPlus) registered after install.

c7d458b71d Fix auto-label-issues workflow (#47820)
## Summary

Fixes the `Auto-label Issues by Area` workflow, which currently logs
`GITHUB_TOKEN is not set; skipping.` on every run and never applies
labels.

Failing run on issue #47818:
https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/actions/runs/25722067064/job/75525452318

## Root cause

`actions/github-script@v7` consumes its `github-token` input only to
authenticate the injected `github` Octokit object. It does **not**
export that value to `process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN`. The inline script reads
`process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN` to authorize a direct `fetch()` against
`https://models.inference.ai.azure.com/chat/completions`, so the token
check at the top of `labelIssue()` always fails and the function returns
early before calling the model.

## Fix

Add a step-level `env:` block exposing `GITHUB_TOKEN` to the Node
process running the inline script. The existing `with.github-token`
input is preserved so the injected `github` Octokit continues to
authenticate.

`yaml
- name: Apply area labels with AI
  uses: actions/github-script@v7
  env:
    GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
  with:
    github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
`

5 lines added, 0 removed.

## Security

- `secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN` is the workflow's built-in ephemeral token
(auto-issued per run, auto-revoked at job end). Not a PAT.
- Scope is already constrained by `permissions: models: read, issues:
write` at the top of the workflow. No widening.
- Exposure is unchanged: the token is already loaded into the same Node
process by `actions/github-script` via `github-token:`. The `env:`
mapping just lets the script body read what the action already has in
the same process.
- The token is sent only to GitHub's own GitHub Models inference
endpoint, which is the documented use of `models: read`.
- Triggers are safe: `issues: opened/reopened` (issue body is
JSON-encoded into the request body, never interpolated into a shell) and
`workflow_dispatch` (write-access required).
- Token is never logged.

## Validation

After merge, re-run the workflow on issue #47818 via Actions ->
"Auto-label Issues by Area" -> Run workflow, and confirm logs show
`Model response: ...` instead of `GITHUB_TOKEN is not set; skipping.`

c4ff073d01 CmdPal: Extension Gallery (#46636)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Adds the **Extension Gallery** to Command Palette — a built-in page
where users can discover, browse, and install community extensions
without leaving the app.


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e4565333-b970-4085-9e40-5cfd207e533b

## How it works

### 1. The extension author's side

Extensions are listed in the external repo
**[`microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions`](https://github.com/microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions)**.
To get an extension into the in-app gallery, an author opens a PR there
that adds a single entry to `extensions.json`. Nothing in PowerToys
itself needs to change. A typical entry looks like:

```json
{
  "id": "contoso.sample",
  "title": "Sample Extension",
  "description": "Short blurb shown in the list and detail view.",
  "author": { "name": "Contoso", "url": "https://github.com/contoso" },
  "homepage": "https://github.com/contoso/sample",
  "iconUrl": "https://.../icon.png",
  "screenshotUrls": ["https://.../screenshot-1.png"],
  "tags": ["sample"],
  "installSources": [
    { "type": "winget",  "id":  "Contoso.SampleExtension" },
    { "type": "msstore", "id":  "9P..." },
    { "type": "url",     "uri": "https://github.com/contoso/sample/releases/latest" }
  ],
  "detection": { "packageFamilyName": "Contoso.SampleExtension_8wekyb..." }
}
```

- `id`, `title`, `description`, `author.name`, and at least one
`installSources` entry are required; everything else is optional.
- `installSources` can mix and match `winget` / `msstore` / `url`. The
gallery shows an install button for the first source it can handle
(WinGet preferred) and exposes any remaining sources as links.
- `detection.packageFamilyName` lets CmdPal recognise an
already-installed packaged extension before any WinGet lookup resolves,
so the "Installed" badge appears instantly.

Once the PR is merged into `CmdPal-Extensions`, every running copy of
CmdPal picks the new entry up the next time its feed cache expires
(within 4 hours) or when the user clicks **Refresh**.

### 2. What CmdPal does with it

`ExtensionGalleryService` (in `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common`) owns the whole
pipeline:

1. **Resolve the feed URL.** Default is
`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions/refs/heads/main/extensions.json`.
A hidden setting (`GalleryFeedUrl`) lets developers point at a custom
URL or a `file://` path for local testing.
2. **Fetch** the feed through `ExtensionGalleryHttpClient`, which wraps
`HttpCachingClient` — a conditional-GET + on-disk cache layer built on
`HttpClient` (ETag / `If-None-Match`, 30 s timeout, UA
`PowerToys-CmdPal/1.0`).
3. **Parse** with the source-generated `GallerySerializationContext`
into a strongly-typed `GalleryRemoteIndex` (`{ "extensions": [ ... ]
}`). Entries without an `id` are dropped.
4. **Normalize** relative `iconUrl` / `screenshotUrls` against the feed
URL (useful for local `file://` feeds).
5. **Localize icons.** Each HTTP icon URL is pulled through the same
cache and rewritten to a local `file://` URI before the view model binds
to it, so the list renders instantly on subsequent loads and works
offline.
6. **Prune** cached resources that are no longer referenced, but only
after a successful forced refresh.

The gallery page itself is built on top of `ExtensionGalleryViewModel`,
with `ExtensionGalleryItemViewModel` handling per-entry concerns —
install/update/uninstall (via the shared WinGet service),
installed-state detection, and joining in-flight install progress so the
global `WinGetOperationsButton` in the top bar stays in sync.

### 3. Caching + offline behaviour

The cache lives under
`ApplicationData.Current.LocalCacheFolder\GalleryCache\` when CmdPal
runs packaged, or
`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\Microsoft.CmdPal\Cache\GalleryCache\`
when unpackaged.

| Resource        | TTL      |
|-----------------|----------|
| `extensions.json` feed | 4 hours |
| Icons (per URL) | 24 hours |

Each fetch returns a `GalleryFetchResult` whose flags drive the UI:

- `FromCache` — cache was still fresh, no network call was made.
- `UsedFallbackCache` — network failed; the last-known-good cached copy
was served instead. The page shows a "showing cached data" info bar.
- `RateLimited` — origin returned `429` and no fallback was available.
The page shows a rate-limit error.

`RefreshAsync` (wired up to the gallery's refresh button) forces a fresh
conditional GET, then prunes any cached files that the new feed no
longer references.

### 4. WinGet install flow

- `installSources[type=winget].id` is handed to the shared WinGet
service for install/update/uninstall.
- In-flight operations are surfaced by `WinGetOperationsButton` in the
top bar with per-operation progress.
- `detection.packageFamilyName` is consulted first so that the gallery
can show "Installed" / "Update available" without waiting on WinGet
metadata.

### Top-level command cleanup

- Removed the separate "Find extensions from WinGet" and "Find
extensions from the Store" top-level commands — the gallery replaces
both.
- Renamed the gallery command to **"Find and install Command Palette
extensions"** and gave it the extensions puzzle-piece icon.

59eefd9581 [CmdPal and Run Calculator] Fix issues with log functions and spaces (#47767)
## Summary of the Pull Request

The Calculator components in Command Palette and Run produced incorrect
results or errors for `log` and `ln` inputs where spaces exist between
the function name and the argument list. This is because input
validation allowed for those spaces, but this was not respected in the
log mapping code which transforms user input into a string for
consumption by the expression evaluator engine.

The result of this is discrepancy was that:

- Natural log would be called instead of log base 10 for `log (n)`.
- An error would be shown for `ln (n)`.

For example:
<img width="556" height="166" alt="image"

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The issue was with this code:


a650504640/src/modules/launcher/Plugins/Microsoft.PowerToys.Run.Plugin.Calculator/CalculateEngine.cs (L56-L58)

This maps user input such as `log(10)` or `ln(10)` to the functions the
back-end expression evaluator understands. For Mages and ExprTK, this is
mapped to `log10(n)` for base 10 logs or `log(n)` for natural logs.

Unfortunately, the input validator regex allows for spaces between the
function name and the start of the argument list, and the string replace
does not. When spaces exist:

- For `log (n)` - the log10 match is missed and the expression is
interpreted as a natural log, producing incorrect results.
- For `ln (n)` - the string is passed as-is to the back-end. Neither
Mages nor ExprTK recognise it, so an error is returned.

The fix is to replace the string replacement code with two regexes.
These are both forgiving of spaces between the function name and
argument list:

For log base 10: `"log(?![0-9])\\s*\\("`
For natural log: `"ln\\s*\\("`

Both are culture-agnostic and have `IgnoreCase` set. I took the
opportunity to remove the "en-US" culture from the
`DivisionByZeroRegex`, as it is not required.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Added unit tests which ensure the log and ln functions perform
identically with or without spaces. Confirmed all unit tests for Command
Palette and Run still pass.

Manually confirmed that `log` and `ln` now produce correct results in
both applications.

42ff04d4bc Fix uitest pipeline install dotnet10 sdk (#47852)
## Problem

The scheduled UI Test Automation pipeline
([Dart/161438](https://microsoft.visualstudio.com/Dart/_build?definitionId=161438))
has been failing daily since 2026-04-30 because PR #41280 (`.NET 10
Upgrade`) updated the main build template (`job-build-project.yml`) for
.NET 10 / VS 2026 but the parallel changes were missed in the UI Test
Automation templates.

Symptoms in recent runs (e.g. build
[#20260512.1](https://microsoft.visualstudio.com/Dart/_build/results?buildId=146803928)):

```
error NETSDK1045: The current .NET SDK does not support targeting .NET 10.0.
   Either target .NET 9.0 or lower, or use a version of the .NET SDK that supports .NET 10.0.
```

…emitted ×179 across every csproj during the *Restore solution-level
NuGet packages* step on both `Build UI Tests Only Release_x64` and
`…_arm64` jobs.

## Changes

This PR mirrors the two pipeline changes that PR #41280 already applied
to the main CI templates.

**1. Install the .NET 10 SDK on the build agent**
- File: `.pipelines/v2/templates/job-build-ui-tests.yml`
- Bump the pinned `steps-ensure-dotnet-version.yml` parameter from
`version: '9.0'` → `'10.0'`.
- Matches `job-build-project.yml`, which already installs the .NET 10
SDK alongside 6.0/8.0.

**2. Pin the build agent image to VS 2026 (MSBuild 18)**
- File: `.pipelines/v2/templates/pipeline-ui-tests-official-build.yml`
- Add `demands: ImageOverride -equals SHINE-VS18-Latest` to the agent
pool spec.
- The .NET 10 SDK (≥ 10.0.300) requires MSBuild 18, which only ships
with VS 2026. Without this demand, the SHINE pool selects a default
image with VS 2022 / MSBuild 17 and restore fails with `MSB4236: The SDK
'Microsoft.NET.Sdk' specified could not be found`.
- Mirrors the unconditional pattern in `pipeline-ci-build.yml` (lines
56–67), which applies the same demand across both `SHINE-INT-L` and
`SHINE-OSS-L` pools.

## Validation

Queued pipeline 161438 against this branch:

| Build | Commit | Result |
| --- | --- | --- |
|
[`146821554`](https://microsoft.visualstudio.com/Dart/_build/results?buildId=146821554)
| `4dd13b9` (SDK fix only) | `NETSDK1045` gone  — exposed VS 2022 /
MSBuild 17 mismatch |
|
[`146825355`](https://microsoft.visualstudio.com/Dart/_build/results?buildId=146825355)
| `97cadbb` (SDK + agent demand) | Both errors gone  — agent now
`Visual Studio\18\Enterprise\` |

After this PR, the pipeline reaches NuGet restore and now hits a
separate, **pre-existing** issue from the April 13–29 failure window:
`401 Unauthorized` on the `shine-oss/PowerToysPublicDependencies`
Artifacts feed for newly-released `Microsoft.NETCore.App.*/8.0.27`
packages. That requires feed-admin action (granting the Dart pipeline
build identity "save from upstream" on the feed, or pre-seeding those
package versions) and is **out of scope for this PR**.

3948fcc19d [release-notes skill] Use local agent for PR summaries; vendor prepare-release-assets.ps1 (#47651)
## Summary

Two related changes to the `release-note-generation` agent skill:

### 1. Step 3 reviews: use the local agent instead of
`mcp_github_request_copilot_review`

Step 3.1 previously instructed the agent to call
`mcp_github_request_copilot_review` for every milestone PR so that the
`CopilotSummary` column in `sorted_prs.csv` would be populated by the
GitHub-side Copilot bot.

When this skill is driven from a CLI / coding agent, that request comes
from a bot identity, and the GitHub API rejects it (`Bot reviewers
cannot be requested`). The PR ends up with no Copilot review and
`CopilotSummary` stays empty.

`references/step3-review-grouping.md` has been rewritten to instead have
**the local agent** that is running the skill perform the review itself:

- Fetch each PR's diff with a non-mutating tool
(`mcp_github_pull_request_read` `get_diff` / `get_files`, or `gh pr
diff`).
- Produce a 1-3 sentence user-facing summary in the same style as a
Copilot PR review.
- Write the summary directly into the `CopilotSummary` column of
`Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv`, preserving row order and
skipping rows that already have a non-empty summary.

Step 3.2 (re-run `dump-prs-since-commit.ps1`) is demoted to optional,
with a note that re-running the dump will overwrite the
locally-generated summaries.

`SKILL.md` was updated to match: front-matter description, "When to
Use", workflow diagram, the 3.1-3.3 row in the summary table,
prerequisites (no longer requires "GitHub Copilot code review enabled
for the org/repo"; mentions MCP for fetching diffs), and the
troubleshooting row for empty `CopilotSummary` now points at Step 3.1
with the bot-rejection caveat.

### 2. Vendor `prepare-release-assets.ps1` into the skill

Added `scripts/prepare-release-assets.ps1` -- previously kept in
OneDrive at `Tools/prepare-release.ps1`. Renamed because the script does
more than download installers: it also pulls per-arch symbol archives,
computes SHA256, and emits the **Installer Hashes** markdown table for
the GitHub release page. "Release assets" captures all of that.

Header `.SYNOPSIS` / `.DESCRIPTION` / `.EXAMPLE` blocks were updated to
reflect the new filename and the symbol-archive behavior (the original
synopsis only mentioned installers).

`SKILL.md` registers the new script in the "Available Scripts" table,
lists Azure CLI + the `azure-devops` extension as a prerequisite (only
when running this script), adds a "Prepare GitHub release assets" entry
to "When to Use", and adds a troubleshooting row for the most common
failure (`Failed to acquire ADO access token` -> `az login`).

## Files changed

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `.github/skills/release-note-generation/SKILL.md` | Updated
description, prerequisites, workflow, scripts table, troubleshooting |
|
`.github/skills/release-note-generation/references/step3-review-grouping.md`
| Rewritten to use local-agent review; demoted refresh step |
|
`.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/prepare-release-assets.ps1`
| New (vendored from OneDrive) |

## Validation

- PowerShell parser ([`Parser]::ParseFile`) reports no errors on the new
script.
- Documentation-only / scripts-only change -- no product code touched,
so the standard PowerToys build / test gates do not apply.
- The change preserves the existing CSV schema (`Id, Title, Labels,
Author, Url, Body, CopilotSummary, NeedThanks`), so downstream Step 3.3
(`group-prs-by-label.ps1`) and Step 4 summarization continue to work
without modification.

966c1db76a CmdPal Dock: Multi-monitor support (#46915)
This pull request introduces per-monitor dock customization support and
refactors how dock band settings are managed to enable independent
layouts on different monitors. The changes add a new
`DockMonitorConfigViewModel` for monitor-specific configuration, update
`DockViewModel` to handle per-monitor band lists and settings, and
refactor band movement and ordering logic to respect per-monitor
overrides.

**Per-monitor dock customization:**

* Added `DockMonitorConfigViewModel` to encapsulate the configuration
and state for each monitor, exposing properties for binding and
persisting changes using `ISettingsService`.
* Updated `DockViewModel` to track an optional `MonitorDeviceId`,
enabling docks to be associated with a specific monitor and to expose
per-monitor settings and methods.
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-b661a9311de64dd1123860e858f1f4963f05ccee06b5bd218916635495b2ff06L17-R33)

**Band management refactor for per-monitor settings:**

* Refactored band retrieval and update logic in `DockViewModel` to use
new helper methods (`GetActiveBands`, `WithActiveBands`) that select and
modify either global or per-monitor band lists as appropriate.
* Updated band movement and ordering methods (`SyncBandPosition`,
`MoveBandWithoutSaving`, `SaveBandOrder`) to operate on the correct band
lists for each monitor, ensuring that changes apply to the intended
scope (global or per-monitor).

**Resource management:**

* Implemented `IDisposable` on `DockViewModel` to clean up event
handlers and prevent resource leaks.

34cebb8285 [CmdPal][PerfMon] Use % Processor Time for system CPU dock (#47864)
## Summary of the Pull Request

The system-wide CPU counter in the Command Palette Performance monitor
used `% Processor Utility`, which is scaled by `% Processor Performance`
and is intentionally unbounded above 100% when cores boost above their
nominal base frequency. Under load this produced values like 144% in the
dock, as reported in #46381.

Switch to `% Processor Time` — the same counter Task Manager renders —
which is naturally bounded to 0-100%.

The per-process branch is unaffected; it already divides by
`Environment.ProcessorCount` and continues to use `% Processor Time`, so
individual process readings remain correct.

## PR Checklist

- [x] **Closes:** #46381
- [x] **Communication:** I've discussed this with the team/maintainers
via the linked issue.
- [x] **Tests:** Manually tested locally. Built
`Microsoft.CmdPal.Ext.PerformanceMonitor` and the full
`CommandPalette.slnf` (Debug|x64). Verified the built DLL contains `%
Processor Time` and no longer contains `% Processor Utility`.
- [x] **Manual tests:** Ran the rebuilt dev build under sustained CPU
load; the system CPU figure now stays bounded to 100%.
- [x] **Localization:** Not applicable — counter name is an OS API
string, not user-visible text.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

`% Processor Utility` is documented by Microsoft as deliberately
unbounded; it represents an "effective" utilization that accounts for
turbo/boost frequencies. It is well-suited for billing/capacity contexts
but not for a "% of CPU used" UI element where users expect a 0-100%
reading consistent with Task Manager and Resource Monitor.

`_procPerformance` (the `% Processor Performance` counter) is retained
because it is still used by `CpuSpeed` to compute the live frequency
display, so removing it would regress the speed readout.

### Before
System CPU dock showed values >100% under load (reported 144% in the
issue).

### After
System CPU dock is bounded to 0-100%, matching Task Manager.

ba68b88ca1 Fix ZoomIt Record hotkey ignoring Alt modifier when Alt is the only modifier key (#47388)
## Summary of the Pull Request

ZoomIt derives three recording hotkeys from one base key via XOR:
fullscreen (base), crop (base XOR Shift), window (base XOR Alt). When
Alt is the sole modifier, `base XOR Alt = 0`, registering a
modifier-less hotkey that captures every bare keypress (e.g., pressing
`5` triggers window recording).

**`Zoomit.cpp`** — 4 hotkey registration sites:
- Guard `RECORD_CROP_HOTKEY` registration behind `(g_RecordToggleMod ^
MOD_SHIFT) != 0`
- Guard `RECORD_WINDOW_HOTKEY` registration behind `(g_RecordToggleMod ^
MOD_ALT) != 0`

```cpp
// Before (all 4 sites):
registerHotkey( RECORD_CROP_HOTKEY, ( g_RecordToggleMod ^ MOD_SHIFT ) | MOD_NOREPEAT, ... );
registerHotkey( RECORD_WINDOW_HOTKEY, ( g_RecordToggleMod ^ MOD_ALT ) | MOD_NOREPEAT, ... );

// After:
if ( g_RecordToggleMod ^ MOD_SHIFT ) {
    registerHotkey( RECORD_CROP_HOTKEY, ( g_RecordToggleMod ^ MOD_SHIFT ) | MOD_NOREPEAT, ... );
}
if ( g_RecordToggleMod ^ MOD_ALT ) {
    registerHotkey( RECORD_WINDOW_HOTKEY, ( g_RecordToggleMod ^ MOD_ALT ) | MOD_NOREPEAT, ... );
}
```

**`ZoomItViewModel.cs`** — `RecordToggleKeyCrop` /
`RecordToggleKeyWindow` computed properties:
- Return `null` when the derived hotkey would have no modifier keys, so
the Settings UI omits the inapplicable shortcut description rather than
displaying a bare-key shortcut.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

ZoomIt registers crop and window recording variants by XOR-ing the base
modifier with `MOD_SHIFT` and `MOD_ALT` respectively. This design breaks
when the base modifier equals the XOR target — the result is `0`, and
`RegisterHotKey` with no modifiers intercepts every bare keypress of
that key system-wide.

The fix is symmetric across all 4 registration sites (standalone
`registerHotkey()` in `RegisterAllHotkeys`, the legacy dialog OK path,
and two `WM_CREATE`-adjacent paths): skip the derived hotkey
registration when the computed modifier is zero. The Settings UI
ViewModel mirrors this logic by returning `null` for the affected
computed properties, causing the converter to emit an empty string
instead of a modifier-less shortcut label.

## Validation Steps Performed

- Code review confirmed fix is applied consistently across all 4
`RegisterHotKey` call sites in `Zoomit.cpp`
- Verified `HotkeySettingsToLocalizedStringConverter` returns
`string.Empty` for `null` input — no display regression in Settings UI
- Confirmed the default `Ctrl+5` hotkey is unaffected (`MOD_CONTROL ^
MOD_ALT = MOD_CONTROL | MOD_ALT ≠ 0`)

3e60249326 FancyZones Editor: Add translator comments for "Space around zones" and "Highlight distance" (#47226)
Two FancyZones Editor strings have misleading Japanese translations due
to ambiguous English phrasing:

- **"Space around zones"** → 「ゾーン周りのスペース」 (generic space/room) — should
be 「ゾーン周りの余白」 (margin/padding)
- **"Highlight distance"** → 「距離を強調表示」 (distance to visually emphasize)
— should be 「隣接するゾーンの検知距離」 (detection distance for adjacent zones)

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Changes to `FancyZonesEditor/Properties/Resources.resx`:

- **`Distance_adjacent_zones`** — Rewrote existing comment to explicitly
state this is a *detection/snapping proximity distance* (px at which a
nearby zone activates), not a visual-emphasis concept. Prevents
translators from reaching for 強調表示 ("visually highlight/emphasize").
- **`Space_Around_Zones`** — Added comment clarifying this is
*padding/margin* (empty gap in pixels) between zones, not a generic
space/area. Guides translators toward 余白 over スペース.
- **`Show_Space_Zones`** — Added comment clarifying this is a toggle for
enabling/disabling the padding display.

<data name="Distance_adjacent_zones" xml:space="preserve">
  <value>Highlight distance</value>
  <comment>The pixel distance at which an adjacent zone highlights (lights up) when a window is dragged near it. This is about detection/snapping range proximity, not about making something visually stand out.</comment>
</data>

<data name="Space_Around_Zones" xml:space="preserve">
  <value>Space around zones</value>
  <comment>The size (in pixels) of the padding or margin (empty gap) surrounding each zone. This is about blank space/whitespace between zones, not an area or region.</comment>
</data>
```

## Validation Steps Performed

Verified `Resources.resx` is well-formed XML and that the modified
entries render correctly in the resource file. No runtime behavior is
changed — comments are translator-only metadata consumed by the
Touchdown Build localization pipeline.

af1c0a313c Fix Korean mistranslation of "Activation modifier key" in Grab And Move settings (#47352)
The Korean translation of "Activation modifier key"
(`GrabAndMove_ModifierKey.Header`) was rendered as "정품인증 보조키" ("product
authentication/genuine certification modifier key") — conflating feature
activation with Windows product licensing. The correct translation is
"활성화 보조 키".

## Change

- **`src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/Strings/en-us/Resources.resw`**:
Expanded the `<comment>` on `GrabAndMove_ModifierKey.Header` to
explicitly disambiguate "Activation" for translators:

```xml
<comment>Drop-down to choose which modifier key (Alt or Win) activates Grab And Move drag and resize.
"Activation" here means to enable/trigger the feature (활성화 in Korean),
NOT product authentication/genuine certification (정품인증 in Korean).</comment>
```

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

The word "Activation" is ambiguous in Korean: it can refer to Windows
product license activation (정품인증) or feature enablement (활성화). The
localization pipeline picked the wrong interpretation. Adding an
explicit in-source comment with both the correct and incorrect Korean
terms guides the translation tooling and human reviewers to use "활성화 보조
키" going forward.

## Validation Steps Performed

- Verified the updated comment appears correctly in the `.resw` file.
- No runtime behavior changes; comment-only modification to the resource
file.

3b76597981 Power Display: Add "do not translate" comments to all product name references (#47351)
The German locale translated the system tray tooltip `AppName` ("Power
Display") to "Leistungsanzeige", despite the Settings UI keeping the
utility name untranslated. The affected resource entries had no
translator guidance, so "Power Display" was treated as a localizable
phrase rather than a fixed product name. This PR adds consistent "do not
translate" comments across all touchpoints in both resource files.

## Summary of the Pull Request

- `src/modules/powerdisplay/PowerDisplay/Strings/en-us/Resources.resw`:
Added `Product name, do not translate.` comment to the `AppName` entry
(system tray tooltip)
- `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/Strings/en-us/Resources.resw`: Added
`{Locked="Power Display"}` comments to all 15 entries containing "Power
Display" — including the module title, enable/toggle/open/launch
strings, OOBE title/description/activation text, LearnMore link,
QuickProfiles description, group header, and flyout header — following
the same convention already used for FancyZones and other product names
in that file

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

The system tray tooltip is populated via `GetString("AppName")` in
`TrayIconService.cs`. Because the resource had no comment, translators
localized "Power Display" as a common phrase ("performance display")
rather than treating it as a fixed product name.

To ensure consistency across all touchpoints, `{Locked="Power Display"}`
comments have been added to every entry in the Settings UI resource file
that contains the product name, matching the convention already in use
for `Shell_PowerDisplay.Content` (`Product name: Navigation view item
name for Power Display`) and for other utilities such as FancyZones
(`{Locked="FancyZones"}`).

## Validation Steps Performed

Verified that all `AppName` and Settings UI resource entries containing
"Power Display" now carry the appropriate translator comment. No runtime
behavior changes — the English values are unchanged; the comments solely
guide translators to leave the product name as-is in all locales.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Quick Access flyout (`Settings.UI.Controls`)

- **`QuickAccessViewModel`**: Added `MouseWithoutBorders` to
`InitializeItems()`; tooltip shows the configured `ReconnectShortcut`.
- **`QuickAccessLauncher`**: Added `case ModuleType.MouseWithoutBorders`
— signals `MWBReconnectEvent` (same named Windows event used by the
CmdPal `MWBReconnectCommand`).

### Settings Dashboard (`Settings.UI`)

- **`DashboardViewModel`**: Added `GetModuleItemsMouseWithoutBorders()`
returning a `DashboardModuleButtonItem` wired to a new
`MouseWithoutBordersReconnectClicked` handler that fires
`MWBReconnectEvent`. Added the module to the `GetModuleItems()` switch.
Added `using System.Threading` and `using PowerToys.Interop`.

No new strings — reuses existing
`MouseWithoutBorders_ReconnectButton.Text` ("Refresh connections") and
`MouseWithoutBorders_ReconnectTooltip.Text` for the button label and
description.

## Validation Steps Performed

- Verified `MWBReconnectEvent` is the same event used by
`MWBReconnectCommand` in the CmdPal extension.
- Confirmed `MouseWithoutBorders.png` icon exists in
`Assets/Settings/Icons/`.
- Confirmed `PowerToys.Interop` is already referenced by
`PowerToys.Settings.csproj`.

be1f9dd2d8 Add auto-label-product GitHub Action for issue triage (#47485)
## Summary

Adds a GitHub Action workflow that **automatically applies `Product-*`
labels** to issues, reducing manual triage effort.

### How it works

**Two-tier approach:**
1. **Deterministic mapping** — Parses the structured "Area(s) with
issue?" dropdown from bug report templates and maps selections to the
correct `Product-` label via a hardcoded lookup table.
2. **AI inference (Copilot fallback)** — When no product is resolved
from the structured field (e.g., feature requests without the area
field), calls GitHub Models API (`gpt-4.1-mini`) to infer the product
from issue title + body.

### Trigger modes

| Trigger | Use case |
|---------|----------|
| `issues: [opened]` | Auto-labels every new issue |
| `workflow_dispatch` (single) | Test on one specific issue with dry-run
|
| `workflow_dispatch` (batch) | Process all open issues missing Product-
labels |

### Safety features
- **Label validation** — checks each label exists in the repo before
applying
- **Dry-run mode** — logs what would happen without modifying issues
- **Concurrency control** — prevents duplicate runs
- **Conservative AI prompt** — only labels products the issue is
*primarily* about

### Testing performed

Tested locally against 10 real issues with `Needs-Triage` and no
`Product-*` label:
- **6/10 resolved deterministically** (correct labels applied via `gh
issue edit`)
- **4/10 tested AI inference** via GitHub Models API:
  - #47482 (CmdPal Dock) → `Product-Command Palette` 
  - #47474 (grab and move + fancy zones) → `Product-FancyZones` 
  - #47476 (modular download) → `[]` (correctly abstained) 
- #47478 (Quick Access pinning) → improved prompt to avoid over-labeling

### Files changed

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `.github/workflows/auto-label-product.yml` | The GitHub Action |
| `.github/policies/resourceManagement.yml` | Removed redundant
Workspaces-only regex rule |
| `tools/Test-AutoLabelProduct.ps1` | Local PowerShell test script for
dry-run testing |

### Mapping validated against actual repo labels
Confirmed all label names in the mapping exist in the repo via `gh label
list --search "Product-"`.

14f2ac1b78 Add AI-powered recurring workflow to auto-label new issues by area (#47808)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Adds a GitHub Actions workflow that fires on every new/reopened issue
and uses `gpt-4o-mini` (via GitHub Models) to classify the issue and
apply the correct `Product-*` / `Area-*` label(s) automatically. Also
adds a `workflow_dispatch` path so maintainers can manually backfill
labels on existing untriaged issues by supplying a comma-separated list
of issue numbers.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

**New file:** `.github/workflows/auto-label-issues.yml`

- **Trigger:** `issues: [opened, reopened]` for the automatic path;
`workflow_dispatch` with an `issue_numbers` input (comma-separated) for
manual backfill
- **Model call:** issue title + body (≤4 000 chars) → `gpt-4o-mini` at
the GitHub Models inference endpoint (`models.inference.ai.azure.com`);
uses `GITHUB_TOKEN` — no extra secrets required; `temperature: 0` for
deterministic output
- **Safety:** model output is filtered through a hard-coded allow-list
of 37 `Product-*` / `Area-*` labels before any API call — hallucinated
labels are dropped silently
- **Permissions:** `models: read` + `issues: write` only (same
minimal-permission pattern as the existing dedup workflow)
- **Concurrency:** per-issue group for automatic events; per-run-ID for
manual dispatch — prevents races without blocking unrelated runs

## Validation Steps Performed

- Manually triggered via `workflow_dispatch` against several untriaged
issues; step logs confirmed correct JSON output from the model and
matching labels applied via the GitHub Issues API.
- Verified the allow-list filter correctly discards any label not in the
predefined set.

3796b244e5 [PowerDisplay] Pre-classify internal/external displays at discovery (#47740)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

Adds an explicit Phase 0 classification step in `MonitorManager` that
uses `DISPLAYCONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY` (from `QueryDisplayConfig`)
to label every connected display as **internal** (built-in) or
**external** before any controller runs. Each controller is then
dispatched a strictly-scoped target list:
- **WMI controller** → only internal displays
- **DDC/CI controller** → only external displays

Two practical wins:
1. **Performance** — DDC/CI's ~4-second I2C capabilities probe (per
monitor) is now skipped entirely for internal laptop panels, which never
respond to DDC/CI in the first place. On a typical laptop with one
built-in panel + one external monitor, discovery is noticeably faster.
2. **Layering** — `WmiController` no longer reaches into the
`Drivers/DDC/` namespace to call
`DdcCiNative.GetAllMonitorDisplayInfo()`. Both controllers receive their
input from `MonitorManager` via a single `QueryDisplayConfig` call.

Strict classification is enforced: a display classified as internal but
not returned by `WmiMonitorBrightness` is dropped + logged (Warning),
with **no fallback to DDC/CI**. This is a deliberate design choice — the
spec discusses the trade-off in detail.

Adds a Phase 0 classification log (Info level) so misclassifications are
diagnosable from logs alone:
```
[DisplayClassification] Found 2 displays:
  [Path 1] \\.\DISPLAY1 / "Built-in display": OutputTechnology=0x80000000 → Internal
  [Path 2] \\.\DISPLAY2 / "Dell U2723QE": OutputTechnology=10 → External
[DisplayClassification] Summary: 1 internal, 1 external
```

The classification rule (in `DisplayClassifier.IsInternal`) is
deliberately conservative — misclassifying an external display as
internal would silently drop it from DDC/CI discovery with no fallback,
so we err on the side of external:
- **Internal**: the bare `INTERNAL` flag (`0x80000000`) alone, the
`INTERNAL` flag combined with a documented embedded subtype
(`DISPLAYPORT_EMBEDDED` 11 or `UDI_EMBEDDED` 13), or one of those
embedded subtypes on its own
- **External**: everything else, including the `INTERNAL` flag combined
with an undocumented subtype (HDMI, DP_EXTERNAL, MIRACAST, etc.)
- LVDS (6) is intentionally **not** classified internal — the [Microsoft
docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/wingdi/ne-wingdi-displayconfig_video_output_technology)
describe it only as a connector type, not as an internal-display marker

df41e322d1 README: fix broken Roadmap reference link for v0.100 (#47785)
## Summary of the Pull Request

The Roadmap entry in `README.md` used a reference-style link
(`[v0.100][github-next-release-work]`) without a matching reference
definition, causing it to render as plain text. This change restores the
missing definition so the roadmap item renders as a clickable link.

0e766bcafa [PowerDisplay] Debounced + wheel-scrollable brightness/contrast/volume sliders (#47756)
## Summary of the Pull Request

The brightness / contrast / volume sliders in the PowerDisplay flyout
previously committed to hardware (DDC/CI) only on `PointerCaptureLost`
plus arrow-key `KeyUp`. That doesn't work reliably on touchscreens —
tap-on-track issues no pointer capture, and the Slider / Thumb doesn't
always bubble `PointerCaptureLost` on touch — so the value the user
dialed in never reached the monitor.

This PR replaces that wiring with the simpler approach we actually
wanted: a TwoWay `Value` binding plus a debounced commit in the
view-model. `ValueChanged` runs the setter on every move, but a 200 ms
`DispatcherQueueTimer` (restarted on each change) collapses the entire
interaction into a single DDC/CI write once the user stops sliding.
Mouse, touch, tap-on-track, and held arrow keys all use the same code
path.

It also adds a small `SliderExtensions` helper (Toolkit-style attached
properties) so the brightness / contrast / volume sliders can be
adjusted by mouse-wheel scroll. The wheel event is marked handled so the
parent `ScrollViewer` does not also scroll, and the existing 200 ms
debounce coalesces wheel input into a single DDC/CI write.

## PR Checklist

- [x] Closes: #47724
- [x] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors
already.
- [x] **Tests:** Manual smoke; no automated coverage exists for the
slider flyout.
- [x] **Localization:** No new end-user-facing strings.
- [x] **Dev docs:** N/A
- [x] **New binaries:** N/A
- [x] **Documentation updated:** N/A

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Debounced commit

- `MonitorViewModel.Brightness/Contrast/Volume` setters now: assign
field → `OnPropertyChanged()` → `ScheduleCommit(...)` which (re)starts a
per-metric `DispatcherQueueTimer`. On `Tick` the closure calls
`SetBrightnessAsync(_brightness)` (etc.), reading the latest field value
so intermediate drag values are coalesced into one hardware write.
- `SetBrightnessAsync` / `SetContrastAsync` / `SetVolumeAsync` (used by
hotkeys, profile load, hardware refresh) keep their immediate-apply
behavior — they bypass the public setters, so a TwoWay source-update
from one of those paths does **not** reschedule a commit.
- `MonitorViewModel.Dispose()` stops the three timers. Pending writes
are intentionally dropped: `Dispose` only runs when the monitor is gone
(unplug / refresh) or the app is shutting down, in which case a hardware
write would race a half-torn-down `MonitorManager`.
- `AppConstants.UI.SliderCommitDebounceMs = 200` is the single source of
truth for the delay.
- Removed the six
`Handle{Brightness|Contrast|Volume}{PointerCaptureLost|KeyUp}` methods
and the now-unused `IsArrowKey` helper.
- `using DispatcherQueueTimer =
Microsoft.UI.Dispatching.DispatcherQueueTimer;` alias avoids ambiguity
with `Windows.System.DispatcherQueueTimer`.

### Wheel-scrollable sliders

- New `PowerDisplay.Helpers.SliderExtensions` — a Toolkit-style `public
static class <Control>Extensions` with two attached properties:
- `SliderExtensions.IsMouseWheelEnabled` (bool) — opt in to wheel input.
- `SliderExtensions.MouseWheelChange` (double, default `NaN` → falls
back to the slider's own `Slider.SmallChange`) — per-notch delta.
- Handler computes `notches = MouseWheelDelta / 120`, clamps to
`[Minimum, Maximum]`, sets `Value`, and marks `e.Handled = true` so the
enclosing `MainScrollViewer` doesn't also scroll.
- Wired on the brightness, contrast, and volume sliders with
`MouseWheelChange="5"` (20 notches for a full sweep).
- Body has zero PowerDisplay-specific dependencies (only
`Microsoft.UI.Xaml.*`) so the helper is straightforward to lift into the
WinUI Community Toolkit later.

## Validation Steps Performed

- `tools/build/build.cmd` against
`src/modules/powerdisplay/PowerDisplay/PowerDisplay.csproj` — exit code
0.
- Manual smoke on a touchscreen device:
  - Touch drag thumb 50 → 80, lift finger → monitor commits once at 80.
  - Tap on the track at 25 % → monitor commits once at 25 %.
- Manual smoke with mouse:
  - Drag 50 → 80, release → exactly one DDC/CI write at 80.
- Manual smoke with keyboard:
- Hold Right arrow on the brightness slider → repeated nudges collapse
into a single write 200 ms after key release.
- Manual smoke with mouse wheel:
- Hover brightness slider, scroll wheel → value moves by 5 per notch,
monitor commits once after scrolling stops.
- Wheel over a slider does **not** scroll the flyout's
`MainScrollViewer`; wheel outside the sliders still scrolls.
  - Wheel past `Minimum` / `Maximum` clamps at the boundary.
- Hotkey-driven brightness change still applies immediately (regression
check on the `SetBrightnessAsync` path).
- `DisplayChangeWatcher`-driven hardware refresh does not schedule a
spurious commit.

3d96d52564 [PowerDisplay] Fix brightness/contrast/volume on monitors with native max != 100 (#47679)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

Fixes #47458 — on monitors that advertise a non-100 raw VCP maximum
(e.g. Samsung S27DG602SN reports 50), the DDC controller was writing the
slider's 0–100 percentage directly as the raw VCP value. Anything above
the device's max was silently clamped, so only the bottom half of the
brightness / contrast / volume sliders had any visible effect.

The same root cause affects all three continuous-range VCPs (0x10
brightness, 0x12 contrast, 0x62 volume).

- Capture the device-reported `max` at discovery into new
  `Monitor.{Brightness,Contrast,Volume}VcpMax` fields.
- Add `VcpFeatureValue.FromPercentage(percent, max, min)` as the
  symmetric inverse of the existing `ToPercentage()`.
- Scale percent → raw inside `DdcCiController.Set{Brightness,Contrast,
  Volume}Async` before each `SetVCPFeature` call.
- WMI is unaffected — Windows already standardises WMI brightness to
  0–100.

The whole stack above the controller (ViewModel, MonitorManager, slider,
settings persistence, IPC) stays in the percent domain. The only place
percent ↔ raw conversion happens is the controller boundary.

95b70555bb [PowerDisplay] Stable monitor Id + survive transient discovery failures (#47712)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

Fixes #47665 — users report the per-monitor "Show input source control"
/ "Show power state control" toggles silently revert to off over time.
Three independent log captures pin the root cause to two layers in
`MainViewModel`:

- **Data-loss layer**: `SaveMonitorsToSettings` rebuilds
`settings.Properties.Monitors` from the currently-discovered list and
only re-adds entries with `IsHidden=true`. Whenever monitor discovery
transiently fails (DDC `GetPhysicalMonitors` NULL handle, DDC `empty
capabilities string`, WMI 4200 — all common in production logs),
affected monitors get **deleted** from settings.json. Next successful
discovery initialises them with the post-#47303 defaults
(`EnableInputSource=false`, `EnableColorTemperature=false`,
`EnablePowerState=false`), and `ApplyPreservedUserSettings` cannot
recover what is no longer there.
- **Identity layer**: `Monitor.Id` is
`{Source}_{EdidId}_{MonitorNumber}` — `EdidId` is not unique for
identical-model monitors, and `MonitorNumber` is OS-assigned and changes
after sleep/wake / GPU reset / display reorder. Even fixing the
data-loss layer would still apply preserved settings to the wrong
physical monitor for users with multiple identical displays.

This PR addresses both layers:
- **30-day retention** — `MonitorSettingsRebuilder` (in
`PowerDisplay.Lib`) replaces the inline `IsHidden`-only loop.
Currently-discovered monitors get a fresh `LastSeenUtc` stamp;
missing-but-recent (< 30 days) entries are preserved with all `Enable*`
flags intact; missing-and-stale entries are dropped with a single info
log. `IsHidden=true` entries are still preserved unconditionally.
- **DevicePath-based Id** — `Monitor.Id` is now the Windows `DevicePath`
minus the trailing device-class GUID (e.g.
`\\?\DISPLAY#DELD1A8#5&abc&0&UID12345`). The middle PnP-instance segment
is unique per (physical device × physical port) and stable across
reboots, sleep/wake, and OS-level reordering —
`MonitorDisplayInfo.DevicePath` already carries this value from
`QueryDisplayConfig`; it just wasn't being used as the Id.

The order of commits keeps the app behaviourally identical to today
through the first 8 commits (only adds dormant helpers / fields /
wiring); the actual ID-format flip is the very last commit.
Bisect-friendly.

f0c9a17fd1 [GPO]Bump en-US ADML revision to 1.20 to match ADMX (fixes #47645) (#47672)
## Summary

Fixes #47645.

The ADMX policy definition (`src/gpo/assets/PowerToys.admx`) declares
`revision="1.20"` and `<resources minRequiredRevision="1.20"/>`, but the
en-US ADML language resource (`src/gpo/assets/en-US/PowerToys.adml`) was
still at `revision="1.19"`. Group Policy Editor refuses to load the
PowerToys template because the language resource does not meet the
minimum required revision, producing the error reported in the issue.

## Change

Bump `revision` on the `policyDefinitionResources` root element of
`PowerToys.adml` from `1.19` to `1.20` so it matches the ADMX
`minRequiredRevision`.

## Validation

- Diffed against `src/gpo/assets/PowerToys.admx` to confirm the
revisions now align (both `1.20`).
- Documentation/asset-only change; no code build required.

## PR Checklist

- [x] Closes #47645
- [x] Tests added/passed — N/A (asset-only revision bump)
- [x] Requires documentation to be updated — No
- [x] I know how to test these changes — Open `gpedit.msc` and confirm
PowerToys policies load without the resource-version error.

a2892cd993 [ZoomIt] Remove stale WIL package import from ZoomItBreak.vcxproj (#47649)
## Summary of the Pull Request
ZoomItBreak.vcxproj contained a leftover Import of
Microsoft.Windows.ImplementationLibrary.targets pinned to version
1.0.231216.1, plus the matching EnsureNuGetPackageBuildImports guard.
The project has no packages.config and its source files
(BreakTimer.cpp/.h, ZoomItBreakScr.cpp) include no wil headers, so the
import was dead code copy-pasted from ZoomIt.vcxproj when the
screensaver project was introduced in #46506.

Until PR #41280 (.NET 10 upgrade), the sibling ZoomIt project restored
WIL 1.0.231216.1 via its own packages.config, so the folder
coincidentally existed and the stale Import silently succeeded. PR
#41280 bumped that dependency to 1.0.260126.7, leaving nothing in the
repo that requests the old version. NuGet no longer creates the
1.0.231216.1 folder, the EnsureNuGetPackage target fires, and the
official build fails with:

  ZoomItBreak.vcxproj(227,5): Error : This project references
  NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer ...
  Microsoft.Windows.ImplementationLibrary.1.0.231216.1\...targets

Fix: drop the unused import and guard target. Verified by clean rebuild
of x64 Release and ARM64 Release; ZoomItBreak64.scr / ZoomItBreak64a.scr
produced with empty error logs.

1744bdecd8 build: discover VS 2026 Insiders and exclude BuildTools in vswhere lookup (#47462)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Fixes `tools\build\build-common.ps1` so a clean
`tools\build\build-essentials.cmd` (or `build.ps1`) run discovers and
uses **Visual Studio 2026 Insiders** without any manual
`Enter-VsDevShell` preamble. Today the script lands on the first VS 2022
BuildTools instance it finds (which lacks the C++ workload) and every
native `.vcxproj` errors with `MSB4086: $(PlatformToolsetVersion)
evaluates to ""` during NuGet restore.

Two scoped commits, **only `tools\build\build-common.ps1` is touched**
(+58 / −36 net).

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### What''s broken

`build-common.ps1`''s `vswhere` lookup runs **without `-prerelease`**,
so VS 2026 Insiders / Preview installs are invisible to it. The explicit
fallback path list also only contains VS 2022 entries. On a machine that
has VS 2022 BuildTools (typical for CI hosts and many dev boxes) but
only has VS 2026 in *Insiders* form, the script:

1. Picks `C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual
Studio\2022\BuildTools` because it''s a candidate `vswhere` returned and
it''s in the fallback list.
2. Enters its DevShell — but BuildTools has no C++ workload installed,
so `$(VCToolsInstallDir)` and `$(PlatformToolsetVersion)` are unset.
3. NuGet restore over `PowerToys.slnx` fans out to every `.vcxproj` and
they each hit `Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.targets(401,15): error MSB4086: A
numeric comparison was attempted on "$(PlatformToolsetVersion)" that
evaluates to "" instead of a number, in condition
"''$(PlatformToolsetVersion)''<''120''".` The build dies before any
project compiles.

This was reproduced today against `origin/main` — confirming this is a
pre-existing breakage independent of any in-flight feature work.

### What this PR changes

Commit **`30acf72c` — Fix build scripts to discover VS 2026 / Insiders
installations**
- Adds `-prerelease` to `vswhere` calls, tried **before** the stable
lookup so prerelease VS is preferred when it''s the only one with a
working C++ workload.
- Adds VS 2026 year-name and internal-version (`18\Insiders`) paths to
the explicit fallback list.
- Keeps VS 2022 paths as the final fallback so existing setups keep
working.
- Priority order: `prerelease+VC tools` → `prerelease` → `stable+VC
tools` → `stable`.

Commit **`18b27209` — build: simplify VS environment initialization with
VS2022/VS2026 support**
- Adds `-prerelease` to `vswhere` (consolidates with the above; the
prerelease query subsumes the stable one now).
- Restricts the SKU query to `Community` / `Professional` / `Enterprise`
(explicitly excludes `BuildTools`) so the script can no longer
accidentally pick a SKU without the C++ workload.
- Reduces vswhere from **4 calls to 2**.
- Removes the destructive BuildTools env-var cleanup block (no longer
needed once vswhere refuses to return BuildTools in the first place).
- Adds `VsDevCmd.bat` exit-code validation so a partial DevShell init
fails loudly instead of silently producing a half-initialized
environment.
- Adds VS 2022 / VS 2026 Preview entries to the explicit fallback list.

### Why two commits instead of a squash

The first commit is the minimum-viable fix that addresses the reported
MSB4086 failure. The second commit is a follow-up cleanup that''s only
safe **once** prerelease is preferred and BuildTools is excluded.
Splitting them keeps each commit independently revert-able if a
regression shows up on a specific dev environment shape.

## Validation Steps Performed

| Step | Result |
|---|---|
| Reproduce on `main`: cold `tools\build\build-essentials.cmd` in a
non-DevShell PowerShell | **MSB4086** on
`Microsoft.CommandPalette.Extensions.vcxproj`,
`Microsoft.Terminal.UI.vcxproj`, `PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`,
`PowerRenameUI.vcxproj` — confirmed broken |
| With this branch checked out: same cold `build-essentials.cmd`
invocation | `[VS] vswhere found: ... C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft
Visual Studio\Installer\vswhere.exe` → `[VS] Checking candidate:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\18\Insiders` → `[VS] Entered
Visual Studio DevShell at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\18\Insiders` — VS 2026 Insiders selected directly, restore step
proceeds past the MSB4086 wall |
| Manual workaround pre-init via `Import-Module
Microsoft.VisualStudio.DevShell.dll` + `Enter-VsDevShell` | Now
**unnecessary** — the script self-initializes correctly |

After this fix, the next failure mode the build hits is unrelated NuGet
feed coverage for in-flight WinAppSDK upgrade work, which is the gated
dependency this PR was extracted from to keep this change atomic.

cd15686416 ci: disable building of draft pull requests (#47442)
The influx of Copilot-originated pull requests has made it impossible
for our CI to keep up; this is in part because for some reason Copilot
is treated as a team member and therefore automatically scheduled for CI
on the build pool.
