+## Portable utilities
+
+The tray menu's **Utilities** submenu lists `.exe` files in a `tools` folder beside
+`KSwitcher.exe`, sorted by filename. For example, place `StayHere.exe` at
+`tools/StayHere.exe` and choose **Utilities → StayHere** to launch it manually.
+The folder is rescanned whenever the menu opens; no configuration or restart is needed.
+Only files directly in `tools` are listed (not subfolders, shortcuts, or KSwitcher's
+own executables beside the main program). Utilities start with `tools` as their working
+directory and are never started automatically. Their lifetime is independent of KSwitcher.
+An absent or empty folder displays a disabled placeholder; launch errors are reported.
+From v0.6.45, the release includes `tools/README.txt`, so extracting the ZIP or
+installing an update creates the folder. Add your own trusted portable executables;
+StayHere is bundled from v0.6.46, and settings synchronization does not transfer
+utility files. Updates preserve personal utilities and refresh bundled StayHere and
+documentation. Repository development scripts
+are not included in the portable tools folder.
+
+Choose **Utilities → StayHere** to start the bundled activity utility. It starts
+enabled; left-click its tray icon to pause/resume or right-click for Exit. While
+enabled it prevents automatic sleep and, after three minutes without input, sends
+F15 on its 15-second check. It does not move the mouse, bypass locking, start with
+KSwitcher automatically, or directly control Teams status. Locked/disconnected
+sessions do not receive simulated activity. See `tools/StayHere-README.md`.

 Image thumbnails are decoded in **KSwitcher.Screenshot.exe**, returning only bounded preview pixels. Image clipboard backup/restore also uses that helper and encrypted temporary files, with clipboard-sequence checks before restoring. Selection reads avoid loading image formats. Keep all three executables together; no fourth executable is required. Paste allows a brief foreground handoff after history closes while preserving cancellation checks. UI Automation remains in the resident.

 # Latest Windows release

+## v0.6.46 — 2026-11-05

 ## Changes
- Respect downstream keyboard-hook suppression before tracking input or starting snippets. This prevents source-side expansion of keys forwarded by Mouse Without Borders. Update KSwitcher on both computers, especially the keyboard-sharing source.
- Verify snippet selection and pasted text through accessibility even with logging disabled. Unavailable verification, incorrect text or clipboard changes cancel further cursor/Enter actions. No snippet syntax, shortcut or default changed.
- Accept identical clipboard relays only after observing target-owned content, preserving text and editor selection metadata checks. Unicode allocation padding and format order do not cause false mismatches; changed content remains rejected.
- Retry clipboard snapshots interrupted by concurrent publication up to three times before selection, while input context remains unchanged.
- Clicking a warning notification opens Logs. Copy rejection diagnostics include observed/current text, clipboard sequences and the sentinel for troubleshooting.
+- Bundle **tools/StayHere.exe** and **tools/StayHere-README.md**. Start the activity utility from **Utilities → StayHere**; it does not start automatically with KSwitcher.
+- StayHere starts enabled. Left-click its tray icon to pause/resume or right-click for Exit. While enabled, it prevents automatic display/system sleep and checks inactivity every 15 seconds; after three minutes without input it sends F15. It does not move the mouse, bypass locking, install autostart or directly control Teams presence. Locked/disconnected sessions receive no simulated activity.
+- Include StayHere source and reproducible GCC/CMake builds. CLI status/pause/resume/exit parsing tolerates launcher whitespace. Normal updates replace bundled StayHere and documentation while preserving personal utilities. A running old instance continues until exited; relaunch to use the updated executable.
+- Retain all v0.6.45 Far snippet, Utilities and tools-folder changes and the v0.6.44 newest-history-selection fix.
+- Correct the Far test fixture's working directory: a long temporary path could scroll the command line and invalidate absolute cursor-coordinate assertions. Application snippet behavior is unchanged in this release.

 ## Validation
-Release regression checks cover dictionary equivalence (140,939 words), 105 sync checks, 319 native checks, 569 input checks, screenshot UI/save/registration, 48 updater checks and updater progress UI. The isolated snippet suite exercises an actual downstream forwarding hook, verifies no source-side copy or text changes, and checks normal expansion, Enter, buffered typing, copy retries and suppression of Enter after incorrect pasted text.
-
-Live two-computer validation with both instances updated remains outstanding. An older instance on either computer can still interfere; the fix does not accept unrelated clipboard contents.
+Passed isolated StayHere start/status/pause/resume/exit checks, Utilities regressions, dictionary equivalence (140,939 words), 105 sync checks, shared wheel tests, 319 native checks, 574 input checks, screenshot UI/save/registration, 54 updater checks and updater progress UI. The updater replaced a running isolated StayHere executable successfully. Final package manifests and downloaded assets are checked before completion. Real-Far spot checks confirmed expansion, caret placement and markers; the uninterrupted full interactive run remains outstanding because unrelated foreground changes cancel it. No additional Far application-code change is shipped in v0.6.46.

 ## Upgrade
-Choose **Update** in the tray menu on both computers. Legacy v0.3.0–v0.4.1 clients first receive the v0.4.2 compatibility bridge, then the current full release. v0.2.3 and earlier require manual installation.
-For manual installation, exit KSwitcher, close its configurator and screenshot editors, and extract the entire ZIP into its installation folder. Keep personal `data/` and customized dictionaries.

+# StayHere
+
+Маленька портативна утиліта для Windows, без .NET та інсталяції.
+
+У KSwitcher v0.6.46 і новіших виберіть **Utilities → StayHere** у меню трея
+або запустіть `tools/StayHere.exe` поруч із KSwitcher.exe.
+Зелена крапка в треї означає, що підтримка активності ввімкнена.
+Клацання лівою кнопкою перемикає режим; правою — відкриває меню з перемикачем і виходом.
+Після кожного запуску режим увімкнений. Автозапуск не додається.
+
+Раз на 15 секунд перевіряється час бездіяльності. Після 3 хвилин без вводу
+надсилається натискання й відпускання F15. Поки ви працюєте, клавіші не надсилаються.
+Курсор миші не рухається. Увімкнений режим також утримує екран і систему від
+автоматичного сну. На заблокованому екрані та у відключеному сеансі активність
+не імітується. Ручне блокування Windows не обходиться.
+
+Механізм перенесено за поведінкою з Typlo. Він підтримує системну активність,
+але не керує статусом Teams через API: статус залежить також від Teams,
+календаря, інших пристроїв та політик організації. F15 може мати власне
+призначення в окремих програмах. На підвищених вікнах Windows може блокувати ввід;
+тоді підказка іконки показує помилку. Утиліта не запитує права адміністратора.
+
+## Збірка
+
+У репозиторії KSwitcher виконайте `./build.ps1 -Stage` з кореня проєкту.
+Утиліта збирається з `utilities/StayHere/main.cpp` у `build/staged/tools/StayHere.exe`
+і включається пакувальником у реліз. CMake також має ціль `StayHere`.
+Для запуску достатньо одного `StayHere.exe`; .NET не потрібний.
+
+CLI: `--pause`, `--resume`, `--exit` керують запущеним екземпляром.
+`--status` повертає код 1 для активного режиму, 2 для паузи, 3 якщо утиліта не запущена.
