 ## Implemented
 
+### Chat language profiles — v0.6.48
+
+Settings separates General, Languages, Shortcuts, Clipboard and Tools into native tabs.
+Switching tabs preserves edits; Save, Cancel, Import and Export stay available below every page.
+
+Open the desired chat in Telegram Desktop or Microsoft Teams, then open Settings → Languages →
+**Languages for a chat…**. Select the chat and click the languages to include. Choose
+**Use languages**, then **Save** in Settings. The subset order is saved from the main
+layout list when editing the profile; one-language profiles are supported. **Remove profile** restores default behavior.
+
+For a matching chat, **Alt+Shift**, **Win+Space** (and reverse **Win+Shift+Space**) cycle
+through that subset. KSwitcher's **Next layout** conversion uses the same subset.
+Explicit KSwitcher hotkey bindings take precedence. Without a matching profile,
+Windows shortcuts keep their normal behavior and Next layout uses the global cycle.
+Unavailable layouts are skipped; if none remain installed, the global cycle is used.
+Direct layout shortcuts are unchanged. Profiles do not change Windows' installed languages.
+
+Matching uses the application and visible chat name, not a unique account/contact ID.
+Identically named chats in one application share a profile; renamed chats need a new
+profile. Telegram unread counters are ignored. Teams currently recognizes the desktop
+`Chat | name | Microsoft Teams` title format; other Teams title formats are not supported.
+From v0.6.49, experimental Viber header OCR is supported using an installed
+Tesseract 5 and the languages selected in OCR options. Open a non-minimized Viber chat
+before opening the profile dialog. Recognition runs locally; message text is not sent
+to OCR and screenshots are not saved. Allow about two seconds after entering a chat.
+An unreadable or changing header does not produce a profile match. OCR mistakes,
+truncated names and Viber UI changes can affect matching. Viber support starts with v0.6.49.
+Profiles stay on this PC (excluded from cloud sync), and are included in manual settings
+export/import. Available from v0.6.48.
+
+**Українською.** Налаштування розділено на вкладки General, Languages, Shortcuts, Clipboard
+і Tools. Перехід між ними зберігає незбережені зміни; Save, Cancel, Import і Export доступні
+на кожній вкладці. Відкрий потрібний чат у Telegram або Teams, потім **Settings → Languages → Languages
+for a chat…**. Вибери чат і потрібні мови, натисни **Use languages**, а потім **Save**.
+Набір діє для **Alt+Shift**, **Win+Space**, **Win+Shift+Space** та **Next layout** KSwitcher.
+Можна вибрати й одну мову; порядок зберігається із загального списку під час редагування профілю. **Remove profile**
+повертає звичайну поведінку. Без профілю системні комбінації працюють як раніше,
+а Next layout використовує загальний набір. Видалені з Windows розкладки пропускаються;
+якщо доступних мов профілю не залишилося, використовується загальний набір.
+Прямі комбінації мов не змінюються; явно задані комбінації KSwitcher мають пріоритет.
+Зіставлення виконується за програмою та назвою чату: однакові назви в одній програмі
+мають спільний профіль, після перейменування потрібен новий. Лічильник непрочитаних
+Telegram ігнорується. Teams підтримує зазначений вище формат заголовка.
+З v0.6.49 Viber експериментально визначається через локальний OCR заголовка:
+потрібен Tesseract 5 із мовами, вибраними в OCR options. Перед відкриттям профілів
+відкрий чат у незгорнутому Viber. Після переходу в чат зачекай приблизно дві секунди.
+Текст повідомлень не передається в OCR, знімки не зберігаються. Нечитабельний або
+мінливий заголовок не дає збігу; помилки OCR, обрізані імена та зміни інтерфейсу Viber
+можуть впливати на визначення. Підтримка Viber доступна з v0.6.49.
+Профілі локальні, входять до ручного експорту/імпорту, але не до
+хмарної синхронізації. Доступно з v0.6.48.

+  Snippets normally require accessibility verification of their selected trigger and pasted text,

+  before selection; pasting a newline could execute a command before it can be verified.
 - Teams recent-word conversion uses a single word-selection command and validates the copied range.

+## Portable utilities
+
+The tray menu's **Tools** 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 **Tools → 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 **Tools → 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`.

 ## Changes
-- Opening clipboard history selects and reveals the newest matching entry instead of restoring an older selection. This fixes reopening history after recording a new screenshot.
-- Search and the pinned-only filter remain saved. Clear the search and uncheck **★ Pinned only** if the new screenshot is hidden.
-- Background clipboard/OCR refreshes preserve the selected record while browsing. Invoking the history shortcut while history is already active retains its existing quick-paste behavior.
-- No shortcuts, settings, capture behavior or storage format changed.
+- Add experimental Viber chat language profiles using local OCR of the chat header. Requires a separate Tesseract 5 installation and the language packs selected in OCR options; Tesseract is not bundled.
+- Open a non-minimized Viber chat, then **Settings → Languages → Languages for a chat...**. Select its Viber entry, choose languages, and click **Use languages → Save**.
+- Apply the profile to **Alt+Shift**, **Win+Space**, reverse **Win+Shift+Space**, and KSwitcher's **Next layout** conversion. Allow about 1–2 seconds after switching chats. OCR runs outside the keyboard hook; the header is checked again before a profile-based system switch.
+- Match by application and recognized name. Identical names share a profile; renamed chats need a new profile. Unreadable or changing headers produce no match. OCR errors, truncated names, scaling and future Viber UI changes can affect recognition. Telegram and Teams profiles retain their existing behavior.
+- Recognition is local: only the cropped header is passed to OCR, screenshots are not saved, and no message text is submitted to OCR. Profiles remain local, are included in manual export/import, and excluded from OpenBao synchronization.
 
 ## Validation
-Passed dictionary equivalence checks for 140,939 words, 105 sync checks, shared wheel regressions, 319 native checks, 574 input checks, screenshot editor UI/save/registration, 48 updater checks and updater progress UI checks. The history regression covers reopening after a new image and preserving an explicitly selected older record during background refresh.
+Passed 653 chat-profile/UI checks (including Viber profile persistence), 332 native checks, 564 input checks, 105 sync checks, complete dictionary equivalence (140,939 words), wheel, StayHere, Utilities, screenshot UI/save/registration, 54 updater checks and updater progress checks. Live Viber header recognition correctly identified a Ukrainian contact; the user confirmed the development integration works. Release binaries, archive, manifest and published downloads are checked during publication.
 
 ## Upgrade
 Choose **Update** in the tray menu. 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.
+For manual installation, exit KSwitcher, close its configurator and screenshot editors, and extract the entire ZIP into its installation folder. Keep personal `data/`, customized dictionaries and your own tools. Keep the three KSwitcher executables together; StayHere runs independently.
 
-Download **KSwitcher-win-x64.zip** with **SHA256SUMS.txt**. Keep all three executables together; history uses another instance of KSwitcher.exe. The package contains no personal settings, credentials or clipboard history.
+When synchronizing phrase replacements across PCs, update each participating PC to v0.6.47 or newer. Chat language profiles do not synchronize. A settings file containing Viber profiles requires v0.6.49 or newer; retain a backup before downgrading.

+KSwitcher portable utilities
+
+Put your trusted portable .exe utilities directly in this tools folder,
+beside this README.txt. Right-click the KSwitcher tray icon and open Tools.
+For example: tools/StayHere.exe appears as Tools > StayHere.
+
+The list refreshes each time the tray menu opens. Subfolders and shortcuts
+are not listed. Utilities start only when you choose them, with this folder
+as their working directory. Closing KSwitcher does not close a utility.
+
+StayHere.exe is bundled. Choose Tools > StayHere to start it; it starts
+enabled, prevents automatic sleep, and sends F15 after 3 minutes of inactivity.
+Left-click its tray icon to pause/resume; right-click for Exit. See StayHere-README.md.
+It does not start automatically with KSwitcher or bypass Windows locking.
+
+Add other utilities separately. Updates preserve your own files in this folder;
+bundled StayHere.exe and documentation may be refreshed. Utilities are not
+transferred by settings synchronization.

+# StayHere
+
+Маленька портативна утиліта для Windows, без .NET та інсталяції.
+
+Виберіть **Tools → StayHere** у меню трея (у v0.6.46 цей пункт називається Utilities)
+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.
