  · Notion Sync Consolidation & Race-Condition Fixes (v0.5.1):
  - Centralized Process Lock: Unified the dashboard manual sync hook and background auto-archive pipeline under a single, robust lock. This completely eliminates concurrent sync triggers and duplicate entries in Notion.
  - Optimized State Persistence: Enhanced transaction handling to ensure the database atomic flags are updated correctly under any network latency.
  
  · Triple-Layer Sync Defense (v0.5.0):
  - Zero-Duplication Guarantee: A re-architected synchronization engine with triple-layer protection (Persistent Process Locks, Record-Level Atomic Flags, and Server-Side Idempotency Pre-checks) ensures your Notion workspace remains pristine and free of duplicate entries.
  - Self-Healing Resilience: Improved recovery mechanisms that automatically detect and clear "zombie" sync states or timed-out locks after system wake-up or Service Worker crashes.
  - Refactored Sync Core: A hardened synchronization core that provides 100% reliable data flow from your browser to your external knowledge base.
  
  · Reasoning Stream & Focus Dialogue (v0.4.1):
  - Real-time Reasoning Visualization: Native support for `<think>` tag extraction in Focus Mode dialogue, revealing the AI's internal thought process via a transient, auto-scrolling UI block.
  - Refined Intel Aesthetics: The reasoning stream features a subtle transparency fade and clean typography, automatically hiding itself once the final response is ready.
  
  · Hybrid Link Rescue & Auto-Focus (v0.4.0):
  - Hybrid Link Rescue: Intelligent disaster recovery for dead links via high-fidelity Toast notifications and custom fallback pages.
  - Notion Snapshot Focus: Zero-friction recovery that automatically expands and scrolls to your archived content in Notion.
  - Cross-Domain Orchestration: Seamless automation between the web and your Notion snapshots.
  
  · AI & Sync Reliability (v0.3.x):
  - Self-Healing Extraction: Upgraded extraction pipeline with silent auto-recovery for LLM hallucinations and format errors.
  - Intelligent Task Queue: Sequential background processing to eliminate API rate limits (429) during heavy usage.
  - Duplicate Prevention: Multi-layer guard system ensures clean, idempotent Notion synchronization.
  · Deep Reasoning Engine:
  - Real-time "Thought Process" visualization for modern reasoning models (e.g., DeepSeek R1, Claude 3.7).
  - Advanced DOM Pruning: Optimized HTML-to-Markdown conversion for higher analytical precision and lower token costs.
