Changelog

Changed

Resource list tables (containers, images, volumes, networks, pods, secrets, machines, registries) now render only on-screen rows (virtualization), so large lists scroll and search smoothly. Grouping, connectors, striping, sorting, selection and sticky headers unchanged; the containers Image column is fixed-width with ellipsis so it no longer resizes while scrolling.
Mock mode (CONTAINER_DESKTOP_MOCK) generates its sample data from a fixed seed instead of static fixtures — deterministic and semantically-sound, scaled for UI stress-testing (60+ containers and 30+ of every other resource per engine, now including registries and machines). Dev/test only; tree-shaken out of production builds.
Network settings: test-before-save global proxy for app traffic and native Podman commands.
Added AI chatbot.
Refactored the engine-communication layer into smaller, single-responsibility modules — no functional change.
Refactored Application.ts — moved the registry catalog/search, security-report and environment helpers into focused container-client/application/ modules — no functional change.
Settings split into categories with a left nav rail: Appearance, Startup & behavior, AI Assistant, Configuration, Logging.
Logs can be saved to a local file on demand, with rotation and a size cap — on-device, never uploaded.
Cleaned up code comments across the codebase — no functional change.

Connection info shows the real socket (DOCKER_HOST) instead of a blank unix:// — the resolved per-connection socket now reaches the renderer, and a settings refresh can't erase it.
Live container logs no longer crash on getApiDriver of undefined — the stream targets the container's own connection, not an undefined global engine.
Settings: the monospace-font picker keeps its filter on top and caps the list height; the "Check for new versions" buttons render at equal size.
