Highlights

• Assistant Overlay: new global voice assistant bubble with voice input + speech playback status + rounded animated panda video.
• Five-step Onboarding: guided setup flow (tool discovery → accessibility → screen capture → download Shizuku → prepare with Shizuku) with smart skip for completed steps.
• Long-text TTS support: cloud TTS now auto-splits long text into ≤150 char chunks and streams playback segment by segment.
• Startup permission chain: microphone + notification + contacts permissions requested in sequence at first launch.
• Overlay lifecycle: app icon restores main UI and auto-closes overlay bubble, overlay button restores app and minimizes it to background.
• Prompt improvement: pocopaw now introduces itself as a silly tinkering panda with app-control tricks (disclaimer: chaotic tinkerer, not responsible for mishaps).
