The pool now warms up from what the previous run learned instead of starting
cold every launch. Startup probes the remembered proxies first, stops as soon
as ProxyMinimumLive of them answer, and writes the survivors to
proxies.state.json after the warm-up and again on shutdown. Only proxies that
ever answered are stored: the feed republishes a few thousand dead addresses
every five minutes, and "was dead an hour ago" says almost nothing.
Remembered state is a hint, not a verdict. A restored proxy sorts first in the
warm-up queue but is not counted live until it answers in this session -
otherwise a launch a week later would report live proxies it had never spoken
to, the warm-up would skip the very entries it exists to re-check, and the
parser gate would open on week-old evidence.
That gate is the other half: a parser declaring RequiresNetwork will not run
while the pool has nothing live. The Parse page disables the run button and
shows a banner that leads to the Proxies page. Parsers that work on pasted text
are never gated - they have nothing to route, and blocking them would make the
app useless whenever the public lists are down. Two new settings cover the
escape hatch and the target: "allow network parsers without a proxy" and how
many live proxies to find at startup.

Strings move into Localization/Strings.resx plus a Russian satellite. XAML uses
a {l:Loc Key} markup extension that yields a binding through the localizer's
indexer rather than a resolved string, so changing the language raises
PropertyChanged for the indexer and every caption in the app re-reads at once.
Resolving strings once at load would have been simpler and would have needed an
app restart to take effect.
Three places where this is more than a string swap:
Russian has three plural forms, so counted messages are assembled from .One /
.Few / .Many keys via Localizer.Plural instead of "{0} records" with an English
plural glued on. "1 запись", "3 записи", "7 записей".
Enum captions in pickers go through LocalizedOption<T>. A value converter would
resolve the caption once and never notice a language change; the wrapper keeps
identity on the enum value so the selection survives, while the label follows
the localizer. It needed a non-generic base for DataTemplate x:DataType, since
Avalonia 12 compiles bindings by default and cannot infer one for an open
generic.
Text originating in the domain would otherwise have stayed English under a
Russian UI — the screenshots showed exactly that. AvParser.Core still knows
nothing about languages: ParseError now carries a Code and Arguments, and the UI
translates Parse.Error.{Code} with a fallback to the English message. Parser
names work the same way (Parser.{id}.Name falling back to DisplayName), which
keeps "add a parser = one registration line" true — an untranslated parser shows
its own name rather than a missing-key marker.
Both .resx files are generated from one table so a key cannot exist in one and
be missing from the other, and the tests assert that, plus no blank translations
and identical {0} placeholder sets — a translation that drops a placeholder
throws at runtime rather than merely reading oddly. A headless test switches
language on a live shell and asserts the rendered text changes without the tree
being rebuilt.
