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.

The parser will need to move between proxies, so this adds the module it will
sit on: pluggable sources, a pool that hands proxies out and learns from the
outcome, three rotation strategies, and a page to drive it.
Sources are IProxySource implementations. The public proxifly/free-proxy-list
feed is fetched as the combined all/data.json through jsDelivr and filtered
locally — one conditional request beats four per-protocol ones that can disagree
mid-publish — and cached for the five minutes upstream takes to regenerate. A
feed that is down keeps serving its last payload rather than emptying the pool.
The user's own list lives in proxies.custom.json beside the settings, takes a
pasted blob, and names the lines it could not parse instead of quietly dropping
them.
Both knobs the pool exposes are settings, as asked: rotation is Sticky (default,
the only one that keeps site sessions coherent), RoundRobin or WeightedRandom;
liveness is either a parallel sweep of the whole pool or a probe at hand-out
time. Free lists are a few percent alive, so skipping verification entirely
means mostly waiting on timeouts.
Two invariants worth keeping, both of which cost a bug to find:
Availability is decided by the quarantine, never by Health. Excluding everything
that has ever failed made the quarantine window dead code and discarded proxies
permanently on their first hiccup, which is exactly wrong for addresses that
flap constantly. Health only orders the candidates now.
A probe verdict does not touch the success/failure counters. Those are about
real requests, and letting a sweep over a few thousand proxies rewrite them
would drown the evidence weighted selection reads.
SOCKS needs no extra package — .NET resolves socks4/socks4a/socks5 in WebProxy —
but a proxifly record with "protocol": "https" is still an HTTP proxy reached
over http:// with CONNECT, not an https:// scheme.
115 new tests. Also fixes a pre-existing flake: a command gated on another
command's IsExecuting cannot be driven straight after its Execute() completes,
because IsExecuting is published on the output scheduler.

A wrapper around `dotnet build` earns nothing, so build.ps1/build.sh are the
full local gate instead — tool restore, package restore, format check, build,
test — in the order that fails cheapest first, with a non-zero exit on failure.
run.ps1/run.sh default to Debug and pass extra arguments through to the app.
Both flavours ship because the Desktop head targets Windows, Linux and macOS.
Writing them immediately paid for itself: the very first run failed restore on
Avalonia.Diagnostics 12.1.1, which does not exist — the package stops at 11.3.x
because Avalonia 12 moved the inspector into a separate tool with its own
installation. The reference had survived because it sat behind
Condition="'$(Configuration)' == 'Debug'", and `dotnet restore` evaluates with
the default configuration while every build so far had passed -c Release. So
`dotnet build -c Release` worked and a bare `dotnet restore` did not.
Reference removed rather than replaced: AvaloniaUI.DiagnosticsSupport pulls in a
separately installed tool, which is not a dependency to add to a skeleton without
asking. README and CLAUDE.md no longer promise F12, and both traps are written
down where the next person will hit them.

Greenfield skeleton for a parser desktop app. The domain is deliberately a
placeholder — IParser<TIn,TOut> plus two sample parsers — so the shell is
runnable and verifiable end to end before real logic lands.
Layers run one way: Core (no Avalonia, no IO) <- Infrastructure <- UI <- Desktop.
UI is a class library rather than the exe so headless tests build real views
without dragging in Program.cs, Serilog or the container.
Adaptive layout is built from what Avalonia actually offers, since it has no
AdaptiveTrigger or media queries: ResponsiveLayout observes Visual.Bounds and
projects a breakpoint onto both an attached property and :compact/:medium/
:expanded pseudoclasses, with 24px hysteresis so dragging a window edge cannot
make the layout flap. Pane state lives in the view model because a style setter
loses to a local value permanently; styles own only the visual variance.
Stack notes worth remembering: Avalonia.ReactiveUI is deprecated in favour of
ReactiveUI.Avalonia, and ReactiveUI 24 runs on the Primitives engine (RxVoid,
ISequencer, Signal<T>) and no longer self-initialises. Avalonia.Headless.XUnit
12.x requires xUnit v3. InvariantGlobalization must stay false or Semi.Avalonia
throws in its static constructor.
102 tests across three projects, including headless guards for the two failures
that are otherwise completely silent: a stylesheet whose selectors match nothing,
and a light palette too low-contrast for cards to read.
