A calmer look, one weighted ledger, and a safe copy of your whole project.
New
·Weighted ledger. A run of saves collapses into one session entry, named for the file it touched, with a grid of times and word changes underneath.
·Three roles. Every tracked file is a Manuscript, a Source, or an Artifact. The role is what the ledger records; format is read from the file.
·Whole-project backup. Point at a folder and Provenance mirrors the project automatically, verifying after each sync. Remove it any time without deleting the copy.
·Process Record. A shareable summary of how the work was made — sessions, span, density, and verification — one click from the timeline.
·Capture panel. One Add surface: type a check-in, or drop a file as an artifact or source. Import and triage move to the Inbox.
·Feedback, end to end. Request a clean reading page from any version — a reviewer comments offline with nothing installed and returns one small file. Provenance logs their notes against the exact version that answered them.
Improved
·Unified header. A project switcher replaces the tabs and title; the process summary sits in the titlebar.
·Centered timeline. The ledger reads down a calm central column, capped at both ends.
·Native menus. System menus everywhere, flat unified ground, search moved to ⌘F.
·Honest placement. An old file imported today lands at today; its artifact shows both created and imported dates.
Fixed
·Arrival no longer logs a ledger event. Importing a manuscript is triage, not a recorded moment.
·“Project connected” shows a real date. instead of a null value.
·Backup no longer accumulates numbered folders. — the swap replaces the prior copy in place.
