A diagnostic ring (boot evidence + recent lines + status) routinely exceeds 64 KiB on a long session: a 651-line evidence ring measured ~90 KB and was rejected with "log body too large" (mod.postLog returned nil and the send was dropped).
The transport stages the body to a file and streams it via curl, so the ceiling is a budget, not a memory spike. 512 KiB is generous for real support logs while staying far under the 5 MiB the reference loghook endpoint accepts.
tmpnam() on the Windows CRT returns a bare, CWD-relative name (e.g. \sb4c.2), and io.open on it fails with Permission denied when the game's working directory is not writable -- a Program Files (or otherwise protected) install. postLog then dies before curl runs: the mod reports a send failure and no bytes leave the machine (confirmed on a Windows install: "could not create request body: \sb4c.2: Permission denied").
Stage the request body under the OS temp contract instead: TEMP/TMP on Windows (always set, always per-user writable), TMPDIR with a /tmp fallback on POSIX. The transport stays on plain io/os -- no love.filesystem dependency.
Tests updated to mock os.getenv and assert the staged path sits under the temp dir; 10/10 checks pass.
We already ship the DLL, but mods can't ffi-load it under the sandbox, and
the compat love.system shim wasn't passing tls* through either. So wss://
still died on stock builds. Engine loads the dialer at boot; compat forwards
those keys; clipboard/openURL stay stubbed.

- Auto-recover save slots: Scan saves/<version>/ on boot to re-index orphaned slot files if options.lua is reset or loses its slot registry.
- Fix Gen 2 field moves: Make PartyMenu field actions (Strength, Surf, Cut, Flash) generation-aware so they execute safely in Gold.
- Fortify platform stability: Guard native controller/hidapi init against Android 14 receiver exceptions and ensure safe Windows file replacement.
- Add unit test coverage for slot auto-recovery in save_editor_gen2_tests.lua.
The save editor now routes Gold vs RBY through a generation adapter so boxes, items, events, and maps write the right fields. The launcher layout is shuffled a bit, and patch notes can come from the updater, a packed file, or the iOS sidecar.
