Complete Settings contract: every existing user-configurable behavior is exposed through the native General, Appearance, or Updates panes. Preferences is now the single observable runtime model backed by UserDefaults; existing values survive, and invalid or obsolete shortcut, appearance, and Boolean values restore documented defaults.
Temporary window activation: pause on a target and WindowHop raises it behind the still-active switcher after a short debounce. Confirm commits that target; Escape or outside click restores the exact origin when it still exists. Temporary focus changes never rewrite MRU history, and closed origins/targets, rapid traversal, same-app windows, modal confirmation, and Settings focus races are covered by regressions.

Clear preview boundaries and selection: uniform horizontal card spacing, a subtle outline on every preview, restrained hover/temporary emphasis, and exactly one strong blue selected outline that remains legible over bright and dark snapshots without moving layout.
Canvas-aligned overlays: the app badge is 60% of its former size at the fixed canvas bottom-right and overlaps both edges; Close is 50% of its former rendered size over the top-left with a 44 pt hit target. Both stay aligned across wide, tall, letterboxed, loading, and unavailable windows.
Global Settings control: the gear is 50% of its former rendered size and overlays the panel with its center on the top-right corner, without a reserved chrome strip, preview displacement, or visible-panel size changes.
Consistent preview geometry: source images remain proportional, centered, and transparently letterboxed while outline, selection, shadow, overlays, hit testing, and title rhythm all follow the display-ratio preview canvas.
