Beta 1.6.1

  • Moved Microsoft authentication to a remote Auth API — the launcher no longer performs OAuth exchanges directly with Microsoft.
  • Added AUTH_API_BASE configuration to handle /start, /complete, and /refresh endpoints for login and token refresh.
  • Removed the embedded CLIENT_ID from the client binary for improved security.
  • Updated the login flow to use a secure API-managed redirect instead of a direct localhost callback.
  • Adjusted the login thread and callback logic to support the new remote authentication flow and error handling.
  • Added a new example file: data/no_api_microsoft_auth.py, a lightweight Microsoft login implementation for forks or custom Microsoft Entra apps.
  • Updated the README with detailed instructions for using a custom CLIENT_ID and setting up your own Microsoft authentication flow.

Note: Only official builds released by me will have access to Microsoft login. This is not to restrict forks or community builds, it’s a security measure to prevent the official Microsoft application ID from being banned or blacklisted due to unauthorized use. Forks can use the new example file to register their own Microsoft Entra app safely.
