A source-reliability and original-content release addressed repeated YouTube bot challenges and expanded the site beyond transactional download pages.

- Added a browser-local video file-size calculator and timestamp/frame clip planner.
- Added an interactive format compatibility guide and media download rights checklist with primary references.
- Expanded sitemap and internal discovery to 23 canonical public pages.

Production downloader reliability and the public search architecture received a focused maintenance release.
- Removed the workstation-dependent YouTube source route from production.

- Added Contact, DMCA & Copyright, Changelog, and Status pages and updated the sitemap and internal links.
