docs(readme): give the What's New section a real structure
It was twelve undifferentiated feature bullets and no fixes at all,
which reads as an incomplete release rather than a three-month one.
Now grouped into New / Improved / Fixed / Platform. The New group is a
two-column table so the Beta, Chrome and Pro qualifiers are visible at a
glance instead of buried mid-sentence, and Fixed finally says what got
repaired — lost meetings, startup crashes, mic capture, profile leakage,
Windows multi-monitor, and English staying English.
Same facts as the release note, condensed; the full note stays one click
away.

### What's New in v2.8.7 (Latest Release)
420
420
421
-
Everything since v2.7.0 — a smarter answer engine, hands-free Auto Answer, long-term memory, rebuilt meeting notes, a Chrome companion extension, and NVIDIA speech. The 2.8.0–2.8.6 builds were never published here, so their work ships in this release too.
422
-
423
-
-**Auto Answer (Beta)**: Answers appear on their own the moment the other person finishes a question. Natively judges whether an answer is actually wanted and stays silent when it isn't — no card to dismiss, no button to press. Off by default; enable it in **Settings → General**.
424
-
-**A New Answer Engine**: Answers now pick their source properly — your résumé, an uploaded document, the live conversation, or general knowledge — instead of blending them together. Follow-up questions keep the thread even after the topic changes.
425
-
-**Meeting Notes, Rebuilt**: Summaries adapt to the kind of meeting you're in, get a real title instead of the first line of the transcript, and scale in length with the meeting. Plus editable speaker labels and a ready-to-send follow-up email draft.
426
-
-**Browser Companion for Chrome**: Press **⌘/Ctrl+Y** to pull the page you're looking at into your next answer — a job description, a coding problem, documentation. One click enables it everywhere.
427
-
-**Two New Built-in Modes**: **Seminar** for strict file-grounded Q&A (thesis defenses, paper walkthroughs), and **Call Center** for support calls framed as issue → resolution → escalation.
428
-
-**NVIDIA NIM & NVIDIA Speech**: A new provider for both text and real-time transcription, with nine streaming models to choose from.
429
-
-**Hindsight Long-Term Memory (Pro)**: A local vector database that indexes your past meetings, profiles and documents, so Natively can recall what was said weeks ago instead of only what's in the current session. Opt-in from Settings.
430
-
-**Role Insight (Pro)**: Paste a job description and see every requirement pulled out, checked against your profile, and scored for coverage.
431
-
-**Windows Stealth Typing**: Type into the meeting overlay without your call ever losing focus. Handles Alt+Tab, clicking away, and steps aside for CJK/IME input.
432
-
-**Skills Upload & Delete**: Add your own skill as a file or folder with a preview before it installs, and remove ones you no longer want — no more editing folders by hand.
433
-
-**Redesigned Meeting Overlay**: Panel, pill and resize control now move as one, answers stream in word by word, and scrolling back no longer fights you.
434
-
-**Signed macOS Builds & Faster Transcription**: Signed builds for Apple Silicon and Intel, a macOS 12 (Monterey) compatibility guard for local speech, and live transcription moved to low-latency regional hosts.

#### ⚡ Improved
436
+
437
+
-**A smarter answer engine.** Answers now pick their source properly — your résumé, an uploaded document, the live conversation, or general knowledge — instead of blending them. Follow-ups keep the thread even after the topic changes.
438
+
-**Meeting notes, rebuilt.** Summaries adapt to the kind of meeting you're in, get a real title instead of the first line of the transcript, and scale in length with the meeting. Plus editable speaker labels and a ready-to-send follow-up email draft.
439
+
-**Redesigned meeting overlay.** Panel, pill and resize control move as one, answers stream in word by word, and scrolling back no longer fights you.
440
+
-**Faster everywhere.** Answers are prepared ahead of time, local speech no longer stalls when a meeting starts, and live transcription moved to low-latency regional hosts.
441
+
-**Refreshed interface.** Apple-style toggles, smoother section transitions, a new Soft Orchid accent, clearer code blocks, and calmer onboarding.
442
+
-**New default models** — Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite and Gemini 3.7 Flash — plus the full Claude catalogue and real provider logos in the model picker.
443
+
-**Windows stealth typing.** Type into the meeting overlay without your call ever losing focus. Handles Alt+Tab, clicking away, and steps aside for CJK/IME input.
444
+
445
+
#### 🛠 Fixed
446
+
447
+
-**Startup.** Fixed the app getting stuck on the logo, several memory leaks that could crash the launcher, and a crash that could stop the app opening ever again.
448
+
-**Meetings were being lost.** A database bug meant some meetings never saved. Fixed — and a meeting is never left unnamed.
449
+
-**Microphone and audio.** Fixed the mic being held after a failed start, capture breaking when you switch devices mid-meeting, and system audio missed on some Windows setups.
450
+
-**Answers.** Your profile no longer leaks into unrelated technical questions, internal markers no longer show up on screen, and a slow provider can't overwrite an answer you already have.
451
+
-**Windows.** Screenshots capture the right monitor, the cropper works across multiple displays, shortcuts no longer stop working in stealth mode, and the overlay stays above fullscreen calls and screen shares.
452
+
-**Language.** Choosing English now actually keeps answers in English.
453
+
454
+
#### 🖥 Platform
455
+
456
+
- Electron 43 and TypeScript 7; requires Node 22.6+ to build from source.
457
+
- Signed macOS builds for **both** Apple Silicon and Intel, plus a macOS 12 (Monterey) compatibility guard for local speech.
