+## v1.7.7-beta.2 - Game Boost hardware-test pre-release
+
+- Opt-in Game Boost: topology-aware game/background CPU Sets, optional priority, safe restoration, crash recovery and Activity diagnostics.
+- Correct Intel P/E classification and derive AMD CCD groups from real L3 topology, including 6+6 CPUs.
+- Three-state EcoQoS for live processes and persistent rules, independent of CPU priority.
+- Persistent-rule backups, validated/transactional imports, deterministic precedence and conflict reporting.
+- Refreshed navigation, process/rule editors, Windows 11 settings rows, layout persistence and scaling fixes.
+- CI and release native tests run on Windows Server 2025: Server 2022 build 20348 rejects EcoQoS read-back with Win32 error 87, even with full query access. The real integration test remains enabled.
+- Pre-release publication keeps the stable/latest release and package-manager channels unchanged.
+- Real Game Boost validation on dual-CCD Ryzen/X3D and Intel hybrid CPUs, gaming benchmarks and anti-cheat testing remain pending. See [test procedure and reporting checklist](releases/v1.7.7-beta.2.md).
+
 ## v1.7.6 - Localized power plans and version-proof process rules
 
 ### Fixed

+# Handoff ThreadPilot — 2026-10-16
+
+## Versione e ambito
+
+La versione preparata è **v1.7.7-beta.2**, esclusivamente pre-release. Include la pila #67–#70, le correzioni della topologia CPU e Game Boost (#71), comprese le modifiche locali del 15 ottobre alla diagnostica Attività. La conferma hardware EcoQoS di SA-Mousavichashmi è nella #66; non equivale alla validazione di Game Boost.
+
+Fonte pubblica per funzionalità, limiti, test richiesti e dati da allegare alle issue: `docs/releases/v1.7.7-beta.2.md`. Queste note vengono usate dal workflow Release. v1.7.6 deve restare stable/latest; la beta non va pubblicata su winget o Chocolatey. I binari sono ancora unsigned.
+
+## Validazione hardware ancora necessaria
+
+- Game Boost su Ryzen dual-CCD X3D (7900X3D/7950X3D/9900X3D/9950X3D), incluso il parcheggio dei core del driver AMD.
+- AMD a CCD uguali (7950X/9950X): confronto Automatico/Isolamento.
+- Intel ibrida: P-core al gioco, E-core al background sulle topologie supportate; ripiego conservativo se il lato gioco ha meno di sei core fisici.
+- Benchmark ripetibili con/senza background e Above Normal, almeno tre passaggi per scenario; FPS medi, 1% low, P95/P99 dei frame time.
+- Giochi protetti/anti-cheat reali, stuttering, crash e regressioni.
+
+QA precedente: Ryzen 7 5800X3D single-CCD e VM Windows 11 pulita; impostazioni, sessioni, priorità, rispetto delle modifiche manuali/regole e recupero dopo crash. Il test nativo CPU Sets usa vere chiamate Windows ma topologia dual-L3 simulata: non dimostra il comportamento su vero hardware multi-CCD. I test nativi Game Boost non esercitano lo split sui piccoli runner CI.
+
+## Verifiche e pubblicazione
+
+- Test Release locali dopo la preparazione beta: 851 passati; audit dipendenze senza vulnerabilità segnalate; installer/portable generati e smoke test del single-file riuscito.
+- Causa della CI EcoQoS: Server 2022 build 20348 rifiuta GetProcessInformation(ProcessPowerThrottling) con errore 87 sia con query limitata sia completa. I job con test nativi e smoke usano ora Server 2025, coerente con il target Windows 11; il round-trip reale non viene saltato.
+- Per stato effettivo di merge/release/CI consultare GitHub, non dedurlo dalla presenza di questo file: `gh pr list`, `gh run list`, `gh release view v1.7.7-beta.2`.
+- Prima del tag verificare CI della combinazione finale e corrispondenza del codice con tutte le modifiche locali. Il tag deve puntare al commit integrato in main.
+- Dopo il tag verificare artifact installer/portable/SHA256, smoke test, flag prerelease=true e `/releases/latest` ancora su v1.7.6.
+- Pulire solo i branch della pila e Game Boost dopo l'integrazione; lasciare intatti worktree e branch di altri lavori.
+
+## Convenzioni
+
+- Fine riga misti: prima del commit confrontare `git diff --numstat` e `git diff --ignore-cr-at-eol --numstat`.
+- Sette lingue in `Locales/*.xaml`, con le stesse chiavi; layout coperto dai test di contratto XAML.
+- Per altri dettagli di sviluppo: `docs/IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md`, `docs/UX_REDESIGN_PLAN.md`, `docs/release/RELEASE_RUNBOOK.md`.

+# Redesign UX — chiarezza (ottobre 2026)
+
+Branch `feat/ux-clarity`, impilato su #69 (EcoQoS). Nessuna modifica al formato dei dati: regole, impostazioni e backup restano compatibili.
+
+## Problemi osservati (screenshot dell'app 1.7.6)
+
+- Menu laterale solo a icone: sette icone senza etichetta.
+- Processi: casella di ricerca senza testo guida, nove controlli sparsi nella barra, pannello dettagli come un'unica colonna di etichette e paragrafi, selettori che non mostrano il valore attuale del processo.
+- Regole: tre schede e la prima aperta è la meno usata (associazioni dei piani energetici); nell'editor le scelte compaiono come nomi interni (`BelowNormal`, `SystemManaged`).
+- Sottotitoli lunghi su quasi tutte le pagine.
+
+## Regole di stile
+
+1. Titolo della pagina e al massimo una riga breve; le spiegazioni vanno nei tooltip.
+2. Una sezione = un riquadro con un titolo breve.
+3. Un solo pulsante principale (accent) per riquadro.
+4. I selettori mostrano lo stato attuale; "Applica" agisce solo sul valore cambiato.
+5. Etichette leggibili per le persone, mai nomi interni di enum.
+
+## Interventi
+
+- [x] Menu laterale aperto con etichette brevi (Processi, Maschere CPU, Piani energetici, Regole, Attività, Ottimizzazioni).
+- [x] Processi: ricerca con testo guida; filtri e colonne in due menu a tendina; dettagli in tre riquadri (Processo, Priorità, Core CPU) più la riga della regola; selettori allineati allo stato attuale; testi di aiuto nei tooltip.
+- [x] Regole: scheda "Regole dei processi" per prima, nomi delle schede più chiari, etichette localizzate nell'editor.
+- [x] Sottotitoli accorciati in tutte le lingue.
+- [x] Impostazioni e Ottimizzazioni in una colonna di righe in stile Impostazioni di Windows 11 (titolo e descrizione a sinistra, interruttore a destra); sezioni più usate in alto.
+- [x] Avvisi della finestra principale: già mostrati uno alla volta (coda elevazione → avvio ridotto → modalità CPU in `MainWindow.Behaviors.partial.cs`); nessuna modifica necessaria.
+- [x] Elenco regole: colonne "Applica" e "Modalità" localizzate.
+- [x] Rimosse 76 stringhe non più usate da tutte le lingue.

+# ThreadPilot v1.7.7-beta.2 — Game Boost & efficiency mode
+
+**Pre-release for testing, not a stable release.** This build includes all changes since v1.7.6, including the latest local Game Boost work. v1.7.6 remains the stable/latest release; this beta is not distributed through winget, Chocolatey or stable automatic updates.
+
+## What's included
+
+- **Game Boost (opt-in):** topology-aware CPU Sets for the game and explicitly listed background apps, optional Above Normal priority, persistent-rule precedence, restoration when the game exits or Game Boost is disabled, and crash-recovery journaling. Activity now shows session start/end, what was applied or left unchanged, and restore results.
+- **CPU topology fixes:** Intel P/E cores use the highest Windows EfficiencyClass for P-cores; AMD CCD groups come from real L3 groups and sizes, including 6+6 layouts.
+- **Efficiency mode / EcoQoS:** Windows decides / On / Off, independently of CPU priority, for live processes and saved rules. A warning explains the global Power Throttling override.
+- **Rules and backup reliability:** persistent rules are included in configuration backups; imports are validated and rolled back on failure; overlapping rules have deterministic precedence and conflict reporting.
+- **UI refresh:** labelled navigation, clearer Process and Rules editors, priority undo, Windows 11-style Settings/Tweaks, remembered layout and filters, scaling fixes, and seven-language localization.
+- **CI/release fixes:** native EcoQoS tests now run on a Windows 11-era kernel (Server 2025), rather than Server 2022 which rejects power-throttling read-back. Beta tags remain pre-release and cannot replace the stable/latest release or enter the winget publication job.
+
+## Validation status — hardware testers needed
+
+**Game Boost is not yet validated on real dual-CCD Ryzen / dual-CCD X3D or Intel hybrid hardware, and comparative gaming benchmarks are still pending. No FPS improvement is claimed.**
+
+The previous QA covered a single-CCD Ryzen 7 5800X3D and a clean Windows 11 VM: UI/settings, session detection, optional priority, respecting manual changes and rules, and crash recovery. Real Windows CPU Set apply/read/restore calls were tested with a simulated dual-L3 topology; that is not a substitute for real multi-CCD hardware. Anti-cheat/protected-game behavior still needs real-game testing.
+
+EcoQoS itself (not Game Boost) was independently verified by @SA-Mousavichashmi on an Intel i5-12500H, Windows 11 build 26300.9711: On/Off/system-managed, persistent rules, independent CPU priority and protected-process failures.
+
+We especially need reports from:
+
+- **AMD dual-CCD X3D:** 7900X3D / 7950X3D / 9900X3D / 9950X3D. Verify that the game uses the V-Cache CCD and listed background apps use the other CCD; check for interaction with AMD chipset-driver core parking.
+- **AMD equal-CCD CPUs:** e.g. 7950X / 9950X. Automatic should leave the game's placement to Windows and move only listed background apps; Isolation also places the game on CCD0.
+- **Intel hybrid CPUs:** 12th–14th gen / Core Ultra, where supported. Verify game on P-cores and listed background apps on E-cores, especially in heavily multithreaded games.
+
+Game Boost conservatively leaves CPU Sets unchanged on unsupported/single-CCD CPUs, incomplete topology, or fewer than six physical cores on the game side. A laptop with fewer than six P-cores can therefore correctly report that Windows decides. Optional priority is separate.
+
+## Quick test procedure
+
+1. Export a configuration backup. Record your CPU, Windows build (`winver`), chipset-driver version, and for AMD whether the `amd3dvcache` service is installed. Keep power plan, game settings and background load consistent.
+2. In **Tweaks / Ottimizzazioni → Game Boost**, leave **Above Normal off**, choose **Automatic**, add your game manually if it is outside a recognized library, and check the background-app list. Enable Game Boost, then bring the game to the foreground.
+3. Read the topology decision on the Game Boost card and session events in **Activity**. Inspect actual process **CPU Sets** in ThreadPilot, System Informer or Process Lasso; Task Manager's classic affinity mask does not show soft CPU Sets. On dual-CCD X3D, expect 16 game logical CPUs for an 8-core V-Cache CCD or 12 for a 6-core CCD when SMT is enabled. On Intel, compare the game selection with the P-core thread count.
+4. Alt+Tab: the session should remain active. Close the game or disable Game Boost: only changes owned by Game Boost should be restored. Existing rules and later manual changes should be respected. On equal-CCD AMD systems, repeat with **Isolation** and compare. Do not disable anti-cheat or bypass protected-process restrictions.
+5. For performance, use CapFrameX or PresentMon with the same scene and **at least three runs per scenario**: (a) Game Boost off; (b) on, no background load; (c) on with browser video / Steam download; (d) same as (c), with Above Normal on. Compare average FPS, 1% lows, P95/P99 frame times and run-to-run variance.
+
+## Send us your results
+
+Open an [issue](https://github.com/PrimeBuild-pc/ThreadPilot/issues) titled **[1.7.7-beta.2][Game Boost] CPU model — result/problem**. Successful tests are useful too. Include:
+
+- Exact ThreadPilot version, CPU, SMT on/off, Windows build, chipset driver, active power plan, and AMD `amd3dvcache` service status.
+- Game name/version, Game Boost mode, Above Normal setting, background apps/load, and any relevant saved rules or pre-existing CPU Sets.
+- Expected versus actual result, reproduction steps, whether disabling Game Boost restores normal behavior, and any stutter, crash, anti-cheat refusal or regression.
+- Screenshot of the Game Boost topology decision and actual game/background CPU Sets, plus relevant **Activity** entries/export. Attach CapFrameX/PresentMon captures or a small comparison table if available.
+
+Redact usernames, personal executable paths and unrelated log entries before uploading.
+
+## Known limits & safety
+
+- Above Normal only raises a game that starts at Normal; a game at another priority is left unchanged.
+- Manual selection of exactly the CPU Sets that Game Boost already applied cannot be distinguished from its own selection and may be cleared at session end unless saved in a rule.
+- Detection requires a recognized library plus foreground activity, or a manually listed game. Add Battle.net/other custom-install games explicitly when needed.
+- Applications can override their own QoS or CPU Sets. Protected processes can refuse access; ThreadPilot does not bypass protection.
+- Artifacts are **unsigned** while code-signing enrollment is pending; Windows SmartScreen may warn. Verify SHA256 before running. Upgrading preserves settings; uninstalling removes ThreadPilot-owned user data.
