📂 Drag-drop slicing

Drop an STL anywhere on the Home tab. J1 Bridge slices it with the correct J1 profile, patches the printer's broken start macro, uploads, and starts the print. One drag — no Reddit hacks, no manual gcode shuffling.

Correct J1 / J1s profiles built in
Start-macro patch removes wiper-mark artifacts
Auto-upload + auto-start

🛡️ Safety gates + honest Known Issues

Safety gates — fan clamp, start-macro patch, bed-temp override — default ON. And every copy ships with a built-in Known Issues tab on day one. No surprises, no marketing claim the code can't back up.
