What is new in Avakasha 0.1.0-beta.18

- **Wrong verdict? Report it…** under the details of a Free up space row: choose what is wrong (not safe to move, could be marked safe, wrong description, something else), add an optional note, and Avakasha opens a prefilled issue on GitHub in your browser. Nothing is sent until you submit it there. The report holds the catalogue entry's name and fixed path, or for a folder found by searching only the name that matched (for example `~/…/node_modules`), never your own folder names; plus the verdict, your note and the app and macOS versions. Not offered for folders untouched for months, which are your own files, nor in the read-only demo.

### Install

Download `Avakasha-0.1.0-beta.18-universal.zip`, unzip, and move Avakasha to Applications. This beta is ad-hoc signed, not notarized: the first time, right-click the app and choose Open (or allow it in System Settings › Privacy & Security). You can also build it from source with `bash scripts/build-app.sh`. macOS 13 or later.

Checksum: see `Avakasha-0.1.0-beta.18-universal.zip.sha256`.
