enricobuehlerandClaude Fable 5 94f0207cbd feat(windows/client): logs persist — %LOCALAPPDATA%\punktfunk\logs\client.log
The shell is a windows_subsystem binary and spawns punktfunk-session with
CREATE_NO_WINDOW + inherited stderr: a normal GUI/MSIX launch has no
console, so every log line — the shell's and the session's whole
receive/decode/present forensic trail — evaporated exactly when a user
hit something worth reporting. The 2026-07 PyroWave latency-sawtooth
report had to be triaged from host logs alone; the deciding evidence
(clock re-sync vs backlog-flush lines) lives client-side.

- New logfile module: %LOCALAPPDATA%\punktfunk\logs\client.log,
  the host's rotation convention (10 MB cap -> .old at next start, one
  generation), best-effort (no dir -> plain stderr, never a startup
  failure).
- The tracing subscriber tees to stderr AND the file (ANSI off — the
  file is what users send); startup logs the path.
- The spawned session's stderr is piped through the same tee,
  line-buffered — dev-terminal runs keep their interleaved output,
  GUI runs finally keep anything at all.
- The --console path and the punktfunk-console.exe MSIX shim forward
  the same way (a couch launch has no console either).
