What's new in this version:

Breaking changes:
- The file /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/tmp/karabiner_grabber_manipulator_environment.json is no longer updated
- You can still use EventViewer to check current variable values

Fixed:
- Fixed an issue in EventViewer where new events were not added while the "Unknown Events" tab was open

New Features:
- Added a "Temporarily turns off all Karabiner-Elements modifications" toggle to EventViewer
- Added a feature that lets you set environment variables via /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/config/karabiner_environment
- Added support for devices that expose the Programmable Buttons usage on the Consumer Usage Page. (e.g., VEC USB Footpedal)
- Added set_variable.expression and set_variable.key_up_expression
- Added expression_if and expression_unless
- Added system.now.milliseconds to variables
- Added integer_value to the from event definition

Improved:
- Updated the app icon for macOS 26
- Added support for Liquid Glass
- Reduced the load on karabiner_grabber
- In particular, CPU usage is lower when handling high-frequency events (e.g., mouse input)
- Improved handling of the ignore_vendor_events setting
- The UI already prevented enabling this for Apple devices, and now, even if you manually set ignore_vendor_events in karabiner.json, vendor events for Apple devices will always be processed regardless of the setting
- Adjusted the layouts in Settings and EventViewer to show more information

Supported the following keys:
- generic_desktop::system_app_menu
- consumer_key_code::microphone
- consumer_key_code::selection
- pointing_button::button33 ... pointing_button::button255
- Sparkle Framework has been updated
