Phase 9 (AI integration) complete -- AI agents can send/receive serial
while the user watches live in the GUI, with the GUI as sole COM-port owner.
- ETTerms.SerialMcp: stdio MCP server (net8.0 + ModelContextProtocol SDK)
exposing serial_list / serial_attach / serial_write / serial_read
(waitFor + timeoutMs) / serial_detach; forwards over named pipe.
- GUI SerialBridgeServer (pipe etterms-serial) + SerialBridge endpoint;
SessionPage.WriteFromAi echoes MCP-sourced TX tagged [AI] (magenta).
- App icon: window title bar / taskbar / exe now use Choco_256x256.ico
(embedded via AppAssets); title bar shows ETTerms Version vX.Y.Z.
- About page: large Choco icon (Zoom, no crop).
- Docs: ARCHITECTURE.md + CLAUDE.md mark Phase 9 done; docs/serial-mcp-guide.md.
