 - **External Folder Mounting for File Manager** ([#124](https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy/issues/124)) — Host directories (NAS shares, USB drives, network storage) can now be mounted into the File Manager without copying files. Click "Link External" to point at a Docker bind-mounted path. Files are indexed into the database on scan but accessed directly from their original location — nothing is copied. Supports read-only mode (default, blocks uploads/moves/deletes), hidden file filtering, and automatic thumbnail extraction for 3MF, STL, gcode, and image files. External folders show a distinct icon and info bar with a rescan button. Deleting an external folder only removes the database index, never the actual files. Requested by @S1N4X.
 
 ### Improved
-- **SpoolBuddy Kiosk Performance Optimizations** — Reduced CPU load on Raspberry Pi. Browser: replaced Chromium with cog (WPE WebKit), a purpose-built embedded kiosk browser with a fraction of Chromium's CPU and memory footprint. WebSocket: SpoolBuddy Dashboard and Layout pages now use React Query `select` to extract only `connected` status from printer queries, so temperature/fan/progress updates no longer trigger re-renders on every MQTT tick. Services: expanded install script stripping to disable pipewire audio stack, CUPS printing, rpcbind, upower, polkit, accounts-daemon, xdg-desktop-portal, and mpris-proxy. User-level services are masked via `systemctl --user`.
+- **SpoolBuddy Kiosk Performance Optimizations** — Reduced CPU load on Raspberry Pi. Chromium: overrides Debian's default flags via `/etc/chromium.d/spoolbuddy-kiosk` to disable GPU rasterization (falls back to CPU on Pi's VideoCore VI), enable low-end device mode (caps memory on ≤2GB Pis), and disable smooth scrolling and background networking. The system default `--enable-gpu-rasterization` was conflicting with per-launch flags — the new config replaces all system defaults.

User-level services are masked via `systemctl --user`.
 - **SpoolBuddy AMS Slot Action Picker** — Clicking an AMS slot on the SpoolBuddy AMS page now shows a picker with contextual actions: Configure AMS Slot (set filament preset, K-profile, color), and either Assign Spool / Link to Spoolman (when no spool is mapped) or Unassign / Unlink (when one is). Works with both internal inventory and Spoolman. Previously the slot click went straight to the configure modal with no way to manage spool assignments.
 - **Unassign Button in Edit Spool Modal** — The edit spool modal now has an "Unassign" button next to "Delete Tag" that removes the spool's AMS slot assignment, clearing the location column in the inventory table.
 - **SpoolBuddy Settings Device Tab No Longer Scrolls** — Removed the branding card, folded Device ID into the Device Info card, placed Backend/Auth config and diagnostic buttons side by side in a 2-column layout, removed the redundant online/offline status row from Device Info, and tightened spacing throughout. The Device tab now fits on the small SpoolBuddy touchscreen without scrolling.
