Before deleting anything, uninstall.sh / uninstall.ps1 now send ONE
best-effort `app_uninstalled` event — but only when the user opted in:
consent is read from the same prefs.json the app writes, AND the ping needs
the backend-written analytics_info.json (present only while analytics is
enabled — consent + build token — and removed on opt-out), because the
generic scripts ship no token of their own. Payload is content-free: app
version, OS name, random per-install id. 2-second timeout, silent failure,
one honest console line ('Sending anonymous uninstall ping (you opted in to
analytics).'); not opted in => nothing sent, nothing printed, and the
dry-run never sends either way.
Tested by exercising the bash script for real (fake $HOME + a curl shim
recording argv: consented/not-consented/dry-run/missing-info flows, plus
data-still-deleted-after-ping) and by static contract checks on the ps1
(consent gate, TimeoutSec 2, try/catch, no baked token). docs/install/
uninstall.md documents the behavior (docs-sync).
