Bongo Penguin Counter applet for COSMIC. Counts global keyboard and mouse events via /dev/input/event* and animates a bouncing penguin in the panel. AES-encrypted persistence using a host-derived key. Wayland-only, requires the host user to be in the input group for evdev access. Pinned to upstream v0.1.1 (commit 9b6a4ec).

Summary
Adds the Bongo Penguin Counter applet for COSMIC — a panel applet that counts global keyboard and mouse events and animates a bouncing penguin synced to the input rate.
v0.1.1, commit9b6a4ecdfa0e91e57a57e9814388a26f71c5de14flatpak-builderagainstorg.freedesktop.{Platform,Sdk}//25.08,org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.rust-stable//25.08, andcom.system76.Cosmic.BaseApp//stable.Notable manifest details
--socket=wayland, nofallback-x11).--device=allbecause evdev needs/dev/input/event*. The host user must be in theinputgroup for the counter to advance — Flatpak cannot grant kernel groups, and an in-app banner explains the fix-up for users who land in this state.count.dat, key derived from/etc/machine-id. Inside the sandbox the path resolves to~/.var/app/io.github.yockerfx.CosmicAppletBongoPenguin/data/. The derived key differs from a.debinstall (Flatpak fakes the machine-id), so previously-saved counters from a.debwill not decrypt and the code falls back cleanly to `0`.Test plan
