Starface requires every contact to be assigned to a tag.
- Load tag IDs when fetching address books (folder/all for central,
folder/private for personal)
- Include tags array in POST /contacts body
- Debug log all discovered tags for troubleshooting
Important: Existing profiles need to reload address books (edit
profile -> load address books -> save) to pick up the tag IDs.

Log the full request body and response when POST /contacts fails
so we can see why new contacts are not being created.

Read mapping: Match by 'name' field instead of 'displayKey' because
many fields use USER_DEFINED as displayKey (street, city, state,
comment). Actual name fields: firstname, familyname, company, phone,
mobile, homephone, fax, e-mail, url, comment, street, city, postcode,
state, country.
Write mapping: Use correct 4-block structure (contact, address,
telephone, email) with proper resourceKey values matching the
Starface internal format.

The contacts list endpoint only returns summaryValues/phoneNumbers.
Now fetch each contact individually via GET /contacts/{id} to get
all fields (blocks/attributes). Also log the detail JSON structure
so we can verify the field mapping is correct.

Logs the first contact from Starface API response into the sync
log so we can see the actual JSON structure and fix field mapping.

Starface API:
- Handle both array and object responses from /contacts endpoint
- Try common wrapper fields (items, contacts, data, results)
Outlook contacts:
- Add FindFolderByPath that matches exact FolderPath property
- Fallback to Namespace.Folders navigation if store lookup fails
- Fallback: try reading contact fields even if Class != 40
- Add debug logging for folder path and item count

Replace the Office Web Add-in with a native Windows application.
The web add-in required Exchange/M365 for registration which is
not available in all customer environments (standalone Office,
POP/IMAP only).
The new app:
- Uses COM Interop to access Outlook contacts directly
- Communicates with Starface REST API (accepts self-signed certs)
- Runs as System Tray app with optional auto-sync
- Profile-based config stored in %AppData%
- No webserver, no certificates, no Exchange, no M365 needed
- Inno Setup installer for clean MSI-style deployment
- Works with any Outlook version (Classic and New)
