Title
Onboarding & Certificate-restart UI hidden behind “Option” key


Description
Sprinkles’ “Onboarding” (reset) flow and the ability to restart/remove certificates are only accessible by holding ⌥ when opening the menu. If the server crashes or certificates fail, there’s no visible way to recover without that hidden shortcut.


Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch Sprinkles.
  2. Make server crash or fail to start somehow (I don't know what happened exactly).
  3. Attempt to Restart Certificates → app quits immediately.
  4. Relaunch and open menu normally → no “Onboarding” or “Reset” option.
  5. Relaunch and hold ⌥ (Option) before opening menu → “Onboarding” appears.
  6. uninstall (remove all app related files; didn't remove old certificate) → starting app again repeats issue
  • No visible “Onboarding” or “Reset certificates” option in the UI.
  • Restarting certs crashes/quits the app.
  • Only workaround is holding ⌥ to reveal hidden 'onboarding' menu item.

Expected behavior

  • “Onboarding” (reset) and “Restart certificates” should always be visible in Settings or main menu.
  • If cert restart fails, app should show an error with a clear “Reset” button.

Environment

  • Sprinkles version: v 1.2.1
  • macOS 15.4.1

Suggestion
Expose the reset/onboarding flow. It would be good if app is proactive when server stops.
