The record

Product: StreamLight is a Moonlight fork with a gamepad-first interface and native integration with the StreamTweak host companion.
Compatibility: It supports Windows 10 and 11 and works with Sunshine, Apollo, Vibeshine, and Vibepollo hosts.
Streaming: Its streaming engine uses upstream Moonlight components including FFmpeg, D3D11VA, DXVA2, libplacebo, and moonlight-common-c.
Interface: The interface is designed for gamepad navigation, with keyboard access and configurable shortcuts.
Stream controls: While streaming, users can change resolution, frame rate, bitrate, HDR, and frame pacing; custom resolutions and frame rates are supported.
Profiles: Users can create up to three named profiles per host and set per-game overrides.
Host integration: Paired StreamTweak features include host metrics in the overlay, game-store badges, session quality reports, remote power controls, and remote Windows Update.
Integrations: The README names Steam, Epic, GOG, Ubisoft, Xbox, Battle.net, and EA App for store badges, and Philips Hue Sync as an optional client integration.
Remote access: Tailscale integration can track LAN and Tailscale addresses for a host on one tile and optionally use the Tailscale endpoint.
Security: The StreamLight–StreamTweak bridge signs commands with the client’s Moonlight identity certificate, and the host approves a client once using a four-digit PIN.
Clipboard: Optional shared clipboard transfers text up to 32 KB using a key that lasts one stream; copied passwords are cleared on the receiving side within 60 seconds.
Notable limits: PyroWave requires a Vibeshine or Vibepollo 2.0 host and a wired network with hundreds of Mbps of bandwidth.
Install and updates: The README directs users to download the latest installer from GitHub Releases and says in-app updates check downloads against a GitHub checksum.
License: StreamLight is released under the GPL v3 License.
