Today’s GAPP is a Slash Pack! Not much else to say, have fun!

Rules: Place a diagonal line into some empty cells dividing the grid into regions. Each region must contain every number from 1 to N exactly once, where N is the highest clue value in the grid. Each end of a diagonal line must connect either to the end of at least one other diagonal line or to the grid border (i.e. there can be no 'hanging ends').

Interface Note: You can right click and drag across a diagonal to make an auxiliary marking, which may be useful!

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition Monday double-ping! Here is a walkthrough for last week's GAPP #1000: https://youtu.be/5fAMQuvamsE
The video goes over both the example and the main puzzle, and at the end I talk a bit about the construction process. There are timestamps in the description.
