What's in it

Found by driving real nectra chat sessions against Claude Code 2.1.302, Codex 0.162.1 and Gemini CLI 0.26.0:

• Provider prompts are no longer hidden. Folder-trust questions, sign-in screens and approval prompts used to sit behind a ticking "Working…" in the default view, so a new project could appear to hang forever. When a provider goes quiet mid-turn, Nectra now shows its screen with WAITING FOR YOU. Pressing F2 still switches back and forth, and a message you're typing stays in Nectra's queue.
• Codex works in the terminal view again. Codex 0.162 reports its own thread-title request as a finished turn, and Nectra was saving {"title":…} as the answer before the real work ran. Only the reply to Nectra's own prompt counts now.
• Startup errors are shown. A provider that exits before answering, for example because of a rejected setting, now shows its own error instead of "no completed answer was captured".
• New: nectra skills. Claude Code, Codex and Gemini read skills from different folders, so a skill one of them has comes and goes as Nectra routes between them. nectra skills shows which CLI sees each skill. nectra skills --link links your user skills between ~/.claude/skills and ~/.agents/skills so all three see them; it never replaces anything.
