  bar.

  scrolling and clearer branch and fork actions.

  Chrome profile.

v0.3.1

• Prevented stale model-catalog refresh requests from overwriting newer
  results, while preserving the last known-good catalog during transient
  provider failures.
• Added a Motion Primitives-style shimmer effect to the live Inspector thinking
  label, with reduced-motion support and muted theme-aware text.
• Migrated the Inspector animation dependency from Framer Motion to the
  current Motion package for future animated components.
• Added an animated thinking orb to the Inspector reasoning lane while the
  assistant is actively processing.
• Prefer GPT-5.6 Luna, Kimi K3, then Claude Sonnet 4.5 as Windie's initial
  models when they are available, with catalog fallback for other providers.
• Added built-in Kimi Code provider support through Bifrost, including API-key setup,
  model discovery, streaming chat, and tool use.
• Pinned the reviewed Kimi Code gateway integration to its merged Bifrost
  stable-branch commit.
• Redesigned the Inspector welcome page with a centered hero, clearer
  typography, and a more visible background grid.
• Added welcome-page buttons for exploring extensions and configuring LLM
  providers.
• Removed the combined onboarding overlay and made the welcome page switch to
  a new-chat action after an LLM provider and extension are both ready.
• Added bounded runtime retries for transient model-provider failures, while
  discarding failed partial assistant output and keeping retries invisible in
  the Inspector.
• Added the public release workflow guide for maintainers, including separate
  stable-branch and vendor-PR handling for Bifrost and the Inspector.
• Let the Inspector manage structured Bifrost model providers, including
  custom and local providers.
• Documented the public release workflow, including versioning, checks,
  submodule pins, pull requests, tags, and release verification.
• Added native Streamable HTTP MCP transport support with persistent sessions,
  SSE/JSON responses, 404 recovery, and safe credential handling.
• Added the curated Parallel Search MCP provider with optional Bearer
  authentication.
