- MCP add/edit form accepts HTTP-style
Key: valueheaders - Keep LSP servers from starting twice during startup

- Show the correct session age when filesystem birthtime is missing
- Prevent duplicate final assistant messages for GPT models
- Terminal title updates work in more terminals
- Show a (sandboxed) badge on compact Search timeline entries

- Let grep and glob retry blocked searches after sandbox approval
- Format terminal titles with the session title and GitHub Copilot suffix
- Skip synchronized output under tmux to avoid mouse pointer flicker
- Session limits now apply across the current conversation, reset on /clear, and use the sessionLimits option key.
- Hide excluded built-in agents from agent selection
- BYOK sessions using Anthropic models no longer hit HTTP 400 errors from adaptive-thinking mismatches — neither from injecting adaptive thinking on models that don't support it, nor from sending standard thinking to models that require adaptive. Thinking-mode selection for dual-mode models is unchanged.
- Allow skills with the same name from different plugins to coexist
- Let integrations read and write CLI user settings
- View LSP server logs in /lsp logs and read_agent
- Prompt to install gh CLI when it is missing in GitHub repositories
- Add GitHub attachment variants to prompt rendering
- Extension toggles preserve the selected mode
- Return to the prompt after cancelling attached shell commands
- Keep background git status checks from disrupting concurrent git commands
- Recover corrupted session history on load
- Preserve newlines in /after and /every scheduled prompts
- Keep multi-line /worktree tasks intact when starting them
- Make /cd path completion keep Enter, Escape, and Tab behavior in sync
- Keep session-store searches and context lookups responsive
- Show desktop notifications on macOS from the CLI
- Paste WSL images when Windows env vars are unavailable
- Keep selection on the adjacent task after removing one
- read_agent since_turn: 0 now correctly returns all turns including turn 0
- Filter non-JSON stdout lines from MCP servers during startup
- Perform tokenizer warmup in parallel on a background thread for better startup performance
- Show submit times next to user prompts in the timeline
- Improve /share to manage synced session visibility
- Expand @-style imports in AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and Copilot instruction files
- Make /pr auto keep working through CI, review, and merge queue
- Clicking to expand a compact timeline entry holds it in place and reveals its content downward
- Configure subagent concurrency and depth limits in /settings (usage-based billing users)
- Add
/chronicle skills reviewfor reviewing proposed draft skill changes, with options to accept, reject, or defer each draft - Add desktop notifications for attention prompts and idle sessions
- Make /share use Mission Control links for session sharing
- Snapshot creation retries transient HEAD lookup failures instead of crashing
- Keep
/chronicle reindexresponsive and show progress in the timeline - Return to the last open GitHub issue, pull request, or gist view when switching tabs
- Resolve package argument placeholders when installing MCP registry entries
- Keep queued messages from getting stuck behind background work
- Retry managed settings fetch after transient connection-pool errors
- Stop showing broken-pipe errors when a sandboxed MCP server exits mid-request
- Properly recover MCP host-delegated connections when OAuth tokens expire or need broader scopes
- CLI git checks skip optional locks so status and branch lookups keep working in busy repositories
- Collapse multi-line sub-items into one inline line in compact timeline rows
- Inline hook settings now handle nested Claude-style hook groups correctly
- Keep the CLI responsive during secret filtering
- Search inputs match queries that have leading or trailing whitespace
- Keep idle agents available after you cancel a turn
- Show sandbox-bypass warnings and label bypassed commands
- /pr auto now starts a self-paced loop that fixes one thing per run and paces itself around CI to drive the PR to green; /pr automerge keeps going until the PR is merged. Manage or stop it from /loop or /every.
- Enable /rename in remote-hosted (cloud and relay) sessions
- Add toggle to enable or disable MCP servers in the CLI from MCP list view
- Add experimental response limits controls to CLI settings
- Let managed settings configure OpenTelemetry export
- MCP tools on OAuth-authenticated remote servers now recover automatically after a mid-session token expiry, matching the existing OIDC retry behaviour. A 401 during a tool call triggers a non-interactive reconnect, and servers needing interactive re-auth are retried at the start of the next turn.
- Add persisted dynamicRetrieval setting (and --dynamic-retrieval skills=<on|off> flag) to enable or disable embeddings-based retrieval of skills
- Let custom agents set reasoning effort in their definitions
- Pass a task to /worktree (e.g. 'fix the login redirect') to name the branch for that task and run the sentence as the first prompt in the new worktree
- Added runtime telemetry for the MCP host token-injection OAuth flow, recording when an OAuth broadcast is emitted to the host and how the host responds (token or cancelled) with response latency
- Show merge status for each pull request in the Pull requests tab, and refresh the cached statuses on demand by pressing r
- Fix a soft hang where the CLI stopped responding to input if a startup prompt (folder trust, screen reader, or Copilot free signup) opened while a non-Main home tab was focused
- Guide the agent to format cross-repository issue/PR references as owner/repo#number (reserving bare #number for the current repo) so they don't mislink to the current repository
- Keep /restart working when shutdown teardown takes too long
- Copy text to the clipboard on WSL when cmd.exe is not on PATH
- COPILOT_HOME and --config-dir stop loading skills from ~/.agents/skills
- Keep per-extension disabled selections when switching extension mode in /extensions
- Copying wrapped text from the scroll view keeps spacing correct
- Voice mode turns itself off when the engine fails to start at boot
- Quit cleanly with Ctrl+D during startup before authentication completes
- Keep framed user messages from clipping trailing characters at the right edge
- Inline images stop writing to the shell after exit
- Display descriptions for slash command subcommands
- Refresh MCP server headers automatically after authentication changes
- LSP commands and tools resolve project configs and server paths more reliably
- Add --allow-all-mcp-server-instructions to optionally include instructions from all MCP servers in system prompts
- Auto-accept opt-in MCP consent prompts in --yolo sessions while still showing system permission prompts
- Use the full terminal height in full-screen views
- Use clearer icons for shell and search timeline entries
- Match the terminal text color to the GitHub theme canvas
- Show the active agent mode in the working footer text
- /worktree keeps a valid branch name exactly as typed, e.g. feature/JIRA-123, instead of flattening it to a slug like feature-jira-123
- With no argument, /worktree names the branch from your uncommitted changes and recent conversation using your active model instead of a fixed small one
- Consolidate color palette settings under /settings theme
- Store CLI settings and session state more reliably
