2026-07-01 - Add support for the kimi-k2.7-code model - The focused field in the /mcp config form is marked with a "❯ " chevron, not color alone - Keep IDE tools available during transient IDE disconnects, returning a clear error while disconnected and recovering automatically when the IDE reconnects - Tab completion shows slash command aliases inline (e.g. /pr automerge|agentmerge) - Stop hooks from erroring and denying every tool when a session's working directory or git worktree has been deleted - Keep the footer model status in sync when reasoning effort or context tier changes - Avoid duplicate skill and command parse errors from symlinked scan roots - Update the Sessions sidebar branch after /cd and /worktree - Find agents and instructions under Win32 extended-length paths on Windows - Show descriptions for slash-command input choices - Prevent terminal corruption when copying selected timeline text on macOS - Fold symlinked sandbox paths into a single row - Browse, resume, and switch between sessions from the agents screen - Code review retries transient git failures when gathering changes - Skip malformed plugin manifests and keep loading valid plugins - Show plan budget details in the statusline and /usage for supported plans - Render Thai and Devanagari text correctly in clipped output - Keep file edits and patches within the sandbox filesystem policy - Preserve wrapped OSC 8 hyperlink IDs in terminal output - Let device-managed settings override server-managed settings - Keep embedded /skill tokens in skill prompt context - Let git commands work from repo subdirectories in the sandbox - PowerShell variable references no longer trigger content-policy refusals - Tell the agent when the working directory changes between turns so it uses the new directory for commands and relative paths - Default to a steady vertical-bar cursor in interactive sessions - Disable cursor blinking at startup without changing cursor shape - Reject sandbox path edits that conflict with symlinks in other lists - Keep the status line visible when the slash-command picker opens - Custom agents keep their tool filters in nested subagents - Preserve multibyte characters (emoji, accents, non-Latin text) in the /diagnose session log excerpt
