Story

New Features

• Add tools for creating and listing managed Git worktrees from trusted local projects when the worktrees feature is enabled. (#50148)
• Pin tasks in the agent Command Center with p and keep them in a shared Pinned group when supported by the server. (#51500)
• Navigate and copy transcript blocks with /copy, use Ctrl+Insert to copy selections, and tune mouse-wheel scrolling with tui.mouse_scroll_speed. (#50434, #50215, #50209)
• Make URLs clickable in approval headers, questions, MCP prompts, warnings, banners, and verification prompts, including when links wrap across lines. (#51439, #51449, #51450, #51451, #51452, #51458)
• Configure live web access and remote compaction capabilities for custom Responses-compatible model providers. (#50459)
• Add JavaScript helpers for streaming promise results as they settle, plus opt-in ranked tool search in Code Mode. (#51126, #51209)

Bug Fixes

• Respect server model and reasoning-summary defaults for new TUI threads while retaining explicit launch overrides. (#50013, #50811, #50913)
• Preserve existing CRLF line endings in apply_patch updates without requiring an opt-in. (#51203)
• Fix Linux sandbox startup with multiple denied files, reject writable sandbox-construction executables, and keep ripgrep configuration from weakening deny-glob masks. (#50059, #51211, #51407, #51527)
• Restore ordinary drive-letter file access on Windows 10 and match Windows sandbox temp permissions to the child process environment. (#51511, #51512)
• Honor server Retry-After advice for retryable Responses and WebSocket failures. (#50418, #51440)
• Fix archive checksum verification when installing through Windows PowerShell with PowerShell 7 module paths present. (#51257)

Chores

• Publish a signed PowerShell installer with Windows releases. (#51158)
• Keep older stable releases and prereleases from replacing newer stable download targets or installer aliases. (#51186, #51425)
