New Features

  • Name new sessions with /new or /clear, pin important threads, and switch between side conversations without closing them.
  • Support Agent Plugins manifests, workspace plugin publishing, and additional plugin marketplaces for Amazon Bedrock and Claude Code.
  • Fork threads with paginated history, including temporary forks that do not appear in thread listings.
  • Connect app-server to remote Code Mode hosts over WebSocket.
  • Enable standalone web search for compatible custom model providers.
  • Discover executor-provided skills and securely read their associated resources, including explicitly selected skills.

Bug Fixes

  • Honor configured proxies across authentication, plugin downloads, MCP authorization, remote execution, WebSockets, redirects, and LM Studio connections.
  • Keep MCP connections and Apps tools current when authentication or configuration changes, reconnecting closed servers without restarting healthy connections.
  • Preserve submitted messages, final responses, failed-turn errors, imported timestamps, and approval settings across interruptions, replay, imports, and forks.
  • Improve terminal responsiveness and rendering, including nonblocking interrupts, keyboard handling, narrow layouts, hyperlinks, and refreshed mention results.
  • Fix Windows navigation keys, reliably terminate sandboxed process trees, and preserve proxy settings during security reviews.
  • Retain more available skills under tight context budgets and warn when skill catalogs must be truncated.

Documentation

  • Document shared HTTP-client usage, proxy-aware connection pooling, and safe outbound request handling.
  • Clarify Windows drive-letter canonicalization for PathUri values.

Chores

  • Publish release artifacts, channel metadata, and installer aliases through OpenAI-hosted release infrastructure, with GitHub fallback.
  • Sign and notarize bundled macOS helper executables before packaging.
  • Reduce app-server serialization overhead and unnecessary request-building allocations.
  • Add enterprise-plan recognition and administrator controls for in-app updates.
