AI summary
Written by AI from the official notes. Check them for exact details.New commands and flags for reasoning effort selection were added, along with model pinning and various stability improvements.
- Added
/effortcommand for reasoning effort selection. - Introduced stable model slugs for reliable model pinning.
- Redesigned
/modelpicker for better usability. - Improved
/settingspanel for better terminal compatibility. - Enhanced background task reliability and responsiveness.
Why it matters: Users who rely on model selection and stability in AI tasks will benefit from these updates.

Added /effort command and --effort flag for reasoning effort selection, stable model slugs, subagent model config, redesigned /model picker, scrollable /settings panel, and various MCP and background task fixes.
- Added a
/effortcommand to view and change the current model's reasoning effort, with a left/right timeline-gauge picker and a direct/effort <level>form so you can trade latency for depth on the fly. - Added an
--effortflag to select a model's reasoning-effort variant when launching the CLI. - Added stable, user-facing model slugs that appear in the
/modelpicker and are accepted by--model, so you can pin a specific model reliably across sessions. - Added a
modeloption to custom agent frontmatter so an agent runs at a chosen model tier (such asflashorpro) when invoked as a subagent, defaulting toinherit(the parent's model). - Redesigned the
/modelpicker to group models by their base model and choose reasoning effort from a timeline gauge navigable with Left and Right, and added an effort badge to the status line for models that expose multiple effort variants. - Improved the
/settings(/config) panel by making it a bounded, scrollable list so it renders correctly in short terminals instead of overflowing, and stopped it from flickering when opening and closing dropdowns. - Improved background-task reliability by moving long-running work onto a shared lifecycle with deterministic startup and shutdown and panic-safe launching, so a failure in one background task no longer disrupts the session and pending analytics are flushed on exit instead of dropped.
- Improved responsiveness of bursty background refreshes by coalescing rapid repeated triggers into a single run, cutting redundant work.
- Fixed a crash when triggering Authenticate on a remote MCP server in the
/mcppanel. - Fixed MCP tool results containing embedded resources being silently dropped, so text and inline media returned by MCP servers now surface in the conversation.
- Fixed permission checks splitting a single command into a pipeline when an argument contained quoted shell metacharacters (such as
--grep="a|b"), which caused spurious permission prompts. - Fixed the file-view and file-search tools failing with invalid-UTF-8 errors when a multi-byte character was split at a truncation boundary.
- Fixed a data race when collecting customization rules by guarding the shared structures.
