What's New is an index, not a publisher: every entry below links to the vendor's own release notes, which are the authoritative source. Entries are labelled where they are hand-curated sample data, pre-releases, or drawn from a secondary source such as a developer blog.

Reuse: the summaries, labels and curation here are © What's New. Quote freely with attribution and a link back; wholesale republication of the corpus is not permitted — terms: https://whatsnew.fyi/terms. The vendors' own release notes remain their publishers'.

---

- **added** — Add an environment variable to cap AgentSwarm concurrency during the initial ramp, so large swarms do not trip provider rate limits as easily
- **added** — Add instant session search to the web sidebar, filtering by title and the last user prompt
- **added** — Add scroll-up lazy loading for older messages in the web chat session view
- **added** — Show the connected server version in the web settings General tab
- **changed** — Redesign the web OAuth login dialog: lead with a single "Authorize in browser" button that opens the verification link with the device code already embedded, demote manual code entry to a clearly secondary fallback, and drop the duplicate open-browser and cancel controls so the order of steps is unambiguous
- **changed** — Allow long web slash command names and descriptions to wrap without overflowing the slash menu
- **fixed** — Fix the web workspace session count so it drops to 0 after archiving the last session instead of staying at 1
- **fixed** — Fix the web login slash command description to match the browser authorization flow
- **fixed** — Fix the "new messages" pill overlapping the composer dock
- **fixed** — Fix the web app only loading the 20 most recent sessions; it now follows pagination so older sessions are reachable
- **fixed** — Keep the highlighted web slash command visible while navigating a long slash menu
- **fixed** — Fix web slash skill selection sending immediately and allow slash search to match skill names by substring
- **changed** — Suggest `/reload` alongside `/new` in plugin-change hints
