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** — Show the live work progress of background subagents in the /tasks panel
- **added** — Image and video tool results now open in a fullscreen preview on click, with zoom support for images
- **changed** — Detect MCP servers that require OAuth without needing auth: "oauth" in the config
- **changed** — Reduce UI stutter while AI responses stream in long sessions
- **changed** — Add hover tooltips to icon-only buttons
- **changed** — Add breathing room around the fullscreen image preview so images no longer touch the screen edges
- **changed** — Unify the fullscreen image and video previews with a shared circular close button and the same background overlay
- **changed** — Page the /sessions picker list so it opens fast with large session counts
- **changed** — Widen the sidebar's minimum draggable width
- **changed** — Reduce memory and CPU usage when the app stays open for a long time
- **changed** — Show retry progress in the loading indicator when a model request fails and is retried, with the attempt count and a detail line for the provider error
- **fixed** — Fix the token counts reported after compaction reading far below the real context size; they now match the numbers shown while the session runs
- **fixed** — Fix multi-select "Other" options so they can be deselected after being committed
- **fixed** — Fix multi-second freezes at startup or while idle when a large search index loads, replays, or rebuilds
- **fixed** — Show a clear error message on Windows when Git for Windows is not installed, instead of exiting silently
- **fixed** — Close a Windows binary-planting gap in the footer git status: the git and gh commands used for the branch/dirty badge are now resolved to an absolute PATH location, so an executable planted in an untrusted workspace can no longer run before the workspace trust prompt
- **fixed** — Fix subagent tool changes in one session leaking into builtin profiles in later sessions
- **fixed** — Fix a spurious "Failed to steer" error when sending a message while a goal run is between turns
