• Open Prime Agent in a fresh chat by default, creating the daemon session lazily and cleaning up empty chats on exit.
• Persist the selected model across updates and default Prime Inference to Claude Opus 4.8.
• Upgrade the long-lived daemon automatically when Prime Agent self-updates, so a new TUI no longer attaches to a stale daemon and appears stuck.
• Add daemon shutdown --all to stop every daemon on the machine, including wedged ones.
• Record git repo URL, branch, and commit in session traces.
• Open the chat directly when sending a message from the Agents View.
