Minor Changes

• #2246 303ab2c Thanks @shrey150! - browse screenshot now writes a file by default instead of printing base64 to stdout. Bare invocations save to screenshot-<yyyymmdd-hhmmss>.<type> in the current directory (with a collision counter instead of overwriting) and print { "saved": "<path>" }. A new --base64 flag preserves the legacy behavior of printing { "base64": "..." } to stdout; it is mutually exclusive with --path. --path behavior is unchanged.

  Note for scripts that parsed the bare-invocation base64 output: pass --base64 to keep the old stdout contract.

Patch Changes

• #2250 8b83bb7 Thanks @shrey150! - Fix browse skills add on Windows and bound the unbounded installer stages.

  • Quote the npx command and arguments when spawning through cmd.exe (shell: true for .cmd/.bat shims), so the default C:\Program Files\nodejs\npx.cmd path and install paths with spaces (e.g. C:\Users\First Last\...) no longer split at the space and fail with "'C:\Program' is not recognized".
  • Kill the npx skills add child after a 180s deadline (SIGTERM, then SIGKILL) and fail with a clear message and a distinct skill_install_timeout telemetry result code instead of hanging forever.
  • Bound the catalog and skill-file fetches with a 10s abort timeout, preserving the existing catalog-unavailable fallback semantics when a fetch hangs.
