- Custom agents can opt into repository instruction files (AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, CLAUDE.md) by setting
include-custom-instructions: truein their frontmatter. - Resuming an active session without plugin-directory, discovery, or working-directory overrides preserves marketplace plugins and skills after reload. Configuration read or validation failures no longer discard active plugins; missing-file and intentional-removal behavior is unchanged.
- /sandbox policy now reports local-network access using your configured setting
- The status row now says it is waiting for background shells, instead of "Working", when a turn ends while an attached background shell such as a dev server is still running.
- Resume sessions even when transcript files contain recoverable corruption
- Expanded reasoning text in the compact timeline is no longer dimmed, so it is as readable as the rest of the timeline.
- Autopilot stops after accepted task completion instead of continuing unexpectedly
