Highlights

• Replay-safe session recovery: interrupted sessions now retain recovery provenance and unfinished tool outcomes, stopped conversations retire terminal recovery residue before accepting the next message, rejected Claude CLI drafts stay out of final replies, large child-completion batches stay within requester context, and Codex previews no longer block replies after a context refresh. (#153728, #168764, #172068, #177716, #176682, #176783, #176675, #159715, #181801) Thanks @zhangguiping-xydt, @ruel225, @Oliver4Spot, @jjjhenriksen, @enki, @PennyVibe, @mbelinky, @RomneyDa, and @krjcolby-svg.
• Safer update activation and recovery: verified activations remain successful through later maintenance or ledger errors, interrupted package updates resume safely, post-activation Doctor waits are bounded, stale receipts cannot veto a valid repair, and Windows deep or 8.3 state paths no longer abort onboarding or migration. (#181166, #181307, #173862, #167459, #172768, #172769, #181389) Thanks @najef1979-code, @agroman1993, @shanselman, @RomneyDa, @dor-sr, @wangmiao0668000666, and @brucemccurdy.
• Database and worker continuity: maintenance refusals preserve peer readers and borrowers, incompatible retained agent databases stay isolated, empty transcript deletions skip unnecessary archive materialization, Bun admission deadlines remain thread-local, and worker shutdown completes after inventory retirement. (#175987, #179320, #170122, #171372, #172756, #168862) Thanks @LifeViwer, @Captain69G, @RomneyDa, @shanselman, @dor-sr, @wangmiao0668000666, and @brucemccurdy.
• Backup and state durability: snapshots retain supported legacy exec-approval policies, interrupted R2 verification and restores resume safely, config observation keeps the last-known-good snapshot during truncated writes, failed multi-file patches preserve earlier files, and Memory Wiki re-imports preserve human-authored notes. (#164297, #171292, #152565, #160409, #175707) Thanks @wangmiao0668000666, @davidcittadini, @LiuwqGit, @yetval, @masatohoshino, @YangManBOBO, @RomneyDa, @shanselman, @dor-sr, @cristianoc, and @brucemccurdy.
• Operator control continuity: native computer control recovers after session expiry, late-attached GitHub operators can publish PRs, synchronous node output is not duplicated as a completion wake, cron announcements preserve CLI chats, and history maintenance reads identities before payloads. (#169385, #169400, #164511, #176218, #174530) Thanks @stackingrockss, @Gigaxel, @holgergruenhagen, @eliavb43, @wangmiao0668000666, @asikorskiy, and @RomneyDa.
• Provider and plugin continuity: model refresh, configured-account readiness, GPT-5.6 tool turns, OpenRouter onboarding, incremental plugin loading, and faster external TypeScript plugin startup retain current state instead of rejecting valid setup or discarding providers. (#176709, #178522, #173366, #173292, #162226, #161267, #168391) Thanks @ericcaiwx-star, @eduardonunesfreire-rgb, @chandraveshchaudhari, @netcrazed, @obviyus, @jakeaadams, and @RomneyDa.
• Managed integration reliability: saved Linux Gateway dashboards preserve pairing across restarts, slow macOS Talk runs retain their replies, app upgrades converge official plugins, Copilot setup verifies SDK-backed agents correctly, Claude CLI cache prefixes stay stable after child completion and retain context when caller-only tools appear or disappear, and passkey prompts no longer block headless browser clicks. (#158908, #164485, #174257, #163578, #172026, #178955, #170857) Thanks @dor-sr, @PollyBot13, @kazuyuki-eguchi, @lifuyue, @Marvinthebored, @VACInc, @trukhinyuri, @Peetiegonzalez, @RomneyDa, @shanselman, @wangmiao0668000666, @brucemccurdy, and @rsaeks.
• Cross-platform app-managed upgrades: native state repair, recovery snapshots, Gateway runtime admission, and post-upgrade service recovery now converge without losing agent access across macOS and Windows. (#171508, #174297, #175007, #176174, #178155, #178779, #180010, #180576, #180769) Thanks @tjarrau-dev, @DonnieFi, @jayzhou2309, @lostsock1, @sglion777, @Almost-Certified-ops, @billpang1-sketch, and @RomneyDa.

Changes

• Google models: add Gemini 4 Argon support. (#171852) Thanks @RomneyDa.

Fixes

• Update guidance: avoid irrelevant database-repair advice when a package manager is missing, and remove superseded warnings after a successful update. (#173293, #173395) Thanks @DonnieFi, @RomneyDa, @wangmiao0668000666, @sunlit-deng, and @bhedanikhilkumar-code.
• macOS onboarding: allow fresh profiles to start the Gateway and complete automatic setup. (#173246) Thanks @RomneyDa.
• Gateway logging: prevent a deleted or stale temporary log directory from wedging the Gateway at full CPU during date rollover. (#160433) Fixes #130807 Thanks @masatohoshino, @WadeOwenWatts, and @RomneyDa.
• Control UI queue state: clear slash-steer chips after the queued command is consumed. (#180024) Thanks @RomneyDa.
