Summary

This release introduces significant new capabilities, including OAuth2 Authorization Code support for A2A agents and customizable keyboard shortcuts. Key fixes address stability issues like preventing prompt jumping and race conditions during retries. Users will also benefit from new Vim mode motions and improved reporting of per-model token usage in stream-json output.

New Features

  • Added specific tracking IDs for GitHub Actions, including PR, issue, and custom tracking IDs.
  • Introduced OAuth2 Authorization Code authentication provider for A2A agents.
  • Enabled visibility for the /tools list command in the TUI, aligning it with other subcommand patterns.
  • Implemented support for auto-adding policies by default and scoped persistence.
  • Added per-model token usage reporting to stream-json output.
  • Removed the experimental badge for plan mode in the sidebar documentation.
  • Enabled skill activation directly via slash commands.
  • Implemented standardized normalization and streaming reassembly for A2A operations.
  • Switched the A2A tool scheduler from callback-based to event-driven architecture.
  • Implemented a speech-friendly response formatter for voice interactions.
  • Added a pulsating blue border automation overlay for the browser agent.
  • Added the ExtensionDetails dialog and support for installing extensions.
  • Implemented background process logging and cleanup routines.
  • Introduced customizable keyboard shortcuts for the CLI.
  • Added support for literal character keybindings and extended Kitty protocol keys.
  • Added missing Vim mode motions (including X, ~, r, f/F/t/T, df/dt, and related commands).
  • Implemented retry logic for fetch notifications.

  • Fixed UI rendering to prevent empty tool-group border stubs from appearing after filtering.
  • Prevented plan truncation in the approval dialog by supporting unconstrained heights.
  • Patched gaxios v7 stream corruption caused by Array.toString().

Improvements
