TL;DR

• MCP server improvements: session loading, error surfacing, list selection fixes
• Better keyboard support: Page Up/Down, Ctrl+Z suspend/resume, Ctrl+D exit on empty prompt

New

• IDE file selection indicator — Status bar now shows when you're connected to an IDE and selecting files.
• Repo-level validation settings — Disable individual validation tools at the repository level.
• ACP server session loading — ACP server can now load existing sessions.
• Page Up/Page Down scrolling — Keyboard navigation in alt-screen mode.
• Ctrl+Z suspend/resume — Unix platform support for suspending and resuming the CLI.
• Tilde expansion in MCP — MCP server cwd configuration now supports ~ expansion.
• Ctrl+N and Ctrl+P alternatives — Use these as arrow key substitutes.
• Ctrl+D exit — Exit the CLI with Ctrl+D when the prompt is empty.

Improved

• Shell mode access — Removed from Shift+Tab cycle; access it only via ! prefix.
• /tasks dialog — Consistent icons and typography.
• Alt-screen exit — No longer replays full session history when exiting.
• MCP server errors — Errors and loading issues now surface in the timeline for better visibility.
• Input smoothness — Frame coalescing and smoother alt-screen animations reduce jitter.
• Skill name validation — Now supports underscores, dots, and spaces; name and description are optional in skill frontmatter with sensible defaults.

Fixed

• --no-warnings error — Fixed unknown option error.
• Shift+Enter newlines — Now inserts newlines correctly in terminals with kitty keyboard protocol.
• MCP server list selection — Adjusts correctly after deletion.
