Improved

  • Agent model awareness — agent now reports which model is powering it when asked
  • Input navigation — Ctrl+A/E cycle through visual lines in wrapped input; Home/End navigate within a visual line; Ctrl+Home/End jump to text boundaries

Fixed

  • /plugin marketplace add and /plugin install now support local paths containing spaces
