* fix(native-chat): save every chat reply and tool output whole; bound only the copy sent to clients Orca cut Codex replies, every agent's reasoning, plans, prompts and all tool output to a 16 KB head when it saved them, and threw the rest away. The limit existed so a reconnecting client is not replayed a huge row, but it was applied at save time, so every transport limit became permanent data loss. The journal now keeps what the agent said. One outbound form, applied to every history page, live batch and catch-up, sends a client the same 16 KB head of each tool output and diff it always got, and marks the item `shortened`. A new capability-gated `agentSession.item` RPC returns the whole item, and the desktop and phone show "Show full output" / "Show full message" when the copy was cut. Items past half a page are shortened and marked instead of replaced with "too large to show". Two bounds stay, both named: a 4 MiB ceiling per text (head and tail), applied where every provider's rows enter the write queue so one write can never stall a chat, and a preview on Grok/OpenCode/OMP/Pi calls while they run, whose closing row is built from the whole value the translator held. * test(native-chat): an over-budget history item is shortened and marked, not replaced * fix(native-chat): format, keep the sink and projection under the line limit, update method count and tests * fix(chat): preserve complete writes and keep detail current * test(chat): align final tail reservation with captured content * Prototype source-batch journal ownership for Claude * Pin the resolved iterator promise in ownership experiment * Revert "Pin the resolved iterator promise in ownership experiment" This reverts commitbdb49ab738. * Revert "Prototype source-batch journal ownership for Claude" This reverts commite5ed387f0c. * Preserve large received chat content while pacing input * Verify received chat writes wait for journal persistence * Close test journal databases before removing temporary roots * Exercise item detail in the cross-version chat wire manifest * Pin complete saved output and fitted client publication * Exercise Pi exit retention with real journal write pressure * Settle terminal web test unmount before DOM teardown * Reuse existing readers and contract support in session tests * Reuse measured chat item sizes in history pages * fix(chat): derive page form type from reader contract * fix(chat): open phone user messages while loading full text * test(native-chat): reuse imperative context provider construction * test(native-chat): format full-content disclosure fixture * ci: preserve unit shard diagnostics after a timeout * ci: retain unit shard output when tests time out * ci: expose unit shard watchdog and output stages * Revert "ci: expose unit shard watchdog and output stages" This reverts commit0b4991b144. * Revert "ci: retain unit shard output when tests time out" This reverts commit87eec4c04f. * Revert "ci: preserve unit shard diagnostics after a timeout" This reverts commit1888c656bb. * test: verify complete Claude tool output without large failure diffs * Simplify reply extraction in cross-version session test * Restore full message recovery for grouped phone thoughts * Target recovery button in grouped thought fixture * test(native-chat): count agentSession.item alongside main's new structured method * fix(chat): reuse strict session subscription schema * test(chat): open Codex before checking received content

Features
Also in the box:
- Quick open — Search across worktrees, files, agents, commands, and repo context without leaving your flow.
- Account switcher & usage tracking — See Claude and Codex usage and rate-limit resets, and hot-swap accounts without re-logging in.
- Rich repo previews — Preview Markdown, images, PDFs, and repo docs in the workspace.
- Computer Use — Let agents operate desktop apps and visible UI when a workflow needs real interaction.
- Notifications and unread state — Know when an agent finishes or needs attention, then mark threads unread to come back later.
- And many, many more — we ship daily, so this list is perpetually behind. The changelog is the real feature list.
