title: OAuth provider sign-in works again
---

## App

### New
- **Sessions:** an archived session can be restored to the active list, from the sidebar context menu, the archived-sessions page or the bulk-selection bar. Permanent deletion is no longer the only option (thanks to @makeittech).
- Chat: Ctrl/Cmd+L adds the selected text to the chat input, or focuses the input when nothing is selected. The toggle-sidebar shortcut moved to Ctrl/Cmd+Alt+L.

### Improvements
- Providers: an OAuth-only provider shows a Connect flow in place of the API key form, and its models appear once you are signed in.
- Providers: a sign-in that needs extra details, such as GitHub Copilot Enterprise, asks for them before it opens the browser.

### Fixes
- **Providers:** signing in to an OAuth-only provider completes. The browser login is stored and the provider list updates, so you are no longer left signed out.
- Providers: the copy button for device codes works.
- Chat: a model you chose by hand stays selected after a delegated subtask finishes; it no longer reverts to the agent's default model.
- Walkthrough: models without a working provider login are gone from the walkthrough picker, and Generate stays disabled until you pick a usable model, so it no longer fails with a raw provider error.
- Walkthrough: connecting to a server older than the app says the server needs updating instead of showing a raw HTML parsing error. The "Critical" tag is now "Key change" with a tooltip, so it no longer reads as a problem found in your code.
- Agents/CLI: a prompt that never reaches its session is reported as failed, and an unavailable model, agent or variant is rejected with a clear error before anything is created.
- Desktop/Linux: "Open in Terminal" no longer launches a non-terminal app that is set as the terminal launcher (thanks to @kydorn).
