 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.9.7] - 2026-04-22
+
+- Desktop: added an Electron desktop runtime in parallel with the current Tauri app, with Electron planned to become the default path in an upcoming release.
+- Plans/Notes/Todos: added editable project plans from assistant messages, external plan upload, configurable planning magic prompts, and quicker note/todo handoff into new sessions or worktrees.
+- Chat/Files: you can now drag files and folders from the file tree into chat, with improved `@folder` autocomplete for faster context building (thanks to @youfch).
+- Sessions/UI: added bulk session selection in the sidebar and fixed pinned sessions so they persist reliably after reloads (thanks to @yart).
+- Files/Git: added a file-change summary bar and auto-refresh for open files changed outside the app, improving review flow and keeping editors in sync (thanks to @jwcrystal).
+- Git/Worktrees: improved branch/worktree reliability by allowing checkout with uncommitted changes, tightening worktree cache invalidation, and reducing incorrect remote prefetches (thanks to @jwcrystal, @jasonalsing).
+- Settings/MCP: improved MCP auth flow with better remote-config support and clearer diagnostics, and aligned config resolution with OpenCode behavior for more predictable setup (thanks to @daveotero, @cyan).
+- Reliability/Chat: hardened bootstrap and stream-connection recovery, preserved session/connect state more reliably, and reduced streaming UI churn for smoother long runs.
+- Web/PWA: added install orientation controls and fixed loopback-origin handling for web push notifications in local setups (thanks to @vhqtvn, @yart).

 ## [1.9.5] - 2026-04-14
 
 - Security/Auth: added passkey sign-in for protected instances and new 1-week/30-day session expiration options, so teams can enforce stronger access controls with flexible login persistence (thanks to @daveotero, @pm0u).

 - Docker/Deployments: improved container defaults for broader compatibility, including UID 1000 user behavior, non-fatal SSH key generation, and better localhost detection in container networking (thanks to @yulia-ivashko).
 - Web/PWA: fixed manifest behavior behind Cloudflare Access so install flows work more reliably in protected environments (thanks to @arthurfiorette).

 ## [1.9.1] - 2026-03-20
 
 - Sessions/UI: restored Project Notes access in the sidebar, polished notes/todo editing, and fixed project action overlap so project controls stay reachable for non-git directories.
