 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.12.0] - 2026-06-03
+
+- Mobile: added a new mobile UI as the default, with an option in Settings to switch back to the previous layout; this is the foundation for the upcoming mobile app and is available to try now.
+- Chat: added customizable draft welcome starters from commands and skills, including guided commands for planning, catch-up, debugging, and exploration.
+- Chat: assistant answers now have a dialog for starting a new session from that answer.
+- Chat/Input: queued messages no longer auto-send before the active session is ready, and thinking-variant choices are preserved for generated messages.
+- Chat/UI: markdown-rendered user messages now preserve line breaks.
+- Web/Browser: added a Browser feature for opening websites in the web app and sharing annotations with screenshots to agents.
+- Web/Remote Instances: added a headless web app mode, and remote instance switching now changes the OpenChamber API endpoint without loading the full remote UI.
+- UI/Themes: added JetBrains Light and JetBrains Dark themes, and VS Code chat colors now map more closely to the active editor theme.
+
 ## [1.11.7] - 2026-05-27
