 ## [Unreleased]
 
-- **Chat: /btw side questions.** Type `/btw` followed by your question to ask something off-topic in a temporary session forked from the current conversation, so it inherits the full context but leaves the chat itself untouched. The answer streams into a panel above the composer, which talks to that session while the panel is open; you can collapse it to a slim header bar, keep it as a full session, or discard it. The temporary session stays out of the sidebar and session lists until you keep it (thanks to @jaygupta17).

 - **Chat sessions:** start chats without choosing a project. They live in their own Chats section, rather than inheriting a project's repository and worktree context.
 - **Desktop/Remote instances:** adding an SSH connection now starts from the hosts in your SSH config instead of a blank command field. Ports, install method and passwords moved behind Advanced settings, and each connection shows Connected, Connecting, or Needs attention with the failure text and a button that resolves it.
 - Desktop/Remote instances: connecting to a remote machine now works when bun, OpenChamber or the opencode CLI live in your home directory rather than on the system path. Installing no longer fails with a permission error, and a missing opencode CLI is now reported before the connection starts instead of as a stack trace.
