Bohdan Triapitsyn d9b9c8edab feat(changelog): one source file per release, generated outputs
Release notes now live in changelog/<version>.md (front matter with
version and date, then ## App and ## VS Code sections grouped into
New, Improvements, Fixes, Misc) plus changelog/unreleased.md for what
has not shipped. `bun run changelog:build` renders CHANGELOG.md,
packages/vscode/CHANGELOG.md, and changelog/index.json from them;
`changelog:check` fails when the outputs are behind and runs in CI and
in release:prepare. `oc-dev create-release` promotes unreleased.md to
the versioned file dated today and rebuilds.

The existing history was split mechanically: every bullet kept, sorted
into groups by keyword, five hand-typed headers with one-digit days
normalised to YYYY-MM-DD (the update dialog matched none of them). The
generated files keep today's release headers, which the update dialog,
the release workflow, and the website match by regex.

App

New

  • Terminal: rebuilt terminal sessions across the Web, Desktop, and Mobile apps with faster rendering, retained scrollback after reconnecting, shell and login-shell selection, restart and selected-output attachment actions, live theme changes, and more accurate Unicode and full-screen app rendering. Mobile now includes a full-screen terminal workspace with touch scrolling and selection, quick keys, and Ctrl/Alt input.
  • Sessions: new drafts and sessions now stay with the project selected in the sidebar, including workspaces with nested or sibling projects (thanks to @bashrusakh).

Improvements

  • Settings: pages now use a consistent responsive layout, navigation is grouped into OpenChamber, Workspace, OpenCode, and Library sections, and save failures are shown in the page header. Agent tool permissions now distinguish inherited and explicit rules and show session-granted rules separately (thanks to @makeittech).
  • Session goals: audits now wait while direct subagents are still active, and goal details show the model used for the latest successful evaluation.
  • Small Model: provider API keys referenced through environment variables or files now work for summaries, goal audits, and other Small Model features; Gemini 3 Flash models now use their supported thinking setting.
  • VSCode: per-session permission auto-accept works again, persists across extension restarts, and applies to subagent sessions while an OpenChamber view is open.
  • Mobile/Android: update downloads now select an APK when a release also includes an Android App Bundle.

Fixes

  • Pinned messages: pin important user or assistant messages to restore their text to the agent after conversation compaction.
  • Chat: if creating a session fails, the new-session draft stays open and restores the submitted prompt instead of discarding it.

VS Code

New

  • Sessions: new drafts and sessions now stay with the workspace selected in the sidebar, including multi-root and nested workspace setups (thanks to @bashrusakh).

Improvements

  • Settings: pages now use a consistent responsive layout, navigation is grouped by area, and save failures are shown in the page header. Agent tool permissions now distinguish inherited and explicit rules and show session-granted rules separately (thanks to @makeittech).
  • Permissions: per-session auto-accept works again, persists across extension restarts, and applies to subagent sessions while an OpenChamber view is open.

Fixes

  • Chat: if creating a session fails, the new-session draft stays open and restores the submitted prompt instead of discarding it.
