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

  • System prompt optimization: added an optional Behavior setting that reduces OpenCode's built-in system prompt by about 40% for the build and plan agents; it applies after restarting OpenCode and is unsuitable for custom build or plan definitions.

Improvements

  • Chat: slash-command starters now include text already entered in the draft as command arguments.
  • Session goals: goals started from slash commands, including scheduled tasks, now use the command's expanded instructions.
  • Usage: OpenAI business-account Codex usage now shows the configured spend limit (thanks to @jrandiny).
  • Desktop/Linux: AppImage tray menus now include Show, Hide, and Close, and "Open in" shows system application icons (thanks to @makeittech).
  • Mobile: image previews load when connected through the private relay.

Fixes

  • Chat tools: Bash tool cards now show output before a command finishes, keep it in a fixed-height pane, and follow new lines until you scroll away. Long-running commands no longer remain at a 300-second duration, and their timers continue until they finish.
  • OpenCode: chats now recover when OpenCode stops responding during a response, and managed OpenCode no longer restarts repeatedly during a temporary connectivity failure.
  • Desktop: bundled OpenCode no longer offers a separate update; it updates with OpenChamber (thanks to @yulia-ivashko).
  • Chat: fully loaded histories no longer show "Load older" again after a refresh.
  • Chat: messages removed by reverting no longer reappear after you send another message.
  • Settings: subpanels keep a visible vertical scrollbar and no longer show a horizontal scrollbar (thanks to @sergiofspedro).

VS Code

New

  • OpenCode updates: the extension can now update a managed OpenCode installation and restart it automatically; externally managed servers are left unchanged (thanks to @yulia-ivashko).

Improvements

  • Chat: slash-command starters now include text already entered in the draft as command arguments.
  • Usage: OpenAI business-account Codex usage now shows the configured spend limit (thanks to @jrandiny).

  • Chat: a stalled response now reconnects instead of remaining stuck in the extension.
  • Chat: fully loaded histories no longer show "Load older" again after a refresh.
  • Chat: messages removed by reverting no longer reappear after you send another message.
  • Settings: subpanels keep a visible vertical scrollbar and no longer show a horizontal scrollbar (thanks to @sergiofspedro).
