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

  • UI: update dialog now includes the changelog.
  • Terminal: added optional on-screen key bar (Esc/Ctrl/arrows/Enter) for easier terminal navigation.
  • Notifications: added "Notify for subtasks" toggle to silence child-session notifications during multi-run (thanks to @Jovines).
  • Worktrees: starting new worktree sessions now defaults to HEAD when no start point is provided.
  • Git: commit message generation now includes untracked files and handles git diff --no-index comparisons reliably (thanks to @MrLYC).

Improvements

  • Mobile: revamped chat controls on small screens with a unified controls drawer (thanks to @nelsonPires5).
  • Reliability: improved event-stream reconnection when the app becomes visible again.
  • Desktop: improved macOS window chrome and header spacing, including steady traffic lights on older macOS versions (thanks to @yulia-ivashko).

Fixes

  • Chat: added Stop button to cancel generation mid-response.

VS Code

New

  • Chat: added Apply Patch tool support for opening files in editor.

Improvements
