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

  • Chat: added user-message display controls for plain-text rendering and sticky headers.
  • Chat: model picker now supports collapsible provider groups and remembers expanded state between sessions.

Improvements

  • Chat/UI: overhauled the context panel with reusable tabs and embedded session chat (beta).
  • Git: refined Git sidebar tab behavior and spacing, plus bulk-revert with confirmations for easier cleanup.
  • Settings: reorganized chat display settings into a more compact two-column layout.

Fixes

  • Chat: improved code block presentation with cleaner action alignment, restored horizontal scrolling, and polished themed highlighting across chat messages and tool output (thanks to @nelsonPires5).
  • Diff: added quick open-in-editor actions from diff views that jump to the first changed line.
  • Git: fixed commit staging edge cases by filtering stale deleted paths before staging.
  • Git/Worktrees: restored branch rename/edit controls in draft sessions when working in a worktree directory.
  • Mobile/UI: fixed session-title overflow in compact headers (thanks to @iamhenry).
