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/Localization: added a localization foundation with translated interface strings for Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Ukrainian, and Simplified Chinese.
  • Settings/Appearance: added selectable interface and code fonts with 10 choices each.
  • Chat/Workflow: added keyboard turn navigation, widened chat content, and introduced local workspace review and summarize slash commands.
  • Files/Editor: added an "Open files in preview mode" setting and improved multi-file edit/diff safety (thanks to @daveotero).
  • Desktop/Web/Mobile: improved Electron update restart behavior, PWA service-worker notifications, mobile keyboard handling, and the Add Project panel flow (thanks to @Jovines, @vhqtvn).

Improvements

  • Chat/Mobile: improved mention and autocomplete behavior with complete results, clearer active-tab scoping, and less context-switching while drafting prompts.
  • Chat/Tasks: todo list progress now updates live as task status changes, and task/model status hints are steady during active runs (thanks to @Yabuku-xD).
  • Reliability/Performance: improved cold start and streaming responsiveness with lazy-loaded heavy components, chunk-load recovery, lower re-render churn, and safer reconnect/local-stream recovery (thanks to @Yabuku-xD, @jwcrystal, @vhqtvn).

VS Code

New

  • UI/Localization: added translated interface strings for Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Ukrainian, and Simplified Chinese, with language selection available in extension settings.
  • Settings/Appearance: added selectable interface and code fonts with 10 choices each, and reorganized appearance sections.
  • Chat/Workflow: added keyboard turn navigation, widened chat content, and introduced a local workspace review slash command.

Improvements

  • Chat/Context: autocomplete and mention results are now easier to scan, with fuller results and clearer active-tab behavior while drafting.
  • Chat/Tasks: todo list progress now updates live as task status changes, and task/model status hints are steady during active runs (thanks to @Yabuku-xD).
  • Chat/Performance: improved cold start and streaming smoothness with lazy-loaded heavy components, chunk-load recovery, and lower re-render churn in long sessions (thanks to @Yabuku-xD).
  • Reliability/Sync: improved reconnect recovery (thanks to @jwcrystal, @vhqtvn).

Fixes

  • Chat/Header: restored context usage in the chat header, kept it tooltip-only, and kept rate-limit usage available in expanded layouts.
  • Reliability/Startup: improved managed runtime startup by preserving user PATH and skipping stale session directories.
