Release Notes
2026-04-13 - Install MCP servers from the registry with guided configuration directly in the CLI - Esc key works correctly after a failed /resume session lookup - Persist resolved model in session history and defer model changes during active turns - ACP clients can now provide MCP servers (stdio, HTTP, SSE) when starting or loading sessions - The --config-dir flag is now respected when selecting the active model - Add /env command to show loaded environment details (instructions, MCP servers, skills, agents, plugins) - /share appends the correct file extension (.md or .html) when a custom output path is given without one - /add-dir accepts relative paths (e.g. ./src, ../sibling) and resolves them to absolute paths - Custom instruction files preserve special characters like & and <placeholders> - Skill picker list scrolls correctly when the list exceeds the terminal height - MCP client reports the correct CLI version during server handshake - /logout shows a warning when signed in via gh CLI, PAT, API key, or environment variable, since /logout only manages OAuth sessions - Alt+D now deletes the word in front of the cursor in text input - /share html shows a file:// URL and supports Ctrl+X O to open the file directly - Skill instructions persist correctly across conversation turns - You can now remote control your CLI sessions using --remote or /remote - MCP remote server connections automatically retry on transient network failures - Share Research TOC sidebar anchor links navigate correctly within the page
