Full changelog
This release brings some minor bug-fixes and usability improvements.
- Solved some long-standing layout flashes on chat send
- Added a per-model minimum thinking level (default: medium) so that cycling thinking is more ergonomic
- Refined plan mode instructions to relax guard on mutations, permitting the agent to delete its own plan file, use local FS for analysis work, create GitHub issues, etc.
- Opus 4.8 is much more stringent about following the previous mutation guidelines, which lead to long (wasted) reasoning traces about how to execute a request w/o mutation.
- Refined
ask_user_questiontool call instructions to avoid presenting "recommended" option and focus on genuinely open questions with no clear path forward
