This prevents duplicate containers when the same folder is opened with both Zed and the devcontainer CLI / VS Code. (#54302; thanks antont)
• Fixed code actions toolbar button flickering on cursor movement. (#53571; thanks Dnreikronos)
• Fixed terminal flicker on resize. (#47195; thanks pigletfly)

• Fixed sticky scroll headers showing attribute/decorator lines instead of the declaration line in PHP and other languages where annotations are child nodes of the declaration. (#53288; thanks Vastargazing)
• Fixed terminal rendering of combining marks in complex scripts (Thai, Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, Myanmar, Khmer, and others) where vowel signs and tone marks were incorrectly displaced to adjacent cells instead of rendering on their base characters. (#53176; thanks MX48Live)
• Fixed the vtsls completeFunctionCalls setting being ignored. (#53285)
• Fixed the file extension recognition logic for images in the agent UI being case sensitive. It is now case insensitive. (#54786)

• Fixed trailing ; being wrapped to a new line instead of staying attached to the preceding word. (#54546)
• Fixed vim o/O commands ignoring the auto_indent: "none" setting, causing new lines to inherit indentation instead of starting at column 0. (#53620; thanks davidalecrim1)
• Fixed whitespace rendering in Zed. (#54798)

• Fixed moving the cursor to a predicted position in Zeta 2. (#55192)

Breaking Changes and Notices

• Removed the project_name project setting. It only ever affected the OS window title, and the expectation that it would show up in the project switcher and elsewhere is better served by a future UI-driven, per-workspace setting stored locally. (#54511)

• Added support for GPT 5.5 and GPT 5.5 Pro via the OpenAI provider (#54828)
• agent: Fixed an issue where sessions would not immediately be cleaned up when archiving (#54775)

• Fixed agent threads appearing to be missing after upgrading to the parallel-agents sidebar. The thread-metadata migration was racing against the on-disk thread store's async reload and skipping itself on every launch. Upgrading to this build runs the migration successfully; previously-missing threads are surfaced either in the sidebar (5 most recent per project) or in the archive view. (#54751)
