• Fixed the "Reopen in Dev Container" suggestion re-appearing in new git worktrees after choosing "Don't Show Again". (#58576)
• Fixed the active debug line color not updating when switching themes while the debugger is paused (#58736). (#59274; thanks Dnreikronos)
• Fixed the agent panel offering a thinking toggle for models that cannot run with thinking disabled. (#58980)
• Fixed the agent permission dialog's "Always Allow" action having no keybinding on macOS; it is now bound to cmd-alt-y, matching Linux and Windows. (#58365; thanks wazer24)

This week's release includes automatic agent context compaction that you can also trigger manually with the new /compact command, cleaner and more legible Markdown preview styling, and support for running custom git commands on git graph branches and tags.
