## Highlights

- **Remote HTTPS is much easier to trust and use**: Connect to
self-hosted CodeNomad instances over HTTPS more smoothly, including
setups that use self-signed certificates.
- **Git changes are much more capable inside the app**: Review diffs
with a redesigned Monaco-based experience and a stronger Git Changes
workflow that makes working with modified files and worktrees feel more
natural.
- **File viewing is more useful out of the box**: Markdown files can now
be previewed directly, so notes, docs, and READMEs are easier to inspect
without leaving CodeNomad.
- **Desktop setup is simpler**: CodeNomad no longer depends on a
separate Node install in the same way, reducing setup friction and
making desktop usage easier to get running.
- **Remote and local workflows are more upgrade-friendly**: There is now
a dedicated CLI upgrade command, making it easier to keep the underlying
tooling current.

## What’s Improved

- **Better remote-server integration**: Remote proxy configuration is
more flexible, OpenCode authentication is respected more consistently,
and remote session handling is easier to reason about.
- **Stronger workspace and folder flows**: Folder picking is smoother,
selected workspace roots are preserved more reliably, and
workspace-scoped session behavior is clearer.
- **More polished desktop packaging**: Linux AppImage distribution,
Linux icon integration, Windows ARM64 build support, and WSL/Windows
path handling all received improvements.
- **Cleaner prompt and file tooling UI**: Prompt composer actions are
laid out more clearly, file filters behave more predictably, and
apply-patch diagnostics are easier to understand.

## Fixes

- **More reliable live updates**: Closed SSE streams reconnect more
reliably, helping sessions recover more gracefully.
- **Less disruptive scrolling while replies stream**: Long responses and
streaming output are held more predictably so the view does not jump
around as much.
- **Better worktree behavior**: Delete-worktree failures now surface
clearer diagnostics, and Git/worktree state handling is more dependable
overall.
- **More stable desktop startup**: Managed server startup, shell
environment loading, package/runtime app IDs, and missing-runtime
reporting were all tightened up.
- **Better power behavior during long sessions**: Wake-lock handling now
allows the display to sleep while active work continues, avoiding a more
intrusive always-awake experience.

## Docs

- **Updated supporting docs**: README and internal documentation were
refreshed, including SideCars notes and wake-lock behavior
documentation.
