The clearest thread runs through tmux. PR 3894 gave each session an explicit kind marker instead of inferring it from the session name, fixing a real collision where an agent pane and a paired terminal could look identical. That set up PR 3905, which refused ambiguous poller seeds so the wrong session id could never…
A second theme: the web terminal's text handling. PR 3893 and its same-day fix, PR 3895, tightened IME composition so pasted text can't get mixed with a half-typed syllable — a subtle but real correctness bug for anyone typing in Korean or similar scripts. PR 3869 rebuilt OSC 8 hyperlink parsing so links from tools…
Smaller but notable: PR 3892 moved a test counter off a process-global into per-request state, fixing flaky concurrent test failures. PR 3917 improved sidebar contrast for the active session across themes, with several same-day follow-ups tightening WCAG compliance.
