Good morning, it's Tuesday, October 13th, 2026.
The lead insight: agent sessions are becoming much harder to lose, with isolation from the daemon and true conversation resume.
First theme is durability. Pull request 4355 runs each session start in its own transient systemd scope, in a per-profile slice. Until now, agents lived in the daemon's control group, so restarting the daemon as a service killed every runner. Now each session gets its own status and accounting, optional limits and…
Second theme is staying in control in the terminal. Pull request 4372 fixes the web live terminal losing scroll position when history loads or trims, caused by rows above changing size while the scroll position stayed fixed. And pull request 4370 makes the session jump chords configurable — Alt Up and Alt Down to…
Finally, maintenance. Pull request 4371 raises the minimum Rust version to 1.89 to match the locked dependency graph and adds a check job for it. Pull request 4367 tightens a Git test for non-UTF-8 renames without touching production code.
What's next: watch resource limits and scope management in production, and expect more keybinding flexibility as agent key conflicts surface.
