## Highlights
- **Real-Time Voice Mode:** Implemented a new real-time voice mode supporting
both cloud and local backends for a more interactive experience.
- **Enhanced Security & Trust:** Enforced workspace trust in headless mode and
secured `.env` file loading to improve system integrity.
- **Expanded Model Support:** Added experimental support for Gemma 4 models in
both core and CLI packages.
- **Improved Core Infrastructure:** Wired up new `ContextManager` and
`AgentChatHistory` for better state management, and optimized boot performance
by fetching experiments and quota asynchronously.
- **New Developer Tools & UX:** Added support for output redirection for CLI
commands, manual session UUIDs via command-line arguments, and persistent
auto-memory scratchpad for skill extraction.
- **Auto Memory Enhancements:** Introduced an Auto Memory inbox flow with a
canonical-patch contract for better memory management.
- **Improved Voice Mode:** Added a wave animation, microphone icon updates, and
privacy/compliance UX warnings for the Gemini Live backend.
- **New CLI Commands & Flags:** Added a `--delete` flag to the `/exit` command
for session deletion, a `list` subcommand to `/commands`, and a `/bug-memory`
command for heap snapshots.
- **Expanded Model Support:** Gemma 4 models are now enabled by default via the
Gemini API.
- **Enhanced Core Resilience:** Improved API resilience with reduced timeouts,
automatic retries for stream errors, and better handling of invalid stream
events.
