 ## Highlights
 
-- **Tool Registry Discovery:** Introduced tool registry discovery capabilities,
-  enabling automatic detection and registration of tools to improve
-  extensibility.
-- **Release Verification Improvements:** Enhanced release verification by
-  ignoring scripts during `npm ci` and preventing workspace binary shadowing.
-- **CI Pipeline Safeguards:** Strengthened the CI pipeline to prevent bad NPM
-  releases and ensure promote job failures are correctly surfaced.
+- **Auto Memory Inbox:** Introduced a new inbox flow for Auto Memory using a
+  canonical-patch contract, enabling more robust and manageable skill
+  extraction.
+- **Gemma 4 Default:** Gemma 4 models are now enabled by default via the Gemini
+  API, providing improved performance and capabilities out of the box.
+- **Voice Mode Polish:** Added wave animations for visual feedback and
+  privacy/compliance UX warnings specifically for the Gemini Live backend.
+- **Session Management:** Added a `--delete` flag to the `/exit` command for
+  instant session deletion and introduced `/bug-memory` for easier heap
+  diagnostics.
+- **Improved Reliability:** Reduced default API timeouts to 60s and implemented
+  retries for undici and premature stream closure errors.

 ## Highlights
 
-- **Caretaker Cloud Run Services**: Implemented a Cloud Run webhook ingestion
-  service and egress service skeleton to support advanced caretaker features.
-- **Enhanced Security & Sandbox Hardening**: Enforced a case-insensitive
-  sensitive path blocklist and VS Code human-in-the-loop (HITL) checks, resolved
-  a directory escape vulnerability in the memory import processor, and marked
-  `~/.gitconfig` as read-only within the macOS sandbox.
-- **Improved Thought Leakage and Escape Handling**: Resolved potential thought
-  leakage by stripping thinking/thought processes from scrubbed history turns,
-  and ensured escape sequences in string literals are correctly preserved for
-  modern models.
-- **Robust Path & API Updates**: Enhanced defensive path resolution for
-  at-reference files, and updated the Vertex AI base URL configuration to
-  support the latest API updates.
+- **Surgical Code Edits:** Steer models to use the `edit` tool for precise code
+  modifications, improving accuracy and reducing context usage.
+- **Session Portability:** Added ability to export chat sessions to files and
+  import them via a new CLI flag, enabling session persistence and sharing.
+- **Enhanced Security:** Introduced comprehensive shell command safety
+  evaluations and strengthened model steering to prevent unauthorized changes.

-- **When it runs**: Immediately after a pull request is created, synchronized
-  (new commits pushed), or reopened. It can also be triggered manually via
-  `workflow_dispatch` with a PR number.
-- **What it does**:
-  - **Calculates total changes**: Summarizes additions and deletions across all
-    changed files in a single consolidated API request.
-  - **Applies standard size labels**:
-    - `size/XS`: < 10 lines changed
-    - `size/S`: 10-49 lines changed
-    - `size/M`: 50-249 lines changed
-    - `size/L`: 250-999 lines changed

-  - **Updates size tag atomically**: Adds the new correct size label and removes

-  - **Updates/Posts PR size info comment**: Instead of spamming a new comment on
