  (package.json, webviewProvider.ts, webview.js, CHANGELOG, READMEs)
• Add backward-compatible settings migration from old keys
  (tasksync.autoAnswer tasksync.autopilot, tasksync.autoAnswerText tasksync.autopilotText)
• Move Autopilot toggle beside the send button in the action bar
• Remove redundant autopilot-bar row to eliminate unnecessary spacing
• Update welcome section info tip with clearer Autopilot description

TaskSync v2.0.11

Major Features:

• Add context references (#terminal, #problems) for attaching terminal output and workspace diagnostics
• Integrate context items into file autocomplete dropdown
• Display attachments in tool call history cards

Security & Reliability:

• Add ReDoS protection for markdown table parsing (prevent regex backtracking attacks)
• Fix memory leaks: proper cancellation cleanup, stale terminal execution tracking
• Add input length validation (500KB max for questions, 100KB for queue prompts)
• Use async file I/O for MCP client registration (non-blocking activation)

Code Quality & Refactoring:

• Extract context providers into dedicated modules (ContextManager, TerminalContext, ProblemsContext)
• Consolidate duplicate CSS rules for code blocks and markdown
• Remove unused CSS (.welcome-tips, duplicate inline-code styles)
• Clean up JavaScript: remove unused variables, improve accessibility (ARIA labels)
• Fix race conditions in queue handling and request superseding

Bug Fixes:

• Prevent orphaned promises when multiple ask_user calls occur
• Fix temp image cleanup timing (now cleaned on session clear/dispose)
• Improve webview ready state handling to prevent message race conditions
• Better error handling with proper cancellation support

Performance:

• Cache context items dynamically (don't cache with file results)
• Debounced history saves (2s) for better disk I/O performance
• Process markdown tables line-by-line to avoid ReDoS vulnerability
