 ## Highlights
 
-- **Unified Auto Mode:** Merged all "Auto" modes into a single, unified Auto
-  mode, simplifying the automation workflow and providing a more consistent
-  experience across tasks.
-- **Expanded Editor Support:** Native support for Sublime Text and Emacs Client
-  has been added, giving developers more flexibility in their choice of external
-  editors.
-- **TUI Automation Skills:** New `agent-tui` and `tui-tester` skills enable the
-  programmatic testing and automation of terminal UI (TUI) applications,
-  facilitating robust verification of terminal-based tools.
-- **Improved UI Performance:** Throttled shell text output and added bounds to
-  the live UI buffer to ensure smooth rendering and stability during high-volume
-  output sessions.
-- **Stabilized Sandbox Environments:** Explicitly clearing entrypoints when
-  spawning sandbox containers ensures reliable and consistent environment
-  initialization across different Linux distributions.
+- **Context Manager Simplification:** Completed a significant refactoring of the
+  context management system to improve reliability and architectural clarity.
+- **A2A Usage Metadata:** Enhanced the Agent-to-Agent protocol to expose usage
+  metadata, enabling more transparent resource monitoring.
+- **Terminal & PTY Robustness:** Resolved several critical issues related to
+  terminal interactions, including Termux relaunch loops and PTY resize errors.
+- **Routing Optimizations:** Updated default auto-routing and bypassed
+  classifiers for specific tool responses to prevent orphaned function errors.
+- **Tool Execution Control:** Forced the `update_topic` tool to execute
+  sequentially, ensuring consistent narrative flow in agent interactions.
