 ## Highlights
 
-- **Dynamic Sandbox Expansion:** Implemented dynamic sandbox expansion and
-  worktree support for both Linux and Windows, enhancing development flexibility
-  in restricted environments.
-- **Tool-Based Topic Grouping (Chapters):** Introduced "Chapters" to logically
-  group agent interactions based on tool usage and intent, providing a clearer
-  narrative flow in long sessions.
-- **Enhanced Browser Agent:** Added persistent session management, dynamic
-  read-only tool discovery, and sandbox-aware initialization for the browser
-  agent.
-- **Security & Permission Hardening:** Implemented secret visibility lockdown
-  for environment files and integrated integrity controls for Windows
-  sandboxing.
+- **Chapters Narrative Flow:** Introduced tool-based topic grouping ("Chapters")
+  to provide better session structure and narrative continuity in long-running
+  tasks.
+- **Context Compression Service:** Implemented a dedicated service for advanced
+  context management, efficiently distilling conversation history to preserve
+  focus and tokens.
+- **Enhanced UI Stability & UX:** Introduced a new "Terminal Buffer" mode to
+  solve rendering flicker, along with selective topic expansion and improved
+  tool confirmation layouts.
+- **Context-Aware Policy Approvals:** Users can now grant persistent,
+  context-aware approvals for tools, significantly reducing manual confirmation
+  overhead for trusted workflows.
+- **Background Process Monitoring:** New tools for monitoring and inspecting
+  background shell processes, providing better visibility into asynchronous
+  tasks.
