+## 0.34.0: Five-Wide Matrix Controls
+
+- `Button Matrix`: Expands compact nested JSON rows from one-to-three to one-to-five buttons for grids, keypads, palettes, games, and other position-bearing controls while preserving full-width top-level rows and existing object, attribute, flat-array, and plural-alias compatibility.
+- `Matrix Boundaries`: Keeps empty rows, rows of six or more buttons, malformed payloads, and deeper nesting fail closed before callback registration; published docs and bundled Skills now expose the five-button boundary.
+- `Interactive Surfaces`: Teaches Generated Control Surface to use five-wide position-bearing matrices for keypads, palettes, calendars, seat maps, directional controls, small games, and runnable demonstrations while keeping each continuation self-contained instead of inventing hidden application state.
+
+## 0.33.2: Structured Filesystem Surfaces
+
+- `Filesystem Ordering`: Sorts generated directory surfaces by visible directories, hidden directories, visible files, then hidden files, with alphabetical ordering inside each category before fixed ten-entry pagination.
+- `Surface Metadata`: Reuses compact status-style key-value rows for filesystem path and range metadata, with bold labels and inline-code values instead of middle-dot section separators or duplicated entry listings.
+
 ## 0.33.1: Rendered Command Replies And Visible Compaction
 
 - `Command Rendering`: Restored the `/next` empty-queue emphasis by preserving its HTML source and forwarding `parseMode: "HTML"` through the command reply adapter, so command helpers select the renderer explicitly instead of leaking HTML or Markdown syntax as plain text.

 ### Buttons And Callbacks
 
-Assistant replies can include top-level hidden `telegram_button` comments using a JSON object, JSON matrix, or compact double-quoted attributes; `telegram_buttons` is a plural alias. In a matrix, top-level objects become full-width rows while nested arrays group one to three buttons horizontally. Prefer one array comment for multiple buttons. Buttons use `label` plus `prompt`, or the compact `value` key when both are identical. The action marker is colon-free for every payload form. The bridge strips the comments from visible text, renders inline buttons, and routes callbacks back into Pi as queued prompts or extension-owned callback actions. Button-only replies receive the standard `☑️ **Choose an option:**` heading as automatic visible fallback text. Once a generated prompt button is accepted, only that exact button switches to its optional `selected_style` (`primary` blue by default, `success` green, or `danger` red) without altering its agent-authored label or emoji; every style still queues the selected prompt.

 `assistant.activity` is an independent bridge-owned projection over normalized Activity events. Each process reloads the shared file-backed setting at `agent-start` before activity admission, so multi-instance mode cannot continue projecting a stale broader process-local selection. Omitted values resolve to `verbose`, while invalid values fail closed to `quiet`; `thinking` and `tools` select one technical class, while `verbose` enables both. Provider-exposed thinking uses persistent ordinary HTML containing only a standard expandable blockquote with a bounded redacted latest-text window and inline Markdown rendered as Telegram HTML. Completed executed tools use native Rich Messages: each closed `<Tool>: <status>` root details node renders snake-case names as title words while preserving an uppercase two- or three-letter repeated prefix per word, then the native disclosure chevron reveals an open-by-default `arguments` child plus closed retained `update N` and `result`/`error` child details with lowercase monospaced, marker-free summaries and JSON pre blocks; known-safe Rich rejections fall back to the previous HTML disclosure. The projection captures the exact target and transport stamp at activity admission, serializes updates, preserves tool-start order, closes coalescing across assistant/thinking boundaries, bounds retained text/update memory plus edit frames and message/tool size, disables previews and HTTP(S) auto-link recognition inside technical evidence, and never replays a possibly committed send. Session generations own independent queues, so replacement drops queued old work without waiting on an old call. Both proactive prose and active-turn final delivery wait for the admitted activity queue inside their extension-owned delivery tasks, preserving technical-before-semantic ordering without delaying Pi lifecycle completion. Settlement, replacement, disconnect, failure, or stale authority clears only local ownership; already-sent activity messages remain in chat.
 
-Telegram prompt guidance is context- and authority-aware. The package and source-checkout extension both contribute `telegram-bridge` plus the optional `generated-control-surface` Skill through Pi resource discovery. The latter treats `interface = f(state, capabilities, intent)` as a renderer-neutral primitive, compiling transient evidence-backed controls over domain-owned workflows, systems, navigation, supervision, and decisions without creating parallel application state. Its filesystem adapter reserves the first full-width row for parent traversal outside root, places available Previous/Next controls together in one compact row immediately afterward, paginates directory entries in fixed pages of ten as full-width rows, emits the complete Telegram control set through one JSON-matrix action, suppresses duplicate plain/monospaced listings and default Refresh unless user preference overrides presentation, and retains an ordinary numbered fallback when buttons are unavailable. Only an exact direct owner or live registered follower exposes the two pi-telegram delivery tools, their active-tool metadata, and the compact routing suffix. Disconnect or authority loss removes those tool surfaces for subsequent requests without touching foreign tools; reconnect/recovery restores only the pi-telegram subset that was active before suspension, including across same-process reload. Telegram-originated turns route to the stable Skill contract and retain dynamic blocks such as `[voice] delivery: automatic voice`; the Skill and public documentation own syntax, target routing, Threaded Mode behavior, and diagnostics.

 - Button actions are stored in memory with short `callback_data`; Telegram never sees the full prompt in the button payload.
 - After Telegram accepts a generated button callback as a queued prompt, the bridge changes that exact button to its configured selection style without changing agent-authored text or emoji. Set `selected_style` to `primary` (blue), `success` (green), or `danger` (red); omitted or invalid values fall back to `primary`. The style never suppresses queue admission. Other choices stay visually unchanged and remain available; the callback acknowledgement remains the fallback on clients that do not render button styles.
 - When generated button markup is the entire assistant reply, the bridge supplies the standard `☑️ **Choose an option:**` heading as visible message text so Telegram has a message to which it can attach the inline keyboard.

Outside active turns, paired/default local/TUI delivery remains unchanged. Top-level `telegram_button` comments inside `text` are parsed with the same planner used for normal replies and attached to that message; buttons are never standalone Telegram messages.
 - The bundled `telegram-bridge` Skill owns action syntax, target routing, Threaded Mode, formatting, and profile-specific debugging guidance. The regular prompt routes applicable turns to that Skill. `telegram_attach` and `telegram_message` remain registered but are model-active only while this instance owns direct transport or holds a live follower registration; disconnect/loss suppresses their schemas and prompt metadata, and recovery restores only the operator's previously active pi-telegram subset.
