 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.19.7] - 2026-10-02
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Recover dormant Claude Desktop Code tasks by reopening their exact saved task ID before sending. Keep account, sender, project and recipient checks active throughout recovery; never substitute a CLI or another task.
+- On Windows, submit authorized new Desktop conversations after verifying the exact prompt and explicitly selecting the full native project path. A deep-link folder hint can otherwise create a scratch "No folder" session. Authorized workspace trust handles only the exact native project dialog. Preserve uncertain submission receipts without duplicate Send and track native helper changes during runtime reload.
+- Recover the Windows Claude URI launcher when an application update leaves the registered executable missing.
+
+## [1.19.6] - 2026-10-02
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Make newly created Linux and macOS managed Codex policies readable by the account running Codex. Repair an existing valid policy that was created with restrictive file permissions, so Full access + Never works after administrator setup and remains repairable on later bridge starts.
+
