+- **Client methods**: stable `fs/*` and `terminal/*` handlers with permission controls and cwd sandboxing
+- **Auth handshake**: stable `authenticate` support via env/config credentials

 - Prompt submissions are queue-aware per session. If a prompt is already running, new prompts are queued and drained by the running `acpx` process.
 - Queue owners use an idle TTL (default 300s). `--ttl <seconds>` overrides it; `--ttl 0` keeps owners alive indefinitely.
 - `--no-wait` submits to that queue and returns immediately.
+- `cancel` sends cooperative `session/cancel` to the running queue owner process and returns success when no prompt is running (`nothing to cancel`).
+- `set-mode` and `set` route through queue-owner IPC when active, otherwise they reconnect directly to apply `session/set_mode` and `session/set_config_option`.
 - `exec` is always one-shot and does not reuse saved sessions.
 - Session metadata is stored under `~/.acpx/sessions/`.
+- Each successful prompt appends lightweight turn history previews (`role`, `timestamp`, `textPreview`) to session metadata.
+- `Ctrl+C` during a running turn sends ACP `session/cancel` and waits briefly for `stopReason=cancelled` before force-killing if needed.
+- If a saved session pid is dead on the next prompt, `acpx` respawns the agent, attempts `session/load`, and transparently falls back to `session/new` if loading fails.
