+### Added
+- **Slack sessions show a working status instead of nothing** (#525, thanks @kaza). `sendTyping()` was a no-op on Slack, so a Slack session showed no sign of life between the ack reaction and the first output while Mattermost had a typing indicator all along. `assistant.threads.setStatus` fills it in, needs no new scope and no manifest change, and is torn down when the turn ends — a status persists until something replaces it, unlike a self-expiring websocket frame, so `clearTyping()` joins the platform contract. Slack documents the method as AI-assistant-threads-only; it works in ordinary channels, and the degradation path is silent if that ever changes.
+
+### Fixed
+- **Idle Slack connections are no longer killed once a minute** (#532, thanks @kaza). The 60-second heartbeat counted only text frames, and an idle Socket Mode connection carries nothing but protocol-level pings — so the heartbeat concluded every healthy idle connection was dead, tore it down and reconnected, forever. Each teardown is a window in which a message can be missed. Fixed on Bun and Node 20; Node 22+/undici exposes no frame-level ping visibility at all and remains open in #498.
+- **A session that stalls mid-turn is no longer reported as idle** (#548, found by @kaza while reviewing #533). The idle reaper decides from `lastActivityAt` alone, with no check on whether a turn is open. That clock is fed by every Claude event, so a streaming turn keeps it warm — but a turn that goes silent (a wedged CLI, a dropped API connection, one long-running tool call) was reaped with *"Session timed out after N minutes of inactivity"*, which is false and sends the user looking in the wrong place. The timeout and pre-timeout warning now distinguish three cases: a turn blocked on a plan approval or question says the bot is waiting on *you*, a turn that went silent reports lost output, and a genuinely idle session reads exactly as before. All variants are registered with the #491 bot-to-bot loop guard, so one bot's status post still can never read as a request to another.

 - **Routines** - `!routine every weekday at 9am, summarize open threads` schedules recurring work; runs post as new threads in the channel, confirmed before saving and managed with `!routines` ([docs](https://github.com/anneschuth/claude-threads/blob/main/docs/CONFIGURATION.md#routines-routines-default-enabled))
 - **Watches** - `!watch when someone reports an incident, triage it` reacts to matching channel messages: a free keyword prefilter plus a semantic check fire a session right in the triggering thread ([docs](https://github.com/anneschuth/claude-threads/blob/main/docs/CONFIGURATION.md#watches-watches-default-enabled))
 - **Files both ways** - Drop any file into the chat for Claude to read, with full multimodal for images and PDFs; Claude posts screenshots, plots, or PDFs back with `send_file` (100 MB cap)
+- **Voice notes** - With `transcription:` configured (ElevenLabs Scribe), an audio clip is transcribed before Claude sees it and the transcript is echoed into the thread; see [Configuration](docs/CONFIGURATION.md#transcription-transcription)
 - **Quiet mode and verbosity dials** - `!mentions on` makes a session respond only when mentioned; session headers and the channel sticky each have `full`/`minimal`/`hidden` modes
 - **Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows** - Windows via Git Bash or WSL
 - **Auto-update** - The bot watches npm for new versions; `!update now` applies one from chat

+- **[claude-threads-voice-desk](https://github.com/kaza/claude-threads-voice-desk)** - A live voice call with the agent: a Gemini Live front desk posts what you say into the Slack task channel as you and reads the reply back. Needs 1.33+ (posts made through the app's own user token reach Claude, #527).
