 # Changelog
 
+## [0.25.15] — 2026-09-24
+
+- Wait for parent-thread context before answering reply mentions and follow-ups. Join a slow intake read or retry a failed one instead of treating the one-second ownership probe as a permanent history failure.
+- Allow up to ten seconds for thread history while bounding optional channel background reads separately, so stalled background history cannot discard the parent message.
+- Preserve parent attachment metadata and instruct agents to inspect image contents with available tools, distinguish metadata from actual viewing, and avoid requesting attachments already present.
+- Add regression coverage for slow parent reads, transient intake failures, stalled background reads, and untagged follow-ups. Full package certification passed.
+
 ## [0.25.14] — 2026-09-24
 
 - Let agents select the most relevant existing channel for task completion reports when there is no source thread, even without a dedicated agent channel. Validate the choice against live channels and preserve saved results for delivery retries without repeating the work.
