 # Changelog
 
+## 0.26.0 (2026-10-07)
+
+- A session that sat idle past its sign-in's 15-minute access token hears its answers again. The next message's
+  hand-off started the background refresh, waited 1.2 seconds for it and gave up, often just before it landed, so an
+  answered card went unannounced. Now the hand-off and the session start's pickup wait for an expired token until 0.9
+  seconds before their 3-second deadline, leaving room to ask for answers; a token with seconds left still waits 1.2.
+- Never silent: when the hand-off or the session start's pickup can't check for answers (Pending You unreachable, a
+  server error, or the sign-in still being refreshed), they add “Pending You couldn't check for answers just now: call
+  list_pending before you go on.” instead of only the plain reminder.
+
 ## 0.25.0 (2026-10-06)
 
 - An answer reaches only the session that asked. The hooks asked Pending You for their folder's answers and open

It answers `npx pendingyou hold` itself, so nothing waits in the background, and shows “2 waiting on you” under the prompt, after the plugin’s name.
