 ## Unreleased
 
+## 0.26.10 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Added
+
+- Hosted (server-side) web search for Responses-API providers. On DeepSeek
+  flash and OpenAI gpt-5.x (API key or ChatGPT subscription), kolega can
+  request the provider's own
+  `{"type": "web_search"}` tool: searches and page-opens execute on the
+  provider's servers and the content is injected directly into the model's
+  context (billed as input tokens; the context gauge accounts for it from
+  usage, since the content never reaches the client). Calls render in the
+  transcript as `web_search (hosted)`. Controlled by a new web tool mode —
+  `auto` (default: hosted when the model supports it, else the client tools) /
+  `hosted` / `client` / `off` — via Settings, `KOLEGA_CODE_WEB_SEARCH_MODE`,
+  `ask --web-search`, or the TUI's `/web-search`. When hosted search is active
+  the client-side `web_search`/`web_fetch` tools are not registered; `off`
+  removes all web tools (for sandboxed/benchmark runs). Notes: provider
+  per-search fees, if any, are not modeled in cost reporting (injected tokens
+  are); sessions that used hosted search store a new `web_search_call` history
+  block that older kolega builds cannot load.
+- LSP tools can now be forced on or off for a single launch: `--lsp on|off`
+  on both the TUI and `kolega-code ask`, plus a `KOLEGA_CODE_LSP` env var,
+  resolved flag > env > settings > default-enabled. `--lsp on` overrides a
+  persisted `lsp_enabled=false` without writing back to settings. Turning LSP
+  off now removes the `lsp`/`lsp_edit` tools from the model entirely —
+  previously they stayed registered and could only answer "LSP is not
+  available" — and the Settings LSP status notes when the launch flag is
+  forcing the mode.
+- The per-session scratchpad directory is now exported as `KOLEGA_SCRATCHPAD`
+  to every shell command and eval kernel, so scripts and kernels can reach the
+  session's throwaway workspace by environment variable instead of hardcoding
+  a temp path.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Thinking now renders as a collapsed row in the TUI transcript — `● Thinking
+  · … · 1.2k words` while streaming (a live word counter, never the text),
+  flipping to `● Thought · 12s · 1.2k words` on completion; expand the row to
+  read the full reasoning. Long reasoning turns (DeepSeek flash especially) no
+  longer dominate the transcript with full-height thinking walls.
+- Resumed sessions now restore reasoning as the same collapsed thinking rows,
+  in true interleaved order with tool and hosted web-search rows: Anthropic
+  thinking text, DeepSeek flash's raw chain-of-thought, and OpenAI/ChatGPT
+  reasoning summaries all render (encrypted-only reasoning items have no
+  renderable text and are skipped). Previously reasoning vanished entirely
+  from restored transcripts.
+- The coder prompt now follows a Codex-style final-message contract: the
+  closing report leads with what was delivered and its verified state, stays
+  brief by default with structure scaled to complexity, references files by
+  path instead of re-pasting contents, and never restates the plan step by
+  step. Preambles before tool calls are tightened to a single short line
+  naming the purpose of the next action, and verification effort is bounded —
+  tool results are trusted (no re-reading a file to confirm an edit applied)
+  and verification stops once no remaining check could realistically fail.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Hosted web-search calls now render in their true position in the TUI
+  transcript. Previously the rows mounted at the bottom and stayed pinned
+  there while post-search reasoning kept streaming into the thinking bubble
+  above them; the stream now closes the open thinking/response segment at
+  each hosted call, so reasoning after a search opens a new bubble below its
+  rows (think → search → think → answer). Resumed sessions now render hosted
+  `web_search (hosted)` rows from history too — previously they were dropped
+  from the restored transcript.
+- `ask --json` no longer emits spurious synthetic message fragments when
+  hosted web search flushes response text mid-stream: the lost-text fallback
+  now applies once at end of turn, and only when the turn produced no
+  assistant message.
+- The context gauge no longer under-reads on `deepseek-v4-flash`. DeepSeek's
+  Responses API silently re-attaches every prior round's reasoning server-side and
+  bills it as input, but the client history held none of it, so the gauge (and the
+  auto-compaction trigger) could run over 100k tokens behind the real billed
+  context on reasoning-heavy sessions. Flash's plain-text reasoning is now retained
+  in history and resent each turn — the same shape Codex replays, deduped by the
+  server so billing is unchanged — which keeps the gauge on the real number and
+  preserves chain-of-thought continuity across session restores. The retained
+  reasoning text also now appears in `ask --json` message payloads (parity with
+  Anthropic thinking text); encrypted-only reasoning from OpenAI/ChatGPT stays
+  stripped as before.
+
+### Security
+
+- Dependency bumps for advisories published 2026-08-03/04: `cryptography`
+  48.0.1 → 50.0.0 (PKCS#7 Bleichenbacher oracle CVE-2026-69247, a name-constraint
+  wildcard bypass CVE-2026-69248, and a path-building DoS CVE-2026-69249) and
+  `aiohttp` 3.14.1 → 3.14.3 (three parser advisories, including an out-of-bounds
+  heap read in the C response parser). Exception: Intel Macs stay on
+  `cryptography` 48.0.1 — every fixed release dropped Intel-mac wheels, and
+  upgrading would break the curl installer there with a Rust+OpenSSL source
+  build — so those three advisories are knowingly accepted on that legacy
+  platform only.

 ## Verify By Running
 
-Prove the deliverable works by running the actual thing and observing the result — not a proxy, not "the command exited 0," not your recollection of what you did. Use the proof the task calls for: a program → run it; a bug fix → reproduce the failure, then confirm it is gone; a service its users reach → exercise it as a client would, independently of the process you launched; a file or value → confirm it exists with the right contents. A narrow check cannot stand in for a broad requirement: a process starting is not a reachable service, and a command running is not the artifact produced. Tool results ARE your verification; NEVER assume an edit worked because you wrote it. Test thoroughly, cover the edge cases the task implies, and re-run the checks after every fix; start with the smallest command that gives confidence, then broaden.
-
-Expected values must come from an authority independent of your implementation — the task's stated contract, the artifact or environment itself, or an independent tool — never from the code under test or the assumption you are trying to confirm: a check constructed to come out true verifies nothing, and a passing check is evidence only for the requirement it actually covers, so match verification scope to claim scope. Literal values in task examples are illustrative unless the task says otherwise — derive the real value from the artifact instead of assuming the example generalizes. Prefer falsification: test the input most likely to break your assumption, or a fresh input you did not develop against — one check that could have failed outweighs many that could not.
+When you've built or changed something, run it and look at the result. Reproduce a bug before fixing it so you can confirm the fix; exercise a service the way a client would; open a produced file and check its contents. Start with the smallest check that tells you something, then broaden as confidence builds, re-running whatever a fix could have affected. Edits report their own failures, so don't re-read files to confirm they applied.
 
-{% if interactive %}
-Before finishing, summarize what changed and mention the checks you ran. If relevant checks could not be run, say why.
+Expected values must come from somewhere your implementation can't influence — the task's stated contract, the artifact itself, or an independent tool. A check whose expected answer comes from the code under test passes whether or not the code is right. Treat literal values in examples as illustrative and derive the real value from the artifact. Prefer checks that could actually fail — an input that would expose your assumption over one you developed against. When no remaining check could realistically fail, verification is done.
 
-{% endif %}
 ## Finish the Whole Task
 
-Treat completion as unproven until you have checked it against every requirement. Before finishing, re-read the task and confirm your result meets each stated requirement — every named output, path, format, value, and threshold. "Done" means the deliverable behaves as specified end to end, not that a scaffold compiles or a narrowed check passed; a plausible subset is a failure, not partial success. Uncertain or indirect evidence means not done: gather stronger proof or keep working. If you cannot verify, say so — an honest blocker beats a confidently wrong success claim.

"Done" means the deliverable behaves as specified end to end, not that a scaffold compiles or a narrowed check passed; a plausible subset is a failure, not partial success. If stronger proof is in reach, you are not done. Push verification as far as the environment can take it, then finish with an honest account of what you verified and what you couldn't.
 
 Deliver the complete, working result. NEVER ship stubs, placeholders, mocks, no-ops, `TODO: implement`, or partial scaffolding as if finished. NEVER relabel unfinished work as "MVP", "v1", or "foundation" to imply completion — if it is not done, say so, do not pretend. NEVER silently shrink scope or substitute a narrower, easier, or merely-compatible task than the one you were given. If the task specifies a file at a particular path, produce exactly that file at exactly that path.

+## Preamble Messages

+
+- **State the purpose, not the mechanics**: name what the actions accomplish, not the command syntax.
+- **Logically group related actions**: one preamble covers a batch of related calls; do not write a separate note for each call.
+- **Keep it concise**: 8-12 words for most notes, never more than two sentences.
+- **Build on prior preambles**: connect to what has been done so far, so the note plus its predecessors read as a running plan.
+- **Exception**: skip the preamble for a trivial read (e.g., viewing a single file) unless it is part of a larger grouped action.
+
+**Examples:**
+
+- "Repo structure is clear; reading the API route definitions next."
+- "Next, I'll patch the config and update the related tests."
+- "Scaffolding the CLI commands and helper functions."
+- "Hull construction works; now wiring up the sampler loop."
+- "Install finished; writing the solver module now."
+- "Tests pass; checking edge cases around empty input."
