Recently shipped port-forwarding for droid computers, grouped slash commands, and full-screen help.

Port-forwarding and app startup got faster. The new droid computer port-forward command forwards ports from a droid computer to your local machine. App startup boot phases now run in parallel, reducing time to a usable window.

Slash commands and search were reorganized. Slash commands are now grouped by category for easier browsing, and filtered results are flattened with a clearer category block. Session search is quicker and returns better-ranked results. Help opens as a full-screen overlay dismissable with ? or Esc.

MCP management gained status visibility and reliability. droid mcl list and the session UI now show each MCP server's connection and authentication status. MCP servers can authenticate using Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD). Tool names containing dots are now accepted per the MCP specification. Basic auth fallback was restored for OAuth sign-in, and clearer guidance explains how to resolve MCP authentication failures.

Safety and administration sharpened. The commandBlocklist setting hard-stops specified commands even under full autonomy. Organizations can turn off CLI auto-updates with disableAutoUpdate. Air-gapped CLI binaries are properly signed and published. The CLI now rotates log files to avoid filling disk space.

New session and editing capabilities. Cloned repositories appear in the new-session projects dropdown. Edit prompts externally for composing longer messages. Skill slash commands are available when connecting from external editors. Tab completes slash commands, and Option+Left/Right navigates words in secondary text inputs.

Performance and polish. Reduced memory use during long and idle sessions. Improved chat performance in long sessions. The hooks manager was redesigned for viewing and configuring hooks. Archive projects to keep your project list tidy. Search within a chat transcript. Plugin toggles let you enable or disable individual plugins. WezTerm setup support was added. Update rollback lets the app revert to a previous version when needed.

Bug fixes. Fixed image paste on Windows, file encoding not preserving original, background process cleanup on Windows after droid exec, and cursor key handling with caps lock.
