Pair your phone in one scan, a redesigned start screen, a file tree beside the chat, and threads

The short version:

• Pair your phone in one scan: the desktop shows the QR first, follows the scan, and lets you pick the route.
• A redesigned start screen on the desktop, with sessions that never split.
• A file tree beside the chat, on either side, and inside the Projects card.
• Threads: long chats send only what's new each step, so very long sessions start answering sooner.
• A computers page on your phone, with a Mote effort slider and a new More panel.
• Dispatched agents can start their own helpers, one level deep.
• Faster tab switches on the desktop, and lighter indexing and engine checks.

Desktop

• Start screen redesign: recent work up front, sessions that never split, and the same model names everywhere.
• File tree inside the Projects card or next to the chat, with a sidebar button and a working Browse files.
• Every project mode gets the full project menu, and the rail shows where a dragged project will land.
• Pairing: the QR comes first, Copy link sits under it, and a Wi-Fi-only code says so with a link to change it.
• The context gauge and cost always show, above the chat or in the status bar.
• The side panel drags wider.

Phones

• Computers page with your Macs and their engines, status at a glance.
• Easy pairing with a route picker.
• Mote effort slider and a round More button that opens a glass panel.

Terminal

• Mote is the speaker mark next to Empryo's answers.
• Open here starts the default engine when none is running.

Agents and models

• Threads for long conversations, on by choice in Settings.
• Dispatched agents can start helpers of their own, one level deep.
• Retry on chosen errors: retry.retryOnStatus retries the status codes you list.
• Turning on tool-result pruning warns that it breaks the prompt cache.

Bug fixes

• Light-mode pop-ups stay readable before the theme loads.
• Pruned sessions reopen correctly and keep the right media cache size.
• show says when your artifact settings hide a picture.
• The Halloween look is over.
• Plus many smaller fixes across the desktop app, the terminal, the phone apps and model providers.
