## Highlights

- **Atomic File Operations & State Recovery:** Serialized file tool operations
  with atomic writes and introduced atomic CLI state persistence with automatic
  recovery from backup on corruption.
- **Chat Recording Optimization:** Implemented append-only delta patching and
  bounded history windowing in ChatRecordingService to optimize memory and disk
  efficiency during long-running sessions.
- **CLI Input & Reference Resolution:** Added support for resolving `@file:line`
  references, resolved CPU hangs and quote swallowing on `@` symbols within code
  blocks, and prevented ghost text wrap hangs.
- **Terminal UI & Interaction Stability:** Ensured Ctrl+C emergency aborts
  reliably reach active cancellation handlers, made selection list confirmation
  with Enter and Spacebar dependable, preserved scroll positions, and fixed
  Windows ConPTY IME cursor forwarding.
