Full-screen Tabs and Compact Chats

This release introduces new granular output detail options: Compact for concise results, Balanced for important steps, and Detailed for complete context. Users will also find improved PR tab workflows with clearer review states, faster search and navigation in large workspaces, and smoother long-chat scrolling. Significant bug fixes address reliability issues across PR tabs, background tasks, cloud agents, authentication, and keyboard shortcuts, benefiting all users with a more stable and efficient experience.
