In-channel replies, composer emoji, and browser extensions

Channels now support in-channel replies with notification precedence that keeps direct mentions ahead of ordinary replies. The composer gains an emoji picker, drafts survive reloads and rapid conversation switches, and opening Direct Messages selects the first conversation instead of leaving an empty panel.

Browser, apps, and projects

The embedded browser gains a Chrome extensions toolbar and a shared native automation layer. Marketplace moves into the Apps sidebar, installed packages can provide their own link previews, and bundled Code and Browser versions update together. Project channels gain desktop Git publication controls, keep device workspaces stable, and remain visible to authorized view-only members without exposing edit controls.

Specialists and reliability

Specialists gain a portable execution engine, better project Git tools, durable permission-gated continuation, explicit child stop and steer tools, and bounded provider waits with visible progress. The app can recover its main renderer after isolated failures without immediately asking for a destructive reset.

A large accessibility and narrow-window pass names chat dialogs and autocomplete popups, keeps top-bar and composer controls reachable, and improves focus and image sizing. Mobile releases become independent, voice sessions get a stronger expanded stage, and the app keeps its drafts, tasks, and miniapp state through more navigation and recovery paths.
