This update is all about making the command line tool less frustrating to use, especially if you log in through a work or school Microsoft account. It focuses heavily on fixing annoying glitches and making the interface look cleaner when the AI is working behind the scenes.
What's new
- Compact tool card previews: When a "sub-agent" (a smaller, background AI task) is running, it now shows a smaller, condensed preview card. This keeps your screen tidy and makes it easier to see what the AI is doing without taking up too much space.
Fixes
- Entra ID session expiration: Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) is a login system used by schools and businesses for Microsoft accounts. There was a bug where your login session would expire too early, kicking you out unexpectedly. This is fixed, so your login will actually last like it's supposed to.
- Compound shell command approval loops: A "compound shell command" is basically combining multiple instructions into one line (like "do this *and then* do that"). The tool was getting confused by these combos and getting stuck in an "approval loop"—meaning it kept asking you for permission over and over again. That annoying loop is now squashed.
