 - Fixed interactive sessions surviving terminal closure and entering a runaway render loop by stopping the TUI and raising SIGHUP when terminal input closes or output fails ([#5835](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/5835)).
 - Fixed native cmux SSH pane resizes inserting blank rows into terminal scrollback by routing remote-transport sessions through the in-place repaint path ([#5857](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/5857)).
 - Fixed the terminal flickering when leaving a fullscreen overlay (e.g. `/settings`) on terminals that re-report their size when the alternate screen buffer toggles: the alt-toggle SIGWINCH echo is height-only, so the resize fast path no longer borrows the alternate screen for it ([#5854](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/5854)).
+### Fixed

+- Restored wrapped descriptions in the slash-command autocomplete picker so long skill descriptions remain readable at normal terminal widths ([#5848](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/5848)).
