- Added `typeof theme === "undefined"` guards to all four theme getters.
- Fallbacks return a usable plain-ASCII or plain-text theme instead of crashing.
- Added a pre-init test asserting the getters never throw.
- Added a setup-system-deps action with preloaded-runner guards and apt fallbacks.
- Updated CI workflows to download Linux x64 native artifacts and gate on native job success.
- Renamed coding-agent fast mode to singleton in scripts and test partitioning logic.
- Added settings test-state begin/restore helpers with recursive cleanup in affected tests.
- Added `handleUsageResetCommand` support to list and redeem usage reset credits.
- Refactored `/usage` into `show` and `reset` subcommands and removed `/reset-usage`.
- Handled ACP/TUI `/usage` flows so `show` reports usage and `reset` redeems credits.
- Kept selected theme setting values dirty-colored while selected in the UI list.
- Reworked classic and KITT shimmer intensity math to drive the scan head by a constant 30 cells/second.
- Introduced length-aware travel periods for classic padding and KITT ping-pong motion while removing the prior fixed-duration phase helpers.
- Updated shimmer tests to validate crest movement stays within one cell per 30fps frame and is consistent across text lengths.
- Synchronized shimmer progression by switching `shimmer.ts` to a shared 2-second phase sweep, with crest/head position interpolated across the full visible span.
- Updated classic and KITT intensity calculations so shimmer starts at index 0 and reaches index length-1 together for any task row length.
- Adjusted shimmer tests to assert crest boundary and phase alignment behavior across short and long strings.
- Cached setting path segments and memoized `Settings.get()` results, clearing caches on updates.
- Triggered session-name and session-accent callbacks only when effective values changed, with error-safe dispatch.
- Memoized status-line and interactive accent resolution with cache invalidation on settings/theme/session changes.
- Added regression tests for keybinding precedence, status-line, settings, and accent cache behavior.
- Loading message rendering now derived session-specific accent colors and applied them to shimmer output when a session name was available.
- Shimmer palettes were updated to accept raw ANSI color values as well as theme color names during compilation.
- A unit test was added to confirm shimmer text rendered with a supplied ANSI crest color.
