- Implemented native UTF-16 text processing in Rust diff module with support for unpaired surrogates.
- Removed `similar` crate from Rust workspace and `diff` npm package from coding-agent, hashline, and natives.
- Removed jsdiff fallback wrappers and `isWellFormed()` guards from TypeScript diff implementations.
- Added comprehensive test suite for native diff functions covering random inputs and edge cases including surrogates and emoji.
- Renamed model `codex-auto-review` to `gpt-5.3-codex-spark` with updated pricing and context window.
- Added the `xd://` virtual device protocol (`internal-urls/xd-protocol.ts`, `tools/xdev.ts`): tools declaring `loadMode: "discoverable"` are unmounted from the request tools array and driven via `read xd://` (list/docs+schema) and `write xd://<tool>` (execute), gated by the `tools.xdev` setting (default on) and inlined into the system prompt.
- Merged the `irc`, `job`, and `launch` tools into a single `hub` tool (`tools/hub/`, `async/job-manager.ts`): messaging keeps `send`/`inbox`/`list`, job control maps to `wait`/`cancel`/`jobs`, process supervision keeps `start`/`logs`/`stop`/`restart`/`describe` with `ps`, and the unified `wait` races background jobs against peer messages; SDK `IrcTool`/`JobTool`/`LaunchTool` are replaced by `HubTool`.
- Removed the hidden `resolve` tool in favor of the `xd://resolve`/`xd://reject`/`xd://propose` resolution devices, auto-including `write` whenever a deferrable tool or plan mode is present.
- Removed the BM25 tool-discovery system: the `search_tool_bm25` tool, the `tool-discovery` module, the `tools.discoveryMode`/`mcp.discoveryMode`/`mcp.discoveryDefaultServers`/`tools.essentialOverride` settings, per-tool MCP selection, and the `mcp_tool_selection` message type.
- Unified tool presentation on `ToolLoadMode` (`essential`|`discoverable`), replacing the custom-tool `xdev?: boolean` opt-out; custom, extension, MCP, RPC host, image-generation, and TTS tools now default to `discoverable`, and added a `satisfies` predicate to `SoftToolRequirement`.
- Removed the standalone `ssh` command tool and `ssh/ssh-executor` (the `ssh://` read/write/search protocol stays), and made `--tools` address hidden built-ins.
- Updated collab-web to render `xd://` dispatches and `hub` op families, dropped the `search_tool_bm25`/`ssh`/`report-finding` renderers, refreshed tool docs and prompts, and migrated the affected tests and changelogs.
- Parsed nested marked text tokens through the inline parser.
- Added browser-template regression coverage for ordered, unordered, and nested lists.
Fixes#5567
Extended the OTLP export bootstrap beyond traces so omp emits the full
OpenTelemetry signal set from a single session.
- Registered a LoggerProvider + BatchLogRecordProcessor and a MeterProvider
+ PeriodicExportingMetricReader when their OTLP endpoints (or the shared
endpoint) are set, each gated independently by OTEL_*_EXPORTER=none,
OTEL_SDK_DISABLED, and http/protobuf protocol checks.
- Bridged the centralized logger through a new registerLogSink API so every
log event also becomes an OTLP log record with severity, attributes, and
active span context for log-trace correlation (min level via OTEL_LOG_LEVEL).
- Recorded gen_ai.client.token.usage and pi.omp.agent.* metrics from the
agent run summary and per-chat usage hooks, and emitted a structured run
summary log event.
- Added an out-of-process logs+metrics probe and gating tests covering the
per-signal kill switches.
Fixes#4604
- Added six new search providers (Bing, Yahoo, Ecosia, Startpage, Mojeek, and Public) to expand coverage and parallel search capabilities.
- Implemented a unified `browserFetch` utility with headless-browser fallback and randomized Chrome profiles to improve scrape reliability.
- Integrated automated bot-defense mechanisms including CAPTCHA detection, ALTCHA proof-of-work, and homepage-token flows.
- Fixed hanging search CLI commands by ensuring proper closure of AuthStorage connections.
