Android/chat settings: redesign the chat settings sheet with grouped device and media sections, refresh the Connect and Voice tabs, and tighten the chat composer/session header for a denser mobile layout. (#44894) Thanks @obviyus.
iOS/onboarding: add a first-run welcome pager before gateway setup, stop auto-opening the QR scanner, and show /pair qr instructions on the connect step. (#45054) Thanks @ngutman.
...
Control UI/dashboard-v2: refresh the gateway dashboard with modular overview, chat, config, agent, and session views, plus a command palette, mobile bottom tabs, and richer chat tools like slash commands, search, export, and pinned messages. (#41503) Thanks @BunsDev.
OpenAI/GPT-5.4 fast mode: add configurable session-level fast toggles across /fast, TUI, Control UI, and ACP, with per-model config defaults and OpenAI/Codex request shaping.
...
Gateway/WebSocket: enforce browser origin validation for all browser-originated connections regardless of whether proxy headers are present, closing a cross-site WebSocket hijacking path in trusted-proxy mode that could grant untrusted origins operator.admin access. (GHSA-5wcw-8jjv-m286)
