 # Changelog
 
+## 0.16.0-beta.1 - 2026-11-10
+
+- **Background tasks:** Paseo now shows the background tasks an agent is running, such as shells and monitors, above the composer, with a Stop button for each. Works with Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode v2. ([#6220](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/6220), [#9162](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9162) by [@fxlelouarn](https://github.com/fxlelouarn))
+- **Faster diff loading:** Opening Changes shows the file tree right away while file contents load. Large diffs arrive in batches, so the rest of the app keeps responding while they load, and diffs take priority over the daemon's background worktree scans. ([#8907](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8907), [#9241](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9241), [#9243](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9243))
+- **Fewer reconnects on return:** Returning to the app keeps a working connection, including one in the middle of a large response, and reconnects once when it has to. On a host with several saved connections, Paseo stays on the one that works. ([#8651](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8651), [#9086](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9086), [#8855](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8855), [#9116](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9116))
+- **Keyboard shortcuts on mobile:** With a keyboard connected, iPad and Android now run the same shortcuts as desktop, including your custom bindings. Shortcut hints and Settings → Shortcuts appear when a keyboard is detected. Shortcuts also work in narrow desktop and browser windows. ([#8625](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8625) by [@jeroenfrenken](https://github.com/jeroenfrenken), [@lstroud](https://github.com/lstroud))
+- **Touch-sized tablet controls:** On iPad and other touch-screen devices, the wide layout now has touch-sized buttons, rows and bars. The composer toolbar folds its controls into the model menu when space runs out, and swiping right on the workspace reveals a collapsed sidebar as an overlay. ([#8748](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8748), [#8885](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8885), [#8891](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8891), [#8909](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8909), [#9151](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9151), [#9238](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9238), [#8739](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8739) by [@zeyugao](https://github.com/zeyugao))
+- **Plugin sidebar views:** A plugin can replace the sidebar's content with its own layout of workspaces, agents, projects and terminals across every connected host. Pick the view per device under Settings → Sidebar; Paseo's sidebar header and footer stay in place. ([#8906](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8906))
+- **Plugin composer controls:** Plugins can add their own controls to the composer, and read and set its prompt, attachments, provider, model, mode and thinking. They can also put the cursor in any agent's composer, add items to New workspace, and store their own metadata on agents and workspaces. ([#8744](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8744), [#9209](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9209), [#9207](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9207))
+- **Polish:** The chat stays still when a turn ends, and returning to a chat that has not changed shows it as it is with no refresh. Tool rows show their final title and icon from the first frame, the context window popover opens with usage already loaded, and sidebar hover cards open one at a time. ([#8944](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8944), [#9175](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9175), [#9242](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9242), [#9248](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9248), [#9212](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9212), [#9071](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9071))
+- **Rebuilt mobile chat timeline:** The chat timeline on iOS and Android was rebuilt. Expanding or collapsing a turn summary, todo card or tool-call group keeps the line you tapped in place, and on Android so do Show more, Show less and plan cards. ([#8717](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8717), [#9085](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9085))
+- **Undo workspace archive:** Archiving a workspace in the app now shows a "Workspace archived" toast for six seconds. Undo, or Cmd/Ctrl+Z, restores the workspace with its tabs and agents. On desktop, sidebar workspace rows also get an archive button on hover. ([#8904](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8904), [#9104](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9104))
+
+### Added
+
+- Added a Change base picker in Changes for worktree workspaces, so diffs, the commit list and Git actions can use another branch ([#8642](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8642), [#8934](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8934) by [@Myasuka](https://github.com/Myasuka))
+- Added links for issue and pull request references such as `#123` and `owner/repo#123` in agent replies, plans, the pull request panel and file previews, for GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Forgejo and Codeberg ([#8636](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8636))
+- Added iPhone Duo layout support: workspace actions sit in the system vertical bar, and the sidebar and workspace split on either side of the fold ([#8741](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8741), [#8901](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8901) by [@zeyugao](https://github.com/zeyugao))
+- Added fx as a provider you can add from the provider catalog in Settings → Hosts → Providers ([#9160](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9160))
+- Added background agents: an agent or plugin can create a helper with `background: true` that opens no tab, sends no notification and stays out of the sidebar and default agent lists ([#8683](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8683))
+- Added syntax highlighting for Terraform and HCL files (`.tf`, `.tfvars`, `.hcl`) ([#9106](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9106))
+- Added `PASEO_WORKSPACE_ID` to each agent's environment so an agent can identify, rename or archive its own workspace ([#8939](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8939) by [@DTTerastar](https://github.com/DTTerastar))
+
+### Changed
+
+- Changed opening a workspace to restore the tab you left instead of jumping to the agent that needs attention ([#8935](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8935))

+- **更快的 diff 加载**：打开“更改”时会立即显示文件树，文件内容随后加载。大型 diff 分批到达，加载期间应用的其他部分照常响应，并且 diff 优先于 daemon 的后台 worktree 扫描。 ([#8907](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8907), [#9241](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9241), [#9243](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9243))
+- **返回时更少重连**：返回应用时会保留仍可用的连接，包括正在传输大型响应的连接，只在必要时重连一次。主机保存了多个连接时，Paseo 会留在可用的那个连接上。 ([#8651](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8651), [#9086](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9086), [#8855](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8855), [#9116](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9116))
+- **移动端键盘快捷键**：连接键盘后，iPad 和 Android 现在可使用与桌面端相同的快捷键，包括你自定义的绑定。检测到键盘时会显示快捷键提示和“设置 → 快捷键”。在较窄的桌面端和浏览器窗口中快捷键同样可用。 ([#8625](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8625)，贡献者：[@jeroenfrenken](https://github.com/jeroenfrenken)、[@lstroud](https://github.com/lstroud))
+- **适合触控的平板控件**：在 iPad 和其他触屏设备上，宽屏布局现在使用适合触控尺寸的按钮、行和栏。Composer 工具栏在空间不足时会把控件收进模型菜单；在工作区上向右滑动，可将已折叠的侧边栏以浮层方式显示。 ([#8748](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8748), [#8885](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8885), [#8891](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8891), [#8909](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8909), [#9151](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9151), [#9238](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9238), [#8739](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8739)，贡献者：[@zeyugao](https://github.com/zeyugao))
+- **插件侧边栏视图**：插件可以用自己的布局替换侧边栏内容，展示所有已连接主机上的工作区、Agent、项目和终端。在“设置 → 侧边栏”中为每台设备选择视图；Paseo 的侧边栏页眉和页脚保持不变。 ([#8906](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8906))
+- **插件 Composer 控件**：插件可以向 Composer 添加自己的控件，并读取和设置其中的提示词、附件、Provider、模型、模式和思考强度。插件还可以把光标放到任意 Agent 的 Composer 中、向“新建工作区”添加条目，并在 Agent 和工作区上保存自己的元数据。 ([#8744](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8744), [#9209](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9209), [#9207](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9207))
+- **细节打磨**：一轮对话结束时聊天保持不动，返回没有变化的聊天时直接显示原样，无需刷新。工具行从第一帧起就显示最终标题和图标，上下文窗口浮层打开时用量已加载完成，侧边栏悬停卡片一次只打开一个。 ([#8944](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8944), [#9175](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9175), [#9242](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9242), [#9248](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9248), [#9212](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9212), [#9071](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9071))
+- **重建移动端聊天时间线**：iOS 和 Android 上的聊天时间线已重建。展开或折叠轮次摘要、待办卡片或工具调用组时，你点按的那一行保持原位；在 Android 上，“显示更多”“收起”和计划卡片也是如此。 ([#8717](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8717), [#9085](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9085))
+- **撤销工作区归档**：在应用中归档工作区时，现在会显示“Workspace 已归档”提示，持续六秒。点击“撤销”或按 Cmd/Ctrl+Z 可恢复该工作区及其标签页和 Agent。在桌面端，侧边栏的工作区行在悬停时还会显示归档按钮。 ([#8904](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8904), [#9104](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/9104))

 No prefix (`v`), no extra text. `Release Notes Sync` matches the `## X.Y.Z` (or `## X.Y.Z-beta.N`) line for the pushed tag to extract the version. A malformed heading breaks the release-notes sync for that tag.
 
-`CHANGELOG.md` on `main` is also what the app's **What's new** sheet fetches and renders, so the file is a shipped product surface, not just a release input. `##` starts a release and `###` starts a section; the app reads section titles from the document, so renaming or adding one needs no app change. Everything under a section is rendered as Markdown: prose, lists, links, inline code, fenced code, block quotes, tables, and images. Raw HTML does not render — the shared Markdown parser runs with `html: false`, so a `<video>`, `<iframe>` or `<embed>` tag reaches the reader as visible markup. Keep media out of the changelog, or link to it. A GitHub callout renders as a block quote with its `[!NOTE]` marker still in the text. A release entry is what a user reads on a phone the moment they are offered the update — write it for them.
+`CHANGELOG.md` on `main` is also what the app's **What's new** sheet fetches and renders, so the file is a shipped product surface, not just a release input. `##` starts a release and `###` starts a section; the app reads section titles from the document, so renaming or adding one needs no app change. Content between the release heading and the first `###` is the release's [highlights](#changelog-highlights). The What's new sheet, the website changelog and the GitHub release body show the highlights and keep the sections collapsed behind one control: Show all changes in the app and on the website, and an All changes `<details>` block that `Release Notes Sync` writes into the release body, so the file itself never needs HTML. A release with nothing before its first `###` shows its sections. Older entries that open with summary paragraphs are treated as highlights. The app, the website and the release scripts each parse the file with their own code, and installed apps keep the parser they shipped with, so those two heading rules are fixed: new kinds of content go inside the highlights or a section as Markdown, never behind a new heading level or marker. `scripts/test-support/changelog-structure.json` holds the cases all three parsers are tested against; change a structure rule there first. Everything under a section is rendered as Markdown: prose, lists, links, inline code, fenced code, block quotes, tables, and images. Raw HTML does not render — the shared Markdown parser runs with `html: false`, so a `<video>`, `<iframe>` or `<embed>` tag reaches the reader as visible markup.

+## Changelog highlights
+
+Every release entry leads with highlights: the changes a user would name first when asked what is
+new. They are a list above the first `###` section, biggest first. The sections below are the
+full record; a reader who stops after the highlights should have missed nothing they would ask
+about.
+
+```markdown
+## 0.16.0 - 2026-11-20
+
+- **Undo workspace archive:** Archiving a workspace in the app now shows a "Workspace archived" toast for six seconds. Undo, or Cmd/Ctrl+Z, restores the workspace with its tabs and agents. ([#8904](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/8904))
+
+### Added
+```
+
+- **The lead-in names what is new in four words at most.** Bold it, colon inside the bold. A reader
+  who sees only the bold words should know what this release added or changed. A category lead-in
+  such as `**Polish:**` gathers several related changes.
+- **The lead-in is not a place or something Paseo already had.** A device, screen or area names
+  where the change landed. A feature name that was true of the last release hides the news: Paseo
+  already had keyboard shortcuts, so the lead-in says they now work on mobile.
+- **The first sentence says the plain thing.** Write what a user would tell a friend: Paseo now
+  shows the background tasks an agent is running. Leave out the conditions and mechanics that make
+  it true.
+- **Describe the new behavior, not the old one.** Say what is faster or better now, and do not
+  dwell on how slow or broken it was before. A number is welcome as a short aside after the new
+  behavior is stated: seconds, a percentage, a multiple.
+- **Do not list what a sentence already covers.** After "the same shortcuts as desktop", naming
+  five of them adds nothing. Keep a list only when it sets the scope, such as the providers a
+  feature works with.
+- **The description runs one to three sentences.** Sentences end with periods, and the attribution
+  follows the last one. [Changelog wording](#changelog-wording) applies in full.
+- **A highlight replaces the section bullets it covers.** A PR appears once in an entry, so its
+  attribution moves to the highlight.
+- **A highlight is something a user would name.** Everything else stays a section bullet. A patch
+  release still has one: the change it ships for.
+- **Fixes are routine and stay in `### Fixed`.** Do not add a summary of fixes. A fix, or a group
+  of related fixes, becomes a highlight only when it passes the same test as a feature, and then
+  it is written as what works now: `**Fewer reconnects on return:**`.
