Release notes:

Minor Changes

• #319 `fe7db4a` - Append the current todo list as markdown to compaction summaries before writing them to history.

• #334 `eeefa98` - Add background automatic upgrades, which can be disabled in tui.toml.

• #270 `ac37d74` - Add experimental goal mode for longer tasks that need more than one turn. Turn it on with KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_GOAL_COMMAND=1 before you start Kimi.

Use /goal in the TUI when you want Kimi to keep working on one task across turns. For example:

/goal Fix the failing checkout test

Kimi shows the goal in the TUI and keeps progress visible while it works. Use /goal status, /goal pause, /goal resume, /goal cancel, and /goal replace to manage the goal. This feature is still experimental. Try it and tell us what would make it more useful.

• #315 `191059d` - Add background structured questions so agents can continue while waiting for user answers.

• #313 `3c5dee8` - Add kimi provider CLI subcommand with add, remove, list, and catalog list / catalog add actions, so providers from a custom registry (api.json) or the public models.dev catalog can be imported and managed without launching the TUI.

• #277 `a217ff0` - Add /undo slash command to withdraw the last prompt from conversation history, and keep replay records in sync when a prompt is undone.

• #334 `eeefa98` - Add a kimi upgrade command for manually checking and upgrade Kimi Code CLI.

• #336 `7cda9c3` - Add approval lifecycle hook events for observing pending and completed permission prompts.

Patch Changes

• #285 `573c56e` - Consolidate background task management under the agent background runtime.

• #314 `6de3d97` - Prevent modified keyboard release sequences from appearing after exiting the CLI.

• #335 `7284f30` - Fix custom registry provider handling during re-import. Prevent loss of multi-provider entries and remove stale providers along with their model aliases and default model references.

• #311 `80164c2` - Normalize glob patterns before brace expansion to prevent incorrect path matching.

• #247 `58e2915` - Fix a crash in the /sessions picker on very narrow terminals by clamping every rendered line to the terminal width.

• #317 `1f8c36a` - Fix tool output preview rendering: trim trailing empty lines, append ellipsis to multi-line Bash command headers, and truncate long single-line output by visual wrapped lines instead of raw newline count.

• #145 `d912053` - Fix Git Bash path detection on Windows by also searching usr\bin\bash.exe locations, which is where bash lives in many Git for Windows installations where bin\bash.exe does not exist.

• #310 `a4511ff` - Show the full model name in the footer status bar instead of truncating the provider prefix.

• #283 `91b292e` - Allow glob searches to target explicit absolute paths outside the workspace.

• #223 `811f252` - Show MCP server summary in the welcome panel and add configuration hints in the /mcp command output.

• #229 `fb35bca` - Replace chalk named color with theme-aware hex in session-directory warning.

• #303 `3d7e20e` - Point users to /provider instead of the removed /connect command in the welcome screen and the no-models-configured hint.

• #135 `0071b63` - Fix slash-activated skills not being recognized by the model due to missing system…
