## What changed


- **Font size setting**: Slider in Settings scales the interface; applied before window paints so launch no longer flashes at the old size.
- **Web search**: Models that support it can search the web during a task. Toggle in Settings. Searches and results appear in transcript and persist on session reload.
- **Extended thinking budget fix**: Cline Pass extended thinking budgets now reach the provider again — they silently stopped applying when the gateway moved off the generic OpenAI-compatible path.
- **Hub shutdown conflict fixed**: Two Cline installs on different builds no longer shut each other's Hub down in a loop, which was killing live sessions with an abnormal disconnect.
- **Hub replacement fixed**: The app no longer replaces a Hub that is still serving sessions. It attaches instead; swap happens once the Hub goes idle.
- **"Update required" dialog fix**: No longer interrupts when the Hub is only finishing its own update — this app is already the newer build, and the Hub replaces itself once its sessions end.
- **Idle plugin sandbox processes reclaimed** instead of lingering for the session's lifetime.
- **Model catalog refreshed**: Adds Crusoe as a provider; updates model lists and per-provider default models.
