# Factory Droid v0.194.0: TypeScript SDK session messages and spec mode helper

> Two minor SDK additions give TypeScript callers more control over sessions — fetching messages from a session list entry and exiting specification mode programmatically. Several bug fixes land in the app for pinned mission proposals, credential error reporting, copy-paste line breaks, and the idle spinner.

## What changed


- **Session messages in SDK**: sessions returned by the TypeScript SDK session list can now fetch their own messages directly.
- **Specification mode SDK helper**: TypeScript SDK can take a session out of specification mode with a single call.
- **Pinned mission proposals**: pinned proposals now keep heading and full text instead of garbled rendering.
- **Custom model credential errors**: errors from a custom model's endpoint with no working credentials now reported immediately, no repeated retries.
- **Copied text line breaks**: copying text out of a session keeps line breaks (app).
- **Idle todo spinner**: todo list no longer shows a spinner when nothing is running (app).
