## New Features

- 📁 **Filesystem image drag-and-drop restored** — Drop images from your file browser directly into notes to attach them without navigating dialogs.

## Improvements

- 🔍 **Stable find selection while typing** — Search selection stays where you expect it while you refine your search terms instead of jumping around.
- 🤖 **AI launcher stays in corner** — The AI launcher appears in the fixed corner position instead of floating mid-editor.
- 📋 **Underscores preserved in note headings** — Note headings keep their underscores intact instead of treating them as formatting syntax.
- 📂 **Fold headings through dividers** — Heading folds now work correctly across horizontal-rule dividers instead of stopping early.
- 🔤 **Accurate multilingual word counts** — CJK and multilingual word counting now uses correct segmentation rules instead of Latin-only patterns.

## Stability and Fixes

- Preserved Safari IME nested-list commits so composition input completes correctly.

- Preserved first property and type changes on new notes instead of dropping them.
- Stabilized aliased table wikilinks and guarded table serialization against malformed content.
- Contained editor remount and update loops that could cause performance degradation.
- Excluded note swaps from editor history to prevent history-free transitions from corrupting undo state.
- Kept image-heavy notes responsive by optimizing rendering and reducing colored highlight jitter.
- Stopped background git auth prompts from interrupting workflows.
- Contained stale sheet runtime errors instead of propagating them to the UI.
- Used IPv4 loopback for local Ollama on Windows to fix connection failures.
- Piped Codex and Antigravity prompts via stdin to fix Windows os error 206.
- Restored Windows editor links that were broken by path handling changes.
- Shared inline markdown stripping contract across renderers for consistent formatting.
- Preserved editor context and transaction typing during refresh cycles.
- Narrowed guarded table content checks and used safe table comparisons.
- Returned mutation flush promise explicitly to fix async state tracking.
- Refreshed inspector metadata from vault entries to keep displays current.
- Folded headings through dividers correctly.
- Stabilized colored text highlights to reduce visual jitter.
