## Release Notes

### Improved

- **Background hook verbosity**: Background hooks (post-start, post-switch) now show a single-line summary by default instead of per-hook output. Use `-v` to see detailed output with expanded commands. We're open to feedback on this change — let us know in [#690](https://github.com/max-sixty/worktrunk/issues/690). (thanks @clutchski for reporting)

### Internal

- Fixed dead Apple documentation link in copy-ignored rationale. ([#743](https://github.com/max-sixty/worktrunk/pull/743))
