Gateway singleton lock changes connector operation behavior.
New `skills.auto_load` config pins skills into every session prompt.

New Features

CLI supports `--format stream-json` for structured output.
Desktop chat UI includes a font picker.
One-click local engine updates available.
Plugin uninstall feature added to Plugins hub.
New video models LTX 2.5 and Kling O3 added to catalog.

Improvements

Website pages for catalog plugins and authors added.

Upgrade Notes

Review new configuration options like `skills.auto_load` and `mcp.discovery_concurrency`. Desktop behavior changes require testing connector operations. Ensure downstream consumers handle the new singleton lock mechanism.
