/context now shows token costs for skills and MCP servers.
env_key in config now accepts an array of environment variable names.

/terminal-setup now shows your terminal's color support level and which themes are available.
grok setup --json prints your team's managed configuration without installing it.
Messages you type while the model waits on tasks now stay queued; pressing Enter twice sends them immediately by cancelling the current turn.

Subagent task and spawn_subagent tools now accept an optional model parameter in the CLI.

Mid-turn wait spinners now correctly show "Waiting on task output…" instead of Thinking.
Scrollbar thumb is now visible in the oscura-midnight theme.
Status messages for background work now end with a period.
Editing queued prompts no longer freezes the terminal or duplicates text into the composer.
