 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.3.0] - 2026-10-20
+### Added
+- **Built-in editors**
+  - `.md` and `.markdown` files open in a rich Markdown editor — tables, task lists, front matter, Mermaid, source mode, image paste and drop — whose relative links open in place, with `#heading` links and per-pane Back/Forward ([#929](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/929), [#975](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/975), [#1172](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1172)).
+  - A built-in PNG/JPEG image editor (markup, redact, crop, pixel tools) saves in place; Markdown images render at the size the document states, as on GitHub, with resize handles ([#1148](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1148), [#1174](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1174)).
+  - `dor o` is short for `dor open`, and a bare `dor open` opens a fuzzy file picker that shows each file's handler; `builtin:code` opens any text file in Monaco ([#930](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/930), [#965](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/965), [#1092](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1092)). Confirmed terminal file links such as `[Image #2]` open in a Dor viewer ([#953](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/953)).
+- **Reopen** — command-mode `u` or `dor reopen` brings back closed Surfaces and Workspaces; clean viewers and untouched shells now close without a confirmation ([#967](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/967)).
+- **Tools** — a Break button turns a Tool back into a plain terminal and moves its page into a browser pane; Tools hidden and idle for 30 minutes stop and restart when shown, restoring their state when they opt in ([#980](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/980), [#961](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/961)).
+- `dor` commands work from helper terminals without promoting them ([#952](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/952)).
+- Pi agent sessions resume across app restart ([#898](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/898)).
+- Settings → About names the exact build (official, development, or self-host) with a Copy details button; Activity settings moved under Notifications ([#1106](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1106)).
+- A "Copy failed" dialog appears when a clipboard write fails every way, with diagnostics to share ([#1091](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1091)).
+- Pocket: "Sign out and forget this phone" removes every paired computer and its push registrations ([#1251](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1251)).
+- 🖥️ **Workspaces** — right-click a tab to Rename, Pin right, Copy ref, Move to new window, or Close, with `dor workspace pin` / `unpin`; tabs size to their names and animate reorders; Pocket groups its session list by Workspace ([#1009](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1009), [#1045](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1045), [#956](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/956)).
+- 🖥️ ⌘⇧T / File → Reopen Closed on macOS, including closed windows ([#967](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/967)).
+- 🖥️ On macOS, a frozen window is sampled and restarted onto the still-running terminals ([#993](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/993)).
+- 🖥️ Labs: "No-confirm delayed kill" replaces close confirmations with a 10-second restore window ([#969](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/969)).
+
+### Changed
+- Surface and Workspace ids are `surface:<n>` / `workspace:<n>`: unique across the app, never reused, and unchanged when a pane moves. `DORMOUSE_SURFACE_ID` carries the same string. `dor list --id-format` and the `surface_ref` / `workspace_ref` JSON keys are removed, and old forms like `3` or `pane-…` are refused. Layouts saved by older builds are discarded on the first launch after upgrading; settings, pairings, and Tool trust are kept ([#1085](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1085)).
+- A Tool lasts one run: when its command quits, crashes, or fails to boot, the pane becomes a plain terminal, and only the run Dormouse launched may open files ([#979](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/979), [#1061](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1061)).
+- Pane drag and drop: drop on a pane's middle to swap, on its outer thirds to split, or on gutters and window edges; pause on an edge and slide along it to drop beside a group of panes (replacing scroll-wheel scope cycling); Escape cancels; Tool and browser panes drag and resize like terminals ([#1177](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1177), [#905](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/905), [#1168](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1168)).
+- Alerts are never silently dropped: a task finishing while you watch becomes a TODO, deferral waits only while a program is confirmed busy, only output that changes the screen counts as working, and "pause" is now "defer" ([#1080](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1080), [#1083](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1083), [#1171](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1171), [#1107](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1107)).
+- The terminal context panel is denser and torn from its source pane, with the other panes dimmed behind it ([#1010](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1010)).
+- Browser panes nobody can see stop streaming; iframe pages keep their origin and data across Reload ([#958](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/958)).
+- Settings → Network levels are renamed "Nowhere", "Local networks only", "Anywhere", and "Anywhere, through \<your Relay>" ([#1039](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1039)).
+- Pocket asks for a passkey far less often: it stays signed in across launches, and reconnects to a recently used computer within that computer's presence window ([#1044](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1044)).
+- Only a paired phone can register for push notifications. Phones paired before this release keep their registrations, but must pair again to re-enable push ([#1226](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1226)).
+- Natural Voice (formerly managed voice, still a Hosted preview) enrolls separately from remote control, offers a curated set of voices, works in VS Code, and deletes its token at Hosted when turned off ([#999](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/999), [#1000](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1000), [#1191](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1191), [#1207](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1207)).
+- A terminal link that opens another app names it in a confirmation, a document link to an HTML or SVG page asks first, and dangerous Windows protocol handlers are blocked ([#1101](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1101), [#1201](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1201)).
+- The pairing approval dialog shows only the device names Pocket itself sends ([#1163](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1163)).
+
+### Fixed
+- Security hardening: safe path quoting for PowerShell and fish, control and bidi characters refused in Tool definitions and links, a tighter webview CSP, no repo-configured git fsmonitor, planted Windows executables and network-share browser paths refused, Playwright loaded only from its own install, owner-only logs, and stricter Local networks and passkey checks ([#1033](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1033), [#1065](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1065), [#1060](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1060), [#1040](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1040), [#1197](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1197), [#1162](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1162), [#1034](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1034), [#988](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/988), [#1031](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1031), [#1224](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1224), [#1240](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1240), [#1223](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1223), [#1243](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1243), [#1237](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1237), [#1242](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1242)).
+- Copying goes through the host's native clipboard, so copies no longer fail intermittently ([#1198](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1198)).
+- On Windows, WSL and Git Bash terminals start correctly again, shells stop promptly on close, typing no longer lags while ports are probed, and copy-editor keys no longer leak to the terminal ([#1253](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1253), [#985](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/985), [#928](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/928), [#951](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/951)).
+- Agent-browser panes no longer freeze on a stale tab, hover and wheel reach unselected browser panes, and narrow viewports render cleanly and survive a provider swap; `dor agent-browser dor-diagnostics` reports on a frozen stream ([#1176](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1176), [#1175](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1175), [#1100](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1100), [#1124](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1124)).
+- App restart resumes every supported agent, including Codex 0.160, agents interrupted mid-reply, and narrow or hidden panes ([#960](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/960)).
+- A crashed full-screen program no longer leaves mouse modes stuck, and starting Dormouse from Claude Code no longer turns off transcript saving in its panes ([#1157](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1157)).
+- Restarting a command in place no longer rings a spurious exit alert, and a serving Tool shows its TODO pill ([#976](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/976)).
+- A shell displaced by session restore stops instead of streaming into the pane ([#1050](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1050), [#1070](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1070)).
+- Pane resizing follows the pointer when minimum sizes clamp the layout ([#901](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/901)).
+- `dor ensure` and `dor tool` accept `--flag=value` before `--`, and `dor kill` / `dor reopen` help shows valid JSON ([#1116](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1116), [#1184](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1184)).
+- Enabling Pocket push no longer fails on removed or other-account computers, and a removed computer's push registration is retired ([#1095](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1095), [#1238](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1238), [#1239](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1239)).
+- One-time connection: a stalled attempt can be retried, and the phone page shows expiry at the deadline ([#918](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/918), [#916](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/916)).
+- Fixed update approval during the launch check, `dor` request routing across windows, VS Code terminal adoption on reload, and lost pairing outcomes ([#959](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/959)).
+- 🔌 Closing VS Code shuts terminals down gracefully, and a malformed theme push no longer half-applies ([#983](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/983)).
+- 🔌 On Windows, remote control between VS Code windows uses an unpredictable pipe name ([#1252](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1252)).
+- 🖥️ macOS logout or restart with Dormouse open no longer aborts ([#990](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/990)).
+- 🖥️ On macOS, Cmd+C/X/V and undo work inside Tool editors through a native Edit menu ([#943](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/943)).
+- 🖥️ Windows have a minimum size and reopen on screen ([#1058](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1058)).
+- 🖥️ Updated rustls for GHSA-2mjx-qc3c-rqvc ([#1073](https://github.com/diffplug/dormouse/pull/1073)).
