🔄 Improved · Configuration Management Model selections now stick around after restarts, plus better plugin dependency handling

The /model command now remembers your selection even when projects pin different models, and you'll see which source (project vs managed settings) controls the startup model. Plugin installation got smarter too — it'll now install missing dependencies instead of just telling you the plugin already exists.

OAuth token refresh, HTML truncation, and context window calculations

Fixed OAuth sessions dying with "Please run /login" when tokens expire mid-session (now refreshes automatically), WebFetch hanging on huge HTML pages, and Opus 4.7 showing wrong context percentages due to incorrect window size calculations.

⚡ Improved · Performance Faster startup and native search tools on macOS/Linux
