  • Squirrel proposes changes to records that exist. Asking it to close a finding or reschedule an event used to leave you with a second one, since it could only propose new records. Tasks, findings, events, obligations, companies, assets, and systems can be updated from chat now, and each change appears as an ordinary suggestion you accept or dismiss. No chat turn can propose a deletion.
  • Cited text is easier to find in a document. A citation built from several cells highlights fragment by fragment in the viewer. Matches are held to the page the citation names. A scanned PDF with no text layer reports the missing layer, instead of a failed text match. Lineage covers what a citation is.
  • Three fixes on tables.
    • A pinned column stays put when the table scrolls sideways.
    • The last column takes the leftover width instead of leaving a dead strip.
    • A resizable column no longer measures itself 16 pixels too wide.
  • Events have status icons of their own, a diamond family with the same inner marks as tasks and findings, so the three read as one system.
  • Keyboard focus is visible again. A style reset was suppressing the focus ring on buttons, inputs, and selects, so anyone working by keyboard had nothing to follow.
  • A document opens at full width. The Details panel starts closed, and opens on its own only when you follow a link to a fact inside the document.
  • Updates to obligations and findings stop failing silently. An update suggestion that could not be applied used to fail silently or return an error; it now reports what it could not do. An item also belongs to one custom group at a time, and picking a group moves it rather than adding a second.
