 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Changed
+- Auto-summarization settings now save as soon as a changed row is
+  applied, including cadence/provider/toggle changes and model edits,
+  without requiring a separate save step.
+- Auto-summarization setting rows now visually separate grey labels
+  from regular-colour values.
+- The active-thread summary in the tab bar is now constrained to the
+  active tab's width instead of spanning the whole top row.
+- Sidebar summary text now wraps from the full summary text instead of
+  using an ellipsized single-line value.
+
+### Fixed
+- Removed the redundant "Back to Settings" row from the
+  Agents / Auto-summarization settings screen.

- - abc1234 if no tag exists yet
-
- 4. Wire version into the release workflow
-
- Update .gitea/workflows/release.yml lines 31-35 to inject the pushed tag:
-
- go build -trimpath \
-   -ldflags="-s -w -X main.version=${{ github.ref_name }}" \
-   -o dist/patterm-${{ github.ref_name }}-linux-amd64 \
-   ./cmd/patterm
-
- github.ref_name is the tag name (e.g. v0.0.1) because the workflow only
- triggers on tags: ['v*'].
-
- 5. Update inline doc comment
-
- cmd/patterm/main.go header comment (lines 5-11) — add the --version form
- to the usage block. SPEC.md/CLAUDE.md already use --, no change needed there.
-
- Out of scope
-
- - Surfacing version in MCP whoami (the hardcoded "version": "0.1.0" in
- internal/mcp/protocol.go:27 is the MCP protocol version, not the patterm
- binary version — leave it).
- - Renaming any existing flags.
- - Adding short forms like -p for --project.
-
- Critical files
-
- - cmd/patterm/main.go — import swap, --version wiring, version var, header comment
- - cmd/patterm/debug_harness.go — import swap
- - Makefile lines 38-39 — VERSION var + ldflags
- - .gitea/workflows/release.yml lines 31-35 — ldflags
- - go.mod / go.sum — add github.com/spf13/pflag
-
- Verification
-
- 1. go build -o ./bin/patterm ./cmd/patterm (without Makefile) → still builds, version reports dev.
- 2. make patterm → ./bin/patterm --version prints patterm v0.0.1 (commit <sha>, built <date>).
- 3. ./bin/patterm -h → help text shows --project string and --version lines.
- 4. ./bin/patterm -project /tmp → pflag rejects with usage error (confirms -- is enforced).
- 5. ./bin/patterm --project /tmp → starts normally.
- 6. ./bin/patterm mcp-stdio --socket /tmp/s --identity x → existing path still works (will fail to connect, but should parse flags fine).
- 7. ./bin/patterm debug-harness --scenario internal/harness/scenarios/spawn_process_via_palette.json → harness still runs.
- 8. go test ./... and go test ./internal/harness/... — both green.
- 9. Push a temporary tag locally and inspect git describe output; confirm release workflow's ${{ github.ref_name }} substitution matches the tag.
