TL;DR

• Mid-stream connection drops no longer eat your response. Partial output is now preserved when the connection breaks, and the spinner no longer gets stuck at "running tool."

• WSL2 mouse-wheel scrolling works again in Windows Terminal and VS Code (more below). A regression from 2.1.172 disabled scroll in that environment; update if you have been arrow-keying through output.

• Linux sandbox glob rules over large directory trees no longer blow up the Bash tool description. If a broad denyRead/allowRead glob was making your session unusable, this is the fix.

New in 2.1.179
