 - **Less caffeinated welcome animation** ([#9104](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9104)): Smooths the Roo hover animation so it is less distracting during long sessions while keeping the interface responsive.
 - **Auto-approval is now handled by Task** ([#9157](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9157)): Centralizes approval logic for commands, tools, MCP, and subtasks, reducing blocked prompts and making safeguards clearer.
 - **Consistent rounded buttons across the UI** ([#9150](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9150)): New Button component with variants/sizes delivers a cleaner, more predictable interface.
+- **Batched settings updates** ([#9165](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9165)): Applies multiple setting changes in one go, making saves faster and reducing UI flicker across Settings, Auto Approve, Command Execution, and MCP toggles.
+- **README badges render reliably** ([#9200](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9200)): Switched to badgen.net so badges are consistently visible; Installs and Rating are clear at a glance.

 - **Stop unwanted context condensing on settings save** ([#9108](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9108)): Saving settings no longer triggers early context condensing when your provider/model is unchanged, so active tasks retain history until thresholds are truly reached.
 - **Cloud/headless: prevent command_output from blocking** ([#9152](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9152)): Non‑blocking behavior avoids stalled tasks and intermittent timeouts.
 - **Model switch re‑applies selected profile** ([#9181](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9181)): Ensures task configuration stays in sync when switching providers/models.
+- **API Profiles apply immediately when provider/model unchanged** ([#9210](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9210)): Updates headers, baseUrl, service tier, and reasoning budgets without requiring a model change.
+- **Auto‑approval honors MCP server state** ([#9199](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9199)): Restores expected tool auto‑approval behavior (thanks bozoweed!).
+- **Issue Fixer reliability via REST + ProjectsV2** ([#9207](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9207)): Resolves sync errors and restores dependable triage.
 
 ## Misc Improvements
 
 - **Roo Code Cloud error logging** ([#9098](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9098)): Captures richer context for failed requests (status codes, response bodies, and request details), making it easier to understand and resolve provider and configuration issues.
-- **IPC: send messages to the current task** ([#9149](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9149)): Programmatically post text and images into an active task for automations and richer context.

+- **Stateless conversation continuity via OpenAI Responses API** ([#9203](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/9203)): Preserves context locally with encrypted reasoning items while requests remain stateless, improving privacy and reliability and simplifying behavior (no previous_response_id).
