### Minor Changes

- [#14988](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/14988) [`9a55ea4`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/9a55ea4f0fd9255d1c736882bf3aa804b5b9c172) Thanks [@WebReflection](https://github.com/WebReflection)! - Add an experimental Search Ignored Paths setting that lists ignored folders or files, such as build output, that the agent's glob tool should still search

### Patch Changes

- [#15017](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/15017) [`e48c978`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/e48c9785c74940ff3318dc52e1b66346b764e8d4) Thanks [@WebReflection](https://github.com/WebReflection)! - Keep `.gitignore`d files and folders, such as `node_modules`, out of glob results and grep `include` searches, even when the pattern matches folder names, like `**/*`

- [#15056](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/15056) [`0e6da31`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/0e6da3104dd91d2c97bfe6fdc3e04bee6b811f43) - Fix grep failing with "Invalid ripgrep match output" when matched lines aren't valid UTF-8, such as in ISO-8859-1 / Windows-1252 encoded files

## CLI

### Minor Changes

- [#14988](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/14988) [`9a55ea4`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/9a55ea4f0fd9255d1c736882bf3aa804b5b9c172) Thanks [@WebReflection](https://github.com/WebReflection)! - Add an experimental Search Ignored Paths setting that lists ignored folders or files, such as build output, that the agent's glob tool should still search

- [#15004](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/15004) [`8f6c4e2`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/8f6c4e2644f6bfb0b03f5b2d81f77537c318a4b2) - Let the mobile app fork a session from a specific message onto a remote CLI: `create_session` accepts `cloneUpToMessageId`, imports only the transcript up to that message, and restores only the file edits made before it.

### Patch Changes

- [#15017](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/15017) [`e48c978`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/e48c9785c74940ff3318dc52e1b66346b764e8d4) Thanks [@WebReflection](https://github.com/WebReflection)! - Keep `.gitignore`d files and folders, such as `node_modules`, out of glob results and grep `include` searches, even when the pattern matches folder names, like `**/*`

- [#15056](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/15056) [`0e6da31`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/0e6da3104dd91d2c97bfe6fdc3e04bee6b811f43) - Fix grep failing with "Invalid ripgrep match output" when matched lines aren't valid UTF-8, such as in ISO-8859-1 / Windows-1252 encoded files

- [#15047](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/15047) [`fdb634f`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/fdb634f535409e8a35d6eeb165cc15c123e9d66e) - Keep MCP sign-in from resetting

  Automatic OAuth recovery no longer clears stored credentials another session just refreshed, and signing in to a remote MCP server now updates the authentication warning in every open session instead of only the one that started it. The optional MCP stream probe is also restricted to its own endpoint so it cannot rewrite OAuth metadata or token responses.

- [#14857](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/14857) [`37f81b1`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/37f81b109724e2d3d18b9281d7d575ced361ce29) Thanks [@mardausdennis](https://github.com/mardausdennis)! - Reduce CPU usage while Windows background jobs are running and improve stop handling when a job takes longer to finish.

- [#14857](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/pull/14857) [`5e99e9c`](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/commit/5e99e9c622cb35a975d9962015e939ca66ecb475) Thanks [@mardausdennis](https://github.com/mardausdennis)! - Fix Windows background jobs staying active after their command finishes or treating unrelated programs as part of the job. If a job cannot be stopped safely, the stop request fails with an error and the job output says why.
