- Git sync now handles offline scenarios gracefully — changes are committed locally when offline and automatically sync when connectivity is restored.
- Previously unpushed commits are now pushed when back online, even without new changes.

### Views

- Columns can now be resized by dragging the column header edges. Column widths are persisted and restored across sessions.
- Date pickers now have an optional clear button to remove the selected date.

### Editor

- Pasting markdown content with YAML frontmatter now automatically extracts properties and merges them into the note's properties panel.
- Inserting a template via the slash command now merges the template's properties with the existing note — template properties act as defaults while existing values are preserved.
- Clicking on images or videos now opens a clean fullscreen overlay with a dark backdrop for better viewing.

### Settings

- A 24-hour time format option is now available in `Settings → Preferences`. The setting applies throughout the app including Views, the editor, and the assistant.

- `CMD/Ctrl + P` now allows you to create notes if the query doesn’t match any existing notes at either the Workspace Root or in the current folder.
- The "Today" date now automatically updates when the app regains focus after being left open overnight.
- Collapsed headings now properly preserve inline content visibility, and outline generation correctly includes text from doclinks and file-links.

### Fixes

- Fixed an issue where the Custom AI provider settings error messages would fail silently when an exception lacked a message property.
- `Windows` — Fixed Graph not showing correct connections for links between notes under folders.
- `Windows` — Fixed an issue where typing wikilinks to directly create notes would fail to correctly reflect the changes in the tree.
- Date range selection in Ask Octarine now enforces a single date context and shows a check icon for the selected range.

### Changes

- `Windows` — Wikilinks command now works with providing suggestions when typing `/` and \`\` both.
- Wikilinks command will not show `create at root` option if the query contains a `/`
