Fixes global installs with Bun 1.4.4 when Node isn't installed, and Windows setup refusals when Gateway paths differ only in letter case.
Fixes duplicate Canvas widgets and previews appearing as a chat reply finishes.
An unsaved Agent Files draft no longer saves into a different workspace after the agent is reconfigured; the editor offers Reload or Overwrite.
Built from 113 pull requests with contributions from 64 GitHub accounts.
