-- Fix a fatal "Could not resolve authentication method" crash when a GPT/ChatGPT
-  session token is invalidated mid-session (e.g. the OAuth refresh token was
-  rotated by signing in on another machine). The provider now surfaces a typed
-  401 that routes into the standard re-authentication path instead of an
-  uncaught error — prompting `/login` rather than dumping a traceback.
-- Render the `ImplementAndJudge` chain as `Implement & Judge — <brief>` in the
-  TUI instead of the raw `ImplementAndJudge(4 args: …)` argument dump.

+  dump; it now displays a clean `Implement & Judge — <brief>` label matching

+## 🆕 What's New in 0.53.0
 
-- **Model-aware thinking levels.** The thinking selector and Shift+Tab cycle now scope reasoning effort to what the active GPT-5-family model accepts; unsupported persisted levels are clamped before the API call.
-- **Cleaner diff cards.** Diff syntax highlighting no longer paints an opaque code-theme background over green/red row tints — tints show through on every terminal.
-- **Truecolor in VS Code terminals.** Integrated terminals reporting `TERM_PROGRAM=vscode` (and forks) are promoted to truecolor so diff tints don't fall back to 16-color mode.
-- **No duplicate welcome banner on reload.** Same-session reloads (`/model`, `/theme`, `/thinking`, …) keep the existing banner instead of stacking a second splash.
-- **Update notice moved to footer.** The persistent "Restart to apply" / "Update available" line renders below the status/clock row, clear of the input box.
-- **Safer Homebrew self-upgrades.** Silent `brew upgrade` runs with cleanup/auto-update disabled so the in-use Cellar version isn't deleted mid-session.
+- **GPT/ChatGPT re-auth crash fixed.** A "Could not resolve authentication method" crash when a session token is invalidated mid-session (OAuth refresh rotated on another machine) now routes into the standard `/login` re-authentication path instead of dumping a traceback.
+- **Cleaner `ImplementAndJudge` label in the TUI.** The chain now shows `Implement & Judge — <brief>` instead of the raw `ImplementAndJudge(4 args: …)` argument dump.
