# Approvals, handoffs and merges that behave

> 2026-10-20 · CLI 0.6.5 · Improved, Fixed · https://comity.so/changelog/2026-10-20-reliability-pass

Another round from running real agents side by side for hours. Update with `comity update`; omp users also run `comity init --tools omp` once.

## Improved

**Approvals stay clear.** An approval covers exactly what the approver saw. A new file under a protected path asks again under the same conflict, and the agent hears the moment it's approved.

**Merges are recognized.** Work merged as a squash, a merge commit or a rebase closes its intent, and pushing a branch is no longer mistaken for merging it.

**Picking up where you left off.** Restarted, resumed and reopened work continues in the same intent, across worktrees, instead of starting a duplicate.

**JavaScript too.** CommonJS projects (`require`, `module.exports`) get the same route and function tracking as TypeScript.

## Fixed

**omp:** messages are never lost when a command fails, and finished sessions no longer show as online.

**Less noise:** one conflict per overlap, one Slack post per block, and shorter, grouped briefings.
