- Fix backend CI: add research_runs_router to the synthetic routes stub in
test_desktop_auth so studio.backend.main imports under the health-check test.
- Escape prompt-delimiter tags in the decision and synthesis prompts so gathered
web/document content cannot close an <untrusted_...> wrapper and inject
instructions into the local planner/decision/synthesis model.
- Extend the public-query sanitizer to redact Luhn-valid payment cards, phone
numbers, non-global IPs, and labeled private identifiers before a query can
reach web search.
- Reject nested credential keys in inferenceRequest and ragScope, not just
top-level keys, when persisting a durable run config.
- Treat maxSources as one budget shared across web and document sources
(collection and resume paths) instead of per type, which allowed up to 2x the
configured cap.
- Preserve document citations whose filename contains a closing bracket by
tokenizing valid citations before stripping invalid ones.
- Persist Deep Research off when switching to an external model and when enabling
Web Fetch so a refresh cannot rehydrate a mutually-exclusive state.
- Add regression tests for the query, prompt, citation, and config hardening.
