 - Gateway/thread routing: preserve Slack, Telegram, Mattermost, and ACP parent-thread delivery targets so subagent, cron, and stream-relay completion messages land back in the originating thread or topic. (#54840, #57056, #63228, #63506) Thanks @yzzymt.
 - Agents/timeouts: extend the default LLM idle window to 120s and keep silent no-token idle timeouts on recovery paths, so slow models can retry or fall back before users see an error.
 - Gateway/agents: preserve configured model selection and richer `IDENTITY.md` content across agent create/update flows and workspace moves, and fail safely instead of silently overwriting unreadable identity files. (#61577) Thanks @samzong.
+- Skills/TaskFlow: restore valid frontmatter fences for the bundled `taskflow` and `taskflow-inbox-triage` skills so they stay discoverable and loadable after updates. (#64469) Thanks @extrasmall0.
 - Windows/exec: settle supervisor waits from child exit state after stdout and stderr drain even when `close` never arrives, so CLI commands stop hanging or dying with forced `SIGKILL` on Windows. (#64072) Thanks @obviyus.
 - Browser/sandbox: prevent sandbox browser CDP startup hangs by recreating containers when the browser security hash changes and by waiting on the correct sandbox browser lifecycle. (#62873) Thanks @Syysean.
 - iMessage/self-chat: distinguish normal DM outbound rows from true self-chat using `destination_caller_id` plus chat participants, while preserving multi-handle self-chat aliases so outbound DM replies stop looping back as inbound messages. (#61619) Thanks @neeravmakwana.

 name: taskflow-inbox-triage
 description: Example TaskFlow authoring pattern for inbox triage. Use when messages need different treatment based on intent, with some routes notifying immediately, some waiting on outside answers, and others rolling into a later summary.

 name: taskflow
 description: Use when work should span one or more detached tasks but still behave like one job with a single owner context. TaskFlow is the durable flow substrate under authoring layers like Lobster, ACPX, plugins, or plain code. Keep conditional logic in the caller; use TaskFlow for flow identity, child-task linkage, waiting state, revision-checked mutations, and user-facing emergence.
