-### Bug Fixes
-
-- The `heph` CLI and `heph-tui` now survive a daemon restart. Previously the unix-socket client connected once and never reconnected, so an opt-in self-update or `heph daemon restart` left every subsequent call failing — `heph-tui` would sit on errors until relaunched. The client now reconnects on a dropped socket: a request that never went out is retried transparently, while a reply lost mid-request is surfaced (not silently retried) so a mutation is never double-applied. A long-running TUI self-heals on its next refresh tick.
-- Quick-add popover (⌘'): hand keyboard focus back to the previously active app when it hides, and stop the (now invisible) overlay from intercepting clicks where it used to sit.
