Executive summary

This week was heavily focused on frontend and publishing reliability work. The main themes were:

Improving draft and publish reliability across desktop and web.

Expanding web document editing with shared toolbar/publish behavior.

Fixing editor UX issues, especially around embeds, comments, links, and media block selection.

Running a broad React Doctor / frontend cleanup pass covering correctness, hooks, accessibility, dead code, and polish.

Improving desktop platform behavior, including Windows auto-update flow and draft handling.

Continuing longer-running work on the knowledge manager agent and optional publish message stack.
