-## What's new in beta.23
+## What's new in beta.36
 
-- About section now shows "vX.X.X available" label when an update is available (not just button label change)
+### Bug fixes
-- Sign-in: fixed app showing signed out after login window closes — cookies and cached auth now correctly set IsSignedIn=true
+- Settings no longer incorrectly shows "Not signed in" when limits are working
-- Sign-in: added brief delay before refresh so WebView2 user data folder is fully released by LoginWindow before reuse
+- Session Diary now shows correctly after the first successful refresh
-- Wider cookie domain filter (anthropic.com included alongside claude.ai)
+- Extra Usage Credits section now restored from cache on startup
-- Broader JS paths for email and org ID in bootstrap response
+- Plan name, overage, and prepaid credits are now cached and shown immediately on launch
+- App now loads cached state instantly on startup before the background refresh completes
