Read-only commands stop mutating settings, and offline costs are accurate
We've patched several quiet hazards in how the system operates under the hood. Previously, when you ran terminal commands like usage report that were supposed to simply read data, the system would aggressively overwrite your Claude or Codex config files behind your back, and if the app was killed mid-write, it could completely ruin your configuration file. The app now behaves itself: read-only commands absolutely will not touch your settings, and the actual installation flows now use "atomic writes" — guaranteeing the entire file is safely written before swapping it in, leaving no broken files even if it crashes mid-way. Additionally, for "offline cold starts" (when you have no internet and no cached price table), we fixed the built-in fallback prices where the cost of the newest Opus 4.6 model was drastically underestimated by 3×. Now your cost estimates are accurate even completely offline. It's like using a library catalog computer: it used to secretly reset your PIN just because you searched for a book, and a power outage could erase your card; now it sticks to reading only, and tells you exactly the right late fees even when the library's internet is down.
