 - Agents/MCP: reuse bundled MCP runtimes across turns in the same session, while recreating them when MCP config changes and disposing stale runtimes cleanly on session rollover. (#55090) Thanks @allan0509.
 - Memory/QMD: honor `memory.qmd.update.embedInterval` even when regular QMD update cadence is disabled or slower by arming a dedicated embed-cadence maintenance timer, while avoiding redundant timers when regular updates are already frequent enough. (#37326) Thanks @barronlroth.
 - Memory/QMD: add `memory.qmd.searchTool` as an exact mcporter tool override, so custom QMD MCP tools such as `hybrid_search` can be used without weakening the validated `searchMode` config surface. (#27801) Thanks @keramblock.
+- Memory/QMD: keep reset and deleted session transcripts in QMD session export so daily session resets do not silently drop most historical recall from `memory_search`. (#30220) Thanks @pushkarsingh32.
 - Memory/QMD: rebind collections when QMD reports a changed pattern but omits path metadata, so config pattern changes stop being silently ignored on restart. (#49897) Thanks @Madruru.
 - Agents/memory flush: keep daily memory flush files append-only during embedded attempts so compaction writes do not overwrite earlier notes. (#53725) Thanks @HPluseven.
 - Web UI/markdown: stop bare auto-links from swallowing adjacent CJK text while preserving valid mixed-script path and query characters in rendered links. (#48410) Thanks @jnuyao.
