 - Fixed an issue where manually saving chats in workspace manual-storage mode could appear unreliable during response streaming. The save button is now disabled while streaming to prevent partial saves.
 - Fixed an issue where in some places "No profile" was displayed instead of the localized text.
 - Fixed a bug in the Responses API of our OpenAI provider implementation where streamed whitespace chunks were discarded. We thank Oliver Kunc `OliverKunc` for his first contribution in resolving this issue. We appreciate your help, Oliver.
+- Fixed the Google Gemini model API. Switched to the default OpenAI-compatible API to retrieve the model list after Google changed the previous API, which stopped working.
 - Upgraded to .NET 9.0.13 & Rust 1.93.1.
 - Upgraded dependencies.
