 # Changelog
 
+## 0.10.6 — 2026-11-08
+
+- **Sync sign-in comes back by itself.** The browser now returns the sign-in to a one-off port on this machine (`127.0.0.1`) instead of a `vscode://` link. Browsers open such links only after a click, so when you were already signed in to the identity provider the editor kept waiting. Remote and web editors still use the link.
+
 ## 0.10.5 — 2026-11-08
 
 - **Sync button fixed.** It is now an icon only (a cloud; green with a broadcast icon once the model is shared), the same size on every page and theme. On a diagram it sits in the toolbar after **Export** instead of over it; in narrow windows and high contrast themes it no longer shrinks or loses its colour.
