 - Agents: keep followup-runner session `totalTokens` aligned with post-compaction context by using last-call usage and shared token-accounting logic. (#14979) Thanks @shtse8.
 - Hooks/Plugins: wire 9 previously unwired plugin lifecycle hooks into core runtime paths (session, compaction, gateway, and outbound message hooks). (#14882) Thanks @shtse8.
 - Hooks/Tools: dispatch `before_tool_call` and `after_tool_call` hooks from both tool execution paths with rebased conflict fixes. (#15012) Thanks @Patrick-Barletta, @Takhoffman.
+- Hooks: replace loader `console.*` output with subsystem logger messages so hook loading errors/warnings route through standard logging. (#11029) Thanks @shadril238.
 - Discord: allow channel-edit to archive/lock threads and set auto-archive duration. (#5542) Thanks @stumct.
 - Discord tests: use a partial @buape/carbon mock in slash command coverage. (#13262) Thanks @arosstale.
 - Tests: update thread ID handling in Slack message collection tests. (#14108) Thanks @swizzmagik.
