 - Skills/Security: restrict `download` installer `targetDir` to the per-skill tools directory to prevent arbitrary file writes. Thanks @Adam55A-code.
 - Skills/Linux: harden go installer fallback on apt-based systems by handling root/no-sudo environments safely, doing best-effort apt index refresh, and returning actionable errors instead of failing with spawn errors. (#17687) Thanks @mcrolly.
 - Web Fetch/Security: cap downloaded response body size before HTML parsing to prevent memory exhaustion from oversized or deeply nested pages. Thanks @xuemian168.
+- Infra/Fetch: ensure foreign abort-signal listener cleanup never masks original fetch successes/failures, while still preventing detached-finally unhandled rejection noise in `wrapFetchWithAbortSignal`. Thanks @Jackten.
 - Config/Gateway: make sensitive-key whitelist suffix matching case-insensitive while preserving `passwordFile` path exemptions, preventing accidental redaction of non-secret config values like `maxTokens` and IRC password-file paths. (#16042) Thanks @akramcodez.
 - Gateway/Config: prevent `config.patch` from falling back to full-array replacement when an object-array patch includes entries without `id`, so partial `agents.list` updates no longer risk deleting unrelated agents. (#17989) Thanks @stakeswky.
 - Dev tooling: harden git `pre-commit` hook against option injection from malicious filenames (for example `--force`), preventing accidental staging of ignored files. Thanks @mrthankyou.
