+**Upgrade notes:**
+- The bundled core stays at 0.75.0 and the control-plane protocol at 48. Nothing is cleared; the request history, stored payloads and settings carry over.
+
+**Menu bar (macOS):**
+- The second line under today's tokens now shows the generation speed of the last minute ("42 t/s") instead of today's cost. It shows a dash in place of the number when no request finished in the last minute. The cost is still in the opened menu and in the tooltip, which now also gives the speed.
+- While requests are running, a band of light sweeps across the mark instead of the small dot; in the numbers-only style it sweeps across the numbers. It stops while the menu is open and stands still when Reduce Motion is on.
