 ### Fixes
 
+- Control UI: preserve manually entered Gateway Access tokens while editing URL formatting within the same normalized gateway endpoint, but clear them when the endpoint scope changes. Fixes #41545; carries forward #41546 and #42001. Thanks @wsyjh8 and @llagy0020.
 - Agents/models: keep per-agent primary models strict when `fallbacks` is omitted, so probe-only custom providers are not tried as hidden fallback candidates unless the agent explicitly opts in. Fixes #73332. Thanks @haumanto.
 - Cron/Telegram: preserve explicit `:topic:` delivery targets over stale session-derived thread IDs when isolated cron announces to Telegram forum topics. Carries forward #59069; refs #49704 and #43808. Thanks @roytong9.
 - Build/runtime: write the runtime-postbuild stamp after `pnpm build` writes the build stamp, so the next CLI invocation does not re-sync runtime artifacts after a successful build. Fixes #73151. Thanks @bittoby.
