Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix(ai): scope tool output sanitizer to legacy MCP-UI
 payloads
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Restore the guard removed in PR #256 so the cleanOutput block only runs
on outputs that actually need MCP-UI sanitization (uiResources, images,
or content[] with image entries). Without the guard, any non-canonical
plain-object tool result without `text`/`content[]`/`structuredContent`
keys was being replaced with `[Widget rendered]`, breaking every coding
tool (bash, read, write, edit, grep, find, ls, task tools) on multi-turn
replays — the model received the placeholder instead of the actual
command output.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] chore(release): v1.8.2

Promote to 1.8.2 stable. Includes a follow-up fix to scope the legacy
MCP-UI tool output sanitizer so it no longer touches modern canonical
payloads.
