  "title": "Add .continue/configs support for workspace-specific config loading",
  "summary": "Continue now loads configuration files from a .continue/configs directory, enabling workspace-local overrides without requiring global config.yaml edits.",
  "contribution": "Introduces a new config discovery path that allows per-workspace configuration overrides, reducing the need to edit global config.yaml files.",
  "impact": "Developers working on multi-project or multi-team workspaces can now configure Continue behavior locally without risking global config changes — reducing accidental misconfigurations and improving team workflow isolation. Operators should watch for edge cases where nested config directories may conflict or where legacy config.yaml is still referenced without explicit override. This change improves developer experience without altering core runtime behavior.",
