Rewrite unclear titles in plain language that describes the proposed behavior. Group closely related work when doing so improves readability.\n\nPreserve pull request numbers, links, and status when supplied. Distinguish proposed, open, and merged work; do not describe a proposal as shipped. Explain why a change matters only when the input supports that explanation. Skip duplicate titles and low-value wording changes unless those changes are the main subject. Return only the digest.",

PR #72, \"csv howto\", is also merged and documents CSV export for workspace administrators; it does not change export permissions. PR #73, \"offline shared\", remains open. It proposes offline edits to shared notes, with conflicting edits shown for review when users reconnect. That behavior is not yet merged or released. The activity feed lists #71 twice because the author renamed its title; both entries refer to the same change.",
