+# Roo Code 3.29.2 Release Notes (2025-10-27)
+
+This patch adds higher-context Chutes AI models, cleans up settings text, and fixes provider caching and free‑model pricing display.
+
+
+## Provider Updates
+
+* Chutes AI: Add LongCat‑Flash‑Thinking‑FP8 models (200K, 128K) for longer coding sessions with faster, cost‑effective performance (thanks leakless21!) ([#8426](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/8426))
+
+## QOL Improvements
+
+* Settings descriptions: Remove specific "Claude 3.7 Sonnet" version across locales to keep guidance current (thanks rwydaegh!) ([#8437](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/8437))
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+* Roo provider: Fix caching logic to emit correct usage data and apply proper protocol ([#8860](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/8860))
+* Free models: Hide pricing info and show zero cost to avoid confusion ([#8864](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/8864))
