+## [1.0.5] - 2025-02-21
+
+### Added
+
+- **Exact match option** – When enabled, the entire message must exactly match the trigger (e.g. `!` triggers only on messages that are just `!`, not `hello!`).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Cross-world friends for auto-accept** – Auto-accept now works when a friend invites you from another world or while visiting another world (fallback to name-only match when world ID differs).
+
 ## [1.0.4] - 2025-02-20
 
 ### Added
