 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.25.2] - 2026-06-12
+
+### Added
+
+- Added `tests/tasks/specific/console/` task package with a "Console" tab containing `console_output` and `print_numpy_output` tasks for testing plain and rich console output rendering.
+- Registered the new `console` subpackage in `UI_TAB_ORDER` in `tests/tasks/specific/__init__.py`.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed square-bracket content being silently discarded from console output. Stream text from the Jupyter kernel is now wrapped in `Text.from_ansi()` before display, so literal `[text]` in `print()` output is preserved while ANSI styling from `rich.print()` continues to render correctly.
