+## [2.14.1] - 2026-07-25
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Tab completion on custom file-path prompts.** The `p. Enter a custom path`
+  branches of the OMEN and Markov training pickers, the combipow wordlist
+  prompt, and the rule cleanup/optimize output-path prompts used a bare
+  `input()` with no readline completer, so TAB did nothing. They now route
+  through `select_file_with_autocomplete` for consistent path autocompletion.
+- **Stale completer leak.** `select_file_with_autocomplete` and the
+  `_configure_readline`-based pickers now drop the path completer after a
+  selection, so later numeric-menu and y/n prompts no longer inherit file-path
+  tab completion.
+
