# 13.16.0

ReleasedReleased on November 18, 2024

**Features:**

-   Added new [`defaultBrowser`](/app/references/configuration#Browser) configuration option to specify the default browser to launch. This option only affects the first browser launch; changing this option after the browser is already launched will have no effect. Addresses [#6646](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/6646).
    

**Bugfixes:**

-   Fixed an issue where some JS assets were not properly getting sourcemaps included with the vite dev server if they had a cache busting query parameter in the URL. Fixed some scenarios to ensure that the sourcemaps that were included by the vite dev server were inlined. Addressed in [#30606](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/30606).
    

**Misc:**

-   Updated the protocol to be able to flex logic based on project config. Addresses [#30560](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/30560).
