- Add surgical differential rendering as the main feature
- Document the three rendering strategies (surgical, partial, full)
- Add performance metrics documentation
- Simplify component examples to be more concise
- Add comprehensive testing section with VirtualTerminal API
- Include testing best practices and performance testing guidance
- Remove duplicate TextEditor documentation section
- New renderDifferentialSurgical method with three strategies:
- SURGICAL: Only update specific changed lines (1-2 lines per render)
- PARTIAL: Clear and re-render from first change when line counts change
- FULL: Clear scrollback and re-render all when changes above viewport
- Preserves all content in scrollback buffer correctly
- Reduces redraws from ~14 lines to ~1.3 lines for common updates
- All 24 tests pass including scrollback preservation tests
- Massive performance improvement: 90% reduction in unnecessary redraws
- renderDifferential now correctly handles content that exceeds viewport
- When changes are above viewport, do full re-render with scrollback clear
- When changes are in viewport, do partial re-render from change point
- All tests pass, correctly preserves 100 items in scrollback
- Issue: Still re-renders too much (entire tail from first change)
- Create Terminal interface abstracting stdin/stdout operations for dependency injection
- Implement ProcessTerminal for production use with process.stdin/stdout
- Implement VirtualTerminal using @xterm/headless for accurate terminal emulation in tests
- Fix TypeScript imports for @xterm/headless module
- Move all component files to src/components/ directory for better organization
- Add comprehensive test suite with async/await patterns for proper render timing
- Fix critical TUI differential rendering bug when components grow in height
- Issue: Old content wasn't properly cleared when component line count increased
- Solution: Clear each old line individually before redrawing, ensure cursor at line start
- Add test verifying terminal content preservation and text editor growth behavior
- Update tsconfig.json to include test files in type checking
- Add benchmark test comparing single vs double buffer performance
The implementation successfully reduces flicker by only updating changed lines
rather than clearing entire sections. Both TUI implementations maintain the
same interface for backward compatibility.
Moved completed task documentation to done folder after implementing reasoning token
support for OpenAI models (o1, o3, gpt-5) across all renderers and APIs
- Remove redundant 'Reasoning Tokens' column (all models count them)
- Group by provider for better readability
- Clarify model limitations vs API limitations
- Simplify check marks to focus on thinking content availability
Added provider-specific reasoning/thinking token support for:
- OpenAI (o1, o3, gpt-5): Full reasoning events via Responses API, token counts via Chat Completions
- Groq: reasoning_format:"parsed" for Chat Completions, no summary support for Responses
- Gemini 2.5: extra_body.google.thinking_config with <thought> tag extraction
- OpenRouter: Unified reasoning parameter with message.reasoning field
- Anthropic: Limited support via OpenAI compatibility layer
Key improvements:
- Centralized provider detection based on baseURL
- parseReasoningFromMessage() extracts provider-specific reasoning content
- adjustRequestForProvider() handles provider-specific request modifications
- Smart reasoning support detection with caching per API type
- Comprehensive README documentation with provider support matrix
Fixes reasoning tokens not appearing for GPT-5 and other reasoning models.
- Extract and display reasoning tokens from both Chat Completions and Responses APIs
- Add smart preflight detection to check reasoning support per model/API (cached per agent)
- Support both reasoning_text (o1/o3) and summary_text (gpt-5) formats
- Display reasoning tokens with ⚡ symbol in console and TUI renderers
- Only send reasoning parameters to models that support them
- Fix event type from "thinking" to "reasoning" for consistency
Note: Chat Completions API only returns reasoning token counts, not content (by design).
Only Responses API exposes actual thinking/reasoning events.
- Show tool call count alongside token metrics in TUI and console renderers
- TUI: Display at bottom with format "↑X ↓Y ⚒Z"
- Console: Show metrics after assistant messages complete
- Counter increments on each tool_call event
- Fixed repository URLs to use git+https:// format
- Removed tsconfig.tsbuildinfo from clean scripts
- Updated README with clearer build instructions and dependency order
- Fixed bin paths to reference dist/cli.js correctly
- Ready for npm publishing with no warnings
- Set up npm workspaces for three packages: pi-tui, pi-agent, and pi (pods)
- Implemented dual TypeScript configuration:
- Root tsconfig.json with path mappings for development and type checking
- Package-specific tsconfig.build.json for clean production builds
- Configured lockstep versioning with sync script for inter-package dependencies
- Added comprehensive documentation for development and publishing workflows
- All packages at version 0.5.0 ready for npm publishing
