* Add get_commands RPC for headless clients
Headless clients like Emacs can now query which commands are available.
Previously they could only discover file-based prompt templates by
scanning the filesystem; extension commands and skills were invisible.
The response includes each command's name, description, and source
(extension, template, or skill). Commands appear in the same order
as the TUI's autocomplete: extension commands first, then templates,
then skills.
Built-in TUI commands (/settings, /fork, etc.) are excluded since
they require the interactive UI. Commands like /compact have dedicated
RPC equivalents instead.
* Add location and path to get_commands response
Clients can show where commands come from (user/project/path) and
display file paths in tooltips. The data is already available on
templates and skills - just exposing it.
Breaking changes:
- Settings: 'hooks' and 'customTools' arrays replaced with 'extensions'
- CLI: '--hook' and '--tool' flags replaced with '--extension' / '-e'
- API: HookMessage renamed to CustomMessage, role 'hookMessage' to 'custom'
- API: FileSlashCommand renamed to PromptTemplate
- API: discoverSlashCommands() renamed to discoverPromptTemplates()
- Directories: commands/ renamed to prompts/ for prompt templates
Migration:
- Session version bumped to 3 (auto-migrates v2 sessions)
- Old 'hookMessage' role entries converted to 'custom'
Structural changes:
- src/core/hooks/ and src/core/custom-tools/ merged into src/core/extensions/
- src/core/slash-commands.ts renamed to src/core/prompt-templates.ts
- examples/hooks/ and examples/custom-tools/ merged into examples/extensions/

Based on discussion in #293
- Move compaction.ts to src/core/compaction/compaction.ts
- Extract branch summarization to src/core/compaction/branch-summarization.ts
- Add index.ts to re-export all compaction utilities
- Update all imports across the codebase
- Removed Attachment from agent package (now in web-ui/coding-agent)
- Agent.prompt now takes (text, images?: ImageContent[])

- Updated mom package for new agent API
Remaining: Fix AgentInterface.ts to compose UserMessageWithAttachments
- Renamed AppMessage to AgentMessage throughout
- New agent-loop.ts with AgentLoopContext, AgentLoopConfig

- Attachment not exported from pi-agent-core
- ProviderTransport removed but still referenced
- messageTransformer -> convertToLlm migration incomplete
- CustomMessages declaration merging not working properly
- CompactionEntry<T> and CompactionResult<T> now have optional details?: T
- appendCompaction() accepts optional details parameter
- Hooks can return compaction.details to store custom data
- Enables structured compaction with ArtifactIndex (see #314)
- Fix CompactionResult export location (now from compaction.ts)
- Update plan with remaining compaction refactor items
- Merge branch event into session with before_branch/branch reasons
- Add before_switch, before_clear, shutdown reasons
- before_* events can be cancelled with { cancel: true }
- Update RPC commands to return cancelled status
- Add shutdown event on process exit
- New example hooks: confirm-destructive, dirty-repo-guard, auto-commit-on-exit
fixes#278
- Move RPC files to modes/rpc/ directory
- Add properly typed RpcCommand and RpcResponse types
- Expose full AgentSession API via RPC commands:
- State: get_state
- Model: set_model, cycle_model, get_available_models
- Thinking: set_thinking_level, cycle_thinking_level
- Queue: set_queue_mode
- Compaction: compact, set_auto_compaction
- Bash: bash, abort_bash
- Session: get_session_stats, export_html, switch_session, branch, etc.
- Add RpcClient class for programmatic access
- Rewrite tests to use RpcClient instead of raw process spawning
- All commands support optional correlation ID for request/response matching
