Add --no-tools flag that allows starting pi without any built-in tools,
enabling extension-only tool setups (e.g., pi-ssh-remote).
- Add --no-tools flag to CLI args parsing
- Handle --tools '' (empty string) as equivalent to no tools
- Fix system prompt to not show READ-ONLY mode when no tools (extensions may provide write capabilities)
- Add tests for new flag and system prompt behavior
fixes#555
Tools now use ExtensionRunner.createContext() instead of a separate
inline context factory. This ensures tools and event handlers share
the same context, fixing ctx.shutdown() and other context methods.
- Made ExtensionRunner.createContext() public
- Changed wrapRegisteredTools to accept ExtensionRunner instead of getContext callback
- Create ExtensionRunner when SDK custom tools are present (not just extensions)
- Removed redundant inline context factory from sdk.ts
The tool execution context was created with a no-op shutdown handler.
Now it delegates to ExtensionRunner.shutdown() which uses the handler
set by the mode via initialize().
Adds --no-extensions CLI flag that skips automatic extension discovery
while still allowing explicit -e paths. Three modes now available:
1. Default: auto-discover + any -e additions
2. --no-extensions: no extensions at all
3. --no-extensions -e foo.js: only load explicit extensions
Useful for debugging or running subagent instances without auto-discovered
extensions.

Skip new version check at startup when set. Useful for Nix or other
package manager installs where npm install is not used.
Also documents PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR and other environment variables
in the README.

- Replace per-extension closures with shared ExtensionRuntime
- Split context actions: ExtensionContextActions (required) + ExtensionCommandContextActions (optional)
- Rename LoadedExtension to Extension, remove setter methods
- Change runner.initialize() from options object to positional params
- Derive hasUI from uiContext presence (no separate param)
- Add warning when extensions override built-in tools
- RPC and print modes now provide full command context actions
BREAKING CHANGE: Extension system types and initialization API changed.
See CHANGELOG.md for migration details.
When enabledModels is configured without thinking level suffixes (e.g.,
'claude-opus-4-5' instead of 'claude-opus-4-5:high'), the scoped model's
default 'off' thinking level was overriding defaultThinkingLevel from
settings.
Now thinkingLevel in ScopedModel is optional (undefined means 'not
explicitly specified'). When passing to SDK, undefined values are filled
with defaultThinkingLevel from settings.
Adds StdinBuffer class (adapted from OpenTUI, MIT license) to split
batched stdin into individual sequences before they reach components.
This fixes key presses being dropped when batched with release events,
which commonly occurs over SSH due to network buffering.
- Each handleInput() call now receives a single event
- matchesKey() and isKeyRelease() work correctly without batching awareness
- Properly buffers incomplete escape sequences across chunks
- Handles bracketed paste mode
Addresses #538
When a user edits settings.json while pi is running (e.g., adding
enabledModels), those settings would be lost when pi saved other
changes (e.g., changing thinking level via Shift+Tab).
The fix re-reads the file before saving and merges the current file
contents with in-memory changes, so external edits are preserved.
Adds test coverage for SettingsManager.
--no-extensions now skips discovery but still loads extensions
specified via -e flags. This gives users three modes:
1. Default: auto-discover + any -e additions
2. --no-extensions: no extensions at all
3. --no-extensions -e foo.js: only load foo.js, skip discovery
fixes#524
Extension UI dialogs (select, confirm, input) now support a timeout option
that auto-dismisses with a live countdown display. Simpler alternative to
manually managing AbortSignal for timed dialogs.
Also adds ExtensionUIDialogOptions type export and updates RPC mode to
forward timeout to clients.
