Expose data that extensions cannot otherwise access: git branch and
extension statuses from setStatus(). Token stats, model info, etc.
remain computable via ctx.sessionManager and ctx.model.
Demonstrates running interactive commands (vim, git rebase, htop, etc.)
with full terminal access using user_bash event and ctx.ui.custom().
- Auto-detects interactive commands from built-in list
- !i prefix to force interactive mode
- Configurable via INTERACTIVE_COMMANDS/INTERACTIVE_EXCLUDE env vars
closes#532
Adds overlay rendering capability to the TUI, enabling floating modal
components that render on top of existing content without clearing the screen.
- Add showOverlay(), hideOverlay(), hasOverlay() methods to TUI
- Implement ANSI-aware line compositing via extractSegments()
- Support overlay stack (multiple overlays, later on top)
- Add { overlay: true } option to ctx.ui.custom()
- Add overlay-test.ts example extension
Also fixes pre-existing bug where bash tool output cached visual lines
at fixed terminal width, causing crashes on terminal resize.

- user_bash event for intercepting ! and !! commands (#528)
- Extensions can return { operations } or { result } to redirect/replace
- executeBashWithOperations() for custom BashOperations execution
- session.recordBashResult() for extensions handling bash themselves
- Theme API: getAllThemes(), getTheme(), setTheme() on ctx.ui
- mac-system-theme.ts example: sync with macOS dark/light mode
- Updated ssh.ts to use user_bash event
- Add systemPrompt to BeforeAgentStartEvent so extensions can see current prompt
- Change systemPromptAppend to systemPrompt in BeforeAgentStartEventResult for full replacement
- Extensions can now chain modifications (each sees the result of previous)
- Update ssh.ts to replace local cwd with remote cwd in system prompt
- Update pirate.ts, claude-rules.ts, preset.ts to use new API
fixes#575
- Add setActiveTools() to ExtensionAPI for dynamic tool management
- Extensions can now override, wrap, or disable built-in tools
- Add tool-override.ts example demonstrating the pattern
- Update documentation for tool override capabilities
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.
- ExtensionAPI: setModel(), getThinkingLevel(), setThinkingLevel() methods
- New preset.ts example with plan/implement presets for model/thinking/tools switching
- Export all UI components from pi-coding-agent for extension use
- docs/tui.md: Common Patterns section with copy-paste code for SelectList, BorderedLoader, SettingsList, setStatus, setWidget, setFooter
- docs/tui.md: Key Rules section for extension UI development
- docs/extensions.md: Exhaustive example links for all ExtensionAPI methods and events
- System prompt now references docs/tui.md for TUI development
Fixes#509, relates to #347
Adds sendUserMessage() to the extension API, allowing extensions to send
actual user messages (role: user) rather than custom messages. Unlike
sendMessage(), this always triggers a turn and behaves as if the user
typed the message.
- Add SendUserMessageHandler type and sendUserMessage() to ExtensionAPI
- Wire handler through loader, runner, and all modes
- Implement via prompt() with expandPromptTemplates: false
- Add send-user-message.ts example with /ask, /steer, /followup commands
- Document in extensions.md
fixes#483
Extensions can now replace the built-in footer with a custom component:
- setFooter(factory) replaces with custom component
- setFooter(undefined) restores built-in footer
Includes example extension demonstrating context usage display.
Closes#481
Add an extension that scans .claude/rules/ folder for project-specific
rules and lists them in the system prompt. The agent can then load
relevant rules using the read tool when needed.
