* feat(coding-agent): add event bus for tool/hook communication
Adds pi.events API enabling custom tools and hooks to communicate via
pub/sub. Tools can emit events, hooks can listen. Shared EventBus instance
created per session in createAgentSession().
- EventBus interface with emit() and on() methods
- on() returns unsubscribe function
- Threaded through hook and tool loaders
- Documented in hooks.md and custom-tools.md
* fix(coding-agent): wrap event handlers to catch errors
* docs: note async handler error handling for event bus
* feat(coding-agent): add sendMessage to tools, nextTurn delivery mode
- Custom tools now have pi.sendMessage() for direct agent notifications
- New deliverAs: 'nextTurn' queues messages for next user prompt
- Fix: hooks and tools now share the same eventBus (was isolated before)
* fix(coding-agent): nextTurn delivery should always queue, even when streaming
CustomToolContext now has:
- isIdle() - check if agent is streaming
- hasQueuedMessages() - check if user has queued messages
- abort() - abort current operation (fire-and-forget)
Changed abort() signature from Promise<void> to void in both
HookContext and CustomToolContext. The abort is fire-and-forget:
it calls session.abort() without awaiting, so the abort signal
is set immediately while waitForIdle() runs in the background.
Fixes#388
- Remove session_before_new and session_new hook events
- Add reason: 'new' | 'resume' to session_before_switch and session_switch events
- Remove 'new' reason from custom tool onSession (use 'switch' for both /new and /resume)
- Rename reset() to newSession(options?) in AgentSession
- Add NewSessionOptions with optional parentSession for lineage tracking
- Rename branchedFrom to parentSession in SessionHeader
- Rename RPC reset command to new_session with optional parentSession
- Update example hooks to use new event structure
- Update documentation and changelog
Based on discussion in #293
- Add setEditorText() and getEditorText() to HookUIContext for prompt generator pattern
- custom() now accepts async factories for fire-and-forget work
- Add CancellableLoader component to tui package
- Add BorderedLoader component for hooks with cancel UI
- Export HookAPI, HookContext, HookFactory from main package
- Update all examples to import from packages instead of relative paths
- Update hooks.md and custom-tools.md documentation
fixes#350
- New tui.md covers component system for hooks and custom tools
- Update hooks.md intro with 'Key capabilities' highlighting UI
- Update custom-tools.md intro with 'Key capabilities' highlighting UI
- Reference tui.md from both docs
- Add custom tools API rework to CHANGELOG breaking changes
- Update docs/custom-tools.md with new types and signatures
- Update README quick example with correct execute signature
Breaking change: CustomAgentTool.dispose() removed. Use onSession with
reason 'shutdown' instead for cleanup.
- Add 'shutdown' to SessionEvent.reason for custom tools
- Remove dispose() method from CustomAgentTool interface
- Make emitToolSessionEvent() public on AgentSession
- Emit shutdown event to tools in InteractiveMode.shutdown()
- Update custom-tools.md with new API and examples
Breaking changes:
- Custom tools now require index.ts entry point in subdirectory
(e.g., tools/mytool/index.ts instead of tools/mytool.ts)
Subagent tool improvements:
- Refactored to use Message[] from ai package instead of custom types
- Extracted agent discovery to separate agents.ts module
- Added parallel mode streaming (shows progress from all tasks)
- Added turn count to usage stats footer
- Removed redundant Query section from scout output
Fixes:
- JSON mode stdout flush: Fixed race condition where pi --mode json
could exit before all output was written, causing consumers to
miss final events
Also:
- Added signal/timeout support to pi.exec() for custom tools and hooks
- Renamed pi-pods bin to avoid conflict with pi
- Custom tools: TypeScript modules that extend pi with new tools
- Custom TUI rendering via renderCall/renderResult
- User interaction via pi.ui (select, confirm, input, notify)
- Session lifecycle via onSession callback for state reconstruction
- Examples: todo.ts, question.ts, hello.ts
- Hook examples: permission-gate, git-checkpoint, protected-paths
- Session lifecycle centralized in AgentSession
- Works across all modes (interactive, print, RPC)
- Unified session event for hooks (replaces session_start/session_switch)
- Box component added to pi-tui
- Examples bundled in npm and binary releases
Fixes#190
