Only fall back to 256color for truly limited terminals (dumb, empty, linux).
Virtually all modern terminals support truecolor, no need to be conservative.
- Add LoginDialogComponent with proper borders (top/bottom DynamicBorder)
- Refactor all OAuth providers to use racing approach (browser callback vs manual paste)
- Add onEscape handler to Input component for cancellation
- Add abortable sleep for GitHub Copilot polling (instant cancel on Escape)
- Show OS-specific click hint (Cmd+click on macOS, Ctrl+click elsewhere)
- Clear content between login phases (fixes GitHub Copilot two-phase flow)
- Use InteractiveMode's showStatus/showError for result messages
- Reorder providers: Anthropic, ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity
Previously, users had to wait up to 60 seconds for the browser callback
to timeout before being prompted to paste the authorization code. This
was problematic for SSH/VPS sessions where the callback cannot work.
Now the paste input is shown immediately alongside the browser flow:
- Browser callback and manual paste race - whichever completes first wins
- Desktop users: browser callback succeeds, input is cleaned up
- SSH/VPS users: paste code immediately without waiting
Changes:
- Add cancelWait() to OAuth server for early termination of polling loop
- Add onManualCodeInput callback that races with browser callback
- Show paste input immediately in TUI for openai-codex provider
- Clean up input on success, error, or when browser callback wins

- 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/
- docs/hooks.md and docs/custom-tools.md merged into docs/extensions.md
New test coverage:
- test/extensions-runner.test.ts (10 tests)
- test/extensions-discovery.test.ts (26 tests)
- test/prompt-templates.test.ts
When hooks are loaded via jiti, they get a separate module instance from
the main app. This means the global 'theme' variable in the hook's module
is never initialized. Adding an optional theme parameter allows hooks to
pass the theme from ctx.ui.custom() callback.
Usage in hooks:
getSettingsListTheme(theme) // theme from ctx.ui.custom callback
- HookError now includes optional stack field
- Hook error display shows stack trace in dim color below error message
- tools.ts: create SettingsListTheme using the theme passed to ctx.ui.custom()
instead of using getSettingsListTheme() which depends on global theme
1. Merge setWidget and setWidgetComponent into single overloaded method
- Accepts either string[] or component factory function
- Uses single Map<string, Component> internally
- String arrays wrapped in Container with Text components
2. Use KeyId type for registerShortcut instead of plain string
- Import Key from @mariozechner/pi-tui
- Update plan-mode example to use Key.shift('p')
- Type-safe shortcut registration
3. Fix tool API docs
- Both built-in and custom tools can be enabled/disabled
- Removed incorrect 'custom tools always active' statement
4. Use matchesKey instead of matchShortcut (already done in rebase)
- New ctx.ui.setWidgetComponent(key, factory) method
- Allows custom Component to render as widget without taking focus
- Unlike custom(), widget components render inline above editor
- Components are disposed when cleared or replaced
- Falls back to no-op in RPC/print modes
- Limit total widget lines to 10 to prevent viewport overflow/flicker
- Show '... (widget truncated)' when limit exceeded
- Document that multiple hooks stack widgets vertically
- Add caution about keeping widgets small
- ctx.ui.setWidget(key, lines) for multi-line displays above editor
- Widgets appear below 'Working...' indicator, above editor
- Supports ANSI styling including strikethrough
- Added theme.strikethrough() method
- Plan-mode hook now shows todo list with checkboxes
- Completed items show checked box and strikethrough text
Hook API additions:
- pi.getTools() / pi.setTools(toolNames) - dynamically enable/disable tools
- pi.registerFlag(name, options) / pi.getFlag(name) - register custom CLI flags
- pi.registerShortcut(shortcut, options) - register keyboard shortcuts
Plan mode hook (examples/hooks/plan-mode.ts):
- /plan command or Shift+P shortcut to toggle
- --plan CLI flag to start in plan mode
- Read-only tools: read, bash, grep, find, ls
- Bash restricted to non-destructive commands (blocks rm, mv, git commit, etc.)
- Interactive prompt after each response: execute, stay, or refine
- Shows plan indicator in footer when active
- State persists across sessions
- Add pi.getTools() and pi.setTools(toolNames) to HookAPI
- Hooks can now enable/disable tools dynamically
- Changes take effect on next agent turn
New example hook: plan-mode.ts
- Claude Code-style read-only exploration mode
- /plan command toggles plan mode on/off
- Plan mode tools: read, bash, grep, find, ls
- Edit/write tools disabled in plan mode
- Injects context telling agent about restrictions
- After each response, prompts to execute/stay/refine
- State persists across sessions
* fix(tui): expand paste markers when opening external editor
Add getExpandedText() method to Editor that substitutes paste markers
with actual content. Use it in Ctrl-G external editor flow so users
see full pasted content instead of [paste #N ...] placeholders.
* docs: add changelog entries for #444
Add new slash commands for gracefully exiting the interactive mode:
- /quit - exit the application
- /exit - alias for /quit (common CLI convention)
Both commands await shutdown() which emits session_shutdown events
to hooks and custom tools before exiting. Unlike Ctrl+C (twice) which
uses void (fire-and-forget), these commands properly wait for hooks
and tools to complete their shutdown handlers.
JPEG/GIF/WebP images were not rendering in terminals using the Kitty
graphics protocol (Kitty, Ghostty, WezTerm) because it requires PNG
format (f=100). Non-PNG images are now converted to PNG using sharp
before being sent to the terminal.
- Hook commands now execute immediately during streaming (they manage their own LLM interaction via pi.sendMessage())
- File-based slash commands are expanded and queued via steer/followUp during streaming
- prompt() accepts new streamingBehavior option ('steer' or 'followUp') for explicit queueing during streaming
- steer() and followUp() now expand file-based slash commands and error on hook commands
- RPC prompt command accepts optional streamingBehavior field
- Updated docs: rpc.md, sdk.md, CHANGELOG.md
fixes#420
The async diff preview computation could race with tool execution,
causing editDiffPreview to contain an error (file already modified)
while the actual tool result had the correct diff in details.diff.
Fix: prioritize result.details.diff over editDiffPreview when the
tool has executed successfully. The preview is only used before
tool execution completes.
Use !!command to execute bash commands that are shown in the TUI and
saved to session history but excluded from LLM context, compaction
summaries, and branch summaries.
- Add excludeFromContext field to BashExecutionMessage
- Filter excluded messages in convertToLlm()
- Parse !! prefix in interactive mode
- Use dim border color for excluded commands
fixes#414
Add doubleEscapeAction setting to choose whether double-escape with an
empty editor opens /tree (default) or /branch.
- Add setting to Settings interface and SettingsManager
- Add to /settings UI for easy toggling
- Update interactive-mode to respect the setting
- Document in README.md settings table
fixes#404
- Fix settings-selector descriptions to explain one-at-a-time vs all
- Update README.md message queuing section, settings example, and table
- Update hooks.md: hasPendingMessages, sendMessage options, triggerTurn example
- Add Theme/ThemeColor export and hasPendingMessages rename to CHANGELOG
- pi.sendMessage(msg, options?) now accepts { triggerTurn?, deliverAs? }
- deliverAs: 'steer' (default) or 'followUp' controls delivery timing
- Update all mode handlers to pass options through
- Update file-trigger example to use new API
- Update CHANGELOG
- Update settings-manager with steeringMode/followUpMode (migrates old queueMode)

- Update clearQueue() return type to { steering, followUp }
- Update UI to show steering vs follow-up messages differently
WIP: settings-manager, sdk, interactive-mode, rpc-mode still need updates
Add setTitle() method to Terminal interface for setting window title.
Uses standard OSC escape sequence \x1b]0;...\x07 for broad terminal
compatibility (macOS Terminal, iTerm2, Kitty, WezTerm, Ghostty, etc.).
Changes:
- Add setTitle(title: string) to Terminal interface
- Implement in ProcessTerminal using OSC sequence
- Implement no-op in VirtualTerminal for testing
- Use in interactive mode to set title as "pi - <dirname>"
BorderedLoader receives theme as a parameter but was creating
DynamicBorder() without passing it, causing DynamicBorder to
fall back to the global theme variable which is undefined when
loaded via jiti (separate module cache).
Added doc comment to DynamicBorder explaining the jiti issue.
Move line count from header to footer to avoid changing the first line
during streaming, which was triggering full screen re-renders in the
TUI's differential rendering logic.
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
HookAPI additions:
- pi.newSession(options?) - create new session with optional setup callback
- pi.branch(entryId) - branch from a specific entry
- pi.navigateTree(targetId, options?) - navigate the session tree
HookContext additions:
- ctx.isIdle() - check if agent is streaming
- ctx.waitForIdle() - wait for agent to finish
- ctx.abort() - abort current operation
- ctx.hasQueuedMessages() - check for queued user messages
These enable hooks to programmatically manage sessions (handoff, templates)
and check agent state before showing interactive UI.
Fixes#388
- Remove session_before_new and session_new hook events
- Add reason: 'new' | 'resume' to session_before_switch and session_switch events

- 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
