Instead of skipping unsigned tool calls entirely (which lobotomizes context),
convert them to text with an explicit note telling the model this is historical
context from a different model and not a format to mimic.
This preserves tool call/result context when switching from providers without
thought signatures (e.g. Claude via Antigravity) to Gemini 3.
When auto-compaction fails (e.g., quota exceeded), emit the error via
the auto_compaction_end event instead of throwing. The UI now displays
the error message, allowing users to take action (switch models, wait
for quota reset, etc.) instead of crashing.
fixes#792
When 429/500 errors occur during tool execution, empty assistant messages
with stopReason='error' get persisted. These break the tool_use -> tool_result
chain for Claude/Gemini APIs.
Added centralized filtering in transformMessages to skip assistant messages
with empty content and no tool calls. Provider-level filters remain for
defense-in-depth.
* feat(coding-agent): add startup.quiet setting to silence startup output
* feat(coding-agent): add startup.quiet setting to silence startup output
Adds a new setting `startup.quiet` that when set to `true` hides:
- Version and keybinding hints header
- Loaded context/skills/templates/extensions discovery info
- Model scope line
Changelog notifications are still shown so users know about updates.
Usage in ~/.pi/agent/settings.json:
{
"startup": {
"quiet": true
}
}
* refactor: flatten startup.quiet to quietStartup on Settings
When --no-extensions was used, extensionsResult.extensions was an empty
array. The condition in buildSessionOptions() checked .length > 0,
so preloadedExtensions was not set. This caused createAgentSession()
to fall through to extension discovery.
Remove the .length > 0 condition so the empty result is passed through,
signaling that extension loading was already handled.
Fixes#776
- Update ExtensionCommandContext.navigateTree type signature
- Pass new options through in print-mode and rpc-mode handlers
- Update docs/extensions.md, docs/sdk.md, docs/tree.md
- Add changelog entry
Previous commit broke Node.js/tsx by using the ESM entry point which
doesn't work with Node. This creates a wrapper module that:
- Uses require() for lazy loading (works in both Node and Bun)
- Gracefully handles load failures (returns original image)
- Works in Node.js, tsx, and Bun compiled binaries
- Import photon-node from ESM entry point (photon_rs_bg.js) instead of CJS
entry, allowing Bun to embed WASM in compiled binaries
- Add photon.d.ts for TypeScript support of ESM entry
- Add scripts/build-binaries.sh for local binary builds
- Simplify GitHub workflow to use the build script
- Add binaries/ to gitignore
When using `--session <UUID>`, the session lookup now:
1. Searches locally first (current project's session directory)
2. Falls back to global search across all projects
3. If found in different project, prompts user to fork the session
4. If not found anywhere, shows clear error instead of silently creating
a broken session with malformed path
Adds `SessionManager.forkFrom()` to create a forked session from another
project, preserving full conversation history with updated cwd.
Fixes cursor visibility issues in JetBrains IDE terminals (IntelliJ, PyCharm) where
the hardware cursor either blinks or becomes invisible depending on settings.
Fixes#771
Previously, OpenAI-compatible provider settings (like developer role support)
were detected only from the baseUrl. When using custom URLs (e.g., proxies),
detection failed. Now checks model.provider first, then falls back to URL.
Fixes#774
Implements support for ${@:N} and ${@:N:L} syntax to slice argument arrays
in prompt templates, following bash conventions.
Syntax:
- ${@:N} - All arguments from Nth position onwards (1-indexed)
- ${@:N:L} - L arguments starting from Nth position
Features:
- Bash-style slicing familiar to shell users
- 1-indexed for consistency with $1, $2, etc.
- Processes before simple $@ to avoid conflicts
- No recursive substitution of patterns in arguments
- Comprehensive edge case handling
Examples:
- ${@:2} with ["a", "b", "c"] -> "b c"
- ${@:2:1} with ["a", "b", "c"] -> "b"
- ${@:99} with ["a", "b"] -> "" (empty, out of range)
Test coverage: 24 new tests, all passing (73 total)
Closes#769
- Add Focusable interface for components that need hardware cursor positioning
- Add CURSOR_MARKER (APC escape sequence) for marking cursor position in render output
- Editor and Input components implement Focusable and emit marker when focused
- TUI extracts cursor position from rendered output and positions hardware cursor
- Track hardwareCursorRow separately from cursorRow for differential rendering
- visibleWidth() and extractAnsiCode() now handle APC sequences
- Update overlay-test.ts example to demonstrate Focusable usage
- Add documentation for Focusable interface in docs/tui.md
Closes#719, closes#525
The Editor component now accepts TUI as the first constructor parameter,
enabling it to query terminal dimensions. When content exceeds available
height, the editor scrolls vertically keeping the cursor visible.
Features:
- Max editor height is 30% of terminal rows (minimum 5 lines)
- Page Up/Down keys scroll by page size
- Scroll indicators show lines above/below: ─── ↑ 5 more ───
Breaking change: Editor constructor signature changed from
new Editor(theme)
to
new Editor(tui, theme)
fixes#732
When stdin is piped (not a TTY), read the content and treat it as the
first message. Since interactive mode requires a TTY for keyboard input,
print mode is automatically enabled.
- echo foo | pi -> equivalent to pi -p foo
- echo foo | pi -p -> equivalent to pi -p foo
- RPC mode unaffected (uses stdin for JSON-RPC)
fixes#708
- Skill commands (/skill:name) now expanded in AgentSession instead of
interactive mode, enabling them in RPC and print modes
- Input event can now intercept /skill:name before expansion
- Updated extensions.md with clearer input event docs and processing order
- Updated rpc.md: hook -> extension terminology, added skill expansion mentions
- Added PR attribution to changelog entries for #761
* feat(coding-agent): add input event for extension input interception
Extensions can now intercept, transform, or handle user input before the
agent processes it. Three result types: continue (pass through), transform
(modify text/images), handled (respond without LLM). Handlers chain
transforms and short-circuit on handled. Source field identifies origin.
* fix: make source public, use if/else over ternary
* fix: remove response field, extension handles own UI
Resolves pi-internal:// paths to the coding-agent package directory,
allowing the model to read internal documentation. Appends a hint
showing the filesystem path and instructing to use it for further reads.
- align Codex Responses provider with Pi static instructions
- simplify Codex request/stream handling and cleanup exports
- keep legacy OpenCode Codex prompt for testing until Pi prompt is allowlisted
* Add direct filter shortcuts for Tree mode
- Add Ctrl+D for default filter
- Add Ctrl+T for no-tools filter (toggles with default)
- Add Ctrl+U for user-only filter (toggles with default)
- Add Ctrl+L for labeled-only filter (toggles with default)
- Add Ctrl+A for all filter (toggles with default)
- Keep existing Ctrl+O / Shift+Ctrl+O cycle shortcuts
- Update help text to show new shortcuts
* simplify tree selector shortcut line
