- Implemented in-house, zero-dependency utility modules in `pi-utils` covering DOM manipulation, markdown parsing, templating, browser automation helpers, and terminal buffers.
- Migrated packages across the repository to consume the new internal utilities and `omptype` schema validators instead of external dependencies.
- Removed multiple external runtime and development dependencies including Zod, Marked, LRU cache, Turndown, and Puppeteer browser packages.
- Introduce `@oh-my-pi/omptype` as a new ArkType-compatible schema validation package featuring a lazy JIT runtime, JSON Schema emission, and compatibility adapters.
- Replace `arktype` across workspace packages and test utilities with `@oh-my-pi/omptype`.
- Add benchmark suites, tests, and documentation for the new validation engine and adapters.
- Update workspace build, test runner, and release configurations to include the new package.
- Migrated all wire protocol, schema definitions, and tools validation from Zod to ArkType across multiple packages.
- Updated extension runtimes, custom tools loader, and TypeBox compatibility shim to expose and use ArkType instances.
- Added a comprehensive ArkType migration guide, validation parity tests, and helper utilities.
- Removed redundant PDF asset routing and parsing implementations from the read tool.
- Centralized catalog and registry handling on `ModelSpec` and `buildModel`, resolving compatibility at model build time.
- Removed runtime compatibility detectors and switched provider request flows to direct `model.compat` reads.
- Added compat fields (`supportsReasoningParams`, `alwaysSendMaxTokens`, `strictResponsesPairing`, `whenThinking`).
- Persisted explicit compatibility overrides through `compatConfig` in discovery and cache merge paths.
