- Added `openai` and `openai-codex` as image providers and let `providers.image=auto` prefer GPT images.
- Updated settings, selector, and SDK wiring so OpenAI image providers pass through `setPreferredImageProvider`.
- Replaced Gemini-only image tooling with `image-gen` and added OpenAI/Codex hosted-image execution with SSE parsing.
- Added image-gen and handoff tests, including final-yield no-compaction regression and OpenAI payload/header assertions.
- Renamed subagent completion flow from `submit_result` to `yield` across SDK tools, prompts, and docs.
- Updated executor/task handling to require and parse `yield` calls, replacing legacy submit-result extraction and state flags.
- Added `subagent-yield-reminder` and updated system prompts to require `yield` with `result.data` or `result.error`.
- Renamed hidden-tool and registration plumbing to `yield`, including discovery helpers and renderer/test surface.
- Canonicalized file and CLI defaults from `read` to `open` across tool registration and prompts.
- Added `resolveToolAlias()` and applied alias-normalized tool selection so legacy `read` maps to `open`.
- Updated runtime, UI, and export layers to treat `open` as first-class while preserving `read` compatibility.
- Renamed read prompt docs to `open.md`/`open-chunk.md` and refreshed system guidance to recommend `open`.
- Updated tool-related tests and expectations from `read` to `open` (including test fixtures and aliases).
Subagents created with enableMCP=false had toolSession.mcpManager
unset, causing depth-2+ sub-subagents to re-discover and spawn
duplicate MCP server processes.
- Add mcpManager option to CreateAgentSessionOptions
- Set toolSession.mcpManager unconditionally after MCP block
- Pass options.mcpManager from executor to createAgentSession
- Guard callback registration: only wire onToolsChanged/onPromptsChanged/
onResourcesChanged when the session owns the manager (created via
discovery), not when reusing a parent's — prevents child sessions
from clobbering the parent's live MCP refresh handlers
Latent since 91da560cc (in-process subagent migration), observable
since f82a5d121 added task.maxRecursionDepth allowing depth-2 agents.

- Filtered inactive edit variants with `filterInactiveEditToolName` so tool listings expose the active edit mode.
- Normalized requested edit-capable tool names with `normalizeToolNamesForEditMode` during activation and startup.
- Synced edit-tool mode after model changes so the active tool swaps between `edit` and `vim` automatically.
- Enabled per-file partial updates by threading `onUpdate` through `EditTool` and `executePerFile`.
- Updated `ToolExecutionComponent` to render multi-file edit `perFileResult` entries as separate boxes with pending state.

The four extension/hook/custom-tool/custom-command loaders statically
imported the package barrel `@oh-my-pi/pi-coding-agent` to expose it as
`pi` to user code. This created a self-referential cycle:
tools/index -> task -> sdk -> custom-commands/loader
-> @oh-my-pi/pi-coding-agent (package barrel)
-> modes/components -> tool-execution -> renderers
-> tools/read (TDZ on readToolRenderer)
Triggered at startup by 'omp --help' / 'omp stats --help' depending on
ESM evaluation order, manifesting as:
ReferenceError: Cannot access 'readToolRenderer' before initialization
Introduce `extensibility/pi-ref.ts` that resolves the barrel lazily via
`require` on first call. All four loaders use `getPiRef()` instead of a
static `import * as piCodingAgent`. The barrel is fully initialized by
the time any loader function actually runs, so the lookup is safe.
- Fixed memory leak by cancelling idle compaction timer on event controller disposal.
- Fixed session resumption to preserve last non-empty session when starting fresh.
- Fixed stash detection to use git ref resolution instead of output parsing for reliability.
- Fixed secret obfuscation to deobfuscate restored session messages locally while keeping LLM messages obfuscated.
- Fixed stash pop operation to preserve staged changes with --index flag after task branch merges.
- Changed idle compaction settings from enum to numeric type for flexible configuration.
Wire EventBus through task runtime so subagent lifecycle and progress
events propagate to the TUI. Add SessionObserverRegistry to track
active sessions, and a session observer overlay accessible via Ctrl+S
that shows a picker of running subagents and a read-only transcript
viewer that reads the subagent's session JSONL file to display
thinking, text, tool calls, and results.
- Add TASK_SUBAGENT_LIFECYCLE_CHANNEL for start/end events

tool calls with smart arg summaries, inline tool results)

- Introduced autocorrect tracking metrics including autocorrect-free success rate and edit autocorrect counts in task and benchmark summaries.
- Refactored prompt building into modular functions (buildBenchmarkSystemPrompt, buildInitialBenchmarkPrompt, buildRetryBenchmarkPrompt) with BenchmarkPromptDelivery type for distinguishing initial and follow-up messages.
- Added session management with cache-keyed provider session IDs using xxHash64 and centralized RPC argument building via prepareBenchmarkSessionSetup.

- Added comprehensive type definitions and helper utilities for metric parsing, ASI validation, and process management.
- Added mcpServerName and mcpToolName optional properties to tool definitions for MCP server discovery and tool name tracking.
- Changed aborted tool call handling to preserve existing tool results instead of replacing with synthetic 'aborted' results at turn boundaries.
- Extracted flushPendingToolCalls() and flushPendingAbortedToolCalls() helpers to consolidate orphaned tool call handling logic.
- Updated tool result handling to use message timestamps instead of Date.now() for synthetic results consistency.
rules with alwaysApply: true were parsed by all providers and used to
exclude the rule from rulebookRules, but the inclusion half was never
built — rule content was silently dropped. now:
- full content is injected directly into the system prompt (before the
rulebook rules section) in both default and custom prompt templates
- rules remain addressable via rule:// for re-reading
- ttsr rules still take priority (condition + alwaysApply goes to ttsr only)
updated rulebook-matching-pipeline.md to reflect the three-bucket split
(ttsr > always-apply > rulebook) and corrected the rule:// resolution
docs.
- Made sessionDir parameter optional in SessionManager.create(), forkFrom(), continueRecent(), and list() methods with automatic default computation.
- Updated SessionManager.getDefaultSessionDir() to accept optional agentDir parameter for custom sessions root configuration.
- Changed SessionManager.list() signature to require cwd parameter as first argument with sessionDir now optional.
- Implemented multi-root session migration support by replacing global migration state with per-root tracking and extracting session directory encoding logic.
- Added resolveManagedSessionRoot() function to determine if session directory is managed and extract its root.
