- Made resolveShapeForText choose silver16-bw for CJK-heavy auto transcripts while preserving explicit variants and unsafe glyph protection.
- Added silver16-bw to the snapcompact shape settings submenu and renamed unsupported-glyph warnings.
- Covered auto shape selection, explicit variant precedence, unsafe glyph scans, and settings option parity.
Fixes#4486
fix(compaction): cap snapcompact frame payloads (#3866)
Bound rebuilt snapcompact image payloads by a per-request base64 byte
budget so long sessions stop re-sending multi-megabyte standing image
archives on every provider request; auto-compaction falls back to
context-full summaries when snapcompact output is too large.
Resolved snapcompact.ts conflict against the main font-rendering refactor
by keeping both renderabilityProbeText and the frame-budget helpers.
Fixed historyBlocks to emit the omitted-frame notice before the kept
(newer) images, since the byte budget drops the oldest frames — keeping
reconstructed blocks oldest-to-newest (addresses Codex P2 review).
Fixes#3792
When legacy snapcompact archives exceed the per-request byte budget, retain frames from the newest end of the archived middle and restore oldest-to-newest order for the kept subset.
Bounded persisted snapcompact image archives by base64 byte size so large sessions stop re-sending multi-megabyte frame walls on every provider request.
Auto snapcompact now falls back to context-full summaries when rendered frame payloads exceed the byte budget, and legacy oversized archives omit over-budget frames during LLM context rebuilds.
Fixes#3792
- Added Silver.ttf TrueType font support to `pi-natives` with automated fallback logic for bitmap font rendering.
- Implemented wide code point detection and cell-width calculation to improve CJK character handling and layout.
- Introduced dynamic font-aware preflight probing via `resolveShapeForText` and `renderabilityProbeText` for better font selection.
- Enabled semantic emoji folding and improved text normalization to handle non-Latin characters and emoji filtering.
- Added `rewrite-changelog.ts` and `fix-changelogs.ts` utilities to automate the consolidation of release notes using LLM-assisted processing.
- Updated multiple internal changelog files by consolidating redundant entries and improving phrasing for readability.
- Implemented `previewLine` utility in `coding-agent` to prevent visual spillover in status rows by managing text truncation and whitespace.
- Updated `package.json` with new workflow scripts for managing package-level change histories and documentation indexes.
- Fixed stale `preserveData.snapcompact` frames leaking into context-full compaction after switching from `snapcompact` to `context-full` strategy, which inflated context usage and made sessions appear to compact prematurely.
- Added secret redaction for migrated snapcompact archive plaintext (`text`/`textHead`/`textTail`) during the snapcompact->context-full transition, while preserving opaque provider-replay state byte-identical.
- Added `archiveSourceText()` and `stripPreservedArchive()` utilities to snapcompact module for archive extraction and cleanup.
- Consolidated duplicate `stripSnapcompactPreserveData` functions into `snapcompact.stripPreservedArchive`.
- Added unit tests to verify archive removal and empty state collapse behavior.
