Fixed arrow key and Enter detection in selector components to work
with Kitty protocol when Caps Lock or Num Lock is enabled.
Updated: oauth-selector, user-message-selector, hook-selector,
hook-input, model-selector, session-selector
- Add XHIGH_MODELS constant and getAvailableThinkingLevels() to AgentSession
- Update ThinkingSelectorComponent to accept availableLevels parameter
- Both shift+tab cycling and /thinking command now show xhigh for supported models
- Update types.ts documentation to list supported models
Breaking changes:
- Custom tools now require index.ts entry point in subdirectory
(e.g., tools/mytool/index.ts instead of tools/mytool.ts)
Subagent tool improvements:
- Refactored to use Message[] from ai package instead of custom types
- Extracted agent discovery to separate agents.ts module
- Added parallel mode streaming (shows progress from all tasks)
- Added turn count to usage stats footer
- Removed redundant Query section from scout output
Fixes:
- JSON mode stdout flush: Fixed race condition where pi --mode json
could exit before all output was written, causing consumers to
miss final events
Also:
- Added signal/timeout support to pi.exec() for custom tools and hooks
- Renamed pi-pods bin to avoid conflict with pi
Add isEscape() helper that handles both raw (\x1b) and Kitty protocol
(\x1b[27u) Escape sequences. Update all components that check for
Escape key to use the new helper.
Implement Agent Skills standard (https://agentskills.io/specification):
- Validate name (must match parent dir, lowercase, max 64 chars)
- Validate description (required, max 1024 chars)
- Warn on unknown frontmatter fields
- Warn on name collisions (keep first)
- Change prompt format to XML structure
- Remove {baseDir} placeholder (use relative paths)
- Add tests and update documentation
fixes#231
- Add isCtrlD helper to keys.ts
- CustomEditor intercepts Ctrl+D and only triggers callback when editor is empty
- Single Ctrl+D with empty input exits immediately
- Update CHANGELOG to frame as feature (Kitty protocol support) not fix
- Add isCtrlA/C/E/K/O/P/T/U/W helper functions that check both raw and Kitty formats
- Add isAltBackspace helper function
- Refactor editor.ts, input.ts, select-list.ts to use helper functions
- Refactor custom-editor.ts, session-selector.ts, user-message-selector.ts
- Add CHANGELOG entry for the Shift+Enter fix
Enable the Kitty keyboard protocol on terminal start to receive enhanced
key sequences that include modifier information. This fixes Shift+Enter
not working in Ghostty, Kitty, WezTerm, and other modern terminals.
Changes:
- Enable Kitty protocol on start (\x1b[>1u), disable on stop (\x1b[<u)
- Add centralized key definitions in packages/tui/src/keys.ts
- Support both legacy and Kitty sequences for all modifier+key combos:
- Shift+Enter, Alt+Enter for newlines
- Shift+Tab for thinking level cycling
- Ctrl+C, Ctrl+A, Ctrl+E, Ctrl+K, Ctrl+U, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+O, Ctrl+P, Ctrl+T
- Alt+Backspace for word deletion
- Export Keys constants and helper functions from @mariozechner/pi-tui
- Extract diff rendering to dedicated diff.ts component
- Show word-level changes with inverse highlighting when a single line is modified
- Use diffWords for cleaner token grouping (includes adjacent whitespace)
- Only apply intra-line diff when exactly 1 removed and 1 added line (true modification)
- Multi-line changes show all removed then all added without incorrect pairing
- Add theme.inverse() method for inverse text styling
- Custom tools: TypeScript modules that extend pi with new tools
- Custom TUI rendering via renderCall/renderResult
- User interaction via pi.ui (select, confirm, input, notify)
- Session lifecycle via onSession callback for state reconstruction
- Examples: todo.ts, question.ts, hello.ts
- Hook examples: permission-gate, git-checkpoint, protected-paths
- Session lifecycle centralized in AgentSession
- Works across all modes (interactive, print, RPC)
- Unified session event for hooks (replaces session_start/session_switch)
- Box component added to pi-tui
- Examples bundled in npm and binary releases
Fixes#190
Previous test used compressed 8k images (0.01MB) which was meaningless.
Now tests with actual large noise images that don't compress.
Realistic payload limits discovered:
- Anthropic: 6 x 3MB = ~18MB total (not 32MB as documented)
- OpenAI: 2 x 15MB = ~30MB total
- Gemini: 10 x 20MB = ~200MB total (very permissive)
- Mistral: 4 x 10MB = ~40MB total
- xAI: 1 x 20MB (strict request size limit)
- Groq: 5 x 5760px images (5 image + pixel limit)
- zAI: 2 x 15MB = ~30MB (50MB request limit)
- OpenRouter: 2 x 5MB = ~10MB total
Also fixed GEMINI_API_KEY env var (was GOOGLE_API_KEY).

- Add AgentToolUpdateCallback type and optional onUpdate callback to AgentTool.execute()
- Add tool_execution_update event with toolCallId, toolName, args, partialResult
- Normalize tool_execution_end to always use AgentToolResult (no more string fallback)
- Bash tool streams truncated rolling buffer output during execution
- ToolExecutionComponent shows last N lines when collapsed (not first N)
- Interactive mode handles tool_execution_update events
- Update RPC docs and ai/agent READMEs
fixes#44
- Auto-enable all models after /login via POST /models/{model}/policy
- Use openai-responses API for gpt-5/o3/o4 models (not accessible via completions)
- Normalize tool call IDs when switching between github-copilot models with different APIs
(fixes#198: openai-responses generates 450+ char IDs with special chars that break other models)
- Update README with streamlined GitHub Copilot docs
- add GitHub Copilot model discovery (env token fallback, headers,
compat) plus fallback list and quoted provider keys in generated map
- surface Copilot provider end-to-end (KnownProvider/default, env+OAuth
token refresh/save, enterprise base URL swap, available only when
creds/env exist)
- tweak interactive OAuth UI to render instruction text and prompt
placeholders
gpt-5.2-high took about 35 minutes. It had a lot of trouble with `npm
check` and went off on a "let's adjust every tsconfig" side quest.
Device code flow works, but the ai/scripts/generate-models.ts impl is
wrong as models from months ago are missing and only those deprecated
are accessible in the /models picker.
- Image component returns correct number of lines (rows) for TUI accounting
- Empty lines rendered first, then cursor moves up and image is drawn
- This clears the space the image occupies before rendering
- Add spacer before inline images in tool output
- Create ShowImagesSelectorComponent with borders like other selectors
- Use showSelector pattern for /show-images command
- Add terminal.showImages setting to settings-manager.ts
- Add /show-images slash command (only visible if terminal supports images)
- ToolExecutionComponent checks both terminal support and user setting
- Shows text fallback when inline images are disabled
- Allow branch selector to open with single user message (changed <= 1 to === 0 check)
- Support in-memory branching for --no-session mode (no files created)
- Add isEnabled() getter to SessionManager
- Update sessionFile getter to return null when sessions disabled
- Update SessionSwitchEvent types to allow null session files
- Add branching tests for single message and --no-session scenarios
fixes#163
The theme file watcher was keeping the Node.js process alive indefinitely
even in print mode where hot-reload is unnecessary. This fix adds an
enableWatcher parameter to initTheme() and setTheme() functions, and only
enables watchers in interactive mode.
- Modified initTheme() to accept enableWatcher parameter (default: false)
- Modified setTheme() to accept enableWatcher parameter (default: false)
- Updated main.ts to only enable watchers in interactive mode
- Updated InteractiveMode to enable watchers when changing themes
- Add agentLoopContinue() to pi-ai for resuming from existing context
- Add Agent.continue() method and transport.continue() interface
- Simplify AgentSession compaction to two cases: overflow (auto-retry) and threshold (no retry)
- Remove proactive mid-turn compaction abort
- Merge turn prefix summary into main summary
- Add isCompacting property to AgentSession and RPC state
- Block input during compaction in interactive mode
- Show compaction count on session resume
- Rename RPC.md to rpc.md for consistency
Related to #128
Phase 1: Updated compaction.ts
