- 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).
- Refactor path normalization to combine expandPath and normalizeLocalScheme
- Add validation in utils.ts to reject local:// paths as filesystem paths
- Fix bash-skill-urls regex to handle hyphen-prefixed local:/ patterns
- Add tests for hyphen-prefixed and @local: patterns
- Add negative lookbehind to regex in bash-skill-urls to prevent matching local:/
inside paths like /repo/local:/PLAN.md
- Normalize local scheme before expanding paths in path-utils
- Add test cases for both changes
- Added `/force` slash command and `ToolChoiceQueue` system for managing tool-choice directives with lifecycle callbacks and requeue semantics.
- Added `setForcedToolChoice()`, `peekQueueInvoker()`, `buildToolChoice()`, `steer()`, and `getToolChoiceQueue()` methods to AgentSession and ToolSession APIs.
- Refactored tool-choice override mechanism from simple override to queue-based system with generator directives, lifecycle callbacks, and requeue preservation.
- Removed `PendingActionStore` class and replaced with `ToolChoiceQueue`; updated `ResolveTool` and custom tool loader to use queue invokers.
- Fixed tool-choice queue cleanup on agent loop abort and requeue semantics to preserve callbacks across abort cycles.
- Added root path alias feature to resolve bare `/` to session working directory in path resolution.
- Updated browser tool to use `resolveToCwd()` for consistent workspace-relative path handling.
- Added comprehensive test suite validating root path alias resolution across grep, read, find, ast_grep, and ast_edit tools.
