- Reworked `idle-iterator` to replace the first-event watchdog wrapper with a shared timeout handle passed through stream iteration.
- Updated Anthropic and OpenAI/Azure response-completion streams to pass the watchdog into `iterateWithIdleTimeout` and rely on unified first-event timeout logic.
- Raised the default first-stream-event timeout from 60 seconds to 100 seconds.
- Added task.simple to settings and schema with default, schema-free, and independent modes.
- Added mode-aware task schema and validation to enforce context/schema rules per simple mode.
- Updated prompts and template rendering to tailor headers and guidance for each simple mode.
- Added simple-mode capabilities and updated TaskTool execution for mode-aware context behavior.
- Added tests for independent rendering and mode-specific rejection of invalid context or schema inputs.
- Extracted prompt formatting logic into reusable `formatPromptContent()` utility function with configurable render phases.
- Removed 166 lines of duplicate formatting code from scripts and config modules by centralizing regex patterns and helper functions.
- Updated prompt template rendering to use unified `formatPromptContent()` instead of inline `optimizePromptLayout()` implementation.
- Added comprehensive test coverage for prompt formatting with pre-render and post-render mode validation.
- Removed per-task skill pinning feature; subagents now inherit session skill set instead of per-task selection.
- Removed `preloadedSkills` option from `CreateAgentSessionOptions` interface and related system prompt plumbing.
- Removed `skills` field from Task schema; task execution now passes available session skills directly to subagents.
- Simplified task execution pipeline by removing skill resolution logic and preloaded skills handling from system prompt templates.
- Renamed XML tags from underscore to kebab-case format for consistency across prompts and system messages.
- Updated context tag from `swarm_context` to `context` in render logic and test assertions.
- Consolidated conditional logic in subagent user prompt by removing duplicate assignment blocks.
- Updated system prompt documentation to reflect kebab-case naming convention for XML tags.
- Refactored task API to use 'assignment' field instead of 'args' for per-task instructions, enabling clearer separation between shared context and task-specific work.
- Introduced structured context/assignment separation pattern with '<swarm_context>' wrapper for template rendering, replacing placeholder-based substitution.
- Changed agent frontmatter field from 'thinkingLevel' to 'thinking-level' (kebab-case) for consistency with YAML conventions.
- Removed 'context' parameter from ExecutorOptions as context is now prepended at template level rather than executor level.
- Removed 'args' field from AgentProgress and SingleResult interfaces, simplifying task result tracking.
- Updated task rendering to display full task text instead of formatted args, improving clarity in progress output.
- Added tsconfig.publish.json files to all packages with optimized publish-time configuration.
- Updated all package.json scripts with prepublishOnly hooks for correct type checking during publish.
- Added @oh-my-pi/omp-stats path mappings to root tsconfig.json for consistent imports.
- Added WASM generation script for photon module and integrated into install:dev script.
- converted relative imports to path aliases ($c/*, $ai/*, $tui/*, etc.) across all packages
- added per-package tsconfig.json with complete path mappings for runtime resolution
- set importModuleSpecifier to non-relative for IDE auto-import preferences
- updated dev script to run from monorepo root for consistent path resolution
- Renamed task parameter from vars to args throughout task tool interface.
- Enhanced task template rendering with built-in {{id}} and {{description}} placeholders.
- Simplified task template validation by removing strict placeholder requirements.
- Streamlined CHECKPOINT step requirements in system prompts.
- Added cell-by-cell Python execution tracking with duration and exit codes.
- Added template system with {{placeholders}} for task tool context rendering.
- Enhanced patch applicator to preserve exact indentation when intended.
- Changed Python tool to use cells array instead of single code parameter.
- Updated task tool schema to require vars instead of task field.
