New Features

• Hugging Face provider: Access Hugging Face models via OpenAI-compatible Inference Router. Set HF_TOKEN environment variable. See README.md#hugging-face.
• Extended prompt caching: PI_CACHE_RETENTION=long enables 1-hour caching for Anthropic (vs 5min default) and 24-hour for OpenAI (vs in-memory default). Only applies to direct API calls. See README.md#prompt-caching.
• Configurable autocomplete height: autocompleteMaxVisible setting (3-20 items, default 5) controls dropdown size. Adjust via /settings or settings.json.
• Shell-style keybindings: alt+b/alt+f for word navigation, ctrl+d for delete character forward. See docs/keybindings.md.
• RPC get_commands: Headless clients can now list available commands programmatically. See docs/rpc.md.

• Added Hugging Face provider support via OpenAI-compatible Inference Router (#994)
• Added PI_CACHE_RETENTION environment variable to control cache TTL for Anthropic (5m vs 1h) and OpenAI (in-memory vs 24h). Set to long for extended retention. (#967)
• Added autocompleteMaxVisible setting for configurable autocomplete dropdown height (3-20 items, default 5) (#972 by @masonc15)
• Added /files command to list all file operations (read, write, edit) in the current session
• Added shell-style keybindings: alt+b/alt+f for word navigation, ctrl+d for delete character forward (when editor has text) (#1043 by @jasonish)

Changed

• Improved extractCursorPosition performance in TUI: scans lines in reverse order, early-outs when cursor is above viewport (#1004 by @can1357)
• Autocomplete improvements: better handling of partial matches and edge cases (#1024 by @Perlence)

Fixed

• External edits to settings.json are now preserved when pi reloads or saves unrelated settings. Previously, editing settings.json directly (e.g., removing a package from packages array) would be silently reverted on next pi startup when automatic setters like setLastChangelogVersion() triggered a save.
• Fixed custom header not displaying correctly with quietStartup enabled (#1039 by @tudoroancea)
• Empty array in package filter now disables all resources instead of falling back to manifest defaults (#1044)
• Auto-retry counter now resets after each successful LLM response instead of accumulating across tool-use turns (#1019)
• Fixed incorrect .md file names in warning messages (#1041 by @llimllib)
• Fixed provider name hidden in footer when terminal is narrow (#981 by @Perlence)
• Fixed backslash input buffering causing delayed character display in editor (#1037 by @Perlence)
• Fixed markdown table rendering with proper row dividers and minimum column width (#997 by @tmustier)
• Fixed OpenAI completions toolChoice handling (#998 by @williamtwomey)
• Fixed cross-provider handoff failing when switching from OpenAI Responses API providers due to pipe-separated tool call IDs (#1022)
• Fixed 429 rate limit errors incorrectly triggering auto-compaction instead of retry with backoff (#1038)
• Fixed Anthropic provider to handle sensitive stop_reason returned by API (#978)
• Fixed DeepSeek API compatibility by detecting deepseek.com URLs and disabling unsupported developer role (#1048)
• Fixed Anthropic provider to preserve input token counts when proxies omit them in message_delta events (#1045)
• Fixed autocompleteMaxVisible setting not persisting to settings.json
