github nicobailon/pi-subagents v0.62.0

2 hours ago

Pi subagents 0.62.0 makes delegated work safer and more predictable. Child agents can now provide completion evidence in a cleaner shape, and agent configs can keep specific tools out of reach. Scheduled work can stay tied to the session that created it, which helps avoid surprising cross-session runs. This release also tightens async recovery and Windows child launches, especially around forked runs and missing Pi CLI resolution.

Highlights

  • Child agents can report completion evidence more cleanly and stay away from tools they should not use.
  • Session-only schedules keep personal scheduled work tied to the session that created it.
  • Async forked runs now start and resume in the working directory you requested.
  • Windows child launches are more reliable, with clearer errors when Pi cannot find a valid CLI.
  • External CLI and read-only recovery paths are sturdier when workers disappear or prompts include unusual line separators.

Highlights

  • Child agents can report completion evidence more cleanly and stay away from tools they should not use.
  • Session-only schedules keep personal scheduled work tied to the session that created it.
  • Async forked runs now start and resume in the working directory you requested.
  • Windows child launches are more reliable, with clearer errors when Pi cannot find a valid CLI.
  • External CLI and read-only recovery paths are sturdier when workers disappear or prompts include unusual line separators.

Added

  • Let native children with outputSchema include required acceptance evidence in the same structured_output call with acceptance.report: "on"; acceptance.report: "off" keeps fenced acceptance reports. Thanks @mapleluvr for #1770.
  • Add per-agent excludeTools deny-lists that compose with Pi's ambient or explicit child tool selection. Thanks @expoli for #1776.
  • Add session-only durable schedules that only run in the session that created them. Thanks @yangfeng20 for #1777.

Fixed

  • Keep async forked runs in the requested child cwd when they start or resume. Thanks @stekman08 for #1785.
  • Accept JSON-encoded acceptance objects from model tool calls, while still failing clearly for malformed strings. Thanks @mapleluvr for #1781.
  • Keep steer and follow-up receipt statuses separate from their redacted message previews (#1773).
  • Create async lifecycle sidecars before external CLI workers begin worktree changes, so disappeared runners are reported as failed runs. Thanks @fkhawajagh for #1764.
  • Preserve explicit read-only intent when escaped line separators surround no-edit wording. Thanks @fkhawajagh for #1765.
  • Launch child Pi processes through the resolved CLI JavaScript on Windows, and run JavaScript PI_SUBAGENT_PI_BINARY overrides with Node. Thanks @caohuipeng for #1768.
  • Resolve the installed Pi CLI on Windows wrapper hosts from the forwarded package root, and report a clear error when no verified CLI can be found. Thanks @lux032 for #1780.
