pi-subagents 0.63.0 makes larger delegated workflows easier to follow and easier to keep isolated. Workflow progress is now clearer in status, Fleet, and live widgets, so you can see what is happening without expanding every child. Worktrunk users get managed worktrees automatically while native Git remains available as a fallback. This release also tightens several async and read-only edge cases so background work cleans up and reports results more reliably.
Highlights
- Workflow progress is easier to scan in status, Fleet, and live widgets.
- Additional agent folders can now be configured without copying definitions into one directory.
- Worktrunk users get managed worktrees automatically, with native Git available as the fallback.
- Fleet can jump straight into the selected child run's Herdr inspector.
- Async runs clean up and report edge cases more reliably.

Added
- Show workflow progress as stacked checklist summaries in status, Fleet, and live widget views (#1806).
- Add configurable extra agent scan directories with one-segment wildcard expansion. Thanks to @mystery4f for #1801.
- Make Worktrunk a first-class managed worktree provider, selected automatically when available with native Git as the fallback (#1800).
- Let Fleet open the selected async child in its child-specific Herdr inspector. Thanks to @stekman08 for #1790.
Changed
- Show workflow checklist phases first in collapsed views, while keeping child details available when expanded (#1810).
Fixed
- Keep isolated test runs from writing agent definitions into an inherited
PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR. Thanks to @mapleluvr for #1809. - Prevent nested tool-availability diagnostics from failing an otherwise valid parent result. Thanks to @robertvangor for #1802.
- Free async capacity correctly after workflows finish, even when saved step status is stale. Thanks to @boggylp for #1804.
- Make
subagents.agentOverrides.<name>replace matching custom-agent frontmatter fields, consistently with builtin agents. Thanks to @expoli for #1796. - Strip the trailing Pi turn-timing footer from child output. Thanks to @fkhawajagh for #1792.
- Keep inferred acceptance reports out of reviewer and read-only child prompts. Thanks to @expoli for #1797.
- Preserve coordinated read-only intent when direct async children resume, and show captured structured output in completion and status evidence. Thanks to @fkhawajagh for #1788.
- Keep macOS subagent tasks out of argv by delivering them through temporary files. Thanks to @josephkallas for #1793.
