@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent 0.80.6

v0.80.6

on Node.js NPM

New Features

• max thinking level - New opt-in thinking level above xhigh, natively supported on GPT-5.6 and adaptive Claude models, available across CLI (--thinking max), SDK, RPC, and model selection. Custom themes can define thinkingMax. See CLI Reference.
• Input-based pricing tiers - Request-wide input-token pricing tiers for accurate long-context cost accounting (e.g. GPT-5.4/5.5/5.6 long-context rates), also configurable for custom models in models.json and modelOverrides. See Model Configuration.

Added

• Added the opt-in max thinking level across CLI, SDK, RPC, model selection, and themes. Custom themes can define thinkingMax; existing themes fall back to thinkingXhigh.
• Added request-wide input-token pricing tiers to custom model costs in models.json, modelOverrides, and extension-registered providers.
• Added ~ (home directory) expansion for the shellPath setting (#6470 by @aaronkyriesenbach).

Fixed

• Fixed inherited post-compaction output-token budgeting to ignore stale assistant usage from before the compaction boundary (#6464).
• Fixed inherited GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.5 long-context cost accounting while retaining the intentional 272K default context limit for models that require an explicit override.
• Fixed inherited GPT-5.6 metadata to keep direct OpenAI requests in the 272K short-context tier while exposing the Codex backend's 372K context window with long-context pricing, and removed the nonexistent bare gpt-5.6 alias.
• Fixed inherited Anthropic message conversion to preserve thinking blocks with empty thinking text but a valid signature instead of dropping them, avoiding thinking-block errors on newer Claude models (#6457 by @davidbrai).
