Chronos 0.2.2

Resolves the #5#11 milestone (provider-agnostic, multi-provider login, agentic
vision experts) and folds in the pre-release adversarial-review hardening.

Added

  • Multiple source references per data row (#5): chronos_page/bbox/source may be
    lists, rendering one clickable citation chip per reference; scalars stay
    backward-compatible.
  • Resizable data-viewer columns: drag a header's right edge, double-click to
    auto-fit.
  • First-class in-panel login (#6): header "Log in" button, a "no models"
    banner, the chronos.login command, and a Getting Started walkthrough — plus
    Anthropic subscription (Claude Pro/Max) OAuth sign-in. No more pi /login in chat.
  • Vision experts run a bounded agentic tool loop (#11): they can view_region /
    view_page and read the workspace to self-zoom, instead of answering from one
    fixed crop. Read-only by default; bash/write/edit are human-gated per call.
  • Auto-generated session names (#8) from a cheap, provider-aware model, cached
    in a sidecar with graceful fallback to the first-message truncation.
  • Auto-start the agent when a Chronos workspace (a .chronos/ folder) is opened
    (opt out with chronos.autoStartSession).
  • Dedicated setup command + Getting Started walkthrough.

Changed

  • Provider-agnostic (#7): no Gemini-specific API-key prompt and no hardcoded
    Gemini default expert model; experts fall back to the orchestrator's current
    model, and model recommendations moved to the docs.
  • "N messages" in the history list counts only user prompts (#9).
  • A new session resets the page viewer + source dropdown so the display matches
    the (empty) selection (#10).
  • Migrated pi peer deps to @earendil-works (0.79).

Fixed / Security (pre-release adversarial review)

  • Read-only experts can no longer read .chronos/.env (provider API keys) via
    read_file / list_dir / grep — the dot-dir/SKIP_DIRS policy now covers every
    path-based tool.
  • A mid-flight expert cancel is no longer committed as a successful turn (it had
    written "(empty response)" to output files and dropped the turn on restore).
  • Column-resize and splitter drags use pointer capture, so a pointer-up released
    outside the webview can't leak the move listener (previously stuck a column to
    the cursor with no recovery short of reload).
  • Auto-start is gated on a reconciled bootstrap, so it never fires an unsolicited
    pi install; concurrent starts are serialised to avoid a double panel.
  • Credential files (.chronos/.env and ~/.pi/agent/auth.json) are written 0o600;
    the chronos.piPackageSource / piNpmPackage dev overrides are machine-scoped so
    a workspace can't inject them into the setup shell command.
  • Helper-model ladder prefers a provider's current small tier / rolling "*-latest"
    alias over the registry's retired "cheapest" (which 404s); plus view_region
    bbox-bounds clamping and history-label fixes.
