v0.5.1

The CLI grew from a chat REPL into a full agentic coding tool. Upgrade: pipx upgrade meshapi-code (see UPGRADE.md).

Getting started

  • First-run key setup — hidden input, live verification, saved to ~/.meshapi/credentials (0600). /login replaces it. No env var needed.
  • Built-in update checker — background PyPI check with a one-key upgrade offer; /update on demand; declining a version never re-nags.

Models & routing

  • Fuzzy model picker — /model qw pops a menu of every qwen model; gpt4m finds openai/gpt-4o-mini. /models [free|query] browses the catalog with context sizes and $/1M pricing.
  • Real auto-routing — /route auto (gateway picks per prompt, resolved model shown); route: cheapest|fastest|balanced never existed server-side and is gone. /fallback m1 m2 ordered failover; /reasoning high|….
  • Web search tool — the agent can search the web (permission-gated).

Agentic reliability

  • Self-healing tool calls — malformed streamed arguments (missing commas, raw control chars, index-shuffled fragments) are repaired client-side; the model never re-reads its own broken JSON. Kills the retry doom-loop on cheap models. Raw failures logged to ~/.meshapi/toolcall_failures.jsonl.
  • Quality guard — stub code ("// Add game logic here") triggers one automatic fix-it pass with concrete evidence, then an honest warning + model suggestion if it survives. Suppressed when you ask for scaffolding on purpose.
  • start_server intelligence — the port inside your command is detected and used; whatever port the server actually binds is adopted; progress ticker while waiting; "that's YOUR server, don't restart it" guidance; no orphaned processes on ctrl+c.

Terminal experience

  • Type while it works — input stays live during streaming; Enter stacks messages that auto-run in order; unfinished text prefills the next prompt; ESC aborts a running turn. (macOS/Linux; Windows: between turns.)
  • Permission mode always visible — shift+tab applies mid-run; answer a at any approval to allow that tool for the session (safety guards still apply).
  • Framed input with repo · git-branch title, streaming header with live token counts, phase-aware spinner (preparing write_file (↓ 3.2k chars)), background servers listed under the mode line, long streams tail-scroll instead of freezing.

Also

  • Session-allowlisted approvals are safety-checked at AUTO strictness (caught by a test that literally attempted sudo rm -rf /).
  • Windows: startup crash fixes, print-instead-of-run self-upgrade (running exe is file-locked), path-safe install detection.
  • README/INSTALL/UPGRADE rewritten with separate macOS and Windows commands.
