Feral v0.2.1

Released 2026-06-12 — Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel), and Linux.

Fixed

• Raw tool calls no longer leak into the chat. Two holes closed: the
  inference providers streamed the re-encoded <tool_call>{json}</tool_call>
  tag to the UI as visible tokens, and the frontend only suppressed tool-call
  text at the start of a streamed answer — prose followed by a mid-message
  tool call (e.g. <tool_call>{"name="memory_graph">) was displayed verbatim.
  Tool calls now travel only through the parsed content channel, and the
  streaming view cuts tool-call text anywhere it appears (including a partial
  opener at the end of the buffer), keeping the prose before it visible.
• The agent no longer stops mid-task on a malformed tool call. When a
  model emitted a tool call with corrupted JSON, the parser scrubbed it but
  executed nothing, and the loop treated the turn as a final answer — the
  task silently died. The loop now detects the malformed attempt and feeds a
  corrective nudge back to the model so it can re-emit a valid call (bounded
  at 3 retries).
• Parallel tool calls are no longer dropped. All providers (OpenAI-
  compatible, Ollama, Anthropic) re-encoded only the first native tool call
  of a turn; any additional calls were silently discarded, leaving the model
  waiting on results that never arrived. Every call in the turn is now
  executed.
• ask_user works reliably with native function calling. The native tool
  schema declared questions as a bare array with no item structure, so
  models had to guess the nested {question, options:[{label}]} shape and
  most calls failed validation. Tools can now publish a full JSON Schema per
  parameter, and ask_user ships one — including option labels, descriptions,
  the recommended flag, and multi-select.
