v0.79.10

New Features

• Extension compaction event context - Extension session_before_compact and session_compact events now include reason and willRetry, so extensions can distinguish manual /compact, threshold auto-compaction, and overflow retry flows. See session_before_compact / session_compact and Custom Summarization via Extensions.
• Safer update flow - pi update installs the exact checked Pi version, and update notices show the changelog URL, making upgrades more predictable. See Install and Manage.

Added

• Added reason and willRetry metadata to extension session_before_compact and session_compact events so extensions can distinguish manual, threshold, and overflow compaction flows (#5962 by @PizzaMarinara).

Fixed

• Fixed the find tool to respect nested git repository boundaries when parent .gitignore rules ignore the nested repo (#5960).
• Fixed the usage docs slash command table to include /trust and /import (#5959).
• Fixed inherited OpenAI-compatible streaming to preserve encrypted reasoning_details that arrive before matching tool call deltas (#5114).
• Fixed broken TUI documentation links to the plan-mode extension example (#5957).
• Fixed transient extension UI and session-start messages emitted during session replacement or reload so they remain visible, and kept reload input blocked until reload completes (#5943).
• Fixed the plan-mode example to preserve active custom tools, skip the action prompt when no plan is found, and queue refinement/execution follow-ups correctly from agent_end (#5940).
• Fixed pi update to install the exact version returned by the Pi update check, make --force reinstall that checked version, fail instead of falling back to an unversioned reinstall when no version is available, and report both the old and updated versions.
• Fixed update notifications to display the actual changelog URL as the hyperlink text.
