v1.116.0

[v1.116.0] - 2026-06-16

New Features

• Added a process-compose process send-keys command to inject keystrokes into a running interactive process's stdin, plus a shutdown.send_keys option to cleanly stop programs that only quit on a keypress, addresses issue #507.
• Added per-process success_exit_codes to treat selected non-zero exit codes (e.g. 130 from a signal-driven shutdown) as a success, addresses issue #506.
• Added process-level extends so a process can inherit and override the configuration of another process in the same project.
• Added automatic replica name expansion in depends_on, letting processes depend on a replicated group or on a specific replica, addresses issue #496, by @pcastellazzi.
• Added a PC_NAMESPACES environment variable as an alternative to --namespace/-n for selecting which namespaces to run, addresses issue #491, by @ddanier.
• Added the pc_process_logs_search (BM25 log search) and pc_project_dependency_graph built-in MCP control tools, by @jeanlucthumm .

Bug Fixes

• Fixed unfocused interactive processes blocking on a full PTY buffer by ensuring background drainage, addresses issue #508.
• Fixed a readiness cascade where dependents of an updated or restarted process could spuriously fail on a stale, cancelled process object, by @hebo6.
• Fixed a deadlock that wedged the logs WebSocket for an entire process under backpressure, by @hebo6.
• Fixed reloading a project that uses file-level extends, which previously failed with an "already specified in files to load" error after the first successful load, by @eike-hass.
