v3.6.7

Added

  • 3-Layer Model Registry (#242) — Replaced hardcoded substring matching for model context windows with a data-driven registry system:

    • Bundled registry (data/model_registry.json) — compiled into binary, covers 40+ models
    • Local registry (~/.config/lean-ctx/model_registry.json) — auto-updated via lean-ctx update
    • User overrides ([model_context_windows] in config.toml) — highest priority
    • Supports exact match, prefix match (e.g. gpt-5.5-0513 matches gpt-5.5), and family fallback
    • GPT-5.5: 1,048,576 | GPT-4.1: 1,047,576 | Gemini: 1,048,576 | Claude: 200,000

  • ctx_shell env parameter (#241) — New optional env object in tool schema lets LLMs explicitly pass environment variables to child processes. Useful for agent runtime vars (e.g. CODEX_THREAD_ID).

  • Agent env auto-forwarding (#241) — CODEX_*, CLAUDE_*, OPENCODE_*, HERMES_* prefixed environment variables from the parent MCP server process are automatically forwarded to child commands. Solves the problem of agent hosts starting MCP servers with a stripped environment.

  • PathJail container bypass (#240) — PathJail automatically disables in Docker/Podman containers via is_container() detection. Manual opt-out via path_jail = false in config.toml or LEAN_CTX_NO_JAIL=1 env var.

  • Copilot CLI support (#243) — Dedicated CopilotCli config type that writes to ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json with the correct format (mcpServers key, "type": "local", "tools": ["*"]). Copilot CLI is now a separate target from VS Code.

Fixed

  • Benchmark honesty — Structural compression modes (map, signatures) are now excluded from "best mode" ranking for non-code file types (Markdown, JSON, CSS, HTML, YAML, XML). These modes extract code structures (functions, classes) and are not applicable to data/markup files. Previous reports showed misleading 100% savings for JSON and 99.9% for Markdown; corrected to 0.5% and 5.6% respectively.

  • Copilot CLI MCP config (#243) — lean-ctx init --agent copilot now writes to ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json (not VS Code's Application Support path). Uses "mcpServers" container key, "type": "local", and includes required "tools": ["*"] field per GitHub docs.

  • PathJail CWD fallback (#240) — Project root derivation now includes a guarded CWD fallback with is_broad_or_unsafe_root() protection. Differentiated error messages explain why a path was rejected and how to fix it.

  • Invalid JSON config handling — All IDE config writers now use text-based injection for invalid JSON files instead of destructive overwrites. Original files are preserved; users get clear instructions on how to fix syntax errors.

Changed

  • VS Code / Copilot split — The combined "VS Code / Copilot" target is now two separate targets: "VS Code" (agent_key: vscode) and "Copilot CLI" (agent_key: copilot). Existing VS Code configurations are not affected.

Upgrade

lean-ctx update                 # recommended (auto-downloads + refreshes shell hooks)
cargo install lean-ctx          # or
npm update -g lean-ctx-bin      # or
brew upgrade lean-ctx

Note: After upgrading via cargo/npm/brew, run lean-ctx setup to refresh shell aliases. lean-ctx update does this automatically.
