A slash command sent as the first (or any idle) message showed the raw
command text twice until reload: once from the client's optimistic insert
and once from the server's message.append echo, neither of which converges
with the agent's canonical expanded message (e.g. a /skill:* block).
Make commands obey the same source-of-truth contract as prompts:
- client no longer inserts the raw command text optimistically; it shows
the existing per-session sending indicator instead
- forwarded runtime/skill commands return a bare done result rather than a
synthetic "Accepted ..." line
- server suppresses the raw message.append echo for command-forwarded
prompts (threaded through the compaction queue too)
Result: pre-reload state matches reload, with no transient duplicate.
Add a project-scoped spawn_session tool so agents can dispatch new,
independent sessions (ralph loops, long-plan chaining). Spawned sessions
are constrained to a workspace/worktree of the same registered project,
appear in the session list immediately via a new session.created event,
and the capability is on by default with a Settings -> Session daemon
toggle (spawnSessions / PI_WEB_SPAWN_SESSIONS).
Note: adds a session daemon code path, so pi-web-sessiond.service must be
restarted manually for the server side to take effect.
Build on the original Reload action with the fixes raised in review:
- Server reload() now refuses to run on archived (read-only) sessions
and when the session has work in progress, mirroring archive(), so a
reload can no longer silently abort an in-flight agent run.
- Add a sessions.reload runtime capability; the client gates both the
reloadSession call and the Reload menu entry on it so the action only
appears for machines whose Pi-Web runtime supports it.
- reloadSession ignores cached-new and archived sessions.
- Add server (PiSessionService + routes) and client (SessionController)
tests covering reload success, the active-work guard, archived
rejection, route forwarding, capability gating, and error mapping.
- Restore alphabetical parser import ordering in clients.ts.
- Add a changeset documenting the feature and the sessiond restart note.
Note: touches a session daemon code path, so pi-web-sessiond.service
must be restarted manually for the server side to take effect.
Sessiond caches the in-memory SessionManager and never re-reads the
session file. When the same session is also being edited by another
process (e.g. the pi CLI), new entries on disk are invisible to the
web UI \u2014 the tail of the conversation gets cut.
Add a manual Reload action in the session three-dot menu:
- Server: PiSessionService.reload(sessionId) closes the active
session and re-opens it from disk, then publishes a fresh status.
Exposed as POST /api/.../sessions/:sessionId/reload.
- Client: api.reloadSession, SessionController.reloadSession which
discards the cached transcript and re-runs selectSession so the
history page is re-fetched.
- ChatTranscriptStore gains discard(sessionId) and the history
cache adapter gains optional remove(sessionId).
- SessionList shows a Reload entry for non-archived, non-cached
sessions; plumbed through AppNavigationPanel and PiWebApp.
Note: pi-web-sessiond.service must be restarted manually after this
change since the session daemon code path is affected.
Depend on @earendil-works/pi-agent-core so the ThinkingLevel union has a single source of truth (re-exported via shared/thinkingLevels). Wire/data fields use string and the parser is lenient, so an unknown level from a newer pi runtime is still listed, selectable, and rendered gracefully instead of throwing. The composer gauge now derives its bar count from the levels available for the current model and fills by rank. Adds compile-time drift guards (satisfies + Exclude check) and unit tests so a changed pi level set fails fast in development.
Support pasting (Ctrl/Cmd+V), drag-and-drop, and an Attach button to add
PNG/JPEG/GIF/WebP images to a message, with thumbnail previews and
multi-image support.
Attachments are delivered to the session using pi's native ImageContent
format and are run through pi's own resizeImage so they match pi's inline
image limits exactly. Image content now renders inline in the transcript.
A per-message delivery toggle also lets users save attachments into the
workspace `.pi-web/paste` folder and reference them so the agent reads
them with its own tools.
The accepted HTTP upload size is configurable via PI_WEB_MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES
or the maxUploadBytes config value (default 64 MB).
Closes#13
Sessions outside the server's launch directory were invisible and returned
404 on open, leaving the model picker empty. List without the SDK's
process-cwd filter and normalize working directories at the API boundary and
when reading stored session data, tolerating separator/normalization
differences (including Windows backslash vs forward slash). Requires Pi
coding agent SDK 0.78.0 or newer.
