A failed or cancelled turn drops unfinished assistant text, and tool calls
whose result already arrived stay in history (and in the store), so /retry
continues from real results instead of running those tools again.
README and the example config cover the [skills] section, the five tools, and
the read/write split; AGENTS.md gains the skills/ package, the tool family, the
config fields, and the /skills + /status surface; architecture.md lists the
package. doc/skills.md is the author guide: layout, the frontmatter subset and
how a broken one degrades, roots and shadowing, what the agent sees, the
grant story for reads and writes, and the warning that a skill is data —
third-party skill directories are untrusted input.
Every builtin tool now prints the in-progress prefix (previously only the ones
with a renderer were named), MCP tools share one generic line, and plugin tools
keep the [tool] fallback. The parallel-batch fallback erases only its own line,
so the streamed line above it survives.
/history now works in turns (default: the last turn's user message and final
answer), with -v/-vv for intermediate rows and full bodies, and display-number
addressing (N / last [N] / --message N) that never exposes database rows.
Ctrl+C now cancels the turn (or the auto-retry countdown), cancels a poll-based
prompt read such as wait's, and is ignored with a hint for off-loop readline
prompts; it never exits the REPL and never reaches MCP servers, which spawn in
their own session. Also drop ask_into_pty's stale "Ctrl+C cancels" claim: that
prompt is readline-based and empty input is its cancel.
