### New Features
- `renderShell: "self"` for custom and built-in tool renderers so tools can own their outer shell instead of the default boxed shell. Useful for stable large previews such as edit diffs. See [docs/extensions.md#custom-rendering](docs/extensions.md#custom-rendering).
- Interactive auto-retry status now shows a live countdown during backoff instead of a static retry delay message.
### Added
- Added `renderShell: "self"` for custom and built-in tool renderers so tools can own their outer shell instead of using the default boxed shell. This is useful for stable large previews such as edit diffs ([#3134](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3134))
### Fixed
- Fixed edit diff previews to stay visible during edit permission dialogs and session replay without reintroducing large-result redraw flicker ([#3134](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3134))
- Fixed `/reload` to render a static reload status box instead of an animated spinner, avoiding redraw instability during interactive reloads.
- Fixed the `plan-mode` example extension to allow `eza` in the read-only bash allowlist instead of the deprecated `exa` command ([#3240](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/pull/3240) by [@rwachtler](https://github.com/rwachtler))
- Fixed `google-vertex` API key resolution to treat `gcp-vertex-credentials` as an Application Default Credentials marker instead of a literal API key, so marker-based setups correctly fall back to ADC ([#3221](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/pull/3221) by [@deepkilo](https://github.com/deepkilo))
- Fixed RPC `prompt` to wait for prompt preflight success before emitting its single authoritative response, while still treating handled and queued prompts as success ([#3049](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3049))
- Fixed Alt keybindings inside Zellij by skipping the Kitty keyboard protocol query there and enabling xterm `modifyOtherKeys` mode 2 directly ([#3163](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3163))
- Fixed `/scoped-models` reordering to propagate into the `/model` scoped tab, preserving the user-defined scoped model order instead of re-sorting it ([#3217](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3217))
- Fixed `session_shutdown` to fire on `SIGHUP` and `SIGTERM` in interactive, print, and RPC modes so extensions can run shutdown cleanup on those signal-driven exits ([#3212](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3212))
- Fixed screenshot path parsing to handle lower case am/pm in macOS screenshot filenames ([#3194](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/pull/3194) by [@jay-aye-see-kay](https://github.com/jay-aye-see-kay))
- Fixed interactive auto-retry status updates to show a live countdown during backoff instead of a static retry delay message ([#3187](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/issues/3187))
