Full changelog
This release overhauls the TUI with a redesigned Agents panel, Agent Inspector, configurable keybindings, and image rendering in the lean TUI, plus fixes for provider thinking-budget leaks and OTLP trace export compatibility.
What's New
- Adds clearer thinking-state vocabulary in the TUI: effort gauge (6-cell), updated labels (
adaptive→auto), and token budget display - Redesigns the TUI sidebar Agents panel with a focus card and compact roster layout
- Adds a right-click Agent Inspector showing live and configured agent details
- Labels the delegation spinner with
parent → childfor at-a-glance readability - Adds configurable keybindings via
~/.config/cagent/config.yaml, including remappable send/newline keys (resolvesCtrl+Jconflict in VS Code and tmux) - Allows embedders to register custom tool renderers keyed by tool name or category, with built-in renderers as fallback
- Adds a pluggable
Storageinterface to theplantoolset (parity with thetodotoolset), with a default filesystem backend and per-instance construction - Appends OTLP signal path so trace export works with generic base-path backends such as Langfuse and LangSmith
- Renders images in the lean TUI using the Kitty protocol and reuses existing tool call renderers
