 * **drop Ruby 3.3 support** <br>
-  The gem now requires Ruby 3.4 or later: `required_ruby_version` is
-  `>= 3.4.0`, the CI matrix runs 3.4 and 4.0, and RuboCop targets 3.4.
-  Ruby 3.3 cannot hold an interrupt for a ractor-backed tool call, so a
-  cancel that arrives before the tool starts is not delivered there, while
-  Ruby 3.4 and 4.0 both deliver it.
+  The gem now requires Ruby 3.4 or later. Ruby 3.3 cannot hold an
+  interrupt for a ractor-backed tool call, so a cancel can arrive
+  before the tool starts and never be delivered.
 
 * **activerecord: read a `:jsonb` record's messages from the column** <br>
-  [`LLM::ActiveRecord`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/ActiveRecord.html)
-  now answers `#messages` for a record whose `format` is `:jsonb` with an
-  [`ActiveRecord::Relation`](https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Relation.html)
-  over the column, through
-  [`LLM::ActiveRecord::Message`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/ActiveRecord/Message.html),
-  so a conversation can be filtered, counted, and ordered in SQL, and reading it
-  needs no provider and no credentials. Before this, every record loaded the
-  runtime and returned the messages it held, whatever the format. The relation
-  is not a drop-in replacement for that buffer: it reads what is persisted
-  rather than what a runtime holds in memory, it is unordered, so order by
-  `position`, and its rows answer `unwrap!` rather than being
-  [`LLM::Message`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Message.html) objects.
-  Every other format, and Sequel, still loads the runtime.
+  The `#messages` of a `:jsonb` record is now a relation over the stored
+  messages, so a conversation can be filtered and counted in SQL without a
+  provider or credentials. Before, every record loaded the runtime; reach
+  that again with `#messages!`, and order the relation by `position`
+  because it is unordered.
+
+* **function: hold a cancel on `:thread` and `:fiber` instead of dropping it** <br>
+  A cancel that arrived before the tool started used to be dropped, and the call
+  ran to completion. It is now held and raised once the tool starts, so a caller
+  that cancelled a task it had not yet spawned sees
+  [`LLM::Interrupt`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Interrupt.html) where
+  it used to see a return.
+
+* **interrupt: reach a turn that is between its requests** <br>
+  A cancel that arrived between two requests used to do nothing, because
+  there was nothing in flight to close and nothing running to raise into.
+  It now ends the turn where it is, raising `LLM::Interrupt` into the
+  caller the turn runs under and announcing `scope: :agent` to the tracer
+  first. `LLM::Agent#run_loop` records that caller for as long as the turn
+  lasts, and it answers `interrupt!` through
+  [`LLM::Agent::Interrupt`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent/Interrupt.html).
+  The raise lands in the thread or fiber the turn runs on, so it unwinds out
+  of the turn to whoever called it.
+
+* **interrupt: move `LLM::Interrupt` outside `StandardError`** <br>
+  `LLM::Interrupt` is now an `Exception` rather than an `LLM::Error`, so a
+  bare `rescue` and a `rescue => ex` pass a cancel through instead of
+  swallowing it. Before, a broad rescue in a tool, a tracer, or an
+  application could eat an interrupt, and the turn looked like one that had
+  ignored its cancel. It is not a `SignalException`, since an interrupt has
+  to be catchable and a signal is a framework's own condition. A caller that
+  handles a cancel names `LLM::Interrupt`; `#wait` and the tool's
+  `on_interrupt` hook are unchanged, and a task still carries the interrupt
+  back to the caller rather than raising it inside its reactor.
 
 ### ActiveRecord
 
 * **activerecord: add `messages!` for the runtime's own messages** <br>
   [`LLM::ActiveRecord#messages!`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/ActiveRecord.html#messages!-instance_method)
-  returns the messages the runtime holds whatever the storage format is, so a
-  jsonb record can still reach them now that its `#messages` answers with the
-  view over the column. It reads what the context holds, including state that
-  has not been saved, where `#messages` reads the column. The Sequel plugin
-  answers to `#messages!` too, where it is the same call as `#messages`.
+  returns the messages the runtime holds, including state that has not been
+  saved, where `#messages` reads the column. Use it to reach the live
+  conversation of a `:jsonb` record. The Sequel plugin answers to
+  `#messages!` too, where it is the same call as `#messages`.
 
 ### Agent
 
 * **agent: keep the instructions it injected in step** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html) now brings
-  the instructions it injected up to date before a request goes out, so a
+  An agent now refreshes its instructions before each request, so a
   conversation restored from saved state runs on the agent's current
-  instructions rather than on the ones it was saved with. The message is
-  found by a mark the agent puts on it, so a message the caller composed is
-  never replaced, and the mark is written by
-  [`LLM::Message#to_h`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Message.html#to_h-instance_method)
-  and read back on a restore, which is the conversation the refresh exists
-  for. Before this, the instructions were injected once and the message
-  stayed as it was for the life of the conversation.
+  instructions instead of the ones it was saved with. A message the caller
+  composed is never touched.
 
 * **agent: identify its own instructions by the mark, not by the role** <br>
-  Fix a bug where the agent decided whether it had already injected its
-  instructions by looking for a message with the `system` role. Google gives
-  instructions the `user` role, so the agent did not recognise the message it
-  had already injected and added another copy of the instructions on every
-  turn. It now asks the provider which role instructions are given, and
-  identifies the message it wrote by its mark, because on Google the message
-  a caller seeds a conversation with is a user message too.
+  Fix a bug where an agent on Google added a fresh copy of its instructions
+  every turn, because it looked for a `system` message and Google gives
+  instructions the `user` role. It now marks the message it wrote and finds
+  it by that mark.
 
 ### Console
 
 * **console: erase with the backspace key on OpenBSD** <br>
-  The console now erases a character for every code a backspace key sends. A
-  terminal that follows the Linux convention sends DEL (127), the OpenBSD
-  console sends ^H (8), and curses sends its own `KEY_BACKSPACE` when the
-  terminal's terminfo describes the key. All three erase. Before this only 127
-  did, so the backspace key did nothing on the OpenBSD console.
+  The console now erases for every code a backspace key sends: DEL (127),
+  ^H (8), and curses's `KEY_BACKSPACE`. Before, only 127 worked, so
+  backspace did nothing on the OpenBSD console.
 
 ### Fix
 
 * **fork: require xchan.rb `~> 0.24`** <br>
-  The `:fork` concurrency strategy now requires the `xchan.rb` gem at `~> 0.24`
-  instead of `~> 0.23`, and the gemspec's development dependency follows. An
-  application that uses `:fork` needs `xchan.rb` 0.24 or later.
+  The `:fork` strategy now needs `xchan.rb` 0.24 or later, up from 0.23.
 
 ### Function
 
 * **function: deliver an interrupt to the tool, not to whatever is running** <br>
-  [`LLM::Function::Window`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Window.html)
-  is the stretch of a call that an interrupt belongs to. The `:fork` and `:ractor`
-  strategies now raise
+  A cancel now raises
   [`LLM::Interrupt`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Interrupt.html) on the
-  thread that runs the tool, and only while the tool runs: a cancel that arrives
-  before the tool starts is held until it does, so the tool's own `rescue` can
-  handle it, and one that arrives after the tool has returned is a no-op, which
-  no longer throws the result away. Before this, the interrupt was raised on the
-  child process's or the ractor's main thread wherever that thread had got to.
+  thread running the tool, and only while it runs: arriving early, it is held
+  until the tool starts, so the tool's own `rescue` sees it; arriving late, it
+  is a no-op instead of throwing the result away. Applies to `:fork` and
+  `:ractor`.
 
 * **function: answer a ractor-backed task once its ractor has gone** <br>
-  A `:ractor` tool's result is handed to a ractor the task holds it in,
-  rather than asked of the ractor that ran the tool, which answers `alive?`
-  while the tool runs and goes once the result is in. So a wait that arrives
-  after the tool has run is answered, a second wait is answered from memory,
-  the way
-  [`LLM::Function::Thread::Task#wait`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Thread/Task.html#wait-instance_method)
-  answers from the thread's value, and `alive?` answers `false` once the task
-  has been waited on. A cancel returns `nil` rather than raising, which is what
-  lets
-  [`LLM::Function::Ractor::Group#interrupt!`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Ractor/Group.html#interrupt!-instance_method)
-  reach every task it holds. Before this, a wait that arrived once the tool had
-  run raised `Ractor::ClosedError` or never came back, a cancel raised the same
-  error, and a group's cancel stopped at the first task that had already
-  returned, leaving the calls after it uncancelled.
+  A `:ractor` tool's result is now held by the task instead of asked of the
+  ractor that ran it, so a late wait is answered, a second wait comes from
+  memory, and a cancel returns `nil` instead of raising. A group's cancel now
+  reaches every task, not just the ones still running.
 
 * **function: tell an `:async` tool it was cancelled** <br>
-  A cancel now raises `LLM::Interrupt` on the fiber the tool runs in, through the
-  reactor's scheduler, so the tool is told and can answer with its own value. A
-  cancel that arrives before the tool started stops it from running, and the
-  reactor is stopped by whoever waits. Before this, the cancel pushed an
-  interrupt sentinel to the task's result queue and left the tool running, its
-  side effects happening and its result written to a queue nobody read, and the
-  reactor thread stayed alive until a group's `wait` stopped it.
+  A cancel now raises `LLM::Interrupt` on the fiber the tool runs in, so the
+  tool is told and can clean up. Before, the cancel was queued and the tool
+  kept running, its result written to a queue nobody read.
 
 * **function: run the interrupt hook on every strategy** <br>
   A tool that implements
   [`LLM::Tool#on_interrupt`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool.html#on_interrupt-instance_method)
-  or
-  [`LLM::Tool#on_cancel`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool.html#on_cancel-instance_method)
-  is now told on every concurrency strategy. `:thread`, `:fiber`, and `:async`
-  run the hook on the thread or fiber that ran the call, `:fork` and `:ractor`
-  run it inside the child or the ractor before the interrupt is delivered, and
-  a sequential group's cancel tells every task it holds. Before this, `:async`,
-  `:fork`, and `:ractor` never ran the hook, the others ran it on the thread
-  that cancelled, and a class-backed tool ran it on no strategy at all, because
-  `interrupt!` read the hook off the tool's definition and a class answers
-  `respond_to?` with false for an instance method. A hook that raises becomes
-  what the caller sees in place of the call's result.
+  is now told on every concurrency strategy. Before, `:async`, `:fork`, and
+  `:ractor` never ran it, and a class-backed tool ran it on no strategy at all.
+
+* **function: hold a cancel that arrives before a thread or fiber starts** <br>
+  Fix a bug where a cancel that arrived before a `:thread` or `:fiber` tool
+  started was dropped, and the call ran to completion as if nobody had asked it
+  to stop. The cancel is now held on the task and raised once the body is live,
+  so the tool's `on_interrupt` hook runs and the caller sees `LLM::Interrupt`.
+
+* **function: answer a task that has already answered** <br>
+  A second `#wait` on an `:async` or `:fork` task is answered from what the
+  first one took, which is what `Thread#value` does, so a task that has answered
+  answers again. Before, a second wait blocked on a queue nothing would fill, or
+  read a channel the task had already closed. An interrupt re-raises the same
+  exception rather than blocking.
 
 ### ORM
 
 * **orm: save a conversation after each request, not once per turn** <br>
-  [`LLM::Step`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Step.html) is prepended
-  onto every stream by
-  [`LLM::Stream.try`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html#try-class_method),
-  so a conversation bound to a record is written down as it goes and a turn
-  that is interrupted can be continued rather than started over. It saves
-  through
-  [`LLM::Context#record`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#record-instance_method),
-  an ActiveRecord model through `LLM::ActiveRecord::Utils.save!` and a Sequel
-  model through `LLM::Sequel::Plugin::Utils.save!`, and the write is best
-  effort, so a failure is swallowed rather than raised inside the request that
-  has just completed. Before this, `talk` and `ask` on both wrappers saved
-  once, when the whole turn had finished, so an interrupted turn persisted
-  nothing.
+  A record-backed conversation is now written down as it goes, so an
+  interrupted turn can be continued instead of started over. Before, the
+  wrappers saved once when the whole turn finished, so an interrupted turn
+  persisted nothing.
+
+* **orm: drop the `set_tracer` callback** <br>
+  The wrappers no longer resolve a tracer from a `set_tracer` method on the
+  model. Declare it where an agent's other defaults are declared, with
+  `set tracer:` in the block, or pass it to the wrapper as `tracer:`, which
+  is what a context has. A model that implements `set_tracer` today loses
+  its tracer silently.
 
 ### Prompt
 
 * **prompt: let a message carry fields a caller attaches to it** <br>
   [`LLM::Prompt#system`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Prompt.html#system-instance_method),
-  [`#user`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Prompt.html#user-instance_method),
-  [`#developer`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Prompt.html#developer-instance_method),
-  and [`#talk`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Prompt.html#talk-instance_method),
-  along with its `#chat` alias, now take an `extra:` keyword, so a message a
-  caller composes can carry fields of its own. The runtime reads those fields
-  back rather than inferring provenance from a role, which is how an agent
-  tells the instructions it injected from a message the caller wrote.
+  `#user`, `#developer`, and `#talk` (and its `#chat` alias) now take an
+  `extra:` keyword, so a caller can tag a message with fields of its own. The
+  runtime reads those fields back instead of guessing provenance from the role.
 
 ### Provider
 
 * **deepseek: support image attachments in chat completions** <br>
-  DeepSeek's vision models now take an image through the chat completions
-  adapter. A tagged prompt object of kind `:image_url` is sent as an `image_url`
-  content item, and a local image file is sent as a base64 encoded data URI.
-  Anything else is rejected with a reason of its own: a remote file or an
-  `LLM::Response` raises
+  DeepSeek's vision models now accept an image. A `:image_url` object is sent
+  as an `image_url` item, and a local image file as a base64 data URI.
+  Anything else is rejected with a reason: a remote file or an `LLM::Response`
+  raises
   [`LLM::PromptError`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/PromptError.html)
-  because DeepSeek has no Files API, so a file id cannot be resolved, and a
-  local file that is not an image raises because DeepSeek's models read images
-  only.
+  because DeepSeek has no Files API, and a non-image local file raises because
+  its models read images only.
 
 ### Registry
 
 * **refresh model metadata** <br>
-  Update `data/` with current model listings, limits, and pricing. Alibaba adds
-  `qwen3.5-flash`, `qwen3.7-flash`, and `qwen3.8-omni-flash`, and gives
-  `qwen3.7-plus` attachments, structured output, and a lower price; OpenAI adds
-  `gpt-daybreak-blue-latest`, `gpt-daybreak-red-latest`, and `gpt-6.1-sol`, and
-  gives `gpt-6-astra` an `ultrafast` mode; Bedrock adds `openai.gpt-6-sol`,
-  `openai.gpt-6-luna`, `global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5`,
-  `anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5`, and the Grok 4.7 entries in both the global
-  and US regions; DeepInfra adds `tencent/Hy4-preview` and the Xiaomi MiMo
-  V2.6 Pro and V2.6 Flash models, and marks four older entries deprecated.
-  Bedrock also corrects the context and output limits of fifteen models, Google
-  lowers the limits of `gemini-2.5-computer-use-preview-10-2025` and
-  `gemini-3-pro-image`, and OpenRouter adds seven models, `openai/gpt-6.1-sol`
-  and `openai/gpt-6.1-sol-pro` among them, drops six, and reprices or corrects
-  the limits of many of the DeepSeek, Z.ai, Qwen, and Tencent entries.
+  Update `data/` with current listings, limits, and pricing. Alibaba, OpenAI,
+  Bedrock, DeepInfra, Google, and OpenRouter gain models and correct limits or
+  prices, and OpenRouter drops six entries.
 
 ### Schema
 
 * **schema: apply every `parameter` option to the leaf** <br>
-  [`LLM::Tool`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool.html) now applies each
-  option given to `parameter` to the leaf its type resolves to, so settings such
-  as `min:`, `max:`, `multiple_of:`, and `const:` reach the schema instead of
-  being dropped. Before this only `required`, `default`, and `enum` were read, so
-  `parameter :age, Integer, "Age", min: 1, max: 9` sent a plain integer and lost
-  the range. A `default:` of `false` survives now as well, where the old code
-  discarded a false default, and `required: false` marks the parameter optional
-  rather than being ignored.
+  Every option given to `parameter` now reaches the schema, so `min:`, `max:`,
+  `multiple_of:`, and `const:` are no longer dropped, a `default: false`
+  survives, and `required: false` marks a parameter optional. Before, only
+  `required`, `default`, and `enum` were read, so a tool that declared a range
+  sent a plain number and lost it.
 
 ### Stream
 
 * **stream: add `on_step`, called when a request completes** <br>
   [`LLM::Stream#on_step`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html#on_step-instance_method)
-  is a new callback, emitted from
-  [`LLM::Context#talk`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#talk-instance_method)
-  once the prompt and the response are in the conversation. It marks the
-  boundary between one request and the next, which is the point a stream can
-  checkpoint the conversation at, because a provider will accept it again
-  there. It fires once per successful request, so a request retried after a
-  rate limit or a timeout calls it when it lands and not once per attempt, and
-  it fires even when the stream is disabled.
+  is a new callback, fired once the prompt and response are in the
+  conversation. It marks where one request ends and the next begins, which is
+  where a stream can checkpoint, and it fires once per successful request even
+  when streaming is off.
 
 ### Tracers
 
 * **tracer: report a request that failed** <br>
   [`LLM::Tracer#on_request_error`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tracer.html#on_request_error-instance_method)
-  is now called wherever a request ends without a response, so a span that
-  [`LLM::Tracer#on_request_start`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tracer.html#on_request_start-instance_method)
-  returned is closed. Before this, a request was reported only when a provider
-  turned an error response into an exception, so a dropped connection or a
-  socket read that failed left the tracer holding a span it had opened and never
-  closed, which in a trace reads the same as a process that died. A failure that
-  surfaces as one of the transport's own error classes is reported the same way
-  unless the request was interrupted, and the exception the caller receives is
-  unchanged.
+  is now called whenever a request ends without a response, so a span is always
+  closed. Before, only provider errors that became exceptions were reported, so
+  a dropped connection left a span open, which reads like a process that died.
 
 * **tracer: add `on_interrupt`, called when a request is interrupted** <br>
   [`LLM::Tracer#on_interrupt`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tracer.html#on_interrupt-instance_method)
-  is a new hook, called with a `scope:` of `:request` or `:tool` before
-  `LLM::Interrupt` reaches the caller, so a tracer that has to record what
-  happened to a turn does it while the work is still in flight. An interrupt is
-  the third ending a scope can have, beside `on_request_finish` and
-  `on_request_error`, and it is not reported as a failure. Unlike the other
-  request and tool hooks it does nothing by default, because an interrupt is
-  delivered to whatever tracer happens to be bound, and a hook that raised would
-  replace the interrupt every caller is written against. A request is announced
-  with the span that `on_request_start` returned and its `request_id`; a tool
-  pass has neither, so both arrive as `nil`.
+  is a new hook, called with `scope: :request`, `:tool`, or `:agent` before
+  `LLM::Interrupt` reaches the caller, so a tracer can record an interrupted
+  turn. An `:agent` scope means the interrupt landed between a turn's
+  requests, where there was nothing more precise to interrupt. It does
+  nothing by default, since a raise here would replace the interrupt
+  callers are written against.
 
 * **tracer: announce an interrupted tool phase once** <br>
   [`LLM::Context#wait`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#wait-instance_method)
-  now calls the hook once when an interrupt unwinds through it, rather than once
-  per tool, because a cancel reaches every tool that is running and the caller
-  hears a single exception, so the announcement belongs to the phase rather than
-  to a tool. The hook runs before the caller is given the interrupt. A `:ractor`
-  call that answers `cancelled: true` instead of raising is not announced,
-  because the phase was not interrupted; one call was retired.
+  now calls `on_interrupt` once when an interrupt unwinds through it, rather
+  than once per tool, matching the single exception the caller receives.

-#### Migration
-
-| Old | New |
-|-----|-----|
-| `ctx.transformer = MyTransformer` | `LLM::Context.new(transformer: MyTransformer)` |
-| `transformer.call(ctx, prompt, params)` | `transformer.call(message:, **opts)` |
-| `~/.llm.rb/session.json` (shared across providers) | `~/.llm.rb/<provider>/<uuid>.json` (scoped per provider and directory) |

-| `guard.call(ctx)` (warning string) | `guard.call(function:)` (`LLM::Function::Return` or nil) |
-| `LLM::GuardError` | `"guard_error"` |
-
-* **replace the transformer setter with `LLM::Transformer`** <br>
-  The previous `transformer=` setter and 3-argument
-  `call(ctx, prompt, params)` interface on `LLM::Context` have been
-  replaced by the new
-  [`LLM::Transformer`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Transformer.html)

-
-* **cli: scope session persistence per provider and directory** <br>
-  `bin/llm.rb` no longer shares a single session file between providers.
-  Each provider now has a `~/.llm.rb/<provider>.json` file that maps the
-  current working directory to a UUID-scoped session file under
-  `~/.llm.rb/<provider>/<uuid>.json`, so sessions are scoped to both the
-  provider and the directory they were started in.
-
-* **cli: harden the executable against bad inputs** <br>
-  `bin/llm.rb` now prints an error message followed by the help menu and
-  exits with status 1 when the `-p` switch is given without an argument or
-  when an unknown option is passed. Previously unknown options produced a
-  warning but the run continued. The session-file lookup also no longer
-  rewrites `~/.llm.rb/<provider>.json` when it already exists.
-
-* **agent: replace `tool_attempts` with the `tool_budget` class DSL** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#tool_budget-class_method)
-  replaces the `tool_attempts` parameter with a `tool_budget` class DSL
-  (`tool_budget { 50 }`) that caps the number of tool calls allowed in a
-  single turn. Once the budget is spent, the agent sends an in-band
-  advisory message back through the model telling it to solve the problem
-  with fewer tool calls.
-  <br><br>
-  The feature is now disabled by default; the old `tool_attempts`
-  parameter defaulted to 25, which long-horizon agents could easily
-  exhaust in a single turn.
-
-* **guard: replace `LLM::LoopGuard` with the `LLM::Guard` class hierarchy** <br>
-  [`LLM::Guard`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Guard.html)
-  is a new superclass for context-level supervisors, with
-  [`LLM::Guard::Loop`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Guard/Loop.html)
-  (replacing `LLM::LoopGuard`) and
-  [`LLM::Guard::Null`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Guard/Null.html)
-  as the built-in implementations.
-  [`LLM::Context`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html)
-  now accepts `guard:` (a guard class defaulting to `LLM::Guard::Null`)
-  and `guard_options:` (a hash forwarded to the guard's `call` method),
-  matching the transformer and compactor interfaces. The old boolean and
-  hash forms of `guard` and the `guard=` setter are removed. `LLM::Agent`
-  enables `LLM::Guard::Loop` by default.
-
-* **guard: block individual tool calls instead of the whole batch** <br>
-  [`LLM::Guard#call`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Guard.html#call-instance_method)
-  now receives the pending `function:` and returns an
-  [`LLM::Function::Return`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Return.html)
-  (or nil) instead of a warning string for the entire batch, so a guard
-  can block a single tool call while the rest of the batch still
-  executes. Custom guards that implemented the old `call(ctx)`
-  warning-string interface must be updated to return a
-  `LLM::Function::Return` instead.
-
-* **errors: drop `LLM::GuardError`** <br>
-  Remove `LLM::GuardError`. The constant was never raised as an
-  exception; it only named the in-band error type for guarded tool
-  returns. Guarded tool returns now use the string `"guard_error"` as
-  their error type.
-
-### Core
-
-* **add `LLM::Provider#build_messages` for assembling outgoing messages** <br>
-  [`LLM::Provider#build_messages`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Provider.html#build_messages-instance_method)
-  normalizes a prompt into `LLM::Message` objects and prepends the existing
-  history, replacing the per-provider `build_complete_messages`
-  implementation. The method is idempotent: prompts that are already
-  [`LLM::Message`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Message.html)
-  instances or arrays of messages are returned as-is.
-
-* **copy the `params` hash in `LLM::Context` and `LLM::Agent`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Context`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html) and
-  [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html) now copy
-  the `params` hash in their constructors before mutating it, leaving the
-  caller's hash untouched. Previously the constructors deleted keys from
-  the caller's hash in place.
-
-* **gemspec: ship the deepdive sub-files in the gem** <br>
-  The gemspec now includes `resources/deepdive/*/*.md` in the gem
-  package, so the full deepdive guide (fundamentals, advanced,
-  protocols, and everything-else chapters) is available after
-  installation.
-
-* **add short aliases to `LLM::Cost`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Cost`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Cost.html) now
-  offers short aliases for its cost accessors: `input`, `output`,
-  `input_audio`, `output_audio`, `input_image`, `cache_read`,
-  `cache_write`, and `reasoning`. Each alias matches the key used by
-  `#to_h`, so `cost.input` reads the same value as `cost.input_costs`.
-
-### Provider
-
-* **add `LLM::Moonshot` for the Moonshot AI provider** <br>
-  [`LLM::Moonshot`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Moonshot.html)
-  is a new provider that talks to
-  [Moonshot AI](https://platform.moonshot.ai) through its
-  OpenAI-compatible Kimi API. Create an instance with
-  [`LLM.moonshot`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM.html#moonshot-class_method),
-  which accepts the same `key:`, `host:`, and `base_path:` options as the
-  OpenAI provider. The provider defaults to the `kimi-k3` model and
-  supports chat completions, streaming, tool calls, and structured output
-  through the shared OpenAI-compatible path; image, audio, moderation,
-  responses, and vector store endpoints raise `NotImplementedError`.
-  Model metadata ships in `data/moonshot.json` for the registry.
-
-### Transformer
-
-* **add `LLM::Transformer` for rewriting messages before they reach the provider** <br>
-  [`LLM::Transformer`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Transformer.html)
-  is a new superclass for message transformers. A transformer is bound to a
-  context and rewrites a single message before it is sent to the provider,
-  which makes it possible to redact personal information or rewrite any
-  message before it goes out over the wire. Each subclass implements
-  `call(message:, **opts)` and returns the message to send, either by
-  mutating it in place or returning a new one.
-  [`LLM::Transformer::Null`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Transformer/Null.html)
-  is a no-op transformer used as the default.
-
-* **hook the transformer API into `LLM::Context`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Context`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html) now
-  accepts `transformer:` (a transformer class defaulting to
-  `LLM::Transformer::Null`) and `transformer_options:` (a hash forwarded to
-  the transformer's `call` method). The transformer runs on the most recent
-  message in both chat and responses turns.
-  [`LLM::Stream#on_transform`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html#on_transform-instance_method)
-  and
-  [`LLM::Stream#on_transform_finish`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html#on_transform_finish-instance_method)
-  now receive the transformer instance as their single argument.
-
-### Tool
-
-* **add `LLM::Tool.set` for bulk-assigning tool properties** <br>
-  [`LLM::Tool.set`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool.html#set-class_method)
-  accepts a hash of `name`, `description`, `parameters`, `required`, and
-  `defaults` to configure a tool subclass in a single call. Parameters are
-  defined as tuples of `[name, type, description, options]`, matching the
-  same interface as the existing `parameter` DSL. Unknown keys raise
-  `KeyError`.
-
-### Function
-
-* **add `LLM::Function#return` for building tool returns** <br>
-  [`LLM::Function#return`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function.html#return-instance_method)
-  returns an
-  [`LLM::Function::Return`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Return.html)
-  built from the function's own id and name, using the given hash as its
-  value. It is a shorthand mainly useful inside a
-  [`LLM::Guard`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Guard.html)
-  subclass and is defined via `define_method` because `return` is a Ruby
-  keyword.
-
-### Guard
-
-* **run the guard for streamed tool calls** <br>
-  Fix a gap where the guard was not consulted when a tool call was queued
-  while a response was still streaming. The guard is now stamped onto the
-  functions a context binds, so it runs wherever a task is spawned,
-  including tool calls queued from a stream. A blocked call yields its
-  `guard_error` return without executing.
-
-### Agent
-
-* **add `LLM::Agent#compacted?`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent#compacted?`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#compacted%3F-instance_method)
-  delegates to the wrapped
-  [`LLM::Context#compacted?`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#compacted%3F-instance_method)
-  and reports whether the conversation has been compacted, so callers
-  can detect when history was trimmed.
-
-### Change
-
-* **openai: default to `gpt-5.6-luna`** <br>
-  The default OpenAI chat model has changed from `gpt-5.4-mini` to
-  `gpt-5.6-luna`. The new model is OpenAI's fastest and most affordable
-  option, matching the kind of default llm.rb aims for.
-
-### Repl
-
-* **show an unknown context state after `/compact`** <br>
-  After running `/compact`, the REPL status line now renders `Context
-  compacted` and the context-usage bar shows `???` instead of a percentage,
-  because the used context is unknown until the next response.
-
-* **land on a blank line after Ctrl+N at the end of history** <br>
-  When recalling history with Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N, Ctrl+N at the last item
-  now advances to a blank line so you can start typing new input, instead
-  of staying stuck on the last item in history (the previous behavior).
-  Recalling with Ctrl+P or Ctrl+N also no longer overwrites the input when
-  there is no history to show.
-
-* **restore history wrap for Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N** <br>
-  Fix a regression where Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N recalled history text without
-  reflowing it into rows, so recalled lines wider than the terminal were
-  clipped. Recalled text now flows through the same word-wrap path as
-  typed input and wraps at the terminal width.
-
-* **restore Ctrl+D deletion across rows** <br>
-  Fix a bug where Ctrl+D at the end of an input row was a no-op, so
-  multiline input could not be joined by deleting a row break. Deleting
-  at the end of a row now consumes the break and pulls the next row up,
-  restoring the split space so merged words do not run together.
-
-* **center the buffer with 20% gutters** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now centers
-  [`LLM::Repl::Buffer`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl/Buffer.html)
-  in a content area that is 60% of the terminal width, with an unused 20%
-  gutter on each side. The drawing area is based on the available rows and
-  columns instead of a fixed 80-column width, and `Buffer#wrap` now
-  hard-breaks words that overflow the width onto the next row, fixing a
-  bug where a word could be cut off between rows.
-
-* **apply markdown to previous messages** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now renders every message in the buffer with
-  markdown styling, including messages that were already present when
-  the session started or restored from disk. Previously only newly
-  streamed responses were styled; older messages fell back to plain
-  text.
-
-* **add `LLM::Repl#sender` for the user label** <br>
-  [`LLM::Repl#sender`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl.html#sender-instance_method)
-  returns the label used for user messages in the curses-based REPL. It
-  defaults to `"You"` (previously `"user"`), and the buffer layout now
-  places each label on its own line followed by the message content and a
-  blank line.
-
-* **add `LLM::Repl::Color` for coloring the curses UI** <br>
-  Add
-  [`LLM::Repl::Color`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl/Color.html)
-  as a new module that returns Curses color bitmasks. `Color.enable`
-  initializes 8 color pairs, and methods like `Color.blue` return the
-  corresponding `Curses.color_pair(X)` bitmask, which can be bitwise
-  OR'ed with other attributes such as `Curses::A_BOLD`. User labels in
-  the REPL are now rendered in blue instead of plain bold text.
-
-* **split on words rather than characters** <br>
-  `LLM::Repl::Buffer#wrap` now breaks text on word boundaries instead of
-  wrapping one character at a time. A word that does not fit on the
-  current row moves to the next, and only a single word longer than the
-  whole width is hard-broken, so text is never clipped by the window.
-
-* **render kramdown typographic symbols and smart quotes** <br>
-  Fix a bug where certain character sequences such as `...` were not
-  rendered at all in the curses-based REPL. Kramdown parses them into
-  `:typographic_sym` and `:smart_quote` nodes, which previously fell
-  through to the children clause and were dropped. The markdown renderer
-  now maps them to their unicode equivalents: ellipsis, en and em
-  dashes, guillemets, and single and double quotation marks.
-
-* **apply colors to the markdown renderer** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now renders markdown with the `LLM::Repl::Color`
-  palette: headers and strong text in white, code spans and code blocks
-  in green, and links in underlined green, on the black background.
-  Previously markdown styling used bold, underline, and reverse video
-  attributes only.
-
-* **wrap the input line at word boundaries** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input line now wraps words whole onto the next
-  row at the terminal width instead of cutting them in half. A word that
-  does not fit on the current row moves to the next row, and only a
-  single word longer than the whole width is hard-broken, so typed text
-  is never clipped by the window.
-
-* **distinguish the connecting and thinking status bar phases** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL status bar now shows `Connecting • Esc to
-  cancel` while the model is establishing a connection, then switches
-  to `Thinking • Esc to cancel` once a tool call or text fragment
-  arrives on the stream. Active tool calls appear in the status bar
-  with a lambda indicator.
-
-* **add emoji to the status bar phases** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL status bar now uses emoji to identify each
-  phase at a glance: a globe (`🌐`) while the model is connecting, and
-  a brain (`🧠`) while it is thinking. The text after the emoji still
-  reads `Connecting • Esc to cancel` and `Thinking • Esc to cancel`
-  respectively.
-
-* **render the status bar with color and attributes** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL status bar now supports colored and attributed
-  status text, so the lambda indicator for active tool calls is drawn
-  in bold red.
-
-### Registry
-
-* **refresh model metadata across providers** <br>
-  Update `data/*.json` files with current provider model listings and
-  pricing. Remove the deprecated Claude Opus 4.1 entries from the
-  Anthropic registry, add `Qwen/Qwen3.8-Max` to DeepInfra, and add a
-  `low` reasoning-effort option to DeepSeek.
-
-## v13.1.0
-
-Changes since `v13.0.0`.
-
-This release adds `LLM::Agent` class DSL attributes (`path`, `description`),
-extends skills with file-path loading and the `tools: all` directive, adds new
-built-in tools (`LLM::Tool::Ruby`, `LLM::Tool::EditFile`), introduces the
-`LLM::Tracer::PrettyLogger` for human-readable tracing, renames `Transcript`
-to `Buffer` across the REPL, ships a `bin/llm.rb` CLI entry point, and fixes
-several agent and tool bugs around persistence, interruption, and naming.
-
-### Core
-
-* **add post install message with deepdive link** <br>
-  The gemspec now includes a `post_install_message` that points users to
-  the deepdive guide at `https://r.uby.dev/llm/deepdive` after installation,
-  making it easier for new users to discover the project documentation.
-
-### Agent
-
-* **add `description` class DSL and instance method** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html) now
-  has a `description` class DSL (`description "release engineer"`) and a
-  corresponding `#description` instance method. The description is an
-  optional self-documenting string that serves as a brief summary of the
-  agent's purpose. It can be set via the class DSL,
-  `LLM::Agent.set(description: ...)`, or `LLM::Agent.new(description: ...)`.
-
-* **add `path` class DSL and instance method** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html) now
-  has a `path` class DSL (`path "contexts/admin.json"`) and a
-  corresponding `#path` instance method. When a path is set, the agent
-  automatically restores its conversation history from that file on
-  initialization and saves it back after each `talk` or `ask` turn,
-  making session persistence across process restarts transparent.
-
-### Skills
-
-* **accept a path to a markdown file** <br>
-  [`LLM::Skill.load`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Skill.html#load-class_method)
-  now accepts a path to a markdown file in addition to a directory path.
-  When given a file path, the file is read directly instead of looking for
-  a `SKILL.md` inside a directory. This makes it possible to load a single
-  markdown file as a skill without placing it in a dedicated directory.
-
-* **extend with `all` keyword for loading the full tool registry** <br>
-  `LLM::Skill` now supports `tools: all` (or `tools: "*"`) in the frontmatter
-  to load all tools from the global
-  [`LLM::Tool.registry`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool.html#registry-class_method).
-  Previously, the `tools:` frontmatter only accepted `inherit`, an array of tool
-  names, or nothing. The new `all` keyword makes it possible to give a skill
-  access to every registered tool without listing them individually.
-
-### Tools
-
-* **add `LLM::Tool::Ruby` for executing Ruby code in a subprocess** <br>
-  [`LLM::Tool::Ruby`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Ruby.html)
-  is a new built-in tool that runs a string of Ruby code in a separate
-  Ruby process with a configurable timeout (default 15s). The code runs
-  in an isolated address space unaware of its parent, making it useful
-  for safe(ish) dynamic code execution. It must be required explicitly
-  with `require "llm/tools/ruby"` and requires the `test-cmd.rb` gem.
-
-* **rename `LLM::Tool::SwapText` to `LLM::Tool::EditFile`** <br>
-  The `SwapText` tool has been renamed to
-  [`LLM::Tool::EditFile`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/EditFile.html)
-  to better match the naming of sibling tools (`ReadFile`, `WriteFile`).
-  The old `require "llm/tools/swap_text"` path no longer exists; use
-  `require "llm/tools/edit-file"` instead.
-
-### Tracer
-
-* **add `LLM::Tracer::PrettyLogger` for human-readable tracing** <br>
-  [`LLM::Tracer::PrettyLogger`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tracer/PrettyLogger.html)
-  is a new tracer that writes human-readable request and tool-call logs to a
-  console or file. Unlike the structured JSON output of
-  `LLM::Tracer::Logger`, the pretty logger emits single-line entries with
-  inline context, making it easier to follow agent activity at a glance.
-  It writes to `$stderr` by default and accepts an `io:` option for file
-  output.
-
-### Repl
-
-* **rename `LLM::Repl::Transcript` to `LLM::Repl::Buffer`** <br>
-  `LLM::Repl::Transcript` has been renamed to
-  [`LLM::Repl::Buffer`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl/Buffer.html)
-  to better reflect its role as a conversation state manager. The old
-  `start` and `finish` methods have been renamed to `open` and `close`
-  respectively. The public accessor on
-  [`LLM::Repl`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl.html) has been
-  renamed from `transcript` to `buffer`.
-
-* **add `write_message` for formatted message writing** <br>
-  [`LLM::Repl::Buffer#write_message`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl/Buffer.html#write_message-instance_method)
-  and
-  [`LLM::Repl#write_message`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl.html#write_message-instance_method)
-  provide a convenience method that takes a username and content string,
-  formatting the output with a bold `user:` label and a trailing newline.
-  This is simpler than the equivalent sequence of `write` calls.
-
-* **add `Command#write_message` and refactor `Command#write`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Command#write_message`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl/Command.html#write_message-instance_method)
-  provides a convenience method that takes a username and content string,
-  matching the same interface on `LLM::Repl` and `LLM::Buffer`. The
-  `Command#write` method is now implemented on top of `write_message`,
-  always prefixing output with `command(<name>): `. The `who:` keyword
-  argument previously accepted by `write` has been removed; use
-  `write_message` instead.
-
-* **display pre-existing agent messages when the repl starts** <br>
-  When
-  [`LLM::Agent#repl`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#repl-instance_method)
-  starts, any messages already in the agent's buffer are now rendered
-  in the REPL window. Previously the REPL started with an empty
-  transcript even when the agent carried prior conversation history,
-  making it harder to resume a session. Tool-call and tool-return
-  messages are skipped to avoid visual noise.
-
-### CLI
-
-* **add `bin/llm.rb` for launching the REPL from the command line** <br>
-  A new executable script (`bin/llm.rb`) provides a convenient way to start
-  an interactive REPL session directly from the terminal. It auto-detects
-  the provider from environment variables like `OPENAI_API_KEY`, supports
-  a `-p PROVIDER` flag for explicit provider selection, a `-t` flag for
-  temporary (non-persistent) sessions, and `-h` for help. Sessions are
-  automatically saved to `~/.llm.rb/` by default.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **agent: fix `path` restore on first run** <br>
-  Fix a bug where [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html)
-  called `@ctx.restore(path:)` even when the path's file did not exist.
-  The fix checks `File.readable?(@path)` before attempting to restore,
-  so the agent starts with a blank conversation on first use instead of
-  failing with a file-not-found error.
-
-* **tools: re-raise `LLM::Interrupt` to abort the turn** <br>
-  [`LLM::Tool::Git`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Git.html),
-  [`LLM::Tool::Mkdir`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Mkdir.html),
-  [`LLM::Tool::Rg`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Rg.html),
-  [`LLM::Tool::Ruby`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Ruby.html),
-  and
-  [`LLM::Tool::Shell`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Shell.html)
-  now re-raise `LLM::Interrupt` after killing their running command. The
-  previous behavior rescued the interrupt and killed the child process but
-  let the turn continue, which meant a cancelled tool call did not abort
-  the conversation turn. Re-raising ensures the entire turn is interrupted.
-
-* **tools: rescue `LLM::Interrupt` in shell-based tools** <br>
-  [`LLM::Tool::Shell`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Shell.html),
-  [`LLM::Tool::Git`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Git.html),
-  [`LLM::Tool::Mkdir`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Mkdir.html),
-  and
-  [`LLM::Tool::Rg`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Rg.html)
-  now rescue `LLM::Interrupt` and kill their running command, preventing
-  orphaned child processes when a tool is interrupted during execution.
-
-* **agent: fix default name derivation** <br>
-  Fix a bug where `LLM::Agent` used without a subclass derived its default
-  name as `"l-lm-agent"` instead of `"agent"`. The fix replaces the
-  regex-based parameterization with a pattern that correctly handles
-  single-word class names and multi-word namespaced names.
-
-* **function: `#params` always returns an `LLM::Object`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Function#params`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function.html#params-instance_method)
-  now always returns an `LLM::Object` representing the function's parameter
-  schema. Previously it returned `nil` when a function defined no parameters,
-  forcing every caller to guard against `nil`. All provider adapters now use
-  `fn.params.to_h` instead of `fn.params || {type: "object", properties: {}}`.

-(`:call` → `:sequential`, `:task` → `:async`), `spawn` is now
-`task`, and the `:async` strategy has been rebuilt from the ground
-up. It no longer blocks and now supports interruption. The compactor
-has been refactored into pluggable strategies. Interruption is now
-reliable across all six concurrency backends. The `functions` and
-`functions?` methods have been renamed to `pending_functions` and
-`pending_functions?`.

-### Breaking
-
-* **rename `LLM::Function#spawn` as `LLM::Function#task`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Function#task`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function.html#task-instance_method)
-  (previously `spawn`) now consistently returns a
-  [`LLM::Function::Task`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Task.html)
-  object that can be spawned, waited on, and passed to
-  [`LLM::Function::Group`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Group.html).
-  The old implementation alternated between spawning immediately or
-  returning a raw thread or fiber.
-
-* **rename concurrency strategies (`:call` → `:sequential`,**
-  **`:task` → `:async`)** <br>
-  The `:call` concurrency strategy is now `:sequential`, and the `:task`
-  strategy is now `:async`.
-  [`LLM::Agent.concurrency`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#concurrency-class_method),
-  [`LLM::Context#wait`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#wait-instance_method),
-  `LLM::Function::Array#task`, and
-  [`LLM::Function#task`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function.html#task-instance_method)
-  all accept the new names. The old names raise `ArgumentError`.
-
-* **rename group classes** <br>
-  Group classes have been moved into their strategy's namespace:
-  `FiberGroup` → `Fiber::Group`, `ThreadGroup` → `Thread::Group`,
-  `CallGroup` → `Sequential::Group`, `TaskGroup` → `Async::Group`,
-  `Fork::Group` → `Fork::Group`, `Ractor::Group` → `Ractor::Group`.
-
-* **repurpose `LLM::Function::Task` as a task interface superclass** <br>
-  `LLM::Function::Task` has been repurposed from a general-purpose class
-  that tried to support multiple concurrency strategies into an abstract
-  base class that defines the task interface. Individual strategies
-  (`Sequential::Task`, `Thread::Task`, `Fiber::Task`, `Async::Task`,
-  `Fork::Task`, `Ractor::Task`) now subclass it and implement
-  `spawn`, `alive?`, `interrupt!`, and `wait`.
-
-* **fix `:async` concurrency (now backed by a managed**
-  **`LLM::Function::Async::Reactor` on a background thread)** <br>
-  The `:async` strategy previously used `Async {}` which blocked the
-  caller until all tasks completed and did not support interruption.
-  The fix replaces it with a per-turn
-  `LLM::Function::Async::Reactor` on a background thread. Work is
-  submitted via `submit(&block)` and consumed by the reactor's event
-  loop through a thread-safe `Queue`. `Async::Group` manages the
-  reactor lifecycle and spawns tasks lazily on `wait`.
-  <br><br>
-  Interruption pushes [`LLM::Interrupt`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Interrupt.html)
-  to the task's result queue instead of using `Fiber#raise`, and
-  results are bridged back to the caller through a second `Queue`.
-  This work drove the broader refactor of strategy naming, the
-  spawn/wait split, and the `Task` superclass. The `:async` strategy
-  needed the same interface the other strategies already had.
-
-* **compactor: refactor to strategy-based interface** <br>
-  [`LLM::Compactor`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor.html)
-  has been refactored from a single class that performed LLM-based
-  summarization into a strategy-based superclass. Each subclass
-  implements a different compaction strategy via `call(**opts)`. The old
-  summarization approach (using `model:`, `token_threshold:`,
-  `message_threshold:`, and `retention_window:` options) has been removed.
-  The built-in
-  [`LLM::Compactor::Truncate`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor/Truncate.html)
-  strategy drops the oldest messages when the conversation exceeds a
-  configured size.
-
-* **rename `LLM::Context#{functions,functions?}` and `LLM::Agent#{functions,functions?}`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Context#functions`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#functions-instance_method)
-  and
-  [`LLM::Context#functions?`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#functions%3F-instance_method)
-  have been renamed to
-  [`LLM::Context#pending_functions`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#pending_functions-instance_method)
-  and
-  [`LLM::Context#pending_functions?`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html#pending_functions%3F-instance_method)
-  respectively. The same rename applies to
-  [`LLM::Agent#functions`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#functions-instance_method)
-  (now
-  [`LLM::Agent#pending_functions`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#pending_functions-instance_method)).
-  The `pending_functions` name was already available as an alias in
-  v12.5.0; this change removes the old `functions` name entirely.
-
-### Core
-
-* **extend `LLM.require` with an optional version argument** <br>
-  `LLM.require` now accepts a second `version` parameter that is passed
-  to `Kernel#gem` before loading, enabling version constraints for
-  optional runtime dependencies. For example,
-  `LLM.require "test-cmd.rb", "~> 2.2"` ensures a minimum gem version
-  is available. This is used internally by the `Git`, `Rg`, `Mkdir`,
-  and `Shell` tools to enforce compatibility with the `test-cmd.rb` gem.
-
-### Compactor
-
-* **add `Truncate` strategy for dropping oldest messages** <br>
-  [`LLM::Compactor::Truncate`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor/Truncate.html)
-  is a new built-in compaction strategy that drops the oldest messages
-  when the conversation exceeds a configured size. It preserves tool
-  call/return pairs so the algorithm never breaks in the middle of a
-  sequence. Configured with `keep:` (default 64), it emits the standard
-  `on_compaction` and `on_compaction_finish`
-  [`LLM::Stream`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html)
-  lifecycle callbacks. No LLM call is made; the strategy is purely
-  lossy but fast and requires no network.
-
-* **raise when given an unparseable `keep:` value** <br>
-  `LLM::Compactor::Truncate` now raises `ArgumentError` when the `keep:`
-  parameter cannot be parsed as an integer or percentage string, instead
-  of failing with an obscure error later during execution.
-
-* **accept percentage string for the `keep:` parameter** <br>
-  `LLM::Compactor::Truncate#call` now accepts a percentage string such
-  as `"80%"` for the `keep:` parameter, which keeps approximately 80%
-  of the most recent messages. Integer values continue to work as
-  before. This makes it easy to trim proportionally rather than to an
-  absolute number of messages.
-
-* **add `Null` strategy for no-op compaction** <br>
-  [`LLM::Compactor::Null`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor/Null.html)
-  is a new built-in compaction strategy that does nothing. It is used as
-  the default compactor when no strategy is configured on a context,
-  ensuring the compactor interface is always present without requiring a
-  separate nil check.
-
-* **accept both `LLM::Agent` and `LLM::Context`** <br>
-  [`LLM::Compactor#initialize`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor.html#initialize-instance_method)
-  now accepts both `LLM::Agent` and `LLM::Context` instances. When given
-  an agent, the internal context is unwrapped automatically, making the
-  compactor API more flexible when working with agents.
-
-#### Context integration
-
-* **accept `compactor` and `compactor_options` parameters** <br>
-  [`LLM::Context`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Context.html)
-  now accepts `compactor:` (a compactor class defaulting to
-  [`LLM::Compactor::Null`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor/Null.html))
-  and `compactor_options:` (a hash of options forwarded to the
-  compactor's `call` method) parameters. The compactor is automatically
-  invoked at the beginning of each `talk` turn. The previous `compactor=`
-  setter has been removed in favour of constructor-driven configuration.
-
-* **`on_compaction` and `on_compaction_finish` receive a single argument** <br>
-  [`LLM::Stream#on_compaction`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html#on_compaction-instance_method)
-  and
-  [`LLM::Stream#on_compaction_finish`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Stream.html#on_compaction_finish-instance_method)
-  now accept a single argument (the compactor instance) instead of two
-  arguments (context and compactor). The context is still available via
-  `LLM::Compactor#ctx`, so access to the context is not lost. This
-  simplifies the callback interface for compaction lifecycle observers.
-
-### Tools
-
-* **add `LLM::Tool::Utils` module for shared command execution logic** <br>
-  A new
-  [`LLM::Tool::Utils`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Utils.html)
-  module provides shared `wait(command:, timeout:)` and `now` helper
-  methods for tools that execute commands. Tools that include `Utils` can
-  wait on a running command and automatically kill it when it exceeds the
-  configured timeout, using `Process.clock_gettime` with `CLOCK_MONOTONIC`
-  for precise timing. The module is used by both the `Shell` and `Rg`
-  tools internally.
-
-* **shell: add `timeout` parameter for command execution deadlines** <br>
-  The
-  [`LLM::Tool::Shell`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Shell.html)
-  tool now accepts a `timeout` parameter (default 60s) that automatically
-  kills commands exceeding the specified time limit, preventing hung
-  processes from blocking the agent indefinitely.
-
-* **rg: add `timeout` parameter for search execution deadlines** <br>
-  The
-  [`LLM::Tool::Rg`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Rg.html)
-  tool now accepts a `timeout` parameter (default 5s) that automatically
-  kills search commands exceeding the specified time limit, preventing
-  long-running searches from blocking the agent indefinitely.
-
-* **git: add `timeout` parameter for command execution deadlines** <br>
-  The
-  [`LLM::Tool::Git`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Tool/Git.html)
-  tool now accepts a `timeout` parameter (default 5s) that automatically
-  kills git commands exceeding the specified time limit, preventing hung
-  processes from blocking the agent indefinitely.
-
-### Schema
-
-* **properties are now ordered and support indifferent access** <br>
-  [`LLM::Schema::Leaf`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Schema/Leaf.html)
-  tracks property definition order in a new `index` attribute, matching
-  the convention already used by
-  [`LLM::Command::Parameter`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Command/Parameter.html).
-  Internally, `@properties` is stored as an
-  [`LLM::Object`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Object.html)
-  instead of a plain `Hash`, so lookups with both string and symbol keys
-  work.
-
-### Buffer
-
-* **more array-like message management** <br>
-  [`LLM::Buffer`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Buffer.html)
-  now exposes `first`, `reject!`, `select!`, `shift`, `clear`, `drop`,
-  `take`, and `reverse`, making it easier to query and mutate
-  `LLM::Context#messages` like an ordinary Array. `reject!` is aliased
-  as `delete_if` for familiarity.
-
-* **`last(nil)` no longer returns the last message** <br>
-  `LLM::Buffer#last` now uses an internal `UNDEFINED` sentinel to
-  distinguish between no argument (`last` returns the last message)
-  and `nil` (`last(nil)` is treated as an argument). Previously `nil`
-  was indistinguishable from no argument.
-
-### Function
-
-* **consolidate `call` and `call!` into one method** <br>
-  The private `call!` method has been merged into the public
-  [`LLM::Function#call`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function.html#call-instance_method).
-  The separate `call!` method existed for tracer-scoping logic now
-  handled directly inside `call`. All internal call sites now use
-  `function.call` instead of `function.call!`.
-
-* **add `LLM::Function::Group` as an abstract base class** <br>
-  A new abstract base class
-  ([`LLM::Function::Group`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Function/Group.html))
-  defines the interface that all concurrency strategy groups must
-  implement: `alive?`, `interrupt!`, and `wait`. Each strategy group
-  (`Sequential::Group`, `Thread::Group`, `Fiber::Group`,
-  `Async::Group`, `Fork::Group`, `Ractor::Group`) now subclasses
-  this base.
-
-* **split `spawn` and `wait` across all strategies** <br>
-  `spawn` now starts execution without blocking, and `wait` collects
-  the result. `on_tool_start` moved into each task's `spawn` so the
-  tracer span covers execution rather than construction. Each task and
-  group now exposes a public `spawn` method alongside the existing
-  `wait`/`value` methods.
-
-* **spawn tasks lazily in `Group#wait`** <br>
-  All concurrency strategy groups (Fiber::Group, Fork::Group,
-  Ractor::Group, Thread::Group) now automatically spawn their tasks
-  when `wait` is called if they haven't been spawned yet, matching
-  the existing `Async::Group` behavior. This makes the spawn/wait
-  contract consistent across all six concurrency backends.
-
-### Agent
-
-* **add `name` class DSL and instance method** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html) now
-  has a `name` class DSL (`name "admin"`) and a corresponding `#name`
-  instance method. The name is resolved through the same lazy-resolution
-  path as other agent attributes. It can be set via
-  `LLM::Agent.set(name: ...)`, `LLM::Agent.new(name: ...)`, or the class
-  DSL. When no name is given, a default is derived from the class name
-  (e.g., `SystemAdmin` becomes `system-admin`). The REPL uses the name
-  as the prompt label and transcript prefix, making it easier to
-  distinguish multiple sessions.
-
-### REPL
-
-* **agent identity in the prompt** <br>
-  [`LLM::Agent#repl`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Agent.html#repl-instance_method)
-  and
-  [`LLM::Repl.new`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl.html#initialize-instance_method)
-  accept a `name:` parameter (defaulting to `LLM::Agent#name`) that sets
-  the input prompt to `provider(name)> ` and labels transcript messages
-  with the agent's name instead of a hardcoded `agent:`. Useful when
-  running multiple sessions.
-
-* **`/compact` command** <br>
-  New built-in `/compact` command frees context window space by dropping
-  the oldest messages via
-  [`LLM::Compactor::Truncate`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Compactor/Truncate.html).
-  Supports both integer (`/compact 32`) and percentage (`/compact 75%`)
-  arguments. Defaults to keeping the last 128 messages.
-
-* **tab-completion for `/` commands** <br>
-  Pressing Tab on an input line starting with `/` autocompletes the
-  command name. Repeated Tab presses cycle through matching commands.
-  Powered by
-  [`LLM::Command.complete(str)`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Command.html#complete-class_method)
-  which is available outside the REPL too.
-
-* **command system enhancements** <br>
-  Commands can set parameter defaults in their `call` method signature
-  (e.g., `def call(n: 128)`). Aliases like `/quit` now inherit their
-  parent's description and parameters. Commands also have access to
-  the active `agent` and `repl` via public readers.
-
-* **tool argument sorting** <br>
-  Tool parameters in the status bar are now displayed in definition
-  order (using the new `index` attribute), regardless of the order
-  the model returns them.
-
-* **expanded markdown rendering** <br>
-  The curses-based markdown renderer now handles lists (`<ul>`, `<ol>`),
-  blockquotes, horizontal rules, hyperlinks (underline), images
-  (`[image: alt text]`), and tables (aligned columns).
-
-* **input improvements** <br>
-  Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N walk through conversation history (user messages
-  only, managed by
-  [`LLM::Repl::Walker`](https://r.uby.dev/api-docs/llm.rb/LLM/Repl/Walker.html)).
-  Page Up/Down scroll the transcript by a page. ENTER and BACKSPACE are
-  now mapped to raw character codes from `Curses.getch` instead of
-  `Curses::Key` constants.
-
-### Object
-
-* **preserve the original key name in `KeyError` messages** <br>
-  `LLM::Object#fetch` now preserves the original key name when a key
-  is not found, instead of raising `KeyError` with `key not found: nil`.
-  The previous behavior occurred when the given key was not found in
-  the stored hash, causing internal lookup to return `nil` and lose
-  the original key reference.
-
-### Registry
-
-* **refresh model metadata across providers** <br>
-  Update `data/*.json` files with current provider model listings and
-  pricing. Mark several DeepInfra models as deprecated (`meta-llama/
-  Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct`, `Qwen/Qwen1.5-110B-Chat`, and
-  `mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1`). Correct xAI cache-read
-  pricing from $0.50 to $0.30 per million input tokens.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **agent: fix default name resolution when name is not explicitly set** <br>
-  Fix a bug where `LLM::Agent` derived its default name from
-  `self.class` instead of `self`, causing the name to be `"class"`
-  instead of a parameterized version of the actual class name
-  (e.g., `"system-admin"` for `SystemAdmin`). The fix uses `self`
-  directly, which correctly resolves the class name at the instance
-  level.
-
-* **function: make Fork::Task and Ractor::Task inherit LLM::Function::Task** <br>
-  `LLM::Function::Fork::Task` and `LLM::Function::Ractor::Task` now
-  explicitly subclass `LLM::Function::Task` and accept an options hash
-  as their second argument, matching the constructor signature used
-  by the other four task classes. The interface was already compatible
-  but the inheritance was missing by mistake. It is now consistent across
-  all six concurrency backends.
-
-* **google: fix `stream` parameter leakage that broke the provider** <br>
-  Fix a bug in the Google provider where `stream: stream.enabled?` was
-  being merged into request parameters, causing API-level errors. The
-  Google provider does not use a `stream` parameter. Streaming is
-  controlled via the URL path (`streamGenerateContent` vs
-  `generateContent`). The fix removes the leaked parameter and correctly
-  routes streaming requests through the appropriate path.
-
-* **fork: fix deadlock on xchan.rb channel** <br>
-  Fix a deadlock in the `:fork` concurrency strategy where both the
-  writer and reader could get stuck on the xchan channel, preventing the
-  reader from draining the channel. The deadlock surfaced as an errno
-  failure, especially with large tool returns. The fix requires xchan.rb
-  v0.22.0 and uses the `SOCK_STREAM` socket type for communicating a
-  tool's return value.
-
-## v12.6.0
-
-Changes since `v12.5.1`.
-
-This release adds bulk defaults for tools and agents: `LLM::Tool.defaults`
-for setting parameter defaults and `LLM::Agent.set` for mass-assigning
-class-level defaults, both mirrored on ActiveRecord and Sequel agent models.
-
-It also makes `LLM::Interrupt` reliable across every concurrency strategy
-(:thread, :call, :fiber, :task, :fork, and :ractor) so tool cancellation
-works consistently regardless of execution backend, and fixes a stale fiber
-reference in `LLM::Context#talk` that could prevent interruption after a
-prior call.
-
-### Add
-
-* **tool: add `defaults` method for setting parameter defaults** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Tool.defaults(properties)` for bulk-setting default values
-  on tool parameters, matching the same interface as `LLM::Schema.defaults`.
-  Each key maps to a parameter name; unknown keys raise `KeyError`.
-
-* **agent: add `set` method for bulk-assigning class-level defaults** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Agent.set(properties)` for mass-assigning agent defaults
-  from a Hash. Each key maps to a class-level accessor; unknown keys
-  raise `KeyError`.
-
-* **active_record: expose `set` on `acts_as_agent` models** <br>
-  ActiveRecord models using `acts_as_agent` can call `set` to
-  bulk-assign agent class-level defaults.
-
-* **sequel: expose `set` on `plugin :agent` models** <br>
-  Sequel models using `plugin :agent` can call `set` to bulk-assign
-  agent class-level defaults.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **function: raise `LLM::Interrupt` on thread where tool is running** <br>
-  On cancel, `LLM::Interrupt` is now raised on the thread that is
-  running a tool. The tool can rescue `LLM::Interrupt` and gracefully
-  terminate (e.g., clean up resources). The previous approach used
-  `Thread#interrupt` which was less reliable. It did not interrupt a
-  sleeping thread.
-
-* **function: suppress thread exception reporting in `:thread` concurrency** <br>
-  Threads spawned by the `:thread` concurrency strategy now have
-  `report_on_exception` set to `false`, preventing noisy exception
-  messages from appearing on stderr when a thread is interrupted
-  during tool execution.
-
-* **context: clear `@owner` after `talk` completes** <br>
-  `LLM::Context#talk` now clears the `@owner` reference in an
-  `ensure` block after the method completes, so `interrupt!` does
-  not attempt to interrupt a stale fiber reference from a prior
-  call.
-
-* **function: raise `LLM::Interrupt` on thread waiting in `CallGroup#wait`** <br>
-  When using `ctx.wait(:call)`, `LLM::Interrupt` is now raised on the
-  thread executing the sequential tool wait. `CallGroup#wait` tracks the
-  active thread and `interrupt!` raises `LLM::Interrupt` on it, enabling
-  interruption of the `:call` concurrency strategy just like the existing
-  `:thread` strategy.
-
-* **function: raise `LLM::Interrupt` on fiber-backed tool tasks** <br>
-  `LLM::Interrupt` is now raised on the active fiber via `Fiber#raise`
-  when interrupting `:fiber`-concurrency tools.
-  <br><br>
-  `Task#interrupt!` now dispatches by task type: `Thread#raise` for
-  threads, `Fiber#raise` for fibers. Making interruption reliable
-  across all concurrency strategies.
-
-* **function: raise `LLM::Interrupt` on fork-backed tool tasks** <br>
-  `LLM::Interrupt` is now raised on the main thread of a fork child
-  process via `Thread.main.raise(LLM::Interrupt)` when interrupting
-  `:fork`-concurrency tools, and the fork `Task#wait` re-raises the
-  interrupt on the parent side. Making interruption reliable across
-  all concurrency strategies including `:fork`.
-
-* **function: raise `LLM::Interrupt` on `Async::Task`-backed tool tasks** <br>
-  `LLM::Interrupt` is now raised on the underlying fiber of an
-  `Async::Task` via `Fiber#raise` when interrupting `:task`-concurrency
-  tools. `Task#interrupt!` now detects `Async::Task` instances and
-  dispatches to `Fiber#raise`, extending reliable interruption to the
-  `:task` concurrency strategy under the Async runtime.
-
-* **function: raise `LLM::Interrupt` on ractor-backed tool tasks** <br>
-  `LLM::Interrupt` is now raised on the main thread inside a ractor
-  via `Thread.main.raise(LLM::Interrupt)` when interrupting
-  `:ractor`-concurrency tools. A listener thread inside the tool
-  ractor waits for an interrupt message via `Ractor.receive` and
-  raises `LLM::Interrupt` on the ractor's main thread.
-  <br><br>
-  `Task#interrupt!` delegates to the mailbox to send the interrupt
-  message. Extending reliable interruption to the `:ractor`
-  concurrency strategy.
-
-## v12.5.1
-
-Changes since `v12.5.0`.
-
-This release reverts the global `LLM::Function` registry fallback for tool
-resolution that was added in v12.5.0.
-
-### Change
-
-* **function: remove the global registry fallback for tool resolution** <br>
-  Remove the `LLM::Function.find_by_name` fallback that was added in
-  v12.5.0 as an intermediate step between available-tools lookup and
-  raising `LLM::NoSuchToolError`. Tool calls not found in the available
-  tools list now go directly to `function_missing` (which raises
-  `LLM::NoSuchToolError`) without first checking the global
-  `LLM::Function` registry.
-
-## v12.5.0
-
-Changes since `v12.4.0`.
-
-This release extends the REPL command system with typed parameters, a
-built-in `/help` command, command aliases (`/quit`), and cancellation
-via the 'Esc' key.
-
-The default HTTP timeout is increased to 15 minutes (900s) to better
-accommodate reasoning models and large structured outputs.
-`LLM::Agent#deserialize` and `LLM::Agent#restore` now return `self` for
-method chaining, and `LLM::Buffer#pop` is added for tail-end message
-removal.
-
-Tool resolution gains a fallback to the global `LLM::Function` registry
-before raising `LLM::NoSuchToolError`, and `pending_functions` aliases
-are added on both contexts and agents for a consistent interface.
-
-Several REPL bugs are fixed including parameter state leakage across
-turns and invalid tool-call error routing.
-
-Model metadata is refreshed across all providers with new Anthropic,
-OpenAI, Google, DeepInfra, DeepSeek, and xAI model entries.
-
-### Add
-
-#### Buffer & function internals
-
-* **buffer: add `LLM::Buffer#pop`** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Buffer#pop` for removing the last message from the tail
-  of the buffer, complementing the existing `#<<` and array-style
-  message management.
-
-* **function: add registry fallback for tool resolution** <br>
-  When resolving tool calls from a message, if the tool is not found
-  in the available tools list, it now also looks up the global
-  `LLM::Function` registry via `LLM::Function.find_by_name` before
-  creating a placeholder function. This improves tool resolution for
-  tools that are registered globally but not passed directly through
-  the request tool set.
-
-#### Consistent `pending_functions` aliases
-
-* **context: alias `LLM::Context#functions` as `LLM::Context#pending_functions`** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Context#pending_functions` as an alias for `LLM::Context#functions`,
-  so callers that prefer the more descriptive `pending_functions` name can use
-  it instead of `functions` when checking for unresolved tool work.
-
-* **agent: alias `LLM::Agent#functions` as `LLM::Agent#pending_functions`** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Agent#pending_functions` as an alias for `LLM::Agent#functions`,
-  matching the same alias on `LLM::Context`, so callers have a consistent
-  `pending_functions` interface across both contexts and agents.
-
-#### REPL command system
-
-* **repl: extend command system with parameter support** <br>
-  Commands can now declare typed parameters using the `parameter`
-  DSL, modelled after `LLM::Tool` and `LLM::Schema` conventions.
-  Parameters can be marked as required with `required %i[...]`,
-  and values are type-checked before being passed to `call`.
-  Argument parsing is handled by the repl: arguments are split
-  from the input string and assigned to parameters by position.
-
-  ```ruby
-  class Greeter < LLM::Command
-    name "greet"
-    description "Greets the given name"
-    parameter :name, String, "The person's name"
-    required %i[name]
-
-    def call(name:)
-      write("Welcome #{name}!\n")
-    end
-  end
-  ```
-
-* **repl: add `help` command** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Repl::Help` as a new built-in command, registered
-  automatically via the command registry. Typing `/help` shows
-  the `help` command's own name, description, and parameters,
-  while `/help <name>` shows details for a specific command,
-  including its parameters and whether each is required or
-  optional. Unknown command names produce an error message.
-
-  ```ruby
-  class Help < Command
-    name "help"
-    description "show help for a given command"
-    parameter :name, String, "The name of a command"
-
-    def call(name: nil)
-      if name.nil?
-        write("\n#{self.class.help}\n\n")
-      elsif command = LLM::Command.find_by(name:)
-        write("\n#{command.help}\n\n")
-      else
-        write "\nNo help for #{name} was found" \
-              "\nThat command doesn't exist.\n\n"
-      end
-    end
-  end
-  ```
-
-* **repl: add support for command aliases** <br>
-  Commands can now be aliased by creating a subclass of another
-  command (with `LLM::Command` as an indirect ancestor). The
-  first alias introduced is `/quit` as an alias of `/exit`.
-
-  ```ruby
-  class Quit < Command::Exit
-    name "quit"
-  end
-  ```
-
-* **repl: add `Command::Parameter#optional?`** <br>
-  Parameters now expose an `#optional?` method that returns `true`
-  when a parameter has not been marked as required, making it
-  possible to query parameter optionality programmatically.
-
-* **repl: add `LLM::Repl::Command#write`** <br>
-  Commands can now write output to the transcript via the `write`
-  method. Commands also receive a reference to the active repl
-  through their `#initialize` method, making it possible to
-  interact with the repl window from within a command.
-
-* **repl: display command errors in the curses UI** <br>
-  Commands invoked with too few arguments now display an error
-  message: `command(<name>): too few arguments`. Displayed directly in
-  the curses transcript area, giving immediate feedback instead
-  of silently failing.
-
-* **repl: add `LLM::Command` convenience constant** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Command = LLM::Repl::Command` as a shorter alias,
-  available once `"llm/repl"` is required.
-
-#### Misc
-
-* **repl: implement cancellation with the 'Esc' key** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now supports cancelling an active model
-  request by pressing the 'Esc' key. When a request is in progress,
-  the status line shows `thinking • Esc to cancel`, and pressing
-  Esc calls `LLM::Agent#cancel!` to interrupt the request. The
-  transcript displays `request cancelled!` to confirm the
-  cancellation.
-
-### Change
-
-#### Misc
-
-* **provider: increase default timeout to 900s** <br>
-  The default HTTP timeout for all providers has been increased from
-  180 to 900 seconds (15 minutes) to better accommodate long-running
-  requests such as reasoning models and large structured outputs.
-
-* **agent: `deserialize` and `restore` return `self`** <br>
-  `LLM::Agent#deserialize` and `LLM::Agent#restore` now return `self`
-  (the agent instance) instead of forwarding the context's return
-  value, enabling method chaining after restoring agent state.
-
-* **context: discard all messages from a cancelled turn** <br>
-  When `LLM::Context#cancel!` is called, all messages added during
-  that turn are now discarded via `Buffer#slice!`, preventing edge
-  cases where dangling tool calls between turns caused repeated
-  cancellation loops. The `#repair!` method now handles tool call
-  cancellations on the next turn instead of mutating the conversation
-  buffer directly at cancellation time.
-
-* **stream: drop the `error` argument from `on_tool_call`** <br>
-  The `on_tool_call` callback no longer accepts an `error` argument.
-  Previously, stream parsers passed both a tool and an optional error,
-  requiring boilerplate like `if error; queue << error; end` in every
-  callback. Error handling is now pushed directly onto the stream queue
-  inside each provider's stream parser, so `on_tool_call(tool)` is the
-  only signature. The REPL stream and base `LLM::Stream` class have
-  been updated accordingly.
-
-#### REPL internals
-
-* **repl: pass the repl instance to command constructors** <br>
-  `LLM::Repl::Command` subclasses now receive the active repl
-  instance via `initialize(repl)`, enabling commands to write
-  to the transcript and interact with the repl window.
-
-* **repl: `Command#write` prefixes messages with the command name** <br>
-  The `#write` method now prefixes output with `command(<name>): `
-  so command messages are consistent with the `user:` and `agent:`
-  labels in the transcript. The prefix can be customised with the
-  `who:` keyword argument, or set to `who: nil` to disable it
-  entirely.
-
-### Fix
-
-#### Misc
-
-* **function: avoid silent skip of tools not found in available tools** <br>
-  When a model calls a tool that is not present in the available tools
-  list, instead of silently skipping the tool call (via `next`), a
-  `LLM::NoSuchToolError` is now raised so the model receives feedback
-  about the invalid tool call and can correct course.
-  <br><br>
-  An additional fallback to the global `LLM::Function` registry is
-  tried before raising, so globally registered tools are still
-  resolved even when not in the per-request tool set.
-
-#### REPL bugs
-
-* **repl: don't persist parameter state between turns** <br>
-  Parameter state (such as `Parameter#value`) was leaking across
-  turns because the same parameter objects were being mutated
-  in place. A duplicate set of parameters is now created for each
-  turn, keeping the original parameter definitions intact and
-  preventing stale state from carrying over.
-
-* **repl: reply with error when given an invalid tool** <br>
-  When the model tries to call a tool that does not exist, the
-  error is now pushed onto the stream queue so the model can
-  see the error and correct course, instead of silently dropping
-  the invalid tool call and leaving it to `Context#repair` to
-  remove it from history.
-
-* **repl: fix save of initial runtime state** <br>
-  Fix a bug in `LLM::Repl#configure` where a non-existent path
-  argument was treated as no path at all, preventing the initial
-  runtime state from being saved after the first turn. The correct
-  behavior is to create the file so it can be written to after
-  the first turn completes.
-
-### Refresh
-
-* **Refresh model metadata across all providers** <br>
-  Update model listings, pricing, capabilities, reasoning options,
-  modality support, context limits, and release dates across all
-  provider registries (Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, DeepInfra, DeepSeek,
-  Google, Mistral, OpenAI, xAI, and ZAI). Notable changes include
-  Anthropic claude-opus-4-8 and claude-sonnet-4-6 additions with
-  effort-based reasoning, OpenAI gpt-5.6-sol/terra/luna and
-  gpt-5-codex additions, Google gemini-3-pro-preview and
-  gemini-3-flash-preview additions, DeepInfra Qwen3.5 and DeepSeek
-  V4 model additions, and updated xAI Grok model entries.
-
-## v12.4.0
-
-Changes since `v12.3.1`.
-
-This release brings major improvements to the curses-based REPL
-(`LLM::Agent#repl`). The REPL now supports saving and restoring runtime
-state across sessions, automatic paste-mode detection for fast bulk input,
-a command system foundation with the `/exit` command, and several new
-keybindings (Ctrl+F, Ctrl+K, Ctrl+Y). Tool calls are rendered with a
-compact function-call syntax in the status bar.
-
-Two new built-in tools: `LLM::Tool::Ls` and `LLM::Tool::Which` are
-available as opt-in additions for file listing and executable lookup.
-
-Model metadata has been refreshed across providers, the REPL loop
-internals have been refactored to use `catch`/`throw` for cleaner command
-routing, and several bugs have been fixed including a tracer restoration
-issue in the agent ensure clause and a missing cursor in the REPL input
-area.
-
-### Add
-
-* **repl: allow runtime state to be saved and restored** <br>
-  `LLM::Agent#repl` now accepts a `path:` option that serializes
-  runtime state to the filesystem. When the path already exists,
-  runtime state is restored when the read-eval-print loop starts.
-  Otherwise the path is written after the first turn, making it
-  possible to resume a session across process restarts.
-
-* **repl: scroll to the bottom on submit** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now scrolls the transcript to the bottom when
-  the user submits their input, so the latest response is visible
-  without needing to scroll down manually.
-
-* **repl: add Ctrl+F to move the cursor forward** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now supports Ctrl+F to move the cursor
-  forward by one column, matching common terminal editing conventions
-  found in shells like `/bin/sh`.
-
-* **repl: add Ctrl+K to erase from cursor to end of line** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now supports Ctrl+K to erase all text
-  from the cursor position to the end of the input buffer, matching
-  common terminal editing conventions found in shells like `/bin/sh`.
-
-* **repl: add Ctrl+Y to paste previously killed text** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now supports Ctrl+Y to insert the most
-  recently killed text (via Ctrl+K) at the current cursor position,
-  matching the yank/paste convention found in shells like `/bin/sh`.
-  The killed text is stored in an internal copy buffer so it can be
-  pasted multiple times or at different cursor positions.
-
-* **repl: add command system foundation** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Repl::Command` as a new base class for REPL commands,
-  along with the first built-in command `LLM::Repl::Command::Exit`
-  which exits the read-eval-print loop via `throw(:exit)`.
-  Commands are identified by a name and can be looked up through
-  `Command.find_by`. This is the foundation for the `/` command
-  syntax used in the REPL input line.
-
-* **repl: connect the command system to user input** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now routes user input through the command
-  system. Any input string beginning with `"/"` is matched against
-  the command registry via `Command.find_by`, and the corresponding
-  command is executed instead of being forwarded to the model.
-  This makes built-in commands like `/exit` functional from the
-  input line. Command arguments are not yet supported.
-
-* **repl: add `LLM::Repl::Command.registry`** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Repl::Command.registry` for auto-registering command
-  subclasses. The `inherited` hook captures each new subclass and
-  stores it in the registry, making it possible to enumerate all
-  available commands at runtime. Built-in commands like Exit are
-  automatically registered when the command file is loaded.
-
-* **repl: detect and handle paste mode in the input line** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now detects paste operations by tracking
-  the rate at which characters arrive. A paste rate of ≤50ms is
-  assumed to be a burst of characters that could only be explained by
-  a paste. No human types that fast. Multiline pastes are supported
-  through internal refactoring of the input handling logic.
-
-* **repl: optimize paste mode rendering** <br>
-  Track the paste state with an internal `@paste` variable and switch
-  to a faster input path during paste operations. While in paste mode,
-  the input buffer is drained via `Curses.getch`, bypassing the more
-  expensive char-by-char render path used for ordinary interactive
-  input. This makes pasting large amounts of text noticeably faster.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Ls`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool for listing files and directories, with optional
-  glob pattern filtering to narrow results. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/ls"`.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Which`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool for locating an executable on the system PATH.
-  This lets an agent check whether a command is available before
-  attempting to run it, avoiding failed subprocess calls. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/which"`.
-
-* **repl: render tool calls in a function-call syntax** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL status bar now renders tool calls with a
-  compact function-call syntax: `tool(key: value)` instead of
-  `tool: name`. Strings are quoted and truncated, arrays show their
-  first two elements, and hashes collapse to `{…}`, making it easier
-  to see what arguments the model is passing. The `tool done` status
-  message has been removed since the tool call itself conveys
-  completion information.
-
-### Change
-
-* **Refresh model metadata** <br>
-  Update model listings, pricing, and capabilities across providers.
-  Fix GPT-5.6 model family names in the OpenAI registry (`gpt` to
-  `gpt-sol`, `gpt-nano` to `gpt-luna`, `gpt-mini` to `gpt-terra`).
-  Add OpenAI models (`gpt-5.6-luna`, `gpt-5.6-sol`, `gpt-5.6-terra`)
-  to the AWS Bedrock registry. Update DeepInfra pricing for
-  `DeepSeek-V3` and `Sky-T1-32B-Preview`. Fix Google model knowledge
-  cutoff dates.
-
-* **repl: control the loop with catch & throw** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input loop now uses `catch(:exit)` and
-  `throw(:exit)` instead of returning the `:exit` symbol and
-  breaking out of the loop. This enables the `/command` syntax
-  without requiring an `:exit` return value to be propagated
-  through a potentially deeply nested call path.
-
-* **repl: replace Ctrl+D with shell-like delete-at-cursor** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now treats Ctrl+D as a delete action
-  that removes the character at the current cursor position, matching
-  the shell/Emacs convention where Ctrl+D deletes the character under
-  the cursor instead of signalling end-of-file. The previous Ctrl+D
-  behaviour (exiting the REPL) is superseded by the `/exit` command.
-
-* **repl: switch to 'Thinking' mode after tool return** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL status line now switches to "Thinking" mode
-  after a tool returns, so the user can see the agent is processing
-  the tool result rather than showing a stale tool-call status.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **agent: fix a subtle typo in the ensure clause** <br>
-  Fix a subtle typo in `LLM::Agent` where the deprecated `trace` local
-  variable was given preference over `tracer` (the preferred local name)
-  in an `ensure` clause. The `trace` local was supported for backward
-  compatibility but the ensure clause still referenced `trace` instead of
-  `tracer`, which meant the previous tracer was never restored when the
-  REPL session ended.
-
-* **repl: restore the cursor in the input area** <br>
-  Remove the `Curses.curs_set(0)` call from the REPL redraw method,
-  which was inadvertently hiding the cursor and making it impossible
-  to see the current position in the input area. The input field is
-  now always drawn at its full height so the cursor position is
-  correctly maintained after each redraw.
-
-## v12.3.1
-
-Changes since `v12.3.0`.
-
-This release fixes a flickering issue in the curses-based REPL redraw.
-The full-screen clear that caused visible flickering has been replaced
-with a targeted cursor-hide approach, and stale rows from a larger
-transcript are now explicitly cleared to prevent ghost text from
-lingering when the transcript shrinks.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **repl: fix redraw flicker** <br>
-  Replace `Curses.clear` with `Curses.curs_set(0)` in the REPL redraw
-  method to avoid a full screen clear that caused visible flickering
-  during redraws. The drawing order is also adjusted so the status line
-  is drawn before the divider, and stale rows left over from a larger
-  transcript are now explicitly cleared to prevent ghost text from
-  lingering when the transcript shrinks.
-
-## v12.3.0
-
-Changes since `v12.2.0`.
-
-This release brings major improvements to the curses-based REPL
-(`LLM::Agent#repl`). The status line now shows a context-usage bar and
-running cost counter, the input field expands to three rows with
-full cursor navigation, model responses are rendered as styled markdown,
-and the UI stays responsive while the agent is working by running
-requests in a separate thread. A new `LLM::Stream::IO` and
-`LLM::Stream::Disabled` provide a uniform stream representation across
-all stream types.
-
-Mistral OCR support is added for extracting text from images and
-documents via the `/v1/ocr` endpoint. The `skills:` and `tools:` options
-on `LLM::Agent#repl` let you attach additional tools or skill directories
-for the duration of a session. `LLM::Object#merge!` rounds out the
-in-place merge API, and a new `LLM.logger` convenience method creates
-tracer logger instances with less verbosity.
-
-### Add
-
-* **Add `LLM.logger` convenience method** <br>
-  Add `LLM.logger(llm, ...)` as a shorter, less verbose way to create an
-  `LLM::Tracer::Logger` instance. Takes a provider and optional keyword
-  arguments forwarded to the logger constructor.
-
-* **Add `skills:` option to `LLM::Agent#repl`** <br>
-  `LLM::Agent#repl` now accepts a `skills:` keyword argument that attaches
-  one or more skill directories (containing `SKILL.md`) for the duration of
-  the repl session. Skills are loaded and converted to tools, combining with
-  any tools already configured on the agent, and are discarded when the
-  session ends.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Provider#ocr` base method** <br>
-  Add a base `ocr(...)` method to `LLM::Provider` that raises `NotImplementedError`
-  by default, establishing a common interface for providers that support OCR
-  (Optical Character Recognition) on images and documents.
-
-* **Add Mistral OCR endpoint support** <br>
-  The Mistral provider now supports OCR via its `/v1/ocr` endpoint. Call
-  `mistral.ocr(image_url: ...)` for images or `mistral.ocr(document_url: ...)`
-  for documents (e.g., PDFs). Returns an `LLM::Response` with extracted pages,
-  markdown content, and structured block data.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Object#merge!`** <br>
-  Add `LLM::Object#merge!` for in-place merging of hash data into an
-  `LLM::Object` instance, complementing the existing `#merge` method.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Stream::IO` and `LLM::Stream::Disabled`** <br>
-  `LLM::Stream::IO` wraps IO-like objects as stream targets, forwarding
-  streamed content via `#<<`. `LLM::Stream::Disabled` represents an explicitly
-  disabled stream with no-op callbacks.
-
-  This is part of an internal refactoring that lets all stream values: IO
-  objects, `true`, `false`, `nil`, and `LLM::Stream` instances themselves
-  be represented by the same `LLM::Stream` interface via the new
-  `LLM::Stream.try` factory method.
-
-  Before this change the codebase had to perform ad-hoc type checks
-  (e.g. `if LLM::Stream === stream`) scattered throughout. After this
-  change all stream handling goes through a single uniform path, and
-  providers check `#enabled?` to decide whether to request streaming
-  from the API.
-
-### Change
-
-* **repl: rename `trace:` to `tracer:`** <br>
-  The `trace:` keyword argument in `LLM::Agent#repl` has been renamed to
-  `tracer:` for consistency with the rest of the codebase. The old `trace:`
-  name still works with a deprecation warning.
-
-* **repl: add context-usage bar and cost counter to the status line** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL status line now shows a small progress bar that
-  indicates how much of the model's context window remains as a percentage,
-  alongside a running cost estimate rendered on the right side of the status
-  line. The input line has been updated to show the provider name as a prefix.
-  Estimates are best-effort and depend on registry pricing data (see `data/`).
-
-* **repl: keep the UI responsive while a request is in progress** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now spawns the agent request in a separate thread
-  and communicates streamed output through a queue, so the curses UI stays
-  responsive during model processing. Users can continue to scroll through
-  the transcript while the agent is working.
-
-* **repl: style transcript rows as structured data with bold labels** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL transcript now stores rows as structured data with
-  style metadata instead of plain strings, enabling bold rendering of the
-  `user:` and `agent:` labels for improved readability during interactive
-  sessions.
-
-* **repl: render a small subset of markdown** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now renders model responses as styled markdown.
-  Headers and strong text render in bold, emphasis renders in underline,
-  and code spans and blocks are highlighted with inverted colors. Streaming
-  content is buffered and re-rendered on each tick so the transcript reads
-  cleanly as the agent responds. Requires the optional `kramdown` gem.
-
-* **repl: add cursor LEFT/RIGHT movement to the input line** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now supports cursor movement with the left
-  and right arrow keys, enabling in-place text editing before submitting
-  a prompt. The cursor position is tracked visually and moves backwards
-  on left-arrow and forwards on right-arrow.
-
-* **repl: add Ctrl+A and Ctrl+E keybindings to the input line** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input now supports Ctrl+A to jump the cursor to
-  the start of the input line and Ctrl+E to jump it to the end, matching
-  common terminal editing conventions.
-
-* **repl: add `tools:` option to `LLM::Agent#repl`** <br>
-  `LLM::Agent#repl` now accepts a `tools:` keyword argument that attaches
-  additional tool classes or instances for the duration of the repl session.
-  These tools are combined with any tools already configured on the agent,
-  and are discarded when the session ends.
-
-* **repl: add repl support to ActiveRecord and Sequel agent models** <br>
-  `acts_as_agent` (ActiveRecord) and `plugin :agent` (Sequel) models now
-  expose a `repl` method that delegates to the underlying agent's
-  read-eval-print loop. This allows interactive debugging and inspection
-  of persisted agent state at runtime. Note that changes made during a
-  repl session do not persist back to the database.
-
-* **repl: add extra padding between markdown nodes** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL markdown renderer now adds extra vertical spacing
-  between certain markdown elements: paragraphs, headers, and codeblocks
-  for improved readability of model responses.
-
-* **repl: add a visual divider between transcript and the rows below it** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL now draws a horizontal divider line (using a unicode
-  `─` character) to separate the transcript area from the status and input
-  rows below it. A single empty buffer row is also added between the
-  transcript and the divider, preventing transcript text from running too
-  close to the status and input rows.
-
-* **repl: expand input field to 3 rows** <br>
-  The curses-based REPL input field now spans three rows instead of one,
-  wrapping text that exceeds the terminal width onto subsequent lines. A
-  scrollable viewport follows the cursor so the active line stays visible,
-  and common navigation commands (Ctrl+A, Ctrl+E, cursor keys) work across
-  all three rows of the expanded input area.
-
-* **Refresh OpenAI model metadata** <br>
-  Add new OpenAI models to the registry, including `gpt-5.6`,
-  `gpt-5.6-luna`, `gpt-5.6-terra`, `gpt-5.6-sol`, and
-  `gpt-realtime-2.1`, with associated pricing, capabilities, and
-  limits.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **Fix Ollama non-streaming response handling** <br>
-  Fix the Ollama provider to properly handle the non-streaming path. When
-  the provider returns a raw NDJSON response body (instead of streaming),
-  the response is now parsed and merged into a single `LLM::Object` before
-  being returned to the caller. Previously the non-streaming path was
-  effectively broken and would fail to produce a valid completion response.
-
-* **repl: handle a negative context window allowance in the usage bar** <br>
-  Fix a crash in the curses-based REPL context-usage bar when the context
-  window allowance is exceeded (used > total). The negative width value that
-  resulted from this edge case could cause curses errors; it now gracefully
-  defaults to `0%` and zero bar width.
-
-* **Fix YARD documentation across provider and tool files** <br>
-  Fix unnamed, misnamed, and missing `@param` tags in `LLM::Repl::Status`,
-  `LLM::Tool::Git`, `LLM::Tool::Pwd`, `LLM::Tool::Rg`, and
-  `LLM::Tool::SwapText`.
-
-## v12.2.0
-
-Changes since `v12.1.0`.
-
-This release adds Mistral as a new provider with chat completions, streaming, tool calls,
-structured outputs, file/image attachments, and embeddings support. It introduces
-the `trace:` option to `LLM::Agent#repl` for keeping the tracer active during
-interactive sessions.
-
-Several fixes land for the Google provider (generationConfig parameter leakage),
-`LLM::Context#tracer=` (always assigning nil), `LLM::Provider#with_tracer(nil)`
-(nil fallback), and `LLM::Context#repair!` (dropping Struct returns).
-
-The default HTTP timeout has been increased from 60s to 180s to better accommodate
-reasoning models and large structured outputs, and the Anthropic default model has
-been updated to `claude-opus-4-8`. Model metadata has been refreshed across
-Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, DeepInfra, Google, and xAI, with Mistral model data added
-to the registry.
-
-### Add
-
-* **Add `trace:` option to `LLM::Agent#repl`** <br>
-  `LLM::Agent#repl` now accepts a `trace:` keyword argument. By default
-  the tracer is disabled for the duration of the repl session to prevent
-  curses UI interference from output written to `$stdout` or `$stderr`.
-  Set `trace: true` to keep the tracer active during the session, which
-  is useful when the tracer writes to a file rather than the terminal.
-
-* **Add a new provider: LLM::Mistral** <br>
-  [Mistral](https://mistral.ai) is now supported through its
-  OpenAI-compatible API. The provider supports chat completions,
-  streaming, tool calls, structured output (schema), file/image
-  attachments, and embeddings. Use `LLM.mistral(...)` to create a
-  provider instance.
-
-* **Add `LLM.mistral(...)` convenience method** <br>
-  A new top-level accessor (`LLM.mistral`) returns an `LLM::Mistral`
-  provider instance, matching the pattern used by other providers.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **Fix Google `generationConfig` parameter leakage** <br>
-  Fix a bug in the Google provider where non-generation parameters
-  (`role`, `model`, `messages`, `stream`) were leaking into the
-  `generationConfig` object alongside legitimate generation config
-  parameters such as `temperature`. Non-config parameters are now
-  filtered out before constructing `generationConfig`.
-
-* **Fix `LLM::Context#tracer=` always assigning `nil`** <br>
-  The `LLM::Context#tracer=` setter had a bug where it always assigned
-  `nil` regardless of the tracer value passed. It now correctly assigns
-  the given tracer or falls back to `LLM::Tracer::Null`.
-
-* **Fix `LLM::Provider#with_tracer(nil)` fallback** <br>
-  `LLM::Provider#with_tracer(nil)` now falls back to
-  `LLM::Tracer::Null` instead of setting a `nil` tracer directly.
-
-* **Fix `LLM::Context#repair!` dropping `Struct` returns** <br>
-  `LLM::Context#repair!` used `[*prompt]` to wrap the prompt before
-  grepping for return objects. Since `LLM::Function::Return` is a
-  `Struct`, the splat operator expanded it into its member values
-  instead of wrapping it, causing the grep to silently drop returns.
-  The fix wraps both sources in an array before flattening.
-
-### Change
-
-* **Increase default provider timeout from 60s to 180s** <br>
-  The default HTTP timeout for all providers has been increased from
-  60 to 180 seconds to better accommodate long-running requests such
-  as reasoning models and large structured outputs.
-
-* **Change Anthropic default model to `claude-opus-4-8`** <br>
-  The default Anthropic chat model has been updated from
-  `claude-sonnet-4-20250514` to `claude-opus-4-8`, reflecting the
-  latest model release from Anthropic.
-
-* **Refresh model metadata** <br>
-  Update model listings, pricing, and capabilities for Anthropic,
-  AWS Bedrock, DeepInfra, Google, and xAI. Add Mistral model data
-  to the registry.
-
-## v12.1.0
-
-Changes since `v12.0.0`.
-
-This release adds `LLM::Agent#repl` with a curses-based
-interactive read-eval-print loop. It requires the optional
-dependency `curses` and it is probably the most notable
-feature in this release.
-
-Multiple _opt-in_ tools have been added to the `llm/tools/*.rb`
-directory. They serve as examples and as general-purpose tools
-that happen to power the repository's agents.
-
-Other changes include small-ish bug fixes. <br>
-As always, see the changelog details for a thorough overview.
-
-### Add
-
-* **Add `LLM::Agent#repl`** <br>
-  Add a curses-based read-eval-print loop for `LLM::Agent` that lets
-  developers interact with an agent after it has been set up or has
-  performed a task. It is similar to `binding.irb`: once you exit,
-  you can continue with the rest of your program. It requires the
-  `curses` gem.
-
-* **Add `#tracer=` setter on Provider, Context and Agent** <br>
-  `LLM::Provider`, `LLM::Context` and `LLM::Agent` can now configure
-  the tracer after initialization via the `#tracer=` setter. It accepts
-  a subclass of `LLM::Tracer` or `nil` to disable the tracer.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Shell`** <br>
-  Add a built-in shell tool that can run a command with arguments. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/shell"` and
-  requires the `test-cmd.rb` gem.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::ReadFile`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool for reading the contents of a file, with optional
-  `start` and `stop` line offsets. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/read_file"`.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Chdir`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool for changing the current working directory. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/chdir"`.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Git`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool that can perform git actions (`log`, `diff`,
-  `show`, `commit`, `checkout`, `branch`). <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/git"` and requires the `test-cmd.rb` gem.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Rg`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool that wraps the `rg` (ripgrep) command for
-  recursively searching the current directory for patterns. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/rg"` and requires the `test-cmd.rb` gem.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::SwapText`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool that can replace an exact snippet of text in a
-  file with a new piece of text. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/swap_text"`.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Pwd`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool that returns the current working directory. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/pwd"`.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::WriteFile`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool that can write a given string to a given file
-  path. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/write_file"`.
-
-* **Add `LLM::Tool::Mkdir`** <br>
-  Add a built-in tool that can create a tree of new directories. <br>
-  It must be required explicitly with `require "llm/tools/mkdir"` and
-  requires the `test-cmd.rb` gem.
-
-### Change
-
-* **Change LlamaCpp default port (8080 => 8013)** <br>
-  The default port for the LlamaCpp provider has changed from `8080` to
-  `8013` since llamacpp itself defaults to that port.
-
-* **Change LlamaCpp default model to `nil`** <br>
-  The default model for LlamaCpp is now `nil`, letting whatever model
-  is served by the llamacpp server act as the default. Previously it
-  defaulted to `qwen3`.
-
-### Fix
-
-* **Fix `LLM::Agent.tools` Symbol resolution** <br>
-  When an agent defined tools via `tools :method_name`, the resolved
-  symbol was incorrectly forwarded as `[:method_name]` (an array) to
-  `LLM::Context`. This fix copies the same pattern used by other
-  attribute resolvers (e.g., `skills`) so a single Symbol is resolved
-  through the agent instance correctly.
-
-* **Encode strings as UTF-8 in the JSON adapter** <br>
-  The `json` gem will reject BINARY-encoded strings from version 3 and
-  beyond. The `LLM::JSONAdapter.dump` method now walks serialized data
-  and encodes every string into UTF-8, using `String#scrub` to replace
-  bytes that are not valid UTF-8.
