Since 0.86 the prompt and tool declarations live in transcript system
messages, so a context handler that filters or slices messages could drop
them. After extension-driven compaction this sent requests without built-in
tools and made Codex emit raw tool-call text.
context handlers now see the conversation only. An unchanged list keeps the
transcript as is; a changed list gets the replayed prompt sections and tool
declarations as one leading system message. Handler-added system messages
are kept after it.
Add context_with_system, which runs after every context handler on the full
transcript and sends its result verbatim, for extensions that need to edit
system messages per request. Dropping the leading system message is reported
as an extension error.

Make SessionManager projections authoritative for provider requests, add append-only context edits and actionable turn boundaries, and preserve existing queue scheduling during continuation and recovery.
3349e1db1 (#9618) limited OSC 52 to SSH/mosh so a desktop terminal that ignores
it no longer reports a false success. That also disabled the only clipboard
route for containers and WSL without WSLg, which have no display to gate on.
Emit OSC 52 again on display-less Linux. On WSL, write the Windows clipboard
through PowerShell (verified, no OSC 52 size cap), preferring OSC 52 in
Windows Terminal where it is known to work. Desktop sessions with a display
still report the failure.

Fall back to the latest safe assistant boundary when trailing tool results exceed the retained-token budget, allowing older history to compact before the next provider request.
Closes#9740
Remove SystemMessage.replace. A prompt forced from before_agent_start is a rendering
of the current prompt for the run, not conversation state: persisting it as a
replacing system message wrote the full prompt and tool list on every change,
lost the structured sections while forced, and disabled mid-conversation system
messages for the rest of the session once a replacement existed.
The transcript now always records section patches. AgentSession wraps
transformContext and, when a forced prompt is active, collapses the system
messages into one head carrying the forced text and the current tools. Providers
receive the same request as before; nothing is persisted and the projection ends
with the run.
The evals harness validated the without_docs variant from the transcript, which
relied on the persisted replacement. Its transform extension now records the
prompt it forced and validates that instead.
Map signal termination to conventional nonzero exit codes and reject null exit codes from custom shell operations while preserving partial output.
fixes#9577
Add SystemMessage.replace: replaying a system message with the flag discards the
accumulated prompt content, sections, and tools before applying it, and providers
collapse the transcript into one leading system message whenever a later message
replaces it.
A forced prompt from before_agent_start is opaque, so it is persisted as a replace
message holding the text in content with no sections (the agent loop fills in the
full tool set). Leaving force mode persists another replace message with the
structured sections. Previously the forced prompt became a preamble section patch,
so models with native mid-conversation system messages kept the original prompt
as their leading system prompt and received the forced one as a later update.
* fix(coding-agent): fail closed on user bash hook errors
Prevent failed execution-routing hooks from falling back to the local shell.

This change makes system prompt text and tool changes part of the transcript rather than silently rewriting its starting conditions. This lets Pi record when instructions changed or tools became available, restore that state after resuming or navigating branches, and preserve cached prompt prefixes where the upstream supports it.
Follow-up to e687434a6.
Recheck compaction state after navigation dialogs and response cancellation before replacing status indicators or escape handlers. Document navigation conflicts and add regression coverage.
