feat(mcp): progress notifications — live progress bar in spinner (0.4.8)

MCP notifications/progress now route to per-call onProgress handlers.
Long-running tool calls can stream incremental progress; the spinner
row renders an ASCII bar + n/total + pct when the server reports a
total, or free-form progress+message otherwise.

- McpClient.callTool(name, args, { onProgress }) mints a fresh
  _meta.progressToken and routes progress frames back. Handler is
  dropped on completion — late frames are swallowed silently.
- bridgeMcpTools({ onProgress }) pipes per-call progress through
  with the registered (prefix-applied) tool name.
- chatCommand creates a shared progressSink ref; App.tsx wires its
  setState handler through on mount.

Other server-initiated notifications (list_changed) still dropped
— no use case yet.

387 tests (+5).

+## [0.4.8] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** MCP progress notifications — long-running tool calls
+now stream incremental progress into the spinner row instead of
+sitting silent for minutes. "▸ tool\<fs_scan\> running… 42s" grows
+to "[█████░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░] 500/2000 25%  reading src/…"  as the
+server reports.
+
+### Added
+
+- **`McpClient.callTool(name, args, { onProgress })`** — attaches
+  a fresh `_meta.progressToken` per call; server-emitted
+  `notifications/progress` frames are routed to the handler until
+  the final response arrives. Handler is dropped on completion or
+  timeout — no leaks, late frames are silently swallowed.
+- **Dispatch routing for `notifications/progress`** in the client's
+  reader loop. Other server-initiated notifications are still
+  dropped (list_changed frames not implemented yet).
+- **`bridgeMcpTools({ onProgress })`** — pipes the per-call
+  callback through to bridged tools. The info object includes the
+  *registered* (prefix-applied) tool name so multi-server UIs can
+  attribute progress correctly.
+- **Progress bar in `OngoingToolRow`** — when a frame arrives with
+  `total`, renders `[███░░░░░░] n/total pct%  message`. Without
+  `total`, falls back to `progress: n  message`. Resets on each
+  new tool call so stale progress doesn't linger.
+- **Public types in `src/mcp/types.ts`**: `McpProgressHandler`,
+  `McpProgressInfo`, `ProgressNotificationParams`. Re-exported
+  from `src/index.ts` for library consumers.
+
+### Tests (+5, suite 382→387)
+
+- `tests/mcp.test.ts` (+5) — progress frames routed to onProgress
+  in order; `_meta.progressToken` omitted when no callback is
+  given; distinct token when present; late frames after resolution
+  silently swallowed; `bridgeMcpTools` forwards progress with the
+  prefixed tool name.
+
+---
+
+## [0.4.7] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** Multi-line input in the chat TUI. Paste a code block
+without it getting chopped on the first newline; compose structured
+prompts across multiple lines; still hit Enter once to send.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Multi-line prompt input** replacing the old single-line
+  `ink-text-input`. Newline-insertion paths, in order of terminal
+  reliability:
+  - `Ctrl+J` — universal (real ASCII LF), works on every terminal
+  - `Shift+Enter` — works on terminals that enable CSI-u modifier
+    reporting (iTerm2 with that setting on, WezTerm, Ghostty, etc.)
+  - `\<Enter>` — bash-style line continuation, always works as a
+    portable fallback
+  - Pasted multi-line text lands intact instead of submitting on
+    the first embedded `\r`.
+- **Visible blinking cursor** on the active line so the input box
+  looks alive even when you stop typing mid-compose.
+- **`processMultilineKey` pure reducer** in `src/cli/ui/multiline-keys.ts`.
+  Keystroke → action function that's fully unit-testable; the
+  React component is a thin wrapper. Parent-owned keys (Tab for
+  slash auto-complete, ↑/↓ for slash-nav + history, Esc for abort,
+  left/right/page arrows) are no-ops in the reducer so the buffer
+  never eats a stray control sequence when both parent and child
+  `useInput` fire on the same event.
+
+### Design notes
+
+- No mid-string insertion cursor. Edits are cursor-at-end (backspace
+  to delete, paste to insert). Matches how readline-in-raw-mode
+  feels, covers ~95% of prompt-composition cases, and skips a pile
+  of complexity (arrow-key cursor nav, selection, kill/yank) that
+  would collide with the parent's arrow-key handling for slash-nav
+  and history recall.
+- `ink-text-input` is still used by `Wizard`, `Select`, `Setup` — it
+  fits those single-line forms fine and didn't need replacing.
+
+### Tests (+18, suite 364→382)
+
+- `tests/multiline-keys.test.ts` (new) — printable input, multi-char
+  paste, Enter-submit, Shift+Enter-newline, Ctrl+J (raw LF and
+  normalized `ctrl+'j'`), bash continuation, backspace across
+  newlines, delete, tab/arrows/esc/ctrl-letter/meta all ignored,
+  empty-buffer edge cases.
+

+
+## [0.4.6] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** Slash-command UX overhaul + MCP discovery closes in
+two places. Typing `/` now pops an IntelliSense-style suggestion
+list you can walk with ↑/↓ and pick with Enter or Tab — no more
+memorizing commands or reading a cluttered footer. The footer is
+gone. `/mcp` inside chat now shows each server's tools + resources
++ prompts in one grouped view. For scripting/CI there's a new
+`reasonix mcp inspect <spec>` CLI doing the same.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Slash autocomplete popup.** When the input starts with `/` and
+  matches exist, a floating panel lists commands (name + args hint
+  + one-line summary). ↑/↓ navigate the list; Tab inserts the
+  highlighted name into the input; Enter runs it directly. Leaves
+  slash mode the moment you type a space — then ↑/↓ goes back to
+  shell-style prompt history as before. Registry lives in
+  `SLASH_COMMANDS` and gates code-mode-only entries (`/apply`,
+  `/discard`, `/undo`, `/commit`) behind the TUI's `codeMode` flag.
+- **`/mcp` is now the discovery view.** Rich output per connected
+  server: name + version + spec, tool count, resources list, prompts
+  list. Unsupported sections collapse to `(not supported)` so a
+  tools-only server still reads clean. Inspection happens once at
+  chat startup and flows through `SlashContext.mcpServers` — the
+  slash handler stays sync.
+- **`reasonix mcp inspect <spec>`**. CLI counterpart to `/mcp`, for
+  running outside chat (CI, scripting, "does this server even
+  work?"). Same spec grammar as `--mcp`; `--json` emits the full
+  report.
+- **`inspectMcpServer(client)`** public API in `src/mcp/inspect.ts`.
+  Pure function — testable against any `McpClient` instance; returns
+  an `InspectionReport` with per-section `{supported, items}` or
+  `{supported: false, reason}`. Re-exported from `src/index.ts`.
+- **`McpClient.serverInfo` + `.protocolVersion` + `.serverInstructions`**.
+  The full initialize handshake result is now exposed, not just
+  `.serverCapabilities`. Needed by any UI that wants to surface
+  "connected to X v1.2.3".
+
+### Removed
+
+- **Static command-strip footer under the input.** Took 3-4 dimmed
+  lines listing a random subset of commands; superseded by the
+  on-demand slash popup that only surfaces when the user asks for
+  it (by typing `/`).
+
+### Tests (+11, suite 353→364)
+
+- `tests/mcp-inspect.test.ts` (new, +5) — full-support server,
+  -32601 → `supported: false`, non-32601 forwarded as the section
+  reason, serverInfo/protocolVersion/instructions accessors,
+  undefined-instructions fallback.
+- `tests/slash.test.ts` (+6) — `SLASH_COMMANDS` contains every
+  handler case, `suggestSlashCommands` prefix + case + empty-string
+  behavior, code-mode gating, `/mcp` rich view renders tools +
+  resources + prompts grouped per server, `/mcp` spec-only fallback.
+
+---
+
+## [0.4.5] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** Two protocol-level completions bundled together. (1)
+DSML-hallucinated tool calls are now **recovered** (not just stripped
+from display) — when R1 emits its chat-template markup in the content
+channel instead of the proper `tool_calls` field, the repair pipeline
+parses it back into a real ToolCall and executes it. (2) The MCP
+client gains `resources/*` and `prompts/*` — the remaining method
+families needed for spec parity beyond tools.
+
+### Added
+
+- **DSML invoke parser in `scavengeToolCalls`.** Pattern A in
+  `src/repair/scavenge.ts` now recognizes `<｜DSML｜invoke name="X">…</｜DSML｜invoke>` blocks with nested `<｜DSML｜parameter name="k" string="true|false">v</｜DSML｜parameter>` children. `string="true"` → literal; `string="false"` → JSON. Both full-width `｜` and ASCII `|` variants accepted. Malformed JSON under `string="false"` falls back to a literal string so data isn't lost.
+- **Content-channel scavenge.** `ToolCallRepair.process` now takes an
+  optional third arg `content` and scans both reasoning + content for
+  leaked calls. The loop wires `assistantContent` through. This closes
+  the hole noted in the v0.4 deferred queue: before, DSML in a regular
+  turn was stripped from display but the tool never ran.
+- **MCP `resources/list` + `resources/read`** on `McpClient`. Types:
+  `McpResource`, `McpResourceContents` (text + blob shapes),
+  `ListResourcesResult`, `ReadResourceResult`. Pagination cursor
+  supported.
+- **MCP `prompts/list` + `prompts/get`** on `McpClient`. Types:
+  `McpPrompt`, `McpPromptArgument`, `McpPromptMessage`,
+  `McpPromptResourceBlock`, `ListPromptsResult`, `GetPromptResult`.
+- **Initialize capabilities** now advertise `resources` and `prompts`
+  alongside `tools`. Servers that don't implement them respond with
+  −32601 method-not-found; client surfaces that as a thrown Error.
+
+### Tests (+13, suite 340→353)
+
+- `tests/repair/scavenge.test.ts` (+5) — DSML with string + JSON
+  params, ASCII-pipe variant, allow-list skip, `string="false"`
+  malformed-JSON fallback, no double-counting via Pattern B.
+- `tests/repair/pipeline.test.ts` (+2) — content-channel DSML yields
+  scavenged call; no double-count when DSML appears in both channels.
+- `tests/mcp.test.ts` (+6) — list+read resources, method-not-found
+  on unsupported server, capabilities payload advertises all three,
+  cursor round-trip; list+get prompts with args, argument omission.
+
+---
+
+## [0.4.4] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** `/tool` slash command — inspect the full untruncated
+output of any tool call this session. The `EventLog` renderer has
+always clipped tool results at 400 chars for display; when the model
+says "I read your file, it says …", users had no way to verify that
+claim against what the tool actually returned. Now they do.
+
+### Added
+
+- **`/tool`** (no arg) — list up to 10 most recent tool calls with
+  tool name, char count, and a one-line preview. `#1` is the most
+  recent; older entries are paged behind a "… (N earlier)" hint.
+- **`/tool N`** — dump the Nth-most-recent tool result in full,
+  untruncated. Reads from an in-memory ref populated as each `tool`
+  event lands in `App.tsx`. Not persisted across process restarts
+  (resumed sessions don't rebuild the history — the tool messages
+  are still in the session log for the model's sake, but `/tool`
+  history is per-process).
+- **`SlashContext.toolHistory` callback** — the TUI passes
+  `() => toolHistoryRef.current`; pure `handleSlash` tests stub
+  an array directly. Keeps `slash.ts` stateless.
+
+### Tests (+8, suite 332→340)
+
+- `tests/slash.test.ts` (+8) — empty-history message, list ordering
+  (most recent first), `/tool 1` dumps full content, `/tool 2`
+  reaches one back, out-of-bounds message, non-numeric → usage,
+  list pagination at 15 entries, `/help` mentions `/tool`.
+
+---
+
+## [0.4.3] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** Seven more UX improvements on top of 0.4.2. Layered in
+after live `reasonix code` sessions surfaced pain points: R1 fake
+tool-call hallucinations leaking into forced summaries, no quick
+retry, /status too thin, tool errors blending in, no prompt history,
+no one-key pending-edit confirmation, and — critically — Esc
+blocking for 30-90s on a reasoner call the user never asked for.
+
+### Added
+
+- **`/retry` slash command.** Truncates the log back to just before
+  your last user message, then re-submits so the model runs a fresh
+  turn from a clean slate. Persists the truncation to the session
+  file. `SlashResult` grows a `resubmit?: string` field the TUI
+  honors after displaying `info`.
+- **`/status` is now a real situation-report.** Labeled table:
+  model, harvest/branch/stream flags, last-turn context usage
+  against the window (`42k/131k (32%)`), MCP server + tool counts,
+  session name + log length + resumed-count, pending edit count.
+- **Prompt history with ↑/↓.** Shell-style recall. Lives in an
+  `App.tsx` ref; cursor −1 = live input, 0+ walks back. Process-
+  scoped — no cross-run persistence.
+- **Y/N fast-path for pending edits.** When pending count > 0,
+  `y` + Enter = `/apply`, `n` + Enter = `/discard`. Doesn't
+  interfere otherwise. Preview message ends with `(or y / n)`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Tool errors render red + ✗**, not yellow + →. Tool results
+  prefixed `ERROR:` (from `flattenMcpResult` on `isError`) now
+  visually distinguish from success. A failure needs different
+  attention than a directory listing.
+- **Esc abort no longer forces another API call.** Previously:
+  Esc → `warning: aborted at iter N/M — forcing summary` → another
+  full reasoner call that took 30-90s → done. Users reported the
+  wait was the opposite of "cancel." Now: Esc → quick warning →
+  synthetic `assistant_final` ("no summary produced — ask again
+  or `/retry` when ready") → done. Takes milliseconds. Prior tool
+  output stays in the log so a follow-up question hits the warm
+  prefix cache. Budget / context-guard still call `forceSummary`
+  because there the user didn't choose to stop; we did.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Forced-summary path no longer leaks DSML tool-call markup as
+  prose.** Passing `tools: undefined` wasn't enough — R1 primed
+  for tool use still emitted `<｜DSML｜function_calls>…
+  </｜DSML｜function_calls>` as plain text. Two layers: (1) append
+  an explicit user-role instruction at the end of the forced-summary
+  message list ("summarize in plain prose, do NOT emit any tool
+  calls or function-call markup"); (2) post-hoc strip known
+  envelopes (DSML full-width, DSML ASCII, Anthropic
+  `<function_calls>`, truncated un-closed DSML openers) from the
+  response. Exported as `stripHallucinatedToolMarkup`. Fallback
+  message when stripping leaves nothing points at `/retry` and
+  `/think`.
+
+### Tests (+13, suite 319→332)
+
+- `tests/slash.test.ts` (+8) — `/think` empty/populated/help,
+  `/retry` happy path + empty-log + help listing, `/status` new
+  format + pending-edit suppression at count 0.
+- `tests/loop-error.test.ts` (+5) — `stripHallucinatedToolMarkup`
+  live R1 DSML shape, Anthropic-style, truncated un-closed opener,
+  plain prose passthrough, all-markup edge case.
+- `tests/loop.test.ts` — abort test rewritten to confirm no extra
+  API call is made (previously asserted a "partial findings"
+  summary from the never-needed follow-up).
+
+---
+
+## [0.4.2] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** Three small but visible UX improvements from a real
+session: tool-call spinner now shows elapsed time + meaningful args
+(not raw JSON), reasoning preview shows the *tail* instead of the
+head (where the decision actually lives), and a `/think` slash
+command dumps the full R1 reasoning for the most recent turn.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Tool-running row surfaces elapsed seconds + per-tool argument
+  summary.** Instead of `⠋ tool<filesystem_edit_file> running… 
+  {"path":"F:\\testtest\\index.html","edits":[…]}`, you now see:
+    ```
+    ⠋ tool<filesystem_edit_file> running… 3s
+      path: F:\testtest\index.html (2 edits)
+    ```
+  Per-tool summarizers for `read_file`, `write_file`, `edit_file`,
+  `list_directory`, `directory_tree`, `search_files`, `move_file`,
+  `get_file_info`. Matches on suffix (`_read_file`) so namespaced
+  servers (`filesystem_read_file`) and anonymous servers both work.
+  Unknown tools fall back to a truncated raw-JSON preview — better
+  than nothing.
+- **Reasoning preview shows the tail, not the head.** R1 opens every
+  turn with the same "let me look at the structure…" scaffolding, so
+  previously the `↳ thinking: …` line repeated across turns and hid
+  the real content in `(+N chars)`. Now the preview window shows the
+  last ~260 chars — which is where the model actually decides what
+  to do next. Users reported the head-only preview made R1 turns
+  look identical; this fixes the underlying information-hiding bug.
+
+### Added
+
+- **`/think` slash command.** Dumps the full raw reasoning text from
+  the most recent turn (read from `loop.scratch.reasoning`). Intended
+  for when the 260-char tail isn't enough and you want to see R1's
+  actual chain. Reports a helpful message if no reasoning is cached
+  (e.g. the current model is `deepseek-chat`, which doesn't produce
+  `reasoning_content`). Also listed as an alias `/reasoning`.
+- **`/retry` slash command.** Truncates the log back to just before
+  your last user message, then re-submits it so the model runs a
+  fresh turn from a clean slate. Persists the truncation to the
+  session file so reload doesn't rehydrate the stale exchange.
+  Useful to resample R1 when the first try was off, without typing
+  the question again. `SlashResult` grows a `resubmit?: string` field
+  the TUI honors after displaying the result's `info` line.
+- **`/status` is now a real situation-report.** Previously it was
+  four key=value pairs on one line; now it's a labeled table
+  covering model, harvest/branch/stream flags, last turn's context
+  usage against the window (`42k/131k (32%)`), MCP server + tool
+  counts, session name + log length + resumed-count, and pending
+  edit count in code mode. One command, whole state.
+- **Prompt history with ↑/↓.** Shell-style recall of previously
+  submitted prompts. Lives in a ref in `App.tsx`; ↑ walks back, ↓
+  walks forward (empty input at cursor=-1). Scoped to the current
+  session process — no cross-launch persistence. Fast path for
+  iterating on the same question with small tweaks.
+- **Y/N fast-path for pending edits.** When edit blocks are waiting
+  for `/apply` or `/discard`, typing just `y` or `n` + Enter maps
+  to those commands. Doesn't interfere with normal input because
+  the branch only triggers when pending count > 0. Preview line
+  now ends with `(or y) … (or n)` so users know the shortcut exists.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Tool-running row surfaces elapsed seconds + per-tool argument
+  summary.** Instead of `⠋ tool<filesystem_edit_file> running…
+  {"path":"F:\\testtest\\index.html","edits":[…]}`, you now see:
+    ```
+    ⠋ tool<filesystem_edit_file> running… 3s
+      path: F:\testtest\index.html (2 edits)
+    ```
+  Per-tool summarizers for `read_file`, `write_file`, `edit_file`,
+  `list_directory`, `directory_tree`, `search_files`, `move_file`,
+  `get_file_info`. Matches on suffix (`_read_file`) so namespaced
+  servers (`filesystem_read_file`) and anonymous servers both work.
+  Unknown tools fall back to a truncated raw-JSON preview — better
+  than nothing.
+- **Reasoning preview shows the tail, not the head.** R1 opens every
+  turn with the same "let me look at the structure…" scaffolding, so
+  previously the `↳ thinking: …` line repeated across turns and hid
+  the real content in `(+N chars)`. Now the preview window shows the
+  last ~260 chars — which is where the model actually decides what
+  to do next. Users reported the head-only preview made R1 turns
+  look identical; this fixes the underlying information-hiding bug.
+- **Tool errors render red, not yellow.** Tool results whose content
+  starts with `ERROR:` (the prefix `flattenMcpResult` adds when the
+  server reports `isError: true`) now show as a red `tool<X>  ✗`
+  header + red body, instead of the same yellow `→` as successful
+  results. A failure needs different attention than "here's your
+  directory listing."
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Forced-summary no longer leaks DSML tool-call markup as prose.**
+  When the loop forces a no-tools summary (Esc / budget /
+  context-guard), passing `tools: undefined` turned out not to be
+  enough — R1 primed for tool use would still emit
+  `<｜DSML｜function_calls>…</｜DSML｜function_calls>` as plain text,
+  which rendered verbatim in the TUI. Fix is two layers:
+    1. Inject an explicit user-role instruction at the end of the
+       forced-summary message list ("summarize in plain prose, do
+       NOT emit any tool calls or function-call markup").
+    2. Post-hoc strip known hallucinated envelopes (DSML full-width,
+       DSML ASCII, Anthropic-style `<function_calls>`, and
+       truncated un-closed DSML openers) from the model's response
+       before yielding. Exported as `stripHallucinatedToolMarkup(s)`
+       so library callers building their own UIs can apply the same
+       cleanup.
+  When stripping leaves nothing behind, the loop emits a clear
+  fallback message pointing at `/retry` and `/think` rather than
+  showing an empty assistant turn.
+
+### Tests (+13, suite 319→332)
+
+- `tests/slash.test.ts` (+8) — `/think`, `/retry` happy path +
+  empty-log path + help listing, `/status` new format with rich
+  rows, `/status` pending-edit suppression at count 0.
+- `tests/loop-error.test.ts` (+5) — `stripHallucinatedToolMarkup`
+  against the live R1 DSML shape, Anthropic-style
+  `<function_calls>`, truncated unpaired DSML opener, plain prose
+  passthrough, and the all-markup-no-prose edge case.
+

+
+## [0.4.1] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** `reasonix code` grows `/undo`, `/commit`, `.gitignore`
+awareness — and, **critically, stops auto-writing edits to disk.** A
+real-session bug ("I asked to analyze the project, it silently edited
+a file") exposed that v0.4.0's auto-apply was the wrong default.
+Edits now sit as **pending** until the user says `/apply`. This
+release also replaces the fixed iter-count budget with a
+token-context guard, which you were right to call out as the correct
+abstraction from the start.
+
+### Fixed (behavior change for code-mode users)
+
+- **Edits are now gated behind `/apply`.** Each assistant turn's
+  SEARCH/REPLACE blocks are parsed and shown as a preview line
+  (`▸ N pending edit block(s) — /apply to commit, /discard to drop`)
+  with per-block `path  (-N +M lines)`. Nothing touches disk without
+  explicit `/apply`. Pending state survives across user messages —
+  you can keep chatting and land the batch later. Aider's model, which
+  we should have picked from the start.
+- **Forced-summary events are tagged `forcedSummary: true` on
+  `LoopEvent`.** The code-mode edit applier ignores tagged events
+  entirely. Without this, a budget / abort / context-guard summary
+  could dump SEARCH/REPLACE blocks into output and silently turn
+  "analysis" into "edit". This was the root-cause bug for the
+  real-session report.
+- **Token-context guard replaces iter count as the primary stop.**
+  After every model response, if `promptTokens / contextWindow > 0.8`
+  the loop emits a yellow warning, skips executing the tool calls the
+  model just proposed, and diverts to the no-tools summary path
+  (`reason: "context-guard"`). Iter cap bumped 24 → 64 as a
+  last-resort backstop — the real constraint is the 131k-token
+  window, not a magic iteration count.
+- **Stray `EditSummary` / `summarizeEdit` reverted** from
+  `src/code/edit-blocks.ts`. v0.4.0's auto-apply let the model write
+  it during a failed forced-summary run. Nothing referenced it.
+  Removed.
+- **SEARCH/REPLACE blocks render as a real diff, not mangled prose.**
+  Previously the Markdown renderer fed SEARCH/REPLACE content through
+  the paragraph path — which joined lines with spaces and let the
+  inline bold/italic regex eat `*` characters inside JSDoc `/** … */`
+  comments. Output looked like `/** Edit landed on disk. /` with
+  trailing `*` consumed and newlines flattened. Now the parser
+  recognizes the `<filename>` / `<<<<<<< SEARCH` / `=======` /
+  `>>>>>>> REPLACE` envelope and emits a dedicated `edit-block` block
+  kind, rendered as `- ` / `+ ` diff rows with the filename on top
+  and (new file) tagged for empty-SEARCH creations. No inline
+  markdown inside — content is shown verbatim.
+- **"Reasoning before it speaks" UX no longer looks frozen.** Under
+  `deepseek-reasoner`, R1 streams `reasoning_content` first and
+  `content` only after — often 20-90 seconds of silence from the
+  user's perspective. The streaming preview used to show
+  `(waiting for first token…)` during that window, making the app
+  look hung. Now:
+    - A cyan braille-spinner pulse ticks at 500 ms so the heartbeat
+      is visible regardless of stream bursts.
+    - Label switches `streaming` → `reasoning` while body is empty.
+    - The "waiting" line is replaced with an explicit
+      `R1 is thinking before it speaks — body text starts when
+      reasoning completes (typically 20-90s)` so the user knows to
+      wait, not to bail.
+- **Tool calls now show a spinner while dispatching.** The loop
+  gains a new `tool_start` event yielded *before* `await
+  tools.dispatch(...)`, separate from the existing `tool` event
+  yielded with the result. The TUI renders a
+  `⠋ tool<filesystem_edit_file> running…` row (with a short args
+  preview) while the Promise is pending. Without this, a multi-KB
+  edit could sit for a full second with no visual feedback — the
+  streaming block was already cleared on `assistant_final` and the
+  input was disabled. Transcripts still only record the `tool`
+  result event (not `tool_start`), so replay/diff output is
+  unchanged.
+
+### Added (code mode)
+
+- **`/apply`** — commits pending edit blocks, snapshots for `/undo`,
+  per-block status.
+- **`/discard`** — forgets pending edits without writing.
+- **`/undo`** — roll back the *last applied* edit batch. Restores
+  files to their pre-`/apply` content, deletes any file the batch had
+  just created. One level of history for now, Aider-style.
+- **`/commit "msg"`** — `git add -A && git commit -m "msg"` inside
+  the code-mode rootDir. Surfaces git's stderr on failure (hooks,
+  nothing staged, detached HEAD, etc.).
+- **.gitignore awareness** — `reasonix code` reads the project's
+  `.gitignore` on launch and injects it into the system prompt as
+  "don't traverse or edit these paths unless asked". Hard-coded
+  baseline ignores (`node_modules`, `dist`, `.git`, `.venv`, etc.) are
+  also baked into the base prompt for projects without a `.gitignore`.
+  Stops the model wasting 5 tool calls listing `node_modules`.
+
+### Tightened
+
+- **`CODE_SYSTEM_PROMPT` gains a "when to edit vs. when to explore"
+  section.** Explicitly tells the model: only propose edits when the
+  user asks to change / fix / add / remove / refactor. For analyze /
+  explain / describe, stay read-only. Belt-and-braces with the
+  `/apply` gate below.
+
+### Tests (+35, suite 292→318)
+
+- `tests/edit-blocks.test.ts` (+5) — `snapshotBeforeEdits` +
+  `restoreSnapshots` round-trip: restore modified file, delete
+  newly-created file on undo, de-dup per path in batches, refuse
+  path-escape in snapshots.
+- `tests/code-prompt.test.ts` (+4 new file) — `.gitignore` injection:
+  no-file case, happy path, truncation over 2KB, base prompt still
+  names the built-in ignores.
+- `tests/slash.test.ts` (+13) — `/apply`, `/discard`, `/undo`,
+  `/commit`: inside vs. outside code mode, usage hint on empty
+  message, double-quote stripping, help listing all of them.
+- `tests/loop.test.ts` (+1) — context-guard warning + forced-summary
+  flag when prompt tokens exceed 80% of the window.
+- `tests/markdown.test.ts` (+5) — `parseBlocks` extracts SEARCH/
+  REPLACE into `edit-block` blocks, preserves multi-line JSDoc
+  verbatim, handles new-file (empty SEARCH), rejects stray markers
+  without close, multi-block responses interleaved with prose.
+- `tests/loop.test.ts` (+1) — `tool_start` precedes `tool` for each
+  dispatch, so UI consumers can pair them.
+
+### Notes
+
+- If you relied on 0.4.0's auto-apply behavior in scripts, that's
+  gone. For automation, call `applyEditBlocks` directly from the
+  library — the CLI TUI is for interactive use where the new gate
+  is correct.
+
+---
+
+## [0.4.0] — 2026-04-21
+
+**Headline:** `reasonix code` — a new subcommand that turns Reasonix
+into a coding assistant. Auto-bridges the filesystem MCP at your
+working directory, teaches the model to emit Aider-style
+SEARCH/REPLACE blocks, applies them to disk after each turn. The
+"cheap Claude Code" pitch becomes real.
+
+### Added
+
+- **`npx reasonix code [dir]`** — opinionated wrapper around chat:
+  - Filesystem MCP auto-bridged at `[dir]` (default CWD). No wizard,
+    no config merge. Out-of-box ready.
+  - Code-specialized system prompt that teaches SEARCH/REPLACE.
+  - Reasoner + harvest on by default (coding tasks repay R1 thinking).
+  - Per-directory session name (`code-<basename>`) so different
+    projects don't share history.
+- **SEARCH/REPLACE edit blocks** (`src/code/edit-blocks.ts`). The
+  model emits:
+    ```
+    path/to/file.ts
+    <<<<<<< SEARCH
+    (exact existing lines)
+    =======
+    (replacement)
+    >>>>>>> REPLACE
+    ```
+  Reasonix parses them from `assistant_final`, applies them under
+  the root dir, reports each result (`✓ applied`, `✓ created`,
+  `✗ not-found`, `✗ path-escape`, …) as an info line in the TUI.
+  Empty SEARCH creates a new file (Aider convention). SEARCH must
+  match byte-for-byte; we never fuzzy-match, because a silently wrong
+  edit is worse than a loud rejection.
+- **New public API** on the library: `parseEditBlocks`,
+  `applyEditBlock`, `applyEditBlocks`, `CODE_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, and the
+  types `EditBlock` / `ApplyResult` / `ApplyStatus`. Anyone building
+  their own code-assistant UX can compose from these.
+- **`ChatOptions.codeMode`** — opt-in flag to enable edit-block
+  processing inside the existing TUI event loop. Plain `reasonix chat`
+  leaves it off.
+
+### Why 0.4.0 (minor, not patch)
+
+This is a new user-facing primitive, not a bug fix or UX polish. The
+library exports grow; the `ChatOptions` interface gains a field.
+Nothing breaks for existing 0.3.x users — `reasonix chat` behaves
+exactly as before when `codeMode` is absent. But the SemVer convention
+is: additive new surface = minor bump.
+
+### Tests (+13, suite 279→292)
+
+- `tests/edit-blocks.test.ts` (+13 new file). `parseEditBlocks`
+  round-trips single + multi + multi-line + empty-SEARCH blocks, and
+  ignores stray 7-char runs in arbitrary prose. `applyEditBlock`
+  covers happy path, new-file creation, not-found rejection,
+  file-missing, path-escape defense, first-occurrence semantics.
+  Batch `applyEditBlocks` confirms failures don't cascade.
+
+### Notes
+
+- v1 scope is deliberately narrow: no `/commit`, no `/undo`, no
+  .gitignore filtering, no diff preview. The user's own `git diff` +
+  `git checkout` is the review + undo surface — and we run inside a
+  git repo by convention.
+- The ctx gauge + Esc + /compact safety net from 0.3.1/0.3.2 applies
+  equally to code mode. Exploring a large repo now has visible
+  progress and a hard off-switch.

+### Code mode — `npx reasonix code`
+
+A thin opinionated layer on top of chat: filesystem MCP bridged at
+`cwd`, coding system prompt, reasoner preset, per-directory session.
+The model proposes edits as **SEARCH/REPLACE blocks**:
+
+```
+src/foo.ts
+<<<<<<< SEARCH
+const x = 1;
+=======
+const x = 2;
+>>>>>>> REPLACE
+```
+
+Reasonix parses them out of each turn, applies them to disk, reports
+`✓ applied src/foo.ts` in the TUI. SEARCH must match byte-for-byte;
+we never fuzzy-match (silent wrong edits are worse than loud
+rejections). Run `git diff` to review, `git checkout .` to undo.
+
+```bash
+cd my-project
+npx reasonix code           # default: cwd, reasoner, per-dir session
+npx reasonix code src/      # scope the filesystem sandbox tighter
+npx reasonix code --no-session   # ephemeral
+```
+
+First-run sandbox: because code mode uses the filesystem MCP from
+`@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem`, the model can only read
+and write inside the directory you pointed at. It literally can't
+touch files above that root.

+Only propose edits when the user explicitly asks you to change, fix, add, remove, refactor, or write something. Do NOT propose edits when the user asks you to:
+- analyze, read, explore, describe, or summarize a project
+- explain how something works
+- answer a question about the code
+
+In those cases, use tools to gather what you need, then reply in prose. No SEARCH/REPLACE blocks, no file changes. If you're unsure what the user wants, ask.
+
+When you do propose edits, the user will review them and decide whether to \`/apply\` or \`/discard\`. Don't assume they'll accept — write as if each edit will be audited, because it will.
+
+# Editing files
+
+When you've been asked to change a file, output one or more SEARCH/REPLACE blocks in this exact format:
+
+path/to/file.ext
+<<<<<<< SEARCH
+exact existing lines from the file, including whitespace
+=======
+the new lines
+>>>>>>> REPLACE
+
+Rules:
+- Always read_file first so your SEARCH matches byte-for-byte. If it doesn't match, the edit is rejected and you'll have to retry with the exact current content.
+- One edit per block. Multiple blocks in one response are fine.
+- To create a new file, leave SEARCH empty:
+    path/to/new.ts
+    <<<<<<< SEARCH
+    =======
+    (whole file content here)
+    >>>>>>> REPLACE
+- Do NOT use write_file to change existing files — the user reviews your edits as SEARCH/REPLACE. write_file is only for files you explicitly want to overwrite wholesale (rare).
+- Paths are relative to the working directory. Don't use absolute paths.
+
+# Exploration
+
+- Avoid listing or reading inside these common dependency / build directories unless the user explicitly asks about them: node_modules, dist, build, out, .next, .nuxt, .svelte-kit, .git, .venv, venv, __pycache__, target, coverage, .turbo, .cache. They're expensive and usually irrelevant.
+- Prefer search_files / grep over list_directory when you know roughly what you're looking for — it saves context and avoids enumerating huge trees.
+
+# Style
+
+- Show edits; don't narrate them in prose. "Here's the fix:" is enough.
+- One short paragraph explaining *why*, then the blocks.
+- If you need to explore first (list / grep / read), do it with tool calls before writing any prose — silence while exploring is fine.
