…indfold-ai#595) The OMP extension re-synchronised the active task context on every `context` event and rewrote the persisted copy in place (or, when none was persisted, inserted a fresh one). Because `context` results are never persisted, every request whose task files had changed replaced a message near the head of the history, so the provider prompt cache lost everything after that slot: a `task.py create`, a prd.md edit and a `task.py add-context` each cost a full ~150k-token re-read in a real session, with cache reads falling back to the same ~37k prefix each time. Mirror the Pi extension instead: - The task context is appended to `event.systemPrompt` on the first `before_agent_start` for a context key + project root and memoized for the life of the process, so the system prompt stays byte-identical and survives compaction. Earlier handlers' segments are never replaced. - Task file changes are detected once per user turn by content, not mtime, and delivered as one persisted `trellis-task-context-update` message per turn. Each file section degrades in order: unified diff against the last text the model saw, full block, `[omitted]` notice. A full block is used when there is no baseline, after a compaction (`stale`), when the diff stack or cumulative diff bytes exceed their caps, or when the diff would not be smaller than the block. Files the model never received (`unseen`, omitted by the budget) are re-sent in full on the next update pass. - The `context` handler no longer touches task context at all; it only keeps the skip-turn cleanup and the post-compaction breadcrumb safety net. - A late-bound task is appended in full once; unbinding appends a short status message. Sub-agents keep their single session_start injection. `.trellis/config.yaml` gains `context_injection.diff_max_bytes` (default 8192) and `diff_max_stack` (default 3). The line diff is a self-contained Myers implementation with unified output. Supersedes the stable-slot approach from the first revision of this PR: a fixed slot keeps the prefix stable only until the task files change. Fixes mindfold-ai#595

Oh My Pi @oh-my-pi/pi-coding-agent before_agent_start event systemPrompt ExtensionAPI type
💡 Result:
In the @oh-my-pi/pi-coding-agent ecosystem, the before_agent_start event is a lifecycle hook that triggers after a user submits a prompt but before the agent loop begins [1][2][3]. It is primarily used to inject persistent messages into the session or to dynamically modify the system prompt for a specific turn [4][5][6]. Event Details and Types: - Event Name: before_agent_start [1][7] - Event Payload (BeforeAgentStartEvent): Includes the user's prompt (string), attached images (optional), and the current system prompt [1][8][5]. - Handler Return Type (BeforeAgentStartEventResult): Handlers can return an object containing optional message (CustomMessagePayload) and systemPrompt (string or array of strings) fields [1][8][3]. Behavior and Chaining: - System Prompt Modification: The system prompt is chained across multiple extensions. Each handler receives the modified prompt from previous handlers, allowing successive extensions to append to or replace the instructions [8][5][9]. - Message Injection: If a handler returns a message, it is persisted to the session and becomes visible in the Terminal User Interface (TUI) [1][10]. If multiple handlers return messages, they are collected and injected [8]. Implementation Example: You can register a handler using the ExtensionAPI as follows [11][10]: pi.on("before_agent_start", async (event, ctx) => { return { message: { customType: "my-extension", content: "Additional context for the LLM", display: true, }, systemPrompt: event.systemPrompt + "\n\nExtra instructions for this turn...", }; }); For detailed type definitions, refer to the @oh-my-pi/pi-coding-agent package's internal extensibility types [1][7].

Append the task block to the string-valued system prompt. @oh-my-pi/pi-coding-agent provides event.systemPrompt as a string. In the main-session handler, Array.isArray(basePrompt) is therefore false, so the returned object omits the task block. Apply the same fix to both extension copies at line 1533.

The signature fast path strands files marked unseen. planTaskContextUpdate marks a budget-dropped file { stale: true, unseen: true } and still stores current.signature. The unseen flag is read only inside planTaskContextUpdate, which this early return skips whenever the file did not change again on disk. The documented recovery in TaskFileBaseline.unseen therefore never runs until an unrelated change moves the signature. The model did receive the required_read notice, so the impact is bounded.

Problem
The OMP extension refreshes the active task context on every
contextevent (since #541) and rewrites the persistedtrellis-task-contextin place, or inserts one when none was persisted.contextresults are never persisted, so whenever the task files change the request replaces a message near the head of the history and the provider prompt cache loses everything after it.Measured on 18.1.9 with the first revision of this PR (stable slot after the session context) in a real session:
cacheReadtask.py create(late bind)prd.mdtask.py add-contextWrites to
design.md/implement.md(not part of the context signature) did not reset the cache, which pins the cause to the in-place refresh. A fixed slot only keeps the prefix stable until the task files change; during planning they change every turn. 0.6.15 never had the problem because it injected once atsession_startand never rewrote history.Fix
