pawan-core v0.4.8

Core library for the Pawan CLI coding agent. Contains the agent engine, tool system, configuration, and healing/recovery logic.

What's New in v0.4.8

Shell-like command history navigation — Up/down arrow keys navigate through command history, matching bash/zsh/Claude Code/OMP behavior
History persistence — Commands saved to history (excluding slash commands), accessible across sessions

Redesigned keyboard shortcuts — Ctrl+C always clears input, Ctrl+Q quits for cleaner separation of concerns

Redesigned Ctrl+C behavior — Clears input when non-empty, quits when empty (matching bash/zsh pattern)

Session tags UI — Visual green tags in status bar, manage via /tag command
Fuzzy session search — Fuzzy matching with [FUZZY] indicator in session browser
NVIDIA NIM catalog — /models command to browse available NIM models
Enhanced /diff — --cached flag support and colorized diff output
Improved /load and /resume — Opens session browser when called without arguments
Enhanced scrolling — PageUp/PageDown/Home/End keys and mouse wheel support in all popups (command palette, slash menu, session browser)
Secure credential storage — API keys stored in OS-native credential store (Keychain/Credential Manager/libsecret)
Test stability — All 722 library tests and 59 integration tests now pass consistently

Agent Engine — Multi-turn conversation with LLM backends (NVIDIA NIM, Ollama, OpenAI, MLX)
Tool System — 34 tools in 3 tiers (Core/Standard/Extended) with tiered visibility
Configuration — Pluggable config resolution via aegis or local files
Healing — Auto-recovery from tool failures, context overflow, model errors
Thinking Budget — Per-model thinking mode dispatch (Qwen, Gemma, Mistral, DeepSeek)
Session Management — Save, load, and resume conversation sessions
Model Selection — Dynamic model switching with search and filtering

use pawan_core::{Agent, Config};

let config = Config::load()?;
let agent = Agent::new(config).await?;

This crate is the foundation — use pawan (the CLI binary) for the full experience.
