Pi coding agent released version 0.86.0, a major update: mid-conversation system messages, dynamic tools on supported models without losing the KV cache, cache warming on Anthropic, faster -r/-c session resume, and a new /bug command. Author mitsuhiko warns the mid-conversation system messages could cause regressions since few run from main, and asks users to report issues.
