agnostic-ai v0.94.0: start, rename and delete chats from one place

Agnostic-ai released v0.94.0, which makes `validate` fail a hook scoped with `targets:` to a tool that does not know its event, where `sync` previously dropped it silently, and adds `agnostic-ai conversations start` to open a linked chat in a new terminal tab from inside Claude Code, Codex or `cursor-agent`. The release also lets users permanently delete an archived Claude Code chat from the companion, removes its transcripts, tool output and backups, and stops `sync` with error AAI-102 when `outputs.<target>.rules-file` would overwrite another tool's rules. Teams sharing a project must upgrade every copy of agnostic-ai that syncs it, because `sync`, `doctor --fix` and `revert` now stop on sync state written by a newer release.

Highlights - Breaking: validate fails a hook scoped with targets: to a tool that does not know its event. sync used to drop it silently. See hook fields https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/spec-format/hook-reference/ fields . - sync no longer loses a tool's rules because of outputs.<target .rules-file , and stops with AAI-102 https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/errors/ aai-102-targets-emit-to-the-same-output-path where it would. - Delete an archived Claude Code chat for good from the companion https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/cli-reference/companion/ delete-an-archived-chat . - agnostic-ai conversations start https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/cli-reference/conversations/ conversations-start opens a linked chat in a new terminal tab, from inside Claude Code, Codex or cursor-agent . - The companion and the web interface show the agent's latest reply or question under each chat's title. Upgrading from v0.93.0 - Hooks scoped with targets: : run agnostic-ai validate . For each hook it rejects, use that tool's own event name, or set the event under x-<target , such as x-augment: {event: PromptSubmit} . See hook fields https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/spec-format/hook-reference/ fields . - Teams that share a project: upgrade every copy of agnostic-ai that syncs it. sync , doctor --fix and revert now stop on sync state written by a newer release. Then follow the upgrade page https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/cli-reference/upgrades/ upgrade . What changed Start a linked chat Run agnostic-ai conversations start inside Claude Code, Codex or cursor-agent to open a new chat in a new tab of the same folder, with a short brief as its first prompt. The new chat shows indented under the one it came from, in both the web interface and the companion. Turn on the side-conversation built-in to give the agent a skill that says when to start one and how to write the brief. See side conversations https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/side-conversation/ . The new wrap-up built-in adds a skill that ends a session with what changed, what is still open, and a note to share. See session wrap-ups https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/wrap-up/ . Keep track of each chat - Each local Claude Code, Codex and Cursor chat shows the agent's question or last message under its title. Titles show what you typed, without the tags tools add. A Claude Code session with Remote Control on shows as one row, marked Shared. - Rename a chat from its pencil button, with F2 or from the right-click menu, where you can also mark it as read. Mark all as read clears every unread or waiting chat. - Hide takes the companion off the screen until the shortcut or a waiting chat brings it back. upgrade also updates an installed companion. See upgrade the companion https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/cli-reference/companion/ upgrade-the-companion . Clean up finished chats Delete an archived Claude Code chat from the companion's right-click menu. This removes its transcripts, tool output and backups. A chat that went quiet on its own can be deleted too, unless it was written to since you last looked. Other tools say why their chats cannot be deleted. See delete an archived chat https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/cli-reference/companion/ delete-an-archived-chat . Sync without losing files - sync ignores rules-file on a tool that writes no merged rules file, and stops with AAI-102 when the setting would overwrite another tool's rules. See entry-point files https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/configuration/ entry-point-files . - sync and status also stop when an output sits on a backup file that sync saved, or when two outputs differ only in letter case, such as agents.md and AGENTS.md . - revert --force no longer deletes a shared rules file it just restored. See the release notes https://github.com/Chemaclass/agnostic-ai/releases/tag/v0.94.0 for the remaining fixes, including Augment hook payloads, Qwen hook timeouts and Copilot effort values. What changed in the targets - Augment: sync writes hooks with args and the PromptSubmit and Notification events, and skips a hook on an event Auggie never fires, with a note. agnostic-ai hook run sends Auggie 1.x tool names and expands ${VAR:-default} in a hook's command the way Auggie does. Settings permissions.ask , model and effort reach Auggie's settings. See Augment hooks https://agnostic-ai.org/docs/targets/augment/ hooks . - Cursor: cursor-agent chats are listed with their folder even without an editor chat index, and a running one opens its terminal. conversations start --tool cursor starts a cursor-agent chat; Cursor editor chats are refused. These bullets describe agnostic-ai changes checked against its own tests and reference pages on November 12, 2026; no new vendor release was audited and native behavior was not run.
