v0.17.0

What's Changed

• feat: message truncation by @adi-wan-askui in #145

🚀 Features

• Message Truncation & Prompt Caching: Added intelligent message truncation and prompt caching capabilities (about 5 minutes) to optimize token usage and improve speed ⟶ Chat history is now automatically cached and truncated when approaching token limits so that you can have longer and faster conversations

🚨 Breaking Changes

• Truncation may change how agents (or assistants) respond to you

  and ActSettings.image_truncation_threshold as we
  now use more sophisticated truncation and caching strategies (less configurable for now)
