All notable user-facing changes to `pi-chrome`. +## 0.15.1 — 2026-05-13 + +- **Architecture diagram now renders on pi.dev.** Replaced Unicode box-drawing characters (`┌─┐│└┘┬▼`) with plain ASCII (`+ - | v`). Pi.dev's monospace font was dropping the horizontal `─` glyphs, leaving the diagram as floating vertical bars. ASCII renders everywhere. +- **`author` switched to object form.** Was `"tianrendong (Earendil Inc.)"` — npm's author-string spec parses `(parens)` as the URL slot, so `"Earendil Inc."` ended up in `author.url`. Now `{ "name": "tianrendong", "company": "Earendil Inc." }`. + ## 0.15.0 — 2026-05-13 - **README rewrite — top-3 recipes as terminal mockups.** PR triage, Linear standup, and Bug-repro-with-evidence each get a copy-pasteable prompt → tool trace → result block modeled on the hero example. The other six recipes (form auto-fill, admin cross-check, visual diff, auth-only data pull, network forensics, file upload) collapsed into a `<details>` block so the section sells before it catalogs.

The first session opens the local bridge; later sessions detect it and pipe their commands through.
