Modify version responses to return a generic client name and omit
version strings. Drop the "profanity." prefix from dynamically
generated JID resources. Spoof the XEP-0115 capabilities node URI to
prevent service discovery/presence fingerprinting. These adjustments
reduce the client's attack surface by minimizing identifiable metadata.
## Introduced change
A new warning that notifies users when the connected XMPP server
advertises XEP-0199 (urn:xmpp:ping) support but the autoping feature
is disabled in settings. The warning can be toggled with
`/autoping warning on|off`.
The warning fires during the on-connect disco#info exchange, only for
responses from the server's own domain — responses from user JIDs or
subdomain services (e.g., conference servers) are excluded.
### Capabilities
- **On-connect detection**: Warning is emitted automatically when the
server's disco#info response indicates `urn:xmpp:ping` support while
autoping is disabled and the preference is enabled (default: on)
- **`/autoping warning on|off`**: Toggle the warning via the existing
autoping command
- **Domain-scoped**: Only triggers for disco#info from the bound server
domain; user JIDs and subdomain service JIDs are skipped
- **Case-insensitive domain matching**: Uses `g_ascii_strcasecmp` instead
of `g_strcmp0` to handle case differences between the stanza `from`
field and the bound domain
- **Display in settings**: Shown in both `/notify` and `/autoping`
settings dumps, with consistent alignment and `(/autoping warning)`
reference in each line
- **Autocomplete**: Dedicated `_autoping_autocomplete` function handles
the `warning` subcommand with `on|off` completion
## Reasoning behind the change
Users connecting to servers that support XEP-0199 ping but have autoping
disabled may experience poorer connection stability. The warning draws
attention to this configuration mismatch without requiring users to read
documentation or dig into settings.
The warning is scoped to the server domain (not user JIDs or subdomain
services) because autoping is a connection-level feature — it only makes
sense in the context of the server's keepalive capabilities.
The warning preference defaults to `on` so users are informed by default,
but can be disabled with `/autoping warning off` if they prefer not to
see it.
## Implementation details
### Warning logic (`src/xmpp/iq.c`)
`_disco_autoping_warning_message()` is called from the on-connect
disco#info handler when the `from` field matches the bound domain. It
checks three conditions:
1. Server features contain `urn:xmpp:ping`
2. Autoping interval is 0 (disabled)
3. `PREF_AUTOPING_WARNING` is true
All three must be true for the warning to display.
### Domain matching
`g_ascii_strcasecmp(from, connection_get_domain())` is used instead of
`g_strcmp0` to handle case differences. This prevents the warning from
silently skipping if a server echoes the `from` field in a different
case than the bound domain.
### Command integration (`src/command/cmd_*.c`)
- `cmd_defs.c`: Added `/autoping warning on|off` syntax and argument
description
- `cmd_funcs.c`: Added `warning` subcommand handler that calls
`_cmd_set_boolean_preference` with `PREF_AUTOPING_WARNING`
- `cmd_ac.c`: Registered dedicated `_autoping_autocomplete` that handles
the `warning` subcommand with `on|off` boolean completion
### Preference storage (`src/config/preferences.c`)
- Group: `PREF_GROUP_NOTIFICATIONS`
- Key: `autoping.warning`
- Default: `TRUE`
### Settings display (`src/ui/console.c`)
The autoping warning preference is shown in both `cons_notify_setting()`
and `cons_autoping_setting()` with consistent column alignment and a
`(/autoping warning)` reference in each line.
### Tests (`tests/functionaltests/test_autoping.c`)
Six functional tests cover all condition combinations:
| Test | Server ping | Autoping | Warning pref | Expected |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `autoping_warning_shown_when_disabled` | yes | off | on | warning shown |
| `autoping_warning_not_shown_when_server_unsupported` | no | off | on | no warning |
| `autoping_warning_not_shown_when_autoping_enabled` | yes | on | on | no warning |
| `autoping_warning_not_shown_when_user_disabled` | yes | off | off | no warning |
| `autoping_warning_not_shown_for_user_jid` | yes (from user JID) | off | on | no warning |
| `autoping_warning_not_shown_for_subdomain_service` | yes (from subdomain) | off | on | no warning |

Deprecate /logging command in favor of /history for chat logging control.
/history off now stops persistence (sets PREF_DBLOG=off + PREF_CHLOG=false)
in addition to hiding history on open. /history on restores persistence
(re-enabling PREF_DBLOG=on if it was off) and PREF_CHLOG.
statusbar
- PREF_STATUSBAR_SHOW_DBBACKEND (default ON) gates the [sqlite] /
[flatfile] indicator; toggle via "/statusbar show|hide dbbackend"
/history off|on
- "/history off" now stops persistence as well as hiding history on
open: sets PREF_DBLOG=off + PREF_CHLOG=false in addition to
PREF_HISTORY=false
- "/history on" restores persistence (re-enabling PREF_DBLOG=on if
it was off) and PREF_CHLOG, in addition to PREF_HISTORY=true
/logging
- Deprecated /logging command. It now prints a single notice
pointing to /history; CMD_PREAMBLE trimmed (min_args=0, no
setting_func, syntax/args/examples dropped); subcommand 'group'
removed from autocomplete
- All "use '/logging chat on' to enable" hints replaced with
"/history on" across /omemo-log, /pgp-log, /otr-log, and /ox-log
/privacy logging
- Single-pass validation across {on, off, redact, flatfile}
- Backend-switching values (on, flatfile) now take effect
immediately when connected (via log_database_switch_backend),
matching "/history switch" behaviour; off/redact only flip
pref bits and keep the live backend open
/correction off
- win_print_outgoing and win_print_outgoing_with_receipt now gate
_win_correct on PREF_CORRECTION_ALLOW, matching incoming-msg
paths. Previously a peer's correction reflected via XEP-0280
carbons (or the user's own /correct invocation) was applied
in-buffer regardless of the pref
console
- Drop orphaned /logging chat reference from cons_privacy_setting()
- Delete cons_logging_setting() and remove its call from
cons_show_log_prefs()
autocomplete
- Add dbbackend to statusbar_show_ac
- Remove logging_ac entries for chat/group subcommands
- Remove _logging_autocomplete() param handler for chat subcommand
database_flatfile
- Two local g_strndup allocations switched from char* with manual
g_free to auto_gchar gchar* for automatic cleanup
tests
- Update test_cmd_otr.c to expect new /history-on warning messages

Add an AI client module that integrates with OpenAI-compatible API
providers (OpenAI, Perplexity, and custom endpoints) to provide
AI-assisted chat within CProof. Users can start sessions with /ai start,
send prompts, receive responses in a dedicated AI window, switch between
providers and models, and manage API keys — all with tab-completion.
Providers are configured via /ai set commands with per-provider API keys,
endpoints, default models, and custom settings. Two default providers
(openai, perplexity) are seeded on first use. Provider state persists in
[ai/<name>] sections of the preferences keyfile with automatic migration
from the previous flat-key format.
The /ai command integrates into the existing command system with 8
subcommands covering provider management, session lifecycle, model
fetching, and conversation clearing. Autocomplete uses the standard
flat prefix-matching chain for reliable tab-completion at every nesting
level. A new ProfAiWin window type is added to the window system.
Architecture:
Async design: HTTP requests run on a background thread (pthread) to avoid blocking the ncurses UI loop; results are displayed on the main thread via direct function calls
Thread safety: AIProvider and AISession use atomic ref-counting and mutex-protected session state; the request thread snapshots all session data before making the HTTP call
Window validation: wins_ai_exists() prevents use-after-free when the user closes the AI window during an in-flight HTTP request (~60s)
Privacy: store:false is sent with every request to prevent providers from persisting conversations or using them for training
Response size limit: 10MB cap with immediate curl abort via CURL_WRITEFUNC_ERROR to prevent OOM
JSON parsing uses unified helpers for both chat responses and error
envelopes with consistent escape decoding. The response parser tries
Perplexity /v1/responses "text" field first, then falls back to OpenAI
"content". Error parsing extracts provider error.message from the
standard envelope format. Model parsing handles multiple API response
formats (OpenAI list, Perplexity, array) including edge cases.
Tests include 470+ lines of unit tests covering provider management,
session lifecycle, JSON parsing (multiple formats), autocomplete cycling,
and error handling, plus functional tests for /ai command dispatch.
A stub_ai.c module isolates unit tests from UI dependencies.
Implement /force-encryption command to configure forced encryption
settings with on|off and policy resend-to-confirm|block options.
The changes enhance user experience by clarifying encryption requirements
and providing actionable commands. Users can now press Enter again to
confirm unencrypted messages in resend-to-confirm mode.
Commit to allow unicode support in omemo/pgp/otr chars misses
adding support to set correction character.
1f8b1eb740
Further fixing commit also misses adding support to set the unicode character,
it only adds ability to display unicode correction character in the settings.

Add ability to completely turn logs off,
Needed since `/logging` and `/history` didn't stop history logging
in the DB, only in files.
Command might break something on usage,
hence it was primarily introduced for privacy geeks.
Privacy command discussion #1836
Refactor `p_gpg_list_keys`
Add `/pgp autoimport` command,
it's not described in XEP-0027, but used in some clients,
such as PSI, Pidgin. It will autoimport keys received with
`/pgp sendpub`, in plain text as a message, or using features,
provided in other clients. It doesn't autoassign them, but shows
command to assign, letting user to decide.
Improve documentation for some preexisting functions
Add contact argument to `/pgp sendpub`
The existing way how active tabs are displayed didn't allow showing more
than 10 tabs. This patch adds a mode where the statusbar shows a
comma-separated list of tabs which were active since the last time viewed.
This view is inspired by how `irssi` shows the active tabs, therefore
it is also called `actlist`.

Only nicknames, photos, birthdays, addresses, telephone numbers, emails,
JIDs, titles, roles, notes, and URLs are supported
Due to the synopsis array not having enough space, `/vcard photo
open-self` and `/vcard photo save-self` are not documented properly in
the synopsis section of the `/vcard` command, but they are documented in
the arguments section
Fixed memory leak in vcard autocomplete (thanks to debXwoody)
@mdosch discovered that we now don't print `:` for messages from others
anymore.
Until
https://github.com/profanity-im/profanity/pull/1663#issuecomment-1114625151
is fixed lets restore the default behaviour to always add `:` in
`_win_print_internal()`.
The result will be that a stamp set to `-->` will also look like `-->:`.
Dont show presence status changes by default in chat and muc windows.
Users repeatedly ask how to change this setting in the MUC.
We have it in the FAQ since a long time.
And most people I know change this setting, including me.
So it looks like it's time to change this default.
When preferences do not specify a program to be used for /editor
command, try getting it from EDITOR (which POSIX.1-2017 calls one of
"variables that are frequently exported by widely used command
interpreters and applications"), fall back to "vim" if not set.
This and the following commits should make a couple of more configs
allow utf8 chars so people can use their weird icons :-)
We did the same for the otr/omemo/pgp indicators at:
