Replace the deeply nested conditional tree in _ai_autocomplete() with a
flat sequential chain of autocomplete_param_with_*() calls. Each call
tries a specific command prefix (e.g., "/ai set provider", "/ai start")
and returns immediately on match — a common, reliable pattern for
command-line tab completion.
The previous design nested provider-name autocomplete inside
g_strv_length() and g_strcmp0() checks, meaning /ai<tab> and /ai <tab>
would never reach the subcommand matcher. The new flat structure ensures
every prefix is tried in order, with the most specific prefixes first
and the generic /ai subcommand fallback last.
This pattern — sequential prefix matching with early return — is the
standard approach for autocomplete dispatch: each handler owns its
prefix, no shared state or argument parsing is needed, and adding a
new subcommand is a single append to the chain.
The generic `/ai <subcommand>` tab-completion was nested inside conditional
blocks that prevented it from firing in common cases — for example,
`/ai<tab>` or `/ai <tab>` would never match subcommands because the
`autocomplete_param_with_ac()` call was guarded by argument count checks
and nested inside the explicit handler branches.
Move the fallback subcommand autocomplete to execute unconditionally after
all explicit handler branches, ensuring `/ai <tab>` always lists available
subcommands regardless of argument count or which subcommand was typed.
Also move the `/ai set` subcommand fallback outside the inner else-block
so it runs whenever args[0] is "set", not only when num_args >= 2.
Add an AI client module that integrates with OpenAI-compatible API
providers (OpenAI, Perplexity, and custom providers) to provide
AI-assisted responses within the profanity client.
The implementation includes:
- src/ai/ai_client.c/h: Core AI client with provider management,
session handling, and async HTTP request handling via libcurl.
Supports per-provider API keys stored in preferences, reference-
counted sessions, and conversation history tracking.
- src/ui/window.c/window_list.c: New AI window type (ProfAiWin) for
displaying AI conversations, with response streaming and error
display capabilities.
- Command integration: New `/ai` command (cmd_defs.c, cmd_funcs.c)
for creating sessions, sending prompts, and managing providers.
Provider autocomplete support in cmd_ac.c.
- Preferences integration: API keys for providers are persisted in
the preferences system (config/preferences.c).
- Unit tests: 472 lines of comprehensive tests covering provider
management, session lifecycle, JSON escaping, and autocomplete
(tests/unittests/test_ai_client.c).
Architecture decisions:
- Asynchronous design: HTTP requests run on a separate thread to
avoid blocking the main UI loop. Callbacks are invoked on the main
thread via direct function call (profanity uses ncurses, not GLib
main loop).
- Reference counting: Both AIProvider and AISession use ref counting
for safe shared ownership.
- Response size limit: 10MB cap on HTTP responses to prevent OOM.
While trying to get the unit tests working again I stumbled over all those
things that I thought could be better^TM.
Now we also know "TODO: why does this make the test fail?" - because
the unit tests are brittle AF ... and we have to init the subsystems
we use in the test, otherwise the cleanup will fail...
BTW. you can now also only run a single test ... or a pattern or so ...
you'd have to read how `cmocka_set_test_filter()` works exactly.

Return static tabmode as default,
separate previous change in `dynamic` mode.
Despite usefulness of the solution,
it was not approved to be a new default.
Vote (link below) amongst users to change default
has shown inconclusive result and it was not representative,
as it had low number of participants.

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`
Command allows to share your PGP pub key with ease,
it's not described in XEP-0027, but used in some clients,
such as PSI, Pidgin.
Fix typos
Minor improvements
Add "/avatar disable" to comply with point "3.5 Publisher Disables
Avatar Publishing" in XEP-0084.
src/command/cmd_defs.c:2416
Add "disable" argument. Reword the "/avatar" command description
so it flows better.
src/command/cmd_ac.c:1101
Add "disable" to the "/avatar" autocomplete dictionary.
src/command/cmd_funcs.c:9277
Split "/avatar" commands into two groups with an if statement; those
with a parameter and those without. "cons_bad_cmd_usage()" is in both
groups, which is messy. "disable" has similar logic to "set", but it
includes a failure message.
src/xmpp/avatar.c:152
"avatar_publishing_disable()" uses the same logic to publish metadata
as in "avatar_set()".
src/xmpp/avatar.c:238
Add a message to inform users when they do not receive an avatar after
using "/avatar get" and "/avatar open". In case of a failure, the user
will be subscribed to future avatar updates as long as they continue
to use their current instance of profanity. Adding
"caps_remove_feature()" after "cons_show()" will unsubscribe the user
from avatar updates and prevent the user from downloading an avatar
unexpectedly hours later without issuing an "/avatar" command.
src/xmpp/stanza.c:2698
The new "disable" function follows the same logic as
"stanza_create_avatar_metadata_publish_iq()".
Introduce new feature: sessions_alarm.
Added new account setting: max_connections. On exceeding this number,
user will get an alert. If number is less than 1, no alert will happen.
Tests altered to fit new feature.
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`.

Before this change the same hashtable was re-created each time one used the
auto-completion feature.

Previously after the url if you pressed tab, even if you typed out a
filepath, profanity would erase that and cycle through url autocomplete
results.
This patch solves that and autocompletes filepaths after the url.

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)
`/lastactivity` used autocompletion for /status instead.
There was no get/set autocompletion thus user had to write `/lastactivity
get` to get the proper results.

`/log level INFO|DEBUG|WARN|ERROR` is now available.
Looks like this solves a TODO (see removed comment in source) from 2013
:-)
Works only with default log file. Not with user provided log file during
start up via the -f parameter.

Use `/avatar set <path>` where <path> is an image file to upload a new
avatar for the current user. When the avatar is too big it gets scaled
down. Scaling code copied from dino.
