--last now compares mtime of pos dispatcher logs vs captured output
(last_cmd_output) and uses whichever is newer, instead of always
preferring pos logs even when they are hours old.
pos ai gemini: --session gives ask/chat persistent memory
(~/.local/share/linux_post_install/ai/<name>.json, capped 40 turns),
new 'sessions' subcommand to list/clear; --system injects a Gemini
systemInstruction on every turn without storing it in the session file.
Telegram listener keeps one session per chat (telegram-<chat_id>), clears
on 'ai /reset', passes a Telegram-voice system prompt (emojis welcome),
and strips markdown from replies before sendMessage since messages are
sent as plain text. Docs: howto/ai.md flags/sessions/bridge behavior.
cfg_read_secret is invoked via $() inside _cfg_edit_one, so the echo that
advanced the cursor after hidden input landed on the capture pipe instead of
the terminal — every secret value stored with pos config on a real TTY got a
leading newline (e.g. AI_GEMINI_API_KEY="\n<key>"), which neither cfg_value
nor the ai/telegram load_config parsers could read back: the menu showed
'(not set)' and pos ai gemini kept demanding a key.
Fix: send that newline to stderr (>&2). Defense in depth: cfg_write and
write_config_key now strip CR and truncate multi-line pastes, and the readers
(cfg_value, ai + telegram load_config) strip CR. Reproduced and verified on a
pseudo-TTY; piped-stdin tests never caught it because non-TTY input skips the
stty/echo path.
- bin/pos-ai-gemini: one-shot ask (stdout-only, pipe-friendly), interactive
multi-turn chat REPL (q/Ctrl+C, /reset), models list; --model override,
default gemini-2.5-flash; key via x-goog-api-key header, never printed.
- Config scope 'ai' (AI_GEMINI_API_KEY secret, AI_GEMINI_MODEL) in
~/.config/linux_post_install/ai.env via 'pos config ai'; config/ai.env
template installed no-clobber by postinstall.
- Telegram listener: non-command text starting with 'ai ' (case-insensitive)
is answered by Gemini via 'pos ai gemini ask'; owner-chat only, errors
reply with the pos config ai hint. Future intents slot in as case arms.
- ai-gemini added to INTERACTIVE_CMDS (chat reads stdin).
