Two independent bugs caused the reasoning box to appear three times when
the model produced reasoning + tool_calls:
Bug A: _build_assistant_message() re-fired reasoning_callback with the full
reasoning text even when streaming had already displayed it. The original
guard only checked structured reasoning_content deltas, but reasoning also
arrives via content tag extraction (<REASONING_SCRATCHPAD>/<think> tags
in delta.content), which went through _fire_stream_delta not
_fire_reasoning_delta. Fix: skip the callback entirely when streaming is
active — both paths display reasoning during the stream. Any reasoning not
shown during streaming is caught by the CLI post-response fallback.
Bug B: The post-response reasoning display checked _reasoning_stream_started,
but that flag was reset by _reset_stream_state() during intermediate turn
boundaries (when stream_delta_callback(None) fires between tool calls).
Introduced _reasoning_shown_this_turn flag that persists across the tool
loop and is only reset at the start of each user turn.
Live-tested in PTY: reasoning now shows exactly once per API call, no
duplicates across tool-calling loops.
Three improvements to reasoning/thinking display in the CLI:
1. Buffer tiny reasoning chunks: providers like DeepSeek stream reasoning
one word at a time, producing a separate [thinking] line per token.
Add a buffer that coalesces chunks and flushes at natural boundaries
(newlines, sentence endings, terminal width).
2. Fix duplicate reasoning display: centralize callback selection into
_current_reasoning_callback() — one place instead of 4 scattered
inline ternaries. Prevents both the streaming box AND the preview
callback from firing simultaneously.
3. Fix post-response reasoning box guard: change the check from
'not self._stream_started' to 'not self._reasoning_stream_started'
so the final reasoning box is only suppressed when reasoning was
actually streamed live, not when any text was streamed.

* fix: /reasoning command output ordering, display, and inline think extraction
Three issues with the /reasoning command:
1. Output interleaving: The command echo used print() while feedback
used _cprint(), causing them to render out-of-order under
prompt_toolkit's patch_stdout. Changed echo to use _cprint() so
all output renders through the same path in correct order.
2. Reasoning display not working: /reasoning show toggled a flag
but reasoning never appeared for models that embed thinking in
inline <think> blocks rather than structured API fields. Added
fallback extraction in _build_assistant_message to capture
<think> block content as reasoning when no structured reasoning
fields (reasoning, reasoning_content, reasoning_details) are
present. This feeds into both the reasoning callback (during
tool loops) and the post-response reasoning box display.
3. Feedback clarity: Added checkmarks to confirm actions, persisted
show/hide to config (was session-only before), and aligned the
status display for readability.
Tests: 7 new tests for inline think block extraction (41 total).
* feat: add /reasoning command to gateway (Telegram/Discord/etc)
The /reasoning command only existed in the CLI — messaging platforms
had no way to view or change reasoning settings. This adds:
1. /reasoning command handler in the gateway:
- No args: shows current effort level and display state
- /reasoning <level>: sets reasoning effort (none/low/medium/high/xhigh)
- /reasoning show|hide: toggles reasoning display in responses
- All changes saved to config.yaml immediately
2. Reasoning display in gateway responses:
- When show_reasoning is enabled, prepends a 'Reasoning' block
with the model's last_reasoning content before the response
- Collapses long reasoning (>15 lines) to keep messages readable
- Uses last_reasoning from run_conversation result dict
3. Plumbing:
- Added _show_reasoning attribute loaded from config at startup
- Propagated last_reasoning through _run_agent return dict
- Added /reasoning to help text and known_commands set
- Uses getattr for _show_reasoning to handle test stubs
Combined implementation of reasoning management:
- /reasoning Show current effort level and display state
- /reasoning <level> Set reasoning effort (none, low, medium, high, xhigh)
- /reasoning show|on Show model thinking/reasoning in output
- /reasoning hide|off Hide model thinking/reasoning from output
Effort level changes persist to config and force agent re-init.
Display toggle updates the agent callback dynamically without re-init.
When display is enabled:
- Intermediate reasoning shown as dim [thinking] lines during tool loops
- Final reasoning shown in a bordered box above the response
- Long reasoning collapsed (5 lines intermediate, 10 lines final)
Also adds:
- reasoning_callback parameter to AIAgent
- last_reasoning in run_conversation result dict
- show_reasoning config option (display section, default: false)
- Display section in /config output
- 34 tests covering both features
Combines functionality from PR #789 and PR #790.
