Without this I get an issue running codex it in a docker container. I
receive:
```
{
"answer": "{\"role\":\"user\",\"content\":[{\"type\":\"input_text\",\"text\":\"\\\"Say hello world\\\"\"}],\"type\":\"message\"}\n{\"id\":\"error-1745325184914\",\"type\":\"message\",\"role\":\"system\",\"content\":[{\"type\":\"input_text\",\"text\":\"⚠️ OpenAI rejected the request (request ID: req_f9027b59ebbce00061e9cd2dbb2d529a). Error details: Status: 400, Code: invalid_function_parameters, Type: invalid_request_error, Message: 400 Invalid schema for function 'shell': In context=(), 'required' is required to be supplied and to be an array including every key in properties. Missing 'workdir'.. Please verify your settings and try again.\"}]}\n"
}
```
This fix makes it work.
Add interactive slash‑command autocomplete & navigation in chat input
Description
This PR enhances the chat input component by adding first‑class support
for slash commands (/help, /clear, /compact, etc.)
with:
* **Live filtering:** As soon as the user types leading `/`, a list of
matching commands is shown below the prompt.
* **Arrow‑key navigation:** Up/Down arrows cycle through suggestions.
* **Enter to autocomplete:** Pressing Enter on a partial command will
fill it (without submitting) so you can add
arguments or simply press Enter again to execute.
* **Type‑safe registry:** A new `slash‑commands.ts` file declares all
supported commands in one place, along with
TypeScript types to prevent drift.
* **Validation:** Only registered commands will ever autocomplete or be
suggested; unknown single‑word slash inputs still
show an “Invalid command” system message.
* **Automated tests:**
* Unit tests for the command registry and prefix filtering
* Existing tests continue passing with no regressions
Motivation
Slash commands provide a quick, discoverable way to control the agent
(clearing history, compacting context, opening overlays,
etc.). Before, users had to memorize the exact command or rely on the
generic /help list—autocomplete makes them far more
accessible and reduces typos.
Changes
* `src/utils/slash‑commands.ts` – defines `SlashCommand` and exports a
flat list of supported commands + descriptions
* `terminal‑chat‑input.tsx`
* Import and type the command registry
* Render filtered suggestions under the prompt when input starts with
`/`
* Hook into `useInput` to handle Up/Down and Enter for selection & fill
* Flag to swallow the first Enter (autocomplete) and only submit on the
next
* Updated tests in `tests/slash‑commands.test.ts` to cover registry
contents and filtering logic
* Removed old JS version and fixed stray `@ts‑expect‑error`
How to test locally
1. Type `/` in the prompt—you should see matching commands.
2. Use arrows to move the highlight, press Enter to fill, then Enter
again to execute.
3. Run the full test suite (`npm test`) to verify no regressions.
Notes
* Future work could include fuzzy matching, paging long lists, or more
visual styling.
* This change is purely additive and does not affect non‑slash inputs or
existing slash handlers.

Added the ability to compact. Not sure if I should switch the model over
to gpt-4.1 for longer context or if keeping the current model is fine.
Also I'm not sure if setting the compacted to system is best practice,
would love feedback 😄
