Pi v0.79.5 introduces provider-scoped environment overrides
The v0.79.5 release of Pi, an open-source CLI-based AI agent toolkit, introduces provider-scoped environment overrides in auth.json to isolate LLM credentials and proxy configurations. The update also adds a global HTTP proxy setting, updates its Markdown parser, and fixes compatibility issues with OpenAI, DeepSeek V4, and Z.AI GLM-5.2 endpoints.
Granular configuration control is a critical evolution step for developer-oriented agent toolkits that manage connections across multiple LLM endpoints.
* Scoped environment overrides prevent token/key leakage and config pollution in the developer's main system shell.
* Stopping the browser from automatically spawning on device-code login is a welcome improvement for developers working via SSH or Docker containers.
* Minor endpoint compatibility updates for OpenAI-compatible platforms and DeepSeek show active maintenance for alternative and local LLM runners.
