refactor: simplify max line chars calculation with builtin max()

Model and thinking level choices now survive restarts, matching the
existing theme persistence pattern. Selections are saved to
~/.config/kit/preferences.yml and restored on next launch.

Precedence: CLI flag > config file > saved preference > default

Changes:
- Extended preferences struct with model and thinking_level fields
- Refactored preferences.go to shared load/save helpers (DRY)
- Added SaveModelPreference/LoadModelPreference
- Added SaveThinkingLevelPreference/LoadThinkingLevelPreference
- Persist on /model, model selector, /thinking, and Shift+Tab cycle
- Restore at startup in runNormalMode when no explicit flag/config
- Added modelFlagChanged/thinkingFlagChanged to detect explicit flags
- Comprehensive tests for all preference operations

-name: btca-cli
-description: Operate the btca CLI for local resources and source-first answers. Use when setting up btca in a project, connecting a provider, adding or managing resources, and asking questions via btca commands. Invoke this skill when the user says "use btca" or needs to do more detailed research on a specific library or framework.
----
-
-# btca CLI
-
-`btca` is a source-first research CLI. It hydrates resources (git, local, npm) into searchable context, then answers questions grounded in those sources. Use configured resources for ongoing work, or one-off anonymous resources directly in `btca ask`.
-
-Full CLI reference: https://docs.btca.dev/guides/cli-reference
-
-Add resources:
-
-```bash
-# Git resource
-btca add -n svelte-dev https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte.dev
-
-# Local directory
-btca add -n my-docs -t local /absolute/path/to/docs
-
-# npm package
-btca add npm:@types/node@22.10.1 -n node-types -t npm
-```
-
-Verify resources:
-
-```bash
-btca resources
-```
-
-Ask a question:
-
-```bash
-btca ask -r svelte-dev -q "How do I define remote functions?"
-```
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Ask with multiple resources:
-
-```bash
-btca ask -r react -r typescript -q "How do I type useState?"
-```
-
-- Ask with anonymous one-off resources (not saved to config):
-
-```bash
-# One-off git repo
-btca ask -r https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte -q "Where is the implementation of writable stores?"
-
-# One-off npm package
-btca ask -r npm:react@19.0.0 -q "How is useTransition exported?"
-```
-
-## Config Overview
-
-- Config lives in `btca.config.jsonc` (project) and `~/.config/btca/btca.config.jsonc` (global).
-- Project config overrides global and controls provider/model and resources.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- "No resources configured": add resources with `btca add ...` and re-run `btca resources`.
-- "Provider not connected": run `btca connect` and follow the prompts.
-- "Unknown resource": use `btca resources` for configured names, or pass a valid HTTPS git URL / `npm:<package>` as an anonymous one-off in `btca ask`.

+### ACP Server Mode
+
+Kit can run as an [ACP (Agent Client Protocol)](https://agentclientprotocol.com) agent server, enabling ACP-compatible clients (such as [OpenCode](https://github.com/sst/opencode)) to drive Kit as a remote coding agent over stdio.
+
+```bash
+# Start Kit as an ACP server (communicates via JSON-RPC 2.0 on stdin/stdout)
+kit acp
+
+# With debug logging to stderr
+kit acp --debug
+```
+
+The ACP server exposes Kit's full capabilities — LLM execution, tool calls (bash, read, write, edit, grep, etc.), and session persistence — over the standard ACP protocol. Sessions are persisted to Kit's normal JSONL session files, so they can be resumed later.
+

+```
+
+**Available assertions:**
+- `AssertBlocked()`, `AssertNotBlocked()` — Verify tool blocking
+- `AssertWidgetSet()`, `AssertWidgetText()` — Verify widget content
+- `AssertPrinted()`, `AssertPrintedContains()` — Verify output
+- `AssertToolRegistered()`, `AssertCommandRegistered()` — Verify registration
+
+See `examples/extensions/tool-logger_test.go` for a complete example with 14 test cases covering tool calls, input handling, and session lifecycle.
+
 ## Session Management
 
 Kit uses a tree-based session model that supports branching and forking conversations.
 
 ### Session Locations
 
-- Default: `~/.local/share/kit/sessions/<cwd-hash>/<uuid>.jsonl`
+- Default: `~/.kit/sessions/<cwd-path>/<timestamp>_<id>.jsonl`
+- Path separators in the working directory are replaced with `--` (e.g., `/home/user/project` becomes `home--user--project`)
 - Each line is a session entry (messages, tool calls, extension data)
 - Supports branching from any message to explore alternate paths

+## Multi-File Extension Example
+
+The `kit-kit-agents/` directory demonstrates the multi-file pattern:
+
+```
+kit-kit-agents/
+├── main.go          # Entry point with Init()
+├── agent.go         # Agent configuration
+├── manager.go       # Agent lifecycle management
+└── README.md        # Documentation
+```
+
+When the repo is installed, all files in subdirectories with `main.go` are loaded as separate extensions.
+
+## Testing & Validation
+
+After installing, test the extensions:
+
+```bash
+# List all loaded extensions
+kit extensions list
+
+# Validate all extensions
+kit extensions validate
+
+# Run with a specific extension
+kit -e ~/.local/share/kit/git/github.com/mark3labs/kit/examples/extensions/plan-mode.go
+```
+
+## Creating Your Own
+
+1. Copy `minimal.go` as a starting point
+2. Modify the `Init()` function to register your handlers
+3. Use the other examples for reference on specific APIs
+4. Test with `kit -e your-extension.go`
+5. Share by pushing to a git repository!
+
+## Update
+
+To get the latest examples:
+
+```bash
+kit install github.com/mark3labs/kit/examples/extensions --update
+```

+# kit-telegram
+
+A Kit extension that relays all Kit agent runs to Telegram and lets approved Telegram users reply back into Kit.
+
+## What it does
+
+- Relays **all Kit runs** to one Telegram chat while connected
+- Edits one Telegram progress message in place during a run
+- Lets approved Telegram users send normal text replies back into Kit
+- Shows `Telegram Connected` or `Telegram Disconnected` in the status bar
+- Shows a small spinner animation as `⠋ Telegram Connecting` only while the relay is still connecting
+- On startup with an already validated enabled config, sends a short Telegram connection message to confirm the relay is up
+
+## Requirements
+
+- `kit` installed and working
+- A Telegram bot token from `@BotFather`
+- Either:
+  - A Telegram chat where you can message the bot, or
+  - A numeric Telegram chat id you want to enter manually
+- For group chats, one or more allowed Telegram user ids
+
+## Quickstart
+
+### 1. Install the extension
+
+```bash
+kit install github.com/mark3labs/kit/examples/extensions/kit-telegram
+```
+
+Or run directly:
+```bash
+kit -e path/to/kit-telegram/main.go
+```
+
+### 2. Start Kit and connect Telegram
+
+```bash
+kit
+```
+
+Inside Kit, run:
+
+```
+/telegram connect
+```
+
+You will be prompted for:
+
+- Bot token from `@BotFather`
+- Whether to auto-detect the chat by messaging the bot or enter the chat id manually
+- Allowed user ids when needed
+
+### 3. Verify the relay
+
+```
+/telegram test
+```
+
+Reply in Telegram with the code from the test message.
+
+## Commands
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `/telegram` | Human-friendly overview and subcommand list |
+| `/telegram status` | Raw deterministic relay state |
+| `/telegram test` | Verify outbound and inbound relay |
+| `/telegram toggle` | Enable or disable relay without deleting credentials |
+| `/telegram logout` | Remove saved credentials and disconnect relay |
+| `/telegram connect` | Run the setup flow again |
+| `/telegram clear` | Clear Telegram status and working messages from the TUI |
+
+## Remote commands (from Telegram)
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `/telegram` | Sends the overview back to Telegram |
+| `/telegram status` | Sends the deterministic state report to Telegram |
+| `/telegram test` | Sends a reply-code test message from Telegram |
+| `/telegram toggle` | Flips the enabled flag |
+| `/telegram logout yes` | Logs out (requires `yes` confirmation) |
+| `/telegram clear` | Clears the TUI footer and working messages |
+
+## Key APIs Used
+
+- `RegisterCommand` — Slash command with subcommands and tab completion
+- `OnSessionStart` / `OnSessionShutdown` — Lifecycle management
+- `OnAgentStart` / `OnAgentEnd` — Run tracking and progress rendering
+- `OnToolCall` / `OnToolResult` — Action tracking
+- `OnMessageEnd` — Capture assistant responses
+- `OnInput` — Mirror local messages to Telegram
+- `SetStatus` / `RemoveStatus` — Status bar indicators
+- `SetWidget` / `RemoveWidget` — Working message display
+- `PromptInput` / `PromptSelect` / `PromptConfirm` — Interactive setup flow
+- `SendMessage` — Inject Telegram replies as Kit prompts
+
+## Architecture
+
+Single Go file interpreted by Yaegi at runtime. Core components:
+
+- **Telegram Bot API client** — HTTP calls via `net/http` for getMe, getChat, getChatMember, getUpdates (long-polling), sendMessage, editMessageText
+- **Config persistence** — JSON file at `.kit/kit-telegram.json` with atomic writes
+- **Long-polling goroutine** — Background polling for Telegram updates with warmup poll, retry, and client-side timeouts
+- **Message queue** — In-memory FIFO queue for Telegram prompt input with edit-before-dispatch support
+- **Progress rendering** — `⏳ elapsed · step N` with action lines, edited in place
+- **Final rendering** — `✅/❌ elapsed` with response text, split into chunks for long output
+
+## Debug mode
+
+Set environment variable `KIT_TELEGRAM_DEBUG=1` to enable verbose debug logging.
