feat(cli): add /btw — queue a context note without firing a turn#168
Merged
Conversation
/btw <note> appends a "by the way" note to the conversation history (via
ctx.newHistory) so the agent sees it with your next message, without running an
agent turn now. Useful for steering mid-task ("/btw use tabs not spaces").
Tests (+2): queues the note into newHistory; usage with no arg. cli 145.
Doc: /btw 🔄 → 🟡 (exact Claude Code behavior may differ; this is the useful
DeepCode interpretation). Deliberately did NOT guess at /terminal-setup escape
codes or /migrate-installer — those stay 🔄 pending verified specifics.
