Digest — 2026-06-12

I'll analyze the upstream commit from the Pi coding agent project. Let me fetch the commit details first.

Upstream Changes Digest

Bug Fixes

• fix(coding-agent): skip first-time setup for forks (1da90398)
  • Prevents first-time setup from running in forked/rebranded versions of Pi
  • Adds distribution metadata checking to shouldRunFirstTimeSetup() function
  • Fixes issue where forked users were incorrectly seeing first-time setup prompts

Internal/Refactor

• Distribution metadata system (1da90398)
  • Added isOfficialDistribution() function to detect official vs forked distributions
  • Introduced constants for official package/app/config directory names
  • Enhanced startup UI logic with fork-aware checks

Testing

• New fork setup test suite (1da90398)
  • Added first-time-setup-fork.test.ts to verify setup skipping for forked distributions
  • Tests mock forked package configurations and verify expected behavior
  • Ensures PI_EXPERIMENTAL environment doesn't trigger setup in non-official builds

---

Summary: This change prevents first-time setup from running in forked versions of Pi by adding distribution metadata checks. The fix ensures that experimental features and setup flows only execute for the official Pi distribution, eliminating confusion for users of forked or rebranded versions while maintaining compatibility for official builds.
