Merge pull request #791 from roshanasingh4/fix/788-implicit-delivery-leak

Prevent onboarding TUI from auto-delivering to lastProvider/lastTo

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -33,6 +33,7 @@
 - Google: apply patched pi-ai `google-gemini-cli` function call handling (strips ids) after upgrading to pi-ai 0.43.0.
 - Auto-reply: elevated/reasoning toggles now enqueue system events so the model sees the mode change immediately.
 - Tools: keep `image` available in sandbox and fail over when image models return empty output (fixes “(no text returned)”).
+- Onboarding: TUI defaults to `deliver: false` to avoid cross-provider auto-delivery leaks; onboarding spawns the TUI with explicit `deliver: false`. (#791 — thanks @roshanasingh4)
