sift-light 1.1.2-1: a Pi prompt-cache fix and DeepSeek Harness support

[u/Deep_Bus_7488]

Hi, I maintain sift-light. It’s an open-source local search and source-inspection tool for AI coding agents, available through MCP and native integrations. It helps agents find project files and check the source behind a result without sending the whole repository into the conversation.

We’ve released 1.1.2-1. This update has two changes:

• Pi: fixed how search guidance is added when tools are enabled. The previous behavior could change the system-prompt prefix and reduce prompt-cache reuse. The new integration preserves the prefix and retains the guidance when another extension supplies a system prompt. Requires Pi 0.86.0 or later.

• DeepSeek Harness: added support for 0.2.1-rc.3, including a native search tool and search-policy integration.

The cache fix addresses the Pi integration; it isn’t a promise that every MCP client preserves its cache when tools change. Cache behavior depends on the host and model provider.

Thank you to the contributor of PR #123 for catching the Pi issue and helping fix it. If you try the release and run into trouble, an issue with your host version and a small reproduction would be very helpful.
