Release by release

  1. 14.2.5

    27 Oct 20261 new
    • new

      Dependencies updated: @inquirer/password@5.2.5 fixes the cursor overlapping the message when the password prompt is empty (#2360), and @inquirer/core@12.0.6 fixes piped-stdin answers being dropped before the first render

  2. 14.2.4

    19 Oct 20261 new
    • new

      Rolled up this release's fixes: checkbox() ignoring input while validation is pending (#2296), prompt cleanup cancelling a pending initial render on cancel/abort (#2318), and number() treating whitespace-only input as empty (#2307).

  3. 14.2.3

    4 Oct 20262 new
    • new

      Rolled up the prompt fixes from this release: search() stale-choice submission (#2291), confirm() always accepting y/n (#2281), expand()/rawlist() whitespace handling (#2280).

    • new

      All package READMEs now document the Deno install command (#2269).

  4. 14.2.2

    7 Sep 20261 new · 1 fix
    • new

      confirm() now trims surrounding whitespace from answers before matching yes/no keywords (@inquirer/confirm, #2254).

    • fixed

      Fixed a race where keystrokes batched in the same tick as the key that settled a prompt could still reach keypress handlers after the prompt was done, cancelled, or aborted (@inquirer/core, #2255, closes #1816).

  5. 14.2.1

    2 Sep 20261 new
    • new

      Published manifests now pin @inquirer/type to an exact version. Since these type definitions leak into consumers' tsc runs, a semver range on the types-only dependency could break downstream TypeScript builds without any change to Inquirer.js itself (#2247, fixes #2244).

  6. 14.2.0

    26 Aug 20262 new
    • new

      Updated to @inquirer/prompts@^8.7.0 and @inquirer/core@^12.0.1.

    • new

      Includes the new toggleMask option for password (ctrl+t to reveal), localized yes/no parsing for confirm, and prettified prompt/theme types for better IDE display.

  7. 14.1.0

    19 Aug 20262 new
    • new

      Updated to @inquirer/prompts@^8.6.0 and @inquirer/core@^12.0.0.

    • new

      Includes the new initialValue option for search, floating-point step fixes for number, and explicit-undefined default handling in number/confirm/editor.

  8. 14.0.2

    31 May 20261 fix
    • fixed

      Fix security warnings in external-editor
