Description
## Bug
Installing shell-sage from PyPI (1.0.8) and running `ssage` produces **no output** — just a `Connecting...` spinner, then exit code 0.
## To reproduce
```
uv tool install shell-sage # resolves to 1.0.8
ssage "Say hello"
```
Expected: a streamed answer. Actual: `⠋ Connecting...` with nothing after it.
## Error messages
None — the process exits with code 0 and empty stderr. The failure is silent, which makes it easy to miss.
## Root cause
In 1.0.8, `get_res` in `shell_sage/core.py` only accumulates chunks that are dicts:
```python
if isinstance(chunk, dict) and 'text' in chunk: _res += chunk['text']
```
Current `python-fastllm` (0.0.40) streams `Text`/`Thinking` objects instead of plain dicts, so no chunk is ever accumulated, nothing renders, and the process exits 0.
This is already fixed on `main` (commit `564d013`, "fixes #96", using fastllm's `StreamAccum`) — but **no release has been cut since**. PyPI still serves 1.0.8 (released 2026-07-20), so everyone installing today gets the broken version. This affects both `uv tool install` and `pip install shell-sage`.
I searched the open issues before filing this — none report this bug. #96 (closed) only tracked the code fix itself, which is done; this issue is about that fix never being released.
## Workaround
```
uv tool install --force --from git+https://github.com/AnswerDotAI/shell_sage shell-sage
```
## Request
Please cut a 1.0.9 release so the `StreamAccum` fix ships to PyPI.
## Environment
- macOS, zsh
- shell-sage 1.0.8 (PyPI)
- python-fastllm 0.0.40
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by inspecting commit 564d013 on main and the versioned package around shell_sage/core.py, then verify how the project publishes to PyPI. Done means a 1.0.9 package is available from PyPI and `uv tool install shell-sage` or `pip install shell-sage` produces a streamed answer with python-fastllm 0.0.40.
