+- The message is appended to the session file immediately as a `CustomMessageEntry`
+- If the agent is currently streaming, the message is queued and appended after the current turn

+- `CustomMessageEntry` is converted to a user message when building context for the LLM

 ### pi.registerMessageRenderer(customType, renderer)
 
-Custom TUI rendering for `CustomMessageEntry`:
+Register a custom TUI renderer for `CustomMessageEntry` messages with your `customType`. Without a custom renderer, messages display with default purple styling showing the content as-is.
 
 ```typescript
 import { Text } from "@mariozechner/pi-tui";
 
 pi.registerMessageRenderer("my-hook", (message, options, theme) => {
-  // message.content, message.details
+  // message.content - the message content (string or content array)
-  // options.expanded (user pressed Ctrl+O)
+  // message.details - your custom metadata
-  return new Text(theme.fg("accent", `[MY-HOOK] ${message.content}`), 0, 0);
+  // options.expanded - true if user pressed Ctrl+O
+  
+  const prefix = theme.fg("accent", `[${message.details?.label ?? "INFO"}] `);
+  const text = typeof message.content === "string" 
+    ? message.content 
+    : message.content.map(c => c.type === "text" ? c.text : "[image]").join("");

+Return `null` to use default rendering. The returned component is wrapped in a styled Box by the TUI. See [tui.md](tui.md) for component details.
