- Create Pi Reader browser extension for Chrome/Firefox
- Chrome uses Side Panel API, Firefox uses Sidebar Action API
- Supports both browsers with separate manifests and unified codebase
- Built with mini-lit components and Tailwind CSS v4
- Features model selection dialog with Ollama support
- Hot reload development server watches both browser builds
- Add useDefineForClassFields: false to fix LitElement reactivity
- Test handling of empty content arrays
- Test handling of empty string content
- Test handling of whitespace-only content
- All providers handle these edge cases gracefully
- Added contentSignature tracking for assistant messages
- Fixed message format in convertToResponsesFormat (output_text instead of input_text)
- Properly preserve message IDs for multi-turn conversations
- Added proper ResponseOutputMessage type satisfaction
- Updated tests to cover more providers and multi-turn scenarios
- Moved completed AI package implementation task to done folder
- Task successfully implemented the unified AI API (@mariozechner/pi-ai)
- Package renamed, documentation improved, and published as v0.5.12
- Added note that library only includes tool-calling capable models
- Added Model Discovery section showing how to enumerate models
- Added examples for finding models with specific capabilities
- Added cache read/write costs to model capabilities display
- Clarified that models are auto-fetched from APIs at build time
- Changed package name from @mariozechner/ai to @mariozechner/pi-ai
- Fixed generate-models.ts to fetch from models.dev API instead of local file
- Completely rewrote README with practical examples:
- Image input with base64 encoding
- Proper tool calling with context management
- Streaming with completion indicators
- Abort signal usage
- Provider-specific options (reasoning/thinking)
- Custom model definitions for local/self-hosted LLMs
- Environment variables explanation
- Bumped version to 0.5.9 and published
- Implemented new renderLineBased method that properly handles scrollback boundaries
- Fixed ANSI code preservation in MarkdownComponent line wrapping
- Added comprehensive test to reproduce and verify the fix
- Root cause: PARTIAL rendering strategy couldn't position cursor in scrollback
- Solution: Component-agnostic line comparison with proper viewport boundary handling
Fixed rendering artifact where duplicate bottom borders appeared when components
dynamically shifted positions (e.g., Ctrl+C in agent clearing status container).
Root cause: Container wasn't reporting as "changed" when cleared (0 children),
causing differential renderer to skip re-rendering that area.
Solution: Container now tracks previousChildCount and reports changed when
child count changes, ensuring proper re-rendering when containers are cleared.
- Added comprehensive test reproducing the layout shift artifact
- Fixed Container to track and report child count changes
- All tests pass including new layout shift artifact test
- Add header with slash command and file autocomplete instructions
- Add initial welcome message with detailed feature descriptions
- Import TextComponent for the header
- Make it clearer how to use all the demo features
The demos were not showing any output until user input because:
- Components were added before ui.start() was called
- addChild calls requestRender() but it returns early if \!isStarted
- So no initial render happened until user input triggered one
Now ui.start() triggers an initial render if components exist.
- Move chat application example to test/chat-app.ts
- Move multi-component layout example to test/multi-layout.ts
- Update README to reference example files instead of inline code
- Add proper exit handlers (Ctrl+C) to all examples
- Simplify README by reducing inline code examples
- Add surgical differential rendering as the main feature
- Document the three rendering strategies (surgical, partial, full)
- Add performance metrics documentation
- Simplify component examples to be more concise
- Add comprehensive testing section with VirtualTerminal API
- Include testing best practices and performance testing guidance
- Remove duplicate TextEditor documentation section
