Based on #89 by @steipete
Display '✓ logged in' indicator next to providers where the user is already authenticated. This makes it clear at a glance whether you're using your Claude Pro/Max subscription.
Since version 0.9.0, RPC mode (--mode rpc) was not saving messages to
session files. The agent.subscribe() call with session management logic
was only present in the TUI renderer after it was refactored.
RPC mode now properly saves sessions just like interactive mode.
Added test for RPC mode session management to prevent regression.
Fixes#83
Thanks @kiliman for reporting this issue!
Add grep, find, and ls tools for safe code exploration without modification risk.
These tools are available via the new --tools CLI flag.
- grep: Uses ripgrep (auto-downloaded) for fast regex searching. Respects .gitignore,
supports glob filtering, context lines, and hidden files.
- find: Uses fd (auto-downloaded) for fast file finding. Respects .gitignore, supports
glob patterns, and hidden files.
- ls: Lists directory contents with proper sorting and directory indicators.
- --tools flag: Specify available tools (e.g., --tools read,grep,find,ls for read-only mode)
- Dynamic system prompt adapts to selected tools with relevant guidelines
Closes#74
- Replace slow synchronous directory walking with fd for fuzzy file search
- Auto-download fd to ~/.pi/agent/tools/ if not found in PATH
- Performance improved from ~900ms to ~10ms per keystroke on large repos
- Remove minimatch dependency from tui package
- Graceful degradation if fd unavailable (empty results)
Fixes#69
- Footer now displays active git branch after directory path (e.g., ~/project (main))
- Branch detected by reading .git/HEAD directly (fast, synchronous)
- Cache refreshed after each assistant message to detect branch changes
- Handles normal branches, detached HEAD, and non-git repos
Closes#55
Implements ability to include files directly in the initial message using @ prefix.
Features:
- All @file arguments are coalesced into the first user message
- Text files wrapped in <file name="path">content</file> tags
- Images (.jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif, .webp) attached as base64-encoded attachments
- Supports ~ expansion, relative and absolute paths
- Empty files are skipped silently
- Non-existent files cause immediate error with clear message
- Works in interactive, --print, and --mode text/json modes
- Not supported in --mode rpc (errors with clear message)
Examples:
pi @prompt.md @image.png "Do this"
pi --print @code.ts "Review this code"
pi @requirements.md @design.png "Implement this"
Closes#54
- Added timestamps to each user and assistant message (HH:MM:SS format)
- Fixed text clipping issues with comprehensive word-wrapping CSS
- Improved font selection: ui-monospace, Cascadia Code, Source Code Pro
- Reduced font sizes for more compact display (12px base, down from 14px)
- Added model switch indicators in conversation timeline with subtle background
- Created dedicated Tokens & Cost section showing:
- Cumulative input/output/cache read/write tokens
- Cost breakdown by token type with 4 decimal precision
- Total cost in bold
- Context usage with token count, percentage, and model identification
- Now displays all unique models used during session (not just initial model)
- Made Messages section more compact (reduced gaps, removed redundant fields)
Closes#51Closes#52
- Fix line numbers showing incorrect values for edits far from file start
(e.g., 1,2,3 instead of 336,337,338). Skip count was added after displaying
lines instead of before.
- Rewrite splitIntoTokensWithAnsi in pi-tui to preserve whitespace as separate
tokens instead of discarding it. Wrapped lines now maintain proper alignment
and code indentation.
- Update mom README: rename title, remove em-dashes for cleaner prose
In -p, --mode json, and --mode rpc modes, don't print informational
messages like 'Loaded project context from:' or model restore messages.
Only the actual output should be printed.
BREAKING CHANGE: Passing a prompt on the command line now starts interactive
mode with the prompt pre-submitted, instead of exiting after completion.
Use --print or -p to get the previous non-interactive behavior.
- Add --print / -p flag for non-interactive mode
- Update runInteractiveMode to accept initial messages
- Update README documentation
- Fix Model Selection Priority docs to include --models scope
PR #47 enhancements:
- Add thinking level syntax to --models (e.g., --models sonnet:high,haiku:low)
- First model in scope used as initial model when starting new session
- Auto-apply thinking level when cycling models with Ctrl+P
- Save both model and thinking to session AND settings for persistence
- Simplify UX by removing autoThinkingDisabled flag
- Fix model matching to prioritize exact matches over partial
- Support provider/modelId format (e.g., openrouter/openai/gpt-5.1-codex)
Issue #45:
- Add --thinking CLI flag to set thinking level directly
- Takes highest priority over all other thinking level sources
Closes#45
- Add exact match support with '/' prefix (/gpt-5.1-codex or /provider/model)
- Prefer exact ID matches over partial matches in fuzzy search
- Parse thinking levels from --models flag (pattern:level format)
- Use first scoped model as initial model with its thinking level
- Auto-apply thinking when cycling with Ctrl+P
- Track manual thinking changes to disable auto-switching
- Clear model scope when using /model command
- Support mixed configs: --models sonnet:high,haiku,opus:low
- Silently ignore thinking for models that don't support it
- Only allow Ctrl+P cycling when --models is explicitly provided
- Update help text with examples
- Improve code organization by resolving scope early
- Consolidated theme system into single src/theme/ directory
- Created Theme class with fg(), bg(), bold(), italic(), underline()
- Added dark and light built-in themes with 36 color tokens

- Show offset/limit in read tool display (e.g., read src/main.ts:100-200)
- Fix PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR env var name in help and code
- Add all API key env vars to help text
