- Strip carriage return characters from bash tool output to fix background padding on Windows
- Add hidden /debug command to write rendered lines to debug log for TUI debugging
- Document /debug command in README.md development section
- Add build:binary script for Bun compilation
- Add paths.ts for cross-platform asset resolution (npm/bun/tsx)
- Add GitHub Actions workflow for automated binary releases
- Update README with installation options
Based on #89 by @steipete
Add npm script to build a standalone binary using Bun's bytecode compilation.
The binary is ~30% faster than Node.js for CLI operations.
Benchmark results (10 runs, simple query):
- Bun Bytecode Binary: 1.82s avg
- Bun runtime: 2.09s avg
- Node.js: 2.59s avg
Startup time only (--help):
- Bun Bytecode: 0.049s (3.8x faster than Node)
- Bun runtime: 0.121s
- Node.js: 0.185s
Usage: npm run build:binary
Output: dist/pi-binary
Requires Bun 1.3+ for bytecode compilation support.
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
- Up/down arrows now navigate visual (wrapped) lines instead of logical lines
- Fixed double cursor display at wrap boundaries
- Added word by word navigation via Option+Left/Right or Ctrl+Left/Right
- Updated README keyboard shortcuts documentation
Closes#61
- 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
- Type @ to fuzzy-search files/folders across project
- Respects .gitignore and skips hidden files
- Pure Node.js implementation using readdir with withFileTypes
- No external dependencies (fd/find) required
- Also optimized Tab completion to use withFileTypes instead of statSync
Based on PR #60 by @fightbulc, reimplemented for performance.
Fixed crash when rendering text containing emojis followed by long content.
The breakLongWord function was iterating over UTF-16 code units instead of
grapheme clusters, causing emojis (surrogate pairs) to be miscounted during
line wrapping. Now uses Intl.Segmenter to properly handle multi-codepoint
characters.
Removed confusing parenthetical that suggested context files aren't loaded when continuing/resuming sessions. They are always freshly loaded from disk at startup - the parenthetical only applied to console logging behavior.
