README

@baggiiiie/pi-context-status

A pi package that shows current context-window usage in the status line or a custom footer.

Install

pi install /path/to/pi-stuff/packages/context-status

Or after publishing:

pi install npm:@baggiiiie/pi-context-status

Usage

/context-status status
/context-status footer
/context-status off
/context-status refresh
/context-status help

By default the extension uses compact status mode. Override the startup mode with:

export PI_CONTEXT_STATUS_MODE=footer   # or status / off

Notes

  • Reuses pi's current context-window estimate from ctx.getContextUsage() when available
  • Falls back to a local estimate right after compaction, before pi has fresh context usage
  • Footer mode preserves a line for other extension statuses
