Git-style prompt stashing for pi.

Save what you're typing, clear the editor, and come back to it later.

pi install npm:@ctogg/pi-stash

Try it for a single session without adding it to your settings:

pi -e npm:@ctogg/pi-stash

To install into the current project only (writes to .pi/settings.json):

pi install -l npm:@ctogg/pi-stash

Then /reload in pi (or restart).

Clone the repo and symlink the extension into your global extensions directory:

git clone https://github.com/cristeahub/pi-stash
cd pi-stash
ln -s "$(pwd)/prompt-stash.ts" ~/.pi/agent/extensions/prompt-stash.ts

Make sure the npm-installed version is removed first (pi remove npm:@ctogg/pi-stash) so you don't load two copies.
