/peek overlay for pi — ask your own session a question without disturbing the main agent.

Opens a centered overlay that serializes the current conversation and streams an answer from the utility model (read-after-burn). The main agent keeps running, completely unaware.

Features

  • Streaming — the answer appears token-by-token as it arrives
  • Auto-height — the message region grows with content up to ~80% of the terminal, then scrolls (↑/↓, auto-follows the tail while streaming)
  • Multi-turn — follow-up questions reuse the serialized context (cheaper, no re-serialization)
  • Live status — header shows what the main agent is doing right now; status line shows the utility model + cumulative tokens
  • Read-after-burn — closing the overlay discards everything; the main session is never touched
