@davehardy20/pi-theme-switcher

Pi package for switching TUI themes on the fly.

What it adds

• /theme — interactive theme picker
• /theme <name> — switch directly to a named theme
• /theme-status — show package name, version, source path, active theme, and available themes
• Ctrl+Shift+T — cycle through themes
• switch_theme tool — let Pi change the current theme without reloading
• temporary theme swatch widget after a switch

Install

From git:

pi install git:github.com/davehardy20/pi-theme-switcher

From a local checkout during development:

pi install /Users/dave/tools/pi-theme-switcher

For one run only:

pi -e /Users/dave/tools/pi-theme-switcher

Notes

• Theme switching is available only in the interactive TUI.
• If commands appear twice, Pi is probably loading both this package and the old local agent/extensions/theme-switcher.ts file.
• Disable or remove the old local auto-discovered extension before reload verification.

Update flow

1. update the package repo
2. push to GitHub
3. run pi update --extensions or reinstall the package
4. run /reload

/reload alone does not fetch newer package commits.

Troubleshooting

Run /theme-status to confirm:

• package name
• package version
• loaded source path
• active theme
• visible theme list
