README
@ryan_nookpi/pi-extension-auto-name
This extension automatically names a pi session based on the first user message.
It helps you quickly recognize what each session is about when many tasks are open at once.
Install
pi install npm:@ryan_nookpi/pi-extension-auto-name
Great for
- quickly understanding what a session is about
- avoiding manual naming with
/name - showing the current task clearly in the terminal title and status area
How it works
- It reads the first user message and generates a short session name.
- The generated name is applied to the session name, status area, and terminal title.
- If a session already has a name, it does not overwrite it.
- It skips automatic naming for subagent sessions.
Example
If the first request is something like Prepare a pre-release checklist, pi can automatically turn that into a short session title.
