Pi Mention Skill
Move Pi skill selection from slash autocomplete to $ mentions.
Install
pi install npm:@zigai/pi-mention-skill
Features
- Adds fuzzy skill autocomplete with
$mentions. - Expands mentions such as
$skill-namebefore the model sees the prompt. - Keeps
/skill:*entries out of slash autocomplete by default.
Usage
Type $ in the prompt editor to open skill suggestions, then select a skill.
The selected mention loads the same skill content that /skill:name would have loaded, while keeping skills out of the normal slash command picker.
Configuration
Global settings are stored in ~/.pi/agent/extension-settings/pi-mention-skill.json.
| Option | Type | Default | Description |

string | "$" |
Single character that starts a skill mention. |
hideSlashSkills |
boolean | true |
Hide skill commands from slash-command completion. |
