README

Pi Mode

npm version npm downloads license

This Pi extension adds prompt modes for model and thinking-level switching.

Install

pi install npm:@zigai/pi-mode

Features

  • Adds /mode for selecting and configuring prompt modes.
  • Adds Ctrl+Shift+M to select a mode.
  • Adds Ctrl+Space to cycle modes.
  • Can show the current mode in the prompt editor border when enabled.
  • Colors the prompt editor border from the active mode or thinking level.

Modes can store a provider, model, thinking level, and optional color. Project-local modes live in .pi/modes.json when present; otherwise global modes live in ~/.pi/agent/modes.json.

By default, Pi Mode does not print the mode name in the editor border. To opt in, toggle Show mode name from /mode → Configure modes…, or set "modeShowName": true in global ~/.pi/agent/settings.json or trusted project .pi/settings.json. The /mode toggle writes to global settings.
