Pi UI Tweaks

This Pi extension collects small configurable UI tweaks that are too tiny to deserve standalone packages.

Install

pi install npm:@zigai/pi-ui-tweaks

Or install the full tweak bundle:

pi install git:github.com/zigai/pi-tweaks

Tweaks

• autocompleteAboveInput renders editor autocomplete menus above the input box, keeping the input box anchored while slash-command suggestions are open.
• bashExecPromptSpacing inserts a space after ! when starting bash exec mode from an empty prompt, so commands appear as ! code ..
• anchorInputToBottom pads short Pi screens with blank rows above the input/footer area, keeping the input at the terminal bottom.
• compactModelSelector removes extra blank spacer rows from the model picker.
• hideAutocompleteScrollInfo hides autocomplete count footers like (1/38).
• hideModelChangeStatus hides redundant Model: <id> status lines after changing models.
• hideModelProviderHint hides Pi's built-in Only showing models from configured providers. Use /login to add providers. model picker hint.
• hideSlashCommandSourceTags hides source tags like [u:npm:@plannotator/pi-extension] from slash command autocomplete descriptions.
• highlightSelectedModelProvider highlights the selected model row's provider badge in the model picker.
• inputPromptPrefix changes the marker used by single-line input boxes. A trailing space is added automatically when omitted.
• neutralBorderColor renders Pi border lines with the normal text color instead of the theme border color.
• restoreContentAfterAutocompleteClose forces a clean redraw after above-input autocomplete closes, so content moves back down instead of leaving blank rows.
• selectedOptionPrefix changes the marker used for selected rows in selector UIs. A trailing space is added automatically when omitted.
