pi-chain

/chain for pi coding agent.

It starts a brand-new session and seeds that new session with recent conversation messages from the current session. By default it carries over the last visible user or assistant message. When you pass a number, it carries over that many recent visible user and assistant messages.

Install

From npm:

pi install npm:pi-chain

From git:

pi install git:github.com/egornomic/pi-chain

Usage

Once installed, run:

/chain

Or choose how many recent messages to carry over:

/chain 3

Behavior:

• Finds the last visible user or assistant message by default
• Accepts /chain N to carry over the last N visible user and assistant messages
• Ignores non-conversation entries such as tool results
• Opens a new session with parent-session tracking
• Inserts the carried-over messages into the new session in their original order
• Leaves the editor ready for your next prompt

Example

Current session ends with:

User: What should I tackle first?
Assistant: Start with the schema migration.
User: What comes after that?
Assistant: Roll out the backfill job.

Then you run:

/chain 3

New session starts as:

Assistant: Start with the schema migration.
User: What comes after that?
Assistant: Roll out the backfill job.
User: _you type the next prompt here_

Notes

• /chain without a number behaves like /chain 1.
• Assistant replies keep only visible text.
• User messages keep visible text and images.
• If the current session has no visible user or assistant message yet, the command shows a warning and does nothing.
