README
pi-execution-time
pi package that adds a live task execution timer to the footer.
The timer starts when a prompt begins running and counts up until the agent finishes. It renders as a compact status item in the bottom bar next to pi's built-in cost and context usage indicators.

pi install https://github.com/lukaspanni/pi-execution-time
From npm after publishing:

Usage
Reload or restart pi after installation. When the agent is working, the footer shows a live timer:
