README
/clear — pi extension
Clear the terminal and start a new session with one command.
Install
pi install npm:pi-ext-clear
(or restart pi, or run /reload, after installing)
Usage
In pi's TUI, type:
/clear
What it does:
- Clears the terminal screen (and scrollback where the terminal supports
\x1b[3J— kitty, iTerm2, WezTerm). - Starts a new session, like the built-in
/new.
How it works
Uses ctx.ui.custom() only to reach pi's real terminal sink so it never writes raw ANSI past the TUI's renderer, then calls ctx.newSession().
