README

Mention Skills extension

Type $skill-name in the editor to autocomplete and reference discovered skills by name. On submit, $skill-name tokens are replaced with the full path to each skill's SKILL.md.

Install

pi install npm:pi-mention-skills

Usage

  1. Type $ in the editor, then press Tab to open discovered skills.
  2. Continue typing to filter (for example, $com matches $commit).
  3. Press Tab again if needed, then select a suggestion to insert the $skill-name token.
  4. On submit, each known $skill-name is replaced with its full SKILL.md path.

Example

Typing:

Read $commit before making changes

Submits as:

Read /Users/you/.agents/skills/commit/SKILL.md before making changes

Notes

  • Skill discovery reads pi.getCommands() entries where source === "skill" and path is present.
  • Unknown $tokens are left unchanged.
  • $ mention detection follows boundary rules: start of line or preceded by whitespace.
