pi-resume-remind

A pi extension that reminds users how to resume the current session when quitting.

When a user types exit, quit, or closes a pi session, this extension displays the exact command to resume that session later — no fumbling through session lists.

Features

• Session resume reminders — displays the resume command on quit so you never lose a session
• Idle detection awareness — caches session state at startup for reliable quit-time output
• Context recovery — UUID-based, path-based, and ephemeral session fallback handling
• Session handoff — /resume-remind command shows the resume snippet at any time mid-session
• Zero-config — works out of the box, no configuration required
• Non-blocking — hooks never block shutdown; exceptions are caught and silently handled

Usage

The extension hooks into pi's session lifecycle automatically:

1. On session start — captures the session file path and name
2. On quit — displays:

   To resume session my-project-session
   pi --session 019df945-636f-74ad-a36d-aea65e3055b2
   

3. /resume-remind command — shows the resume command for the current session at any time

Configuration

No configuration required. The extension works automatically on session end.

To disable, add to ~/.pi/config.toml:

[pi-resume-remind]
enabled = false

Architecture

src/
├── index.ts          # Extension entry point, hook registration
├── resume.ts         # Session UUID extraction, resume command formatting
└── commands.ts       # /resume-remind slash command

Session state is cached at session_start and read (never re-fetched) at session_shutdown to avoid blocking on stale or destroyed context.

Development

npm install
npm run check         # typecheck + test
npm run test          # run tests with coverage
npm pack --dry-run    # verify publish contents
