README

pi-gpui

/gpui for pi: continue the session you have open in the terminal in Pi GPUI, the native desktop app for pi on macOS and Linux, written in Rust with GPUI.

Pi GPUI

Install

pi install npm:pi-gpui

The app, if you don't have it yet:

brew install --cask bytesbay/tap/pi-gpui            # macOS
curl -fsSL https://pi-gpui.dev/install.sh | sh      # Linux

Use

Type /gpui in pi. This pi exits, and the same session opens in Pi GPUI with its project in the sidebar. Without a saved session (--no-session), the project opens there with a new session.

The terminal pi exits first because pi does not protect a session file from two writers.

Needs Pi GPUI 0.1.10 or newer on macOS, 0.2.0 or newer on Linux. Any tool can do the same with a link:

open "pi-gpui://open?workspace=/path/to/project&session=/path/to/session.jsonl"      # macOS
pi-gpui "pi-gpui://open?workspace=/path/to/project&session=/path/to/session.jsonl"   # Linux
