pi-coder-theme

Pi Coder Theme UI for Pi: a Pi Coder Theme dark theme, rounded editor chrome, synchronized thinking-level colors, compact user messages, and bundled compact tool rendering.

Install

pi install npm:pi-coder-theme

Set the theme in Pi settings, or in ~/.pi/agent/settings.json:

{
  "theme": "pi-coder-theme-dark"
}

If npm:pi-tool-display is installed separately, remove it. pi-coder-theme already bundles it.

Includes

• pi-coder-theme-dark theme
• Pi Coder Theme editor chrome with context, cost, ChatGPT subscription quota, model, thinking level, cwd, branch, and git change summary
• Working status integrated into the editor status row, with git changes kept on the right
• Compact Pi Coder Theme user messages with thinking-level color sync
• Structured thinking-step display for visible assistant reasoning
• Bundled pi-tool-display

Structured thinking display turns visible provider reasoning into terminal-native steps while preserving the original reasoning text. If Pi's assistant-message internals are incompatible with this package version, pi-coder-theme warns and leaves Pi's native thinking renderer in place for that session.

ChatGPT quota display appears only for OpenAI/Codex models authenticated through Pi's subscription/OAuth login. It consumes subscription usage updates from @marckrenn/pi-sub-core, keeps the existing compact 5h … / W … editor label, and refreshes through sub-core on the chatGptQuota.refreshMinutes interval from config.json (default 5 minutes). API-key sessions and unsupported providers do not show quota usage.
