pi-prompt-suggestions

Pi extension that suggests a natural next prompt after an agent response.

Disclaimer: this is clanker slop.

Behavior:

• Generate a short next-prompt suggestion after agent_end.
• Show it as ghost text in the input editor by default.
• Optionally show it below the input editor.
• Accept it with Right Arrow when the editor is empty.
• Submit it immediately with Enter when the editor is empty.
• Optionally accept it with Tab when the editor is empty.
• Leave Tab/autocomplete behavior unchanged unless acceptTab is enabled.
• Reject common bad model outputs such as questions, meta text, labels, errors, markdown formatting, evaluative replies, and overlong suggestions.

Install

From GitHub:

pi install git:github.com/SteelDynamite/pi-prompt-suggestions@master

Latest release tag currently points to the older below-editor implementation:

pi install git:github.com/SteelDynamite/[email protected]

After npm publishing:

pi install npm:[email protected]

Configuration

By default, suggestions use the active Pi model.

Optional global config:

~/.pi/agent/extensions/prompt-suggestions.json

Optional project config:

.pi/prompt-suggestions.json

Project config overrides global config.

{
  "enabled": true,
  "acceptTab": false,
  "display": "ghost",
  "model": "openai/gpt-5-mini",
  "maxTokens": 256,
  "maxChars": 80
}

acceptTab defaults to false. When true, Tab accepts the visible suggestion into an empty editor without submitting; this can steal Tab from autocomplete while a suggestion is visible.

display can be ghost or belowEditor; default is ghost.

model uses provider/modelId. If omitted or invalid, the extension falls back to the active Pi model.

The suggestion-generation system prompt lives in prompts/suggestion-system-prompt.md. Edit that file if you want to change the generation instructions before packaging/installing from source.

See docs/plan.md for the implementation plan.
