Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

pi-upgrade

v0.2.1

Published

Pi extension that adds a /upgrade command to self-upgrade pi

Readme

pi-upgrade

A pi extension that adds an /upgrade command for upgrading the core pi-coding-agent CLI to the latest npm release.

Install

pi install npm:pi-upgrade

Or from GitHub:

pi install git:github.com/maxpetretta/pi-upgrade

Usage

/upgrade

Flags:

  • /upgrade --force — reinstall even if already on latest
  • /upgrade --dry-run — show what would run without doing it

After a successful upgrade, the extension shows a 5-second restart countdown and automatically relaunches pi on the current session in interactive TUI mode. In non-interactive modes, it falls back to the normal manual restart message.

What it does

  1. Finds the running pi binary and walks up to its package.json
  2. Detects the package manager from the install path (npm, pnpm, yarn, bun)
  3. Prefers the package manager sibling to the current Node runtime
  4. Checks the npm registry for the latest published version
  5. Runs the appropriate global install command
  6. Automatically relaunches pi on the current session after a successful upgrade when interactive TUI mode is available
  7. Otherwise tells you to restart pi afterward

Why restart?

/reload only reloads extensions, skills, prompts, and themes. The core pi runtime is already loaded in memory, so a process restart is needed to pick up the new version.

Development

This package uses Bun for local development.

bun install
bun run lint
bun run typecheck
bun test
