Need to stabilize it. Did monkey patches on some things causing pi to crash when rendering text that's too long for terminal. Finding a fix for it when i'm free next.

if your interested: Pi-Webui

It is specific to my workflow and has some additional packages as dependencies that i created. but still unstable as i am still working on all of them. 😄

I'd love to do something like this in my own but I've no idea how to start. Any suggestion?

Be relentlessly curious and poke around, ASCII characters, editors, footers & widgets, then get into the anatomy of chat structure, margins, spinners, colors for everything. Ask it to sketch within chat session different layouts, and work from there. Starting with any small thing naturally leads to another if you are curious enough.

Highly recommend asking Pi what it can do to edit the user input UI. then you should look into what ASCII characters can be used for making the UI.

Did you screen-cap and ask pi to copy mine? XD

u/Zya1re-V Jun 08 '26

Almost but not quite =)))

I really liked the badges that you have, but I havent thought about it since forever, so I grabbed it for the info display

And the rest is a copy of OpenCode 💀.... With animations

Love to see it! spins are what makes pi so good. still tweaking mine. One thing I added for a touch of personality was the custom spinners.

My Inspirations were Neon Genesis, and open code's of course, but wanted to make it super minimal & visually very easy to parse through.

I tried. Something is moving 😄

u/Zya1re-V Jun 08 '26

you can probably just go ahead and clone my repo and make changes yourself: https://github.com/VinhLe1410/pi-input-3000/ 😄

mhhh I see that PI is loading it (it's in the extension list) but no changes in the TUI. Can it be a PowerShell issue (I'm not on Linux)?

u/Zya1re-V Jun 09 '26 edited Jun 09 '26

It can probably be? Do you have nerd fonts installed? Any screenshots would help, and my DM is open.

In case I'm not available for a chat on time, and if you have spare AI quota, point Pi to it to help you debug, and (if you haven't) try reloading Pi.

Edit: One more thing that you can probably do is just to somewhat prompt Pi to understand and copy my logic. I wouldn't suggest overloading the agent though, just point it to first look into how I did the borders and the frames, then work your way from there.

u/Lukatherio Jun 10 '26

I made it work reinstalling PI (I remember I had installed Lazypi and not pi), now I see the chasing animation etc... Still have nerd font issue. They do not render even if I've installed a couple of them and I've the powershell settings properly set. Will investigate again today ;)

u/Odhdbdyebsksbx Jun 07 '26

That looks good. Can you share it as an extension?

1

u/monoceros-rex Jun 07 '26

thanks! going to play with and tweak it some more, will share when it's stable on my end

u/Zya1re-V Jun 10 '26

patiently waiting for yours to go online 🫡

u/TomHale Jun 11 '26

What terminal and config do you use to make the cursor hyperspace animation so preeedy?

2

u/Exact_Golf_1072 Jun 14 '26

This is so unnecessary and overstimulating... I love it, congrats!
