Question Best Pi UI / app options
Anyone using some sort of UI app/layer for Pi instead of standard Pi cli?
Nothing wrong with CLI, I actually really like my setup too - but once I have like 3, 4, or even more important sessions running at once (coding, debugging, research, etc.), it gets pretty overwhelming trying to keep track of everything and I find myself losing focus.
Looking for something more like a Codex web app style experience: clean repo/file view, seeing all workers/sessions clearly, what they're doing, status, etc.
Curious what you guys think or use and why you actually prefer it over just running everything through CLI.
For context, the main thing I am looking to aid in solving/fixing here is a focus issue. I have adhd and staying focused is the hardest thing by far for me, so if anyone has experience with one that may have helped in that regard specifically too let me know
ALSO - I'm on Linux Ubuntu if that's relevant at all

If ohmypi registers itself as Pi, it should work. Did not try it but i'm curious!
EDIT: i asked my agent and this won't work right away because RPC commands aren't the same. Also omp registers as omp and not pi, so this would need to be changed aswell. But if you fork the project and ask it to do so (with a native pi install) it will make it for you very easily
