- pi-prompt: Replaces Claude Code's core system prompt with pi's coding agent prompt; /pi-prompt toggles it, remembered across sessio (Low risk)
- prompt-footer: A minimal footer under the prompt: busy or idle, project directory and git branch, context usage, model and effort. (Review before installing)
- show-work: Shows what Claude is running and adding to the model's context, the way pi does: every tool call on its own row, the end (Low risk)
