Readme

@agnishc/edb-ask-user

A Pi CLI extension that registers an ask_user tool — lets the LLM ask the user structured questions directly in the terminal UI without an extra model round-trip.

Question types

Type	UI	Use when
`text`	Inline editor	Free-form answer needed
`choice`	Numbered option list	Picking from a known set

Mix both types freely in one call. Single questions show a focused UI; multiple questions show a tabbed wizard with a Submit review tab.

Install

pi install npm:@agnishc/edb-ask-user

Features

No extra LLM call — answers are collected immediately and returned to the model
allowOther on choice questions — adds a "Type something" option that opens an inline editor
Multi-step wizard — tab bar with answered/unanswered indicators and a Submit review tab
Pre-filled answers — revisiting a tab restores the previously entered value

Example

{
  "questions": [
    { "id": "env",     "label": "Environment", "type": "choice",
      "prompt": "Deploy to which environment?",
      "options": [{ "value": "dev", "label": "Development" }, { "value": "prod", "label": "Production" }] },
    { "id": "message", "label": "Message",     "type": "text",
      "prompt": "Describe this deployment:" }
  ]
}
