Readme

@fgladisch/pi-persistent-history

Persist Pi prompt input history per project.

Install

pi install npm:@fgladisch/pi-persistent-history

Behavior

Stores history in <project>/.pi/input-history.jsonl
Writes each line with prompt text + Unix timestamp (milliseconds)
Captures prompts from input events (including slash commands)
Skips consecutive duplicates
Reads maxEntries only from ~/.pi/agent/settings.json at persistentHistory.maxEntries (default 250)
Loads and injects history at startup for up/down recall
In non-interactive mode, performs no action

Slash commands

/history-reload — Reload project history file and re-inject entries into editor history
/history-status — Show file path, entry count, maxEntries, and injection status

Settings

Global settings file path: ~/.pi/agent/settings.json.

This extension reads persistentHistory.maxEntries and persistentHistory.showStartupMessage from that file (on startup and /history-reload).

{
  "persistentHistory": {
    "maxEntries": 250,
    "showStartupMessage": true
  }
}

persistentHistory.maxEntries: number of lines kept in project JSONL history (default 250)
persistentHistory.showStartupMessage: show one-line startup notify like [Persistent History] Loaded N entries (max: M) since YYYY/MM/DD, HH:mm from .pi/input-history.jsonl. (default true)
