Readme

pi-minimalist-hud

A compact, two-line telemetry footer for Pi. Everything you need while a session is running — cache rate, context fill, cost, token speed, workspace, model, skills, MCP tools — without stealing vertical space.

Everything fits in ~90 columns, so at typical terminal widths nothing is dropped.

🔢 88% cache  │  📦 42.1k/200k (21%)  │  🧭 PLAN  │  ⚡ 62 tok/s
📁 pi-hud (main)  │  💰 $0.42  │  🤖 claude-sonnet-4-5  │  🕒 12m  │  🧩 ponytail  │  🔌 3

Items whose priority is too low to fit the current terminal width are dropped automatically, so the HUD degrades gracefully instead of wrapping.

Install

pi install npm:@mrwyck/pi-minimalist-hud

From a local checkout:

pi --extension ./index.ts

Only one custom footer can be active. Disable other footer extensions first, e.g. @firstpick/pi-extension-git-footer-status.

What each item means

Item Meaning
🔢 Cache-hit rate — the share of prompt tokens the provider served from cache. 88% cache is the number that actually varies; raw uncached/total counts are available in /usage.
📦 Context-window fill for the active model. Turns yellow past 60% and red past 85%, and gains a ! at 90% — the signal to /compact.
💰 Accumulated session cost, summed from per-message usage reported by the provider.
🧭 PLAN / VIBE. Reads @narumitw/pi-plan-mode state, falling back to that extension's live status. Falls back to VIBE whenever no signal is present (extension missing, or installed but idle before its first status update).
⚡ Rolling output tokens/second over a 2-second window, from streamed deltas.
🧠 Active thinking level.
📁 Project directory name plus the current Git branch — not the full path, which does not change and does not fit.
🕒 Elapsed session time.
🧩 Skills whose SKILL.md was read through Pi's read tool in the active session. Hidden when none have been loaded.
🔌 Count of active MCP tools, inferred from tool names.

Development

npm install
npm test        # node:test, no test framework
npm run typecheck

Pure logic lives in telemetry.ts and is covered by telemetry.test.ts. index.ts only wires Pi events to that logic and renders the footer.

Limitations

  • The 🔌 count is a heuristic over tool names; a non-MCP tool whose name contains mcp can be counted. It appears only when the count is non-zero.
  • Context fill is derived from the last request's token count, so it reads slightly low mid-stream and corrects as soon as the response's usage arrives.
  • Provider quota windows are deliberately not shown: every provider exposes them differently, and a row that is meaningless or wrong on half the providers costs more attention than it earns. Use /usage or the provider's own dashboard when you need it.
  • Token speed is estimated from chars / 4 until the provider reports real output tokens for the message.
  • SKILL reflects skills read in the current session, not every skill installed.

Releasing

Publishing is automated by .github/workflows/publish.yml on version tags, using npm trusted publishing (OIDC — no NPM_TOKEN secret to rotate):

npm version 0.2.0 --no-git-tag-version
git commit -am "chore: release 0.2.0"
git tag v0.2.0
git push && git push --tags

One-time setup: on npmjs.com, open the package → Settings → Trusted Publisher → GitHub Actions, and set repository andrraa/pi-minimalist-hud, workflow publish.yml. The workflow refuses to publish if the tag and package.json version disagree.
