pi-peon-ping0.3.0

pi-peon-ping

A pi coding agent extension for peon-ping sound notifications. Plays themed audio clips on lifecycle events using OpenPeon sound packs (Warcraft III Peon, GLaDOS, Duke Nukem, StarCraft, and more).

Requirements

• pi >= 1.0.0
• An audio player on your system (see Platform support)

Features

Event	Sound category
Session start	session.start — "Ready to work?"
Agent starts working	task.acknowledge — "Work, work."
Tool error	task.error — error sound
Rapid prompts (≥3 in 10s)	user.spam — annoyed voice line
Agent finishes	task.complete — completion sound + desktop notification

• /peon opens a settings panel to toggle sounds, switch packs, adjust volume, and enable/disable individual categories
• /peon install browses the OpenPeon registry: packs in your system language come first, type to search, space to select several
• /peon install defaults downloads the original 10 starter packs
• Browsing installed packs previews each one as you scroll

Installation

Install as a pi package globally:

pi install npm:pi-peon-ping

For project-local installation:

pi install -l npm:pi-peon-ping

To try without installing:

pi -e npm:pi-peon-ping

You can also use the repository URL:

pi install git:github.com/joshuadavidthomas/pi-peon-ping
# or the full URL
pi install https://github.com/joshuadavidthomas/pi-peon-ping

For manual installation:

git clone https://github.com/joshuadavidthomas/pi-peon-ping ~/.pi/agent/extensions/pi-peon-ping

Usage

On first run, the extension will prompt you to install sound packs. You can also install them manually:

/peon install                     # browse and search the registry
/peon install defaults            # the original 10 starter packs
/peon install peon_de stromberg   # specific packs by name

Open the settings panel:

/peon

Platform support

Platform	Player
macOS	afplay (built-in)
Linux	pw-play, paplay, ffplay, mpv, play, or aplay (first found)
WSL	PowerShell MediaPlayer

Remote development

The extension auto-detects SSH sessions, devcontainers, and Codespaces, and routes audio through the peon-ping relay running on your local machine. See the peon-ping remote development docs for relay setup. The relay mode can be configured in /peon settings (auto / local / relay).

Config and data

The extension also picks up existing packs from ~/.claude/hooks/peon-ping/ if you have a Claude Code installation. Config and state are stored in ~/.config/peon-ping/.

Configuration options

Edit ~/.config/peon-ping/config.json or use the /peon settings panel:

Option	Default	Description
default_pack	"peon"	Active sound pack
volume	0.5	Sound volume (0.0–1.0)
enabled	true	Master on/off switch
desktop_notifications	true	Show system notifications on task complete
silent_window_seconds	0	Suppress task.complete for tasks shorter than N seconds
annoyed_threshold	3	Number of rapid prompts to trigger spam detection
annoyed_window_seconds	10	Time window for spam detection
relay_mode	"auto"	Relay mode: "auto", "local", or "relay"

Note: If you have an existing config with active_pack, it will be automatically migrated to default_pack on next load.

Development

bun install            # Install dependencies
bun run test           # Run tests
bun run test:watch     # Run tests in watch mode
bun run typecheck      # Type check

To test the extension locally without conflicting with a globally installed copy:

pi -ne -e ./src/index.ts

-ne disables extension auto-discovery, -e loads only the local source.
