install
pi install npm:@versot/vaguspi## TL;DR
A web GUI that reads and writes the same ~/.pi/agent configuration as the pi CLI — chat with visible thinking and tool-call cards, resumable session history, provider and model management, built-in MCP, and token/cost usage stats.
## Key points
- $Shares the CLI's ~/.pi/agent configuration — models, sessions, packages, and settings — so browser and terminal stay in sync and data stays on your machine.
- $Chat streams responses with visible thinking, tool-call cards, and multi-turn conversations; session history uses the real pi session files and can be resumed from either side, with long conversations lazy-loading as you scroll.
- $Model management configures providers (API type, base URL, key, model list, reasoning level) with live credential checks.
- $MCP servers work per-session without a separate adapter package; the / palette lists pi commands, extension commands, skills, and templates.
- $Usage stats roll up tokens and cost across all sessions.
## FAQ
Q Do I have to install anything?
No — Node.js 22 or newer plus `npx @versot/vaguspi web` starts the UI on local port 19707; installing as a pi package (`pi install npm:@versot/vaguspi`) adds a `pi-web web` launcher.
Q Does it work alongside the terminal?
Yes — it reads and writes the same ~/.pi/agent configuration the CLI uses, and sessions are real pi session files that can be resumed from either side.
