Pi Island supports slash commands with autocompletion.

Using Commands

  1. Type / to see available commands
  2. Use arrow keys to navigate the dropdown
  3. Press Tab or Enter to select a command
  4. Press Escape to dismiss the dropdown

Built-in Commands

Common commands include:

CommandDescription
/helpShow available commands
/modelCycle or switch models
/thinkingControl thinking/reasoning level
/compactCompact context to reduce tokens

Extension Commands

Pi extensions can register their own slash commands. For example:

/synthetic:quotas    # Check API quotas (synthetic extension)

All extension commands appear in the completion dropdown automatically.

How Commands Work

  1. Pi Island fetches available commands from Pi via get_commands RPC
  2. Commands appear in a completion dropdown as you type
  3. When you submit, Pi executes the command internally
  4. Output appears in the chat (for extensions using ctx.ui.notify())
