pi-copy-block

Grab a code block out of pi's recent replies and put it on your clipboard.

Pi ends a lot of turns with something you're meant to run or paste: a fenced block in its prose, or a bash tool call waiting for approval. Selecting that text with the mouse inside a TUI is fiddly, and it picks up the surrounding borders. /copy-block pulls it out cleanly.

Install

pi install npm:@joelazar/pi-copy-block

Usage

Run /copy-block. The extension scans the last ten assistant replies and gathers from each, in the order they appear:

• the body of every fenced code block in the message text, with the fences and language tag stripped
• the command argument of every bash tool call

One match goes straight to the clipboard. Several open a picker: the list on the left shows each block's first line tagged with its reply (R1 is the latest reply), the pane on the right shows the highlighted block. ←/→ scroll a long block. Navigation follows your tui.select.* keybindings.

If none of the replies has a block, you get a warning and the clipboard is left alone.
