 A web interface for the [pi coding agent](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono). Browse sessions, chat with the agent, fork conversations, and navigate message branches — all in the browser.
 
-## Quick start (no install)
-
-```bash
-npx @agegr/pi-web@latest
-```
-
-Open [http://localhost:30141](http://localhost:30141).
-
-The package ships with prebuilt Next.js artifacts, so `npx` can launch it directly — no local build step needed.
-
-> The `@latest` tag bypasses npx's local cache and ensures you always run the newest published version. Omit it (`npx @agegr/pi-web`) to reuse whatever version is already cached.
-
-## Global install (optional)
-
-If you want a permanent `pi-web` command on your PATH:
+## Installation
 
 ```bash
 npm install -g @agegr/pi-web
 pi-web
 ```
 
-## Options
+Open [http://localhost:30141](http://localhost:30141).
 
-All options apply to both `npx @agegr/pi-web` and `pi-web`:
+Options:
 
 ```bash
-npx @agegr/pi-web --port 8080               # custom port
-npx @agegr/pi-web --hostname 127.0.0.1      # local-only access
-npx @agegr/pi-web -p 8080 -H 127.0.0.1      # combined

+pi-web --hostname 127.0.0.1      # local-only access
+pi-web -p 8080 -H 127.0.0.1     # combined
 
-PORT=8080 npx @agegr/pi-web                 # env var also works
