 ## Install
 
 ```sh
-pi install git:github.com/gee666/pi-watcher
+pi install npm:oira666_pi-watcher
 ```
 
 Then restart Pi or run `/reload`. Requires Node.js **22.19+** and the modular Pi installation. Tested against **Pi 1.0.4**; the child launcher depends on that version's package-manager loading interfaces. Standalone compiled Pi binaries are not supported.

+It uses the inherited file reader for session history. The prompt explicitly distinguishes the authoritative main transcript from Watcher's own session file: `PI_SESSION_FILE` and `PI_SESSION_ID` in Watcher's shell refer to Watcher, not the main agent. It reads the supplied main path directly rather than searching session directories. The prompt tells it to read **only session files and live tool data** by default—not source code, tests, git, or other checks. It must not redo or verify the main agent's work unless you specifically ask. The same rule applies even though inherited tools remain available.
 
 The live tracker keeps at most **64 in-flight calls**, each with tiny previews. It stores no transcript or full tool results, uses no polling timer, and deletes a call immediately when it ends. Completed history belongs in Pi's session file. Live text/model streams without tool calls are not recorded by the tracker.
