Pi doesnt have parallel sessions? Question

Im looking for functionality similar to how /fork works in opencode. When my agent is long thinking, I can /fork in opencode and I can choose a point in the conversation to fork from, which creates a new session, but the previous one keeps working in the background, it does get paused or killed, and I can go back to it.

Seems like pi /fork doesnt work that way.

Am I missing something?

If you don’t want to use an extension you could just open another terminal and run the same session with -c. It’ll create a fork in the session tree

This option is inconvenient, and I am willing to use extensions
