The inactive area shows `[tab]` in its border.\n\n## Configure the Quake key\n\nUse an env var:\n\n```bash\nPI_SIDEQUEST_QUAKE_KEY='`'\n```\n\nor a config file:\n\n```json\n// ~/.pi/agent/sidequest.json\n{\n  \"quakeKey\": \"`\"\n}\n```\n\nMultiple keys are supported:\n\n```bash\nPI_SIDEQUEST_QUAKE_KEYS='§,~,alt+s'\n```\n\n```json\n{\n  \"quakeKeys\": [\"§\", \"~\", \"alt+s\"]\n}\n```\n\n## Tools\n\nSidequest runs its own isolated, tool-capable Pi worker. By default it enables:\n\n```text\nread, grep, find, ls, sidequest_web_search, sidequest_web_fetch\n```\n\nOverride the allowlist:\n\n```bash\nPI_SIDEQUEST_TOOLS='read,grep,find,ls,sidequest_web_search,sidequest_web_fetch'\n```\n\n`sidequest_web_search` uses Brave Search when `BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY` is set. Otherwise it falls back to DuckDuckGo HTML search. `sidequest_web_fetch` fetches public HTTP(S) pages and extracts readable text.\n\n## Publish\n\nFrom this directory:\n\n```bash\nnpm pack --dry-run\nnpm publish\n```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpeterp%2Fpi-sidequest","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpeterp%2Fpi-sidequest","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpeterp%2Fpi-sidequest/lists"}
