Show HN: Why can't your agent have sweet dreams?

Developer Simar-malhotra09 released pi-sheep v1.0.0, a pi extension installable via `pi install git:github.com/Simar-malhotra09/pi-sheep@v1.0.0` that renders a sheep animation when an agent runs a sleep command such as `sleep 10`. The author credits the implementation solely to deepseek 4.1 pro and asks for pull requests to improve the sheep rendering.

pi install git:github.com/Simar-malhotra09/pi-sheep@v1.0.0

Then run /reload in pi and ask the agent to run sleep 10.

P.S: 'sheep' is a bit of a stretch — if you know of a better way to render it please open a PR :p

Disclaimer: Impl was solely by deepseek 4.1 pro; the idea came to me in a dream.
