# Pi Status Bridge Noctalia plugin This Noctalia v4 plugin is deliberately **presentation-only**. It renders state supplied through its `plugin:pi-status-bridge` IPC handler and opens its panel with `pluginApi.togglePanel`. Use `pi-status-bridge-client` to query the owner-only Unix bridge socket. A local integration script should translate responses and events into the plugin IPC handler's `setBridgeState(state, projectLabel, attentionCount, detail)` call. The plugin never starts Pi, opens TCP, chooses a worktree silently, or approves extension requests. Install/register it through Noctalia's normal plugin workflow, then add its bar widget in Noctalia settings.
