# 06.30.2026: PXI Terminal Client and Annotation Summary

> Run PXI as an interactive terminal chat from the Phoenix CLI, review and bulk-delete annotations from project settings, and copy trace IDs from experiment trace details.

# PXI in the Terminal

June 26, 2026

**Available in @arizeai/phoenix-cli 1.6.0+ (beta). Requires a Phoenix server running arize-phoenix 17.12.0+.**

PXI now runs as an interactive chat right in your shell. It is the same server-side
agent that powers the in-browser experience — the CLI connects to a running Phoenix
instance, so model credentials, skills, and permissions stay configured on the server.
Because the agent runs on the server, the CLI requires a Phoenix instance on
**arize-phoenix 17.12.0** or newer.

</video>

Run it without installing anything:

```bash theme={null}
npx -y @arizeai/phoenix-cli pxi
```

Or install the CLI globally and use the `pxi` command directly:

```bash theme={null}
npm install -g @arizeai/phoenix-cli
pxi
```

Point it at your Phoenix instance with environment variables, or pass `--endpoint` and
`--api-key` flags:

```bash theme={null}
export PHOENIX_HOST=http://localhost:6006
pxi
```

* **Pick the model** — `--provider` and `--model` select the model (defaults to Anthropic `claude-opus-4-8`); `--custom-provider-id` targets a custom provider configured under **Settings → Models**

```bash theme={null}
pxi --endpoint http://localhost:6006 --provider OPENAI --model gpt-5.4
```

* **Launch preflight** — on startup the client checks the server's model catalog and credentials, surfacing configuration problems as a clean error before the chat opens (skip with `--skip-model-preflight`)
* **Stay in control** — edits are proposed as accept/reject diffs by default; pass `--bypass-edits` to apply them automatically, or `--enable-web-access` to let PXI consult the web for grounding
* **Saved profiles** — reuse a stored Phoenix CLI connection with `--profile <name>`

**Slash commands** are available in **@arizeai/phoenix-cli 1.6.1+**: type `/clear` to reset
the conversation, `/exit` to quit, or `/help` to list available commands. The input prompt
syntax-highlights command tokens and shows a live completion list as you type.

# Annotation Summary in Project Settings

June 30, 2026

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.14.0+**

Project settings now include an annotations summary showing every annotation name applied
in the project, grouped by what it is attached to.

* **Counts by name** — separate cards for **Span Annotations**, **Trace Annotations**, and **Session Annotations** list each annotation name alongside how many annotations use it
* **Bulk delete by name** — remove every annotation of a given name in one action, optionally restricted to a time range; deletion is gated by project permissions

# Copyable Trace ID in Experiment Trace Details

June 25, 2026

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.12.0+**

The trace details dialog opened from experiment views (compare, list, and table) now shows
the trace ID as a badge with a copy-to-clipboard button, so you can grab the ID for
debugging without leaving the dialog.
