+/**
+ * My Rainbow Editor Extension for pi
+ *
+ * This extension provides a custom TUI editor component for the pi coding agent.
+ * It takes the rendered lines of the default editor and applies a continuous 
+ * rainbow color pattern to all characters. To prevent the TUI from breaking, 
+ * it safely ignores and preserves existing ANSI escape codes (such as cursor 
+ * placement and text selection sequences) during the colorization process.
+ *
+ * Usage: pi --extension ./my-rainbow-editor.ts
