Pi is a minimal terminal coding harness. Adapt Pi to your workflows, not the other way around. Customize Pi with extensions, skills, prompt templates, and themes. Bundle them as Pi packages and share via npm or git. Pi ships with powerful defaults but skips features like sub-agents and plan mode. Ask Pi to build what you want, or install a package that does it your way.
Pi is a minimal, hackable terminal harness for building the AI coding agent workflow you actually want.
It keeps the core small and clean, then gives you the freedom to add, modify, or replace almost anything through extensions, skills, and packages. Context management, sub-agents, permissions, custom workflows — you can make it behave exactly how you like.
Pi first caught a lot of attention as the harness underneath @OpenClaw. What’s really striking now is how strongly it’s showing up in the @OpenAI ecosystem. It’s astonishing that Pi and @opencode have roughly similar usage share in OpenAI/Codex production traffic!
