Authoritative reference for Pi (`@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent`): install, configure, run, and extend. Use when the user asks about Pi CLI/flags/commands, providers/models/auth, settings/compaction/sessions, security/trust, extensions, skills, prompt templates, themes, packages, custom providers, TUI components, the SDK, RPC mode, or JSON streaming. Also use for Pi's design philosophy and opinionated choices (why minimal, 4 tools, YOLO, no MCP/plan mode/to-dos/sub-agents) and the creator Mario Zechner's coding-agent blog post.

What this skill does
Pi Dev Rules Pi is a minimal terminal coding harness: lightweight core, extended through TypeScript customizations. Package: @earendil-works/pi-coding-agent. Maintained by Earendil Inc. (MIT). This skill mirrors the official docs at <https://pi.dev/docs/latest> so you can answer Pi questions and build Pi customizations without re-fetching. When to use this skill Installing, authenticating, or launching Pi; explaining CLI flags / slash commands. Configuring providers, API keys, custom models (models.json), or proxies. Editing settings.json, keybindings, themes; understanding sessions & compaction. Understanding the project-trust security model and running Pi in containers/sandboxes. Extending Pi: writing extensions, skills, prompt templates, packages, custom providers, TUI UI. Checking Pi's version history / what changed in a recent release. Driving Pi programmatically via the SDK, RPC mode, or JSON event-stream mode. Setting up Pi on Windows/Termux/tmux/specific terminals, or building it from source. Understanding why Pi is designed the way it is: the creator's philosophy (minimal core, 4 tools, YOLO by default, no MCP/plan mode/to-dos/sub-agents) and how to configure/extend Pi along those lines instead of against them.
