README

Pix

Pix gives Pi wings for everyday coding.

Practical tools and thoughtful defaults, in one Pi package.

Install

Requires Pi and Node.js 22+.

pi install npm:@brooktang/pi-x

Restart Pi. Your usual Pi workflow stays the same.

pi install git:github.com/MisterBrookT/pi-x

Or paste this into your coding agent:

Help me install Pix from https://github.com/MisterBrookT/pi-x. Verify that Pi and Node.js 22+ are available, install Pix using the documented Pi command, and do not change unrelated Pi configuration.

About

Pix is a focused package for people who like Pi's simplicity but don't want to assemble their everyday setup from scratch. It brings web research, bounded delegation, background work, and a more comfortable editor together—without replacing Pi or turning it into a broad automation framework.

Pix is under active development. macOS and Linux are supported; Windows is not yet verified. Language servers and computer use require separate setup.

What you get

  • Practical tools. Web search and source retrieval, parallel subagents, and optional language-server diagnostics and fixes.
  • Less babysitting. Visible todos, structured questions, background jobs that wake the agent when finished, and opt-in goal mode for unfinished work.
  • A more comfortable editor. Inline history suggestions, optional AI completion, list continuation, and compact pasted text and images.
  • Control over the setup. One tool panel, context inspection, and a configurable footer. Computer use and MCP start off.

Start here

Use Pi normally—Pix's enabled tools are available to the agent as needed. A few controls worth knowing:

Command Use it to
/tool Choose which tools are enabled
/goal Fix the failing tests Keep working toward an explicit goal, within a continuation limit
/complete on Enable cloud-model inline completion; off by default
/context See what is filling the context window

See the full guide for all commands, configuration, and limits.

Use /login pix-anthropic, then select a model under pix-anthropic.

This is an unofficial compatibility transport. Anthropic may change or reject it, and using it may risk account restriction. Pi's native anthropic provider remains unchanged and uses Anthropic's third-party extra-usage billing. Use that provider if the subscription-transport risk is unacceptable.
