README

(Beta) The ultimate AI coding harness on top of pi.dev.
Goal
Ship a production-grade coding harness where the agent:
- uses compressed context before raw tool spam,
- stays concise and deterministic in output style,
- remains easy to extend with skills and extensions.
Included skills (upstream repositories)
| Skill | Upstream repo | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| caveman | juliusbrussee/caveman | Ultra-compressed response style for token-efficient, high-signal communication. |
| compress | juliusbrussee/caveman | Compresses memory/context files into caveman format while preserving technical content. |
| lean-ctx | yvgude/lean-ctx | Context runtime and compression toolkit for reads/search/shell/edit flows. |
| context7-cli | upstash/context7 | Pulls current library docs and manages Context7 skills/config from CLI. |
| emil-design-eng | emilkowalski/skill | UI/design craftsmanship guidance: interaction polish, motion, and component quality. |
| scrapling-official | D4Vinci/Scrapling | Official Scrapling skill for web extraction/scraping with adaptive parsing, JS rendering, stealth fetchers, and anti-bot handling. |
Runtime guardrail extension

lean-ctxavailability. - Blocks built-ins (
read,write,edit,grep,find,ls, rawbash) whenlean-ctxexists. - Allows shell only via
lean-ctx -c <command>. - Adds status commands:

Design choices (concise)
Lean-ctx-first execution
Reason: cut context/token waste and keep tool usage structured.Caveman-by-default response style
Reason: short, exact, low-noise outputs for coding loops.Policy in system prompt + enforcement in extension
Reason: prompt sets intent; extension guarantees behavior.Skill-based composition
Reason: easy to swap/upgrade capabilities without rewiring core package.Model-agnostic compression path
Reason:compressskill calls PI CLI, so provider/model can change per environment.
Use locally
From repo root:
pi install . -l
Then restart PI or run /reload.
