Pi Shazam

Codebase awareness toolkit for the Pi coding agent — 7 structural analysis tools powered by tree-sitter and LSP that give your agent deep understanding of any project.

Installation

Two ways to use pi-shazam, depending on your agent:

Native Extension — Pi Coding Agent only

For the Pi coding agent. Installs as a first-class extension — tools appear alongside read/write/bash with no distinction.

pi install npm:pi-shazam

MCP Server — all other AI agents

For Kimi Code, CodeBuddy, Qwen Code, Claude, Codex, Qoder, Trae, and any MCP-compatible client.

Analysis Tools

Tool	When to use	What it does
shazam_overview	First entry, need project structure	Project summary: top files, dependencies, hotspots, entry points, key data structures
shazam_lookup	Need symbol details or concept search	Unified lookup + fuzzy concept search ("how is X implemented")
shazam_impact	Before editing shared or exported modules	Blast radius analysis — every file, symbol, and test affected by a change
shazam_verify	After every write or edit	Post-edit verification: LSP diagnostics with auto-detection of unreliable servers, graph analysis, PASS/WARN/FAIL
shazam_changes	After edits to see what changed	Git change summary with symbol-level detail, risk level, affected callers
shazam_format	When shazam_verify reports format errors	Auto-fix formatting (prettier, biome, eslint, ruff, cargo fmt, gofmt)
shazam_rename_symbol	Before renaming any symbol	LSP cross-file symbol rename with atomic writes

Slash Commands

Setup and hook installation run automatically on session start. No manual setup commands needed.

Command	When	Purpose
