Pi Mcp

Semgrep built with vite+ tested with vitest

My curated Pi distribution: a ready-to-run coding-agent CLI with MCP, LSP, skills, recall, redaction, telemetry, team mode, prompt presets, and other handy extensions prewired.

Built on the @earendil-works/pi-coding-agent SDK. Use the full distribution directly, or install individual @spences10/pi-* packages into your own Pi setup.

Quick start

pnpx my-pi@latest
# or: npx my-pi@latest / bunx my-pi@latest

Two ways to use my-pi

1. Run the full distribution

Use my-pi if you want the complete, opinionated setup:

pnpx my-pi@latest

This is its own CLI wrapper around Pi. Do not install the root package with pi install npm:my-pi.

2. Install individual Pi packages

Most extensions in this repo are also published as normal Pi packages:

pi install npm:@spences10/pi-lsp
pi install npm:@spences10/pi-mcp
pi install npm:@spences10/pi-redact

Use this path if you already have your own Pi setup and only want selected features. Package READMEs are the source of truth for install instructions, commands, configuration, and runtime behavior.

What you get

• Pi-native CLI + SDK wrapper — interactive TUI, print mode, JSON mode, RPC mode, and programmatic runtime creation.
• Project-aware MCP tools — stdio and HTTP/streamable-HTTP servers from mcp.json, scoped so sensitive or noisy tools only load for the projects and orgs where they belong.
• Project-aware skills — discover, enable, disable, import, and sync Pi-native skills, with different skill sets per project.
• LSP tools — diagnostics, hover, definitions, references, and document symbols via language servers.
• Context sidecar — local SQLite storage for oversized tool output, keeping long results searchable without flooding chat context.
• Guardrails — Svelte and coding-preference checks that block configured anti-patterns before agents write them.
• Prompt presets — base presets plus additive prompt layers with per-project persistence.
• Secret safety — redaction plus reminders to use secret-safe environment loading.
• Recall and telemetry — local support for prior-session lookup, evals, latency analysis, and operational debugging.
• Git UI — interactive source-control staging and commit support.
• Team mode — local RPC teammate orchestration with tasks and mailboxes.
• Themes and TUI helpers — visual polish and shared modal primitives.

Requirements

• Node.js >=24.15.0
• pnpm 11 for local development
• Pi authentication via pi auth, provider environment variables, or supported OAuth flows

my-pi uses native node:sqlite through context and telemetry packages. The CLI suppresses Node's expected node:sqlite ExperimentalWarning; standalone package/API consumers own their process warning policy until Node marks it stable.

Common usage

# full TUI
pnpx my-pi@latest

# one-shot print mode
pnpx my-pi@latest "summarize this repo"
pnpx my-pi@latest -P "explicit print mode"

# NDJSON events for scripts/agents
pnpx my-pi@latest --json "list all TODO comments"

# RPC mode for team/agent orchestration
pnpx my-pi@latest --mode rpc

Pi handles model authentication natively. For provider-specific model examples, see the Pi docs and the relevant extension/package README.

Reusable Pi packages

Install the full distribution with pnpx my-pi@latest, or install selected extensions into vanilla Pi:

# Bash/Zsh/Fish
pi install npm:@spences10/pi-{context,lsp,team-mode}
