Claude says:

pi-subagents — Lets Pi delegate work to focused child agents instead of doing everything in one long context. It ships ready-made roles (scout, researcher, worker, reviewer, oracle) that run in isolated sessions, in the foreground or background, and can be steered mid-run. Install it if you want a "second set of eyes" for code review, research, or parallel work without polluting your main conversation.

pi-mcp-adapter — Connects Pi to MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers through a single proxy tool instead of registering every individual tool up front, which normally costs 10,000+ tokens per server. Install it if you want to use MCP servers (browsers, databases, search APIs, etc.) with Pi without burning through your context window.

@narumitw/pi-lsp — Wires real language servers into Pi so it gets actual diagnostics and code actions (not just guesses) across languages like TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, and more. Install it if you want Pi's edits checked against a genuine compiler/linter instead of relying purely on the model's judgment.

pi-agent-browser-native — Exposes browser automation as a native Pi tool (built on the agent-browser project), so the agent can open pages, click around, and inspect results directly instead of shelling out through bash. Install it if your workflows involve interacting with live web pages or web apps.

pi-web-access — Gives Pi web search, URL fetching, GitHub repo cloning, PDF extraction, and YouTube/video understanding, with support for many search providers (Brave, Tavily, Kagi, self-hosted SearXNG, etc.). Install it if you want Pi to research things on the open web as part of its normal workflow.

pi-agent-extensions — A bundle of 17 smaller extensions and themes in one install: session search, structured question-asking, session hand-offs, a status footer, review tooling, and more. Install it as a convenient "starter pack" instead of hunting down and installing each small quality-of-life extension separately.

pi-codex-goal — Adds Codex-style goal tracking: a /goal command plus tools so Pi can track a long-running objective, verify completion, and resume it correctly after a session is reloaded or forked. Install it for long or multi-step tasks where you want the agent to stay anchored to a single, verifiable objective instead of drifting.

context-mode — A context-window optimizer that sandboxes heavy tool output (bash logs, search results, etc.) to files instead of dumping it all into the conversation, cutting context usage substantially, and also persists session memory and enforces consistent tool-output routing. Install it if your Pi sessions are running out of context quickly due to verbose tool output.

pi-hermes-memory — Gives Pi persistent memory across sessions: it remembers facts, corrections, and past failures, supports full-text search over old conversations ("what did we discuss about auth?"), and scans everything it stores for secrets before saving. Install it if you're tired of Pi forgetting everything each time you start a new session.
