I have not tried pi! I heard of it, but I didn't look into it because Anthropic is cracking down on third-party harnesses by making them prohibitively expensive. I suppose though now that I have a DeepSeek API key due to Reasonix I can give it a shot. (even the pro model is so cheap!! I've been using it for days on multiple projects and have barely spent $1, and I think it can go much further with better prompting.) As for advice, what kind do you mean? Do you work on Pi?

In 18min , Mario Zechner , the creator of pi will echo more or less your exact concerns as to why he developed it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjfbvDXpFls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjfbvDXpFls Enjoy !

  Good talk! I'm using Claude to clean up Pi a little bit before I try it (porting to PNPM is part of my standard startup checklist); I'm very excited to see how it goes!

No, I just was curious to know how you found Pi; I've got so much from pi + DS4 pro that I think I am done feeling bad about Anthropic limits. The cost is ridiculous, but I wonder if there's even a lower floor with reasonix or DS4-specific pi config

  I saw Pi on the front page of Hacker News a few weeks ago, I think. Anyway, I've been trying it for the past day or so and I must say, this is awesome. The extension functionality in particular is great news at least. But there's a lot more to love that seems to actually have been tastefully crafted by real people; a lot of power-user features that would fly right over most agentic implementers, such as branching on the level of individual tool calls rather than only by user messages as in Claude Code. It feels incredibly good, I am very happy with it.
