Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

Guide for extending Pi — decide between skills, extensions, prompt templates, themes, context files, or custom models, then create and package them.

Includes nested sub-skills:

  • skill-creator — detailed guidance for creating Pi skills

Installation

pi install git:github.com/tmustier/pi-extensions

Or symlink for local development:

ln -s /path/to/pi-extensions/extending-pi ~/.pi/agent/skills/extending-pi

What it tells the agent

The instruction file, verbatim from the audited commit — this is the text the model reads, and the surface the audit's instruction layer examines. Quoted here so you can judge it without cloning anything.

# Extending Pi

Help the user decide what to build and where to find guidance.

## What to build

| Goal | Build a... | Where |
|------|----------|-------|
| Teach Pi a workflow or how to use a tool/API/CLI | **Skill** | Read `skill-creator/SKILL.md` for detailed guidance |
| Give Pi a new tool, command, or runtime behavior | **Extension** | Read Pi docs: `docs/extensions.md` |
| Reuse a prompt pattern with variables | **Prompt template** | Read Pi docs: `docs/prompt-templates.md` |
| Set project-wide coding guidelines | **Context file** | `AGENTS.md` in project root or `.pi/agent/` — just markdown |
| Change Pi's appearance | **Theme** | Read Pi docs: `docs/themes.md` |
| Add a model or provider | **Custom model** | Read Pi docs: `docs/models.md` (JSON) or `docs/custom-provider.md` (extension) |
| Share any of the above | **Package** | Read Pi docs: `docs/packages.md` |

## Skill vs Extension — the fuzzy boundary

If `bash` + instructions can do it, prefer a **skill** (simpler, no code to maintain). If you need event hooks, typed tools, UI components, or policy enforcement, use an **extension**.

Examples:
- "Pi should know our deploy process" → **Skill** (workflow instructions)
- "Pi should confirm before `rm -rf`" → **Extension** (event interception)
- "Pi should use Brave Search" → **Skill** (instructions + CLI scripts)
- "Pi should have a structured `db_query` tool" → **Extension** (registerTool)

Questions

What does the Extending Pi skill do?

High-performance AI coding agent CLI written in Rust with zero unsafe code

Is Extending Pi safe to install?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean skill reads B.

What can Extending Pi access on my machine?

The audit observed no filesystem, network or shell use at all in its source.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (46a2537504c9), read on 2026-10-10. The repository is watched, and a new audit runs when it changes — this is the first audit.
