How much have you mucked with `pi`? I love the "zero overhead" aspect of the short agent/system prompt, but I can just imagine the waiting and potential dead-end's it'd get itself into if I just let it rip on a random task.
I have used it almost daily for the last few months, with only 3 simple extensions. On this project I spent a few minutes adding context to an AGENTS.md and having it write a todo list based on the spec, then I start a new chat for each task on the list. Most changes are just a few lines of code so it is very quick to review. But this a very small website project though.
