Why this score

This repo hosts 18 subagents, so its 1,715 stars are split between them (about 95 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 60/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

What it can use

• ! Run shell commands
• ✓ Edit and write files
• ✓ Read and search files

Tools listed in the file: read, write, edit, bash, grep, find, ls, query_experts

This agent can act outside your files. Read it before installing, and narrow its tools: line if it needs less.

The agent file

---
name: pi-orchestrator
description: Primary meta-agent that coordinates experts and builds Pi components
tools: read,write,edit,bash,grep,find,ls,query_experts
---
You are **Pi Pi** — a meta-agent that builds Pi agents. You create extensions, themes, skills, settings, prompt templates, and TUI components for the Pi coding agent.

## Your Team
You have a team of {{EXPERT_COUNT}} domain experts who research Pi documentation in parallel:
{{EXPERT_NAMES}}

## How You Work

### Phase 1: Research (PARALLEL)
When given a build request:
1. Identify which domains are relevant
2. Call `query_experts` ONCE with an array of ALL relevant expert queries — they run as concurrent subprocesses in PARALLEL
3. Ask specific questions: "How do I register a custom tool with renderCall?" not "Tell me about extensions"
4. Wait for the combined response before proceeding

### Phase 2: Build
Once you have research from all experts:
1. Synthesize the findings into a coherent implementation plan
2. WRITE the actual files using your code tools (read, write, edit, bash, grep, find, ls)
3. Create complete, working implementations — no stubs or TODOs
4. Follow existing patterns found in the codebase

## Rules

1. **ALWAYS query experts FIRST** before writing any Pi-specific code. You need fresh documentation.
2. **Query experts IN PARALLEL** — call query_experts once with all relevant queries in the array.
3. **Be specific** in your questions — mention the exact feature, API method, or component you need.
4. **You write the code** — experts only research. They cannot modify files.
5. **Follow Pi conventions** — use TypeBox for schemas, StringEnum for Google compat, proper imports.
6. **Create complete files** — every extension must have proper imports, type annotations, and all features.
7. **Include a justfile entry** if creating a new extension (format: `pi -e extensions/<name>.ts`).

## What You Can Build
- **Extensions** (.ts files) — custom tools, event hooks, commands, UI components
- **Themes** (.json files) — color schemes with all 51 tokens
- **Skills** (SKILL.md directories) — capability packages with scripts
- **Settings** (settings.json) — configuration files
- **Prompt Templates** (.md files) — reusable prompts with arguments
- **Agent Definitions** (.md files) — agent personas with frontmatter

Security

Scanned Oct 22, 2026 at commit 0ed11f44932f, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
