This looked interesting because I prefer rust over npm.

The first issue I had was to figure out the schema of the models.json, as someone who hadn't used the original pi before. Then I noticed the documented `/skill:` command doesn't exist. That's also hard to see because the slash menu is rendered off screen if the prompt is at the bottom of the terminal. And when I see it, the selected menu items always jumps back to the first line, but looks like he fixed that yesterday.

The tool output appears to mangle the transcript, and I can't even see the exact command it ran, only the output of the command. The README is overwhelmingly long and I don't understand what's important for me as a first time user and what isn't. Benchmarks and code internals aren't too terribly relevant to me at this point.

I looked at the original pi next and realized the config schema is subtly different (snake_case instead of camelCase). Since it was advertised as a port, I expected it to be a drop-in replacement, which is clearly not the case.

All in all it doesn't inspire confidence. Unfortunate.

Edit: The original pi also says that there is a `/skill` command, but then it is missing in the following table: https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/tree/main/packages/codin...

The `/skill` command also doesn't seem registered when I use pi. What is going on? How are people using this?

Edit2: Ah, they have to be placed in `~/.pi/agent/skills`, not `~/.pi/skills`, even though according to the docs, both should work: https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/tree/main/packages/codin...

This is exhausting.

If you look at that code it’s possibly the worst rust code I’ve seen in my life. There are several files with 5000 to 10000 lines of code in a single file.

It looks 100% vibe coded by someone who’s a complete neophyte.

Fwiw @dicklesworthstone / jeff Emanuel is definitely my favorite dragon rider right now, doing the most with AI, to the most effect.

Their agent mail was great & very early in agent orchestration. Code agent search is amazing & will tell you what's happening in every harness. Their Franktui is a ridiculously good rust tui. They have project after project after project after project and they are all so good.

Didn't know they had a rust Pi. Nice.
