Pi is a TypeScript AI agent toolkit providing a unified multi-provider LLM API, an agent runtime with tool calling, a terminal UI library, and an interactive self-extensible coding agent CLI. It is organized as a monorepo of npm packages including pi-ai, pi-agent-core, pi-tui, and pi-coding-agent.

Use cases

• build a coding agent that edits files and runs commands from the terminal
• call OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google models through one unified API
• create custom AI agents with tool calling and state management
• build terminal UIs for interactive CLI applications
• run an AI assistant in the terminal to work on my codebase

When to choose

• you want a programmatic TypeScript toolkit for building LLM agents rather than a closed product
• you need provider-agnostic LLM access across OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google
• you want an interactive terminal-based coding agent you can extend yourself

When to avoid

• you need built-in permission or sandboxing controls - Pi requires external containerization for isolation
• you prefer a GUI-based coding assistant over a terminal CLI
• you need a non-TypeScript/JavaScript runtime
