## OmniRoute — LLM Provider Router

OmniRoute is the central LLM routing proxy running on .13 (port 20128/20129). All three machines route pi's LLM requests through it.

| Aspect | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| **What it is** | Docker-based LLM proxy with **combo routing** — you define a prioritized list of providers and it tries them in order until one succeeds |
| **Where** | `.13:20129` via Docker, exposed through Caddy on .35 for remote access |
| **Provider registered in pi as** | `omni` (not `omniroute`) — the `omniroute-pi-ext-integration` npm package registers the `omni` provider |
| **Pi default model** | `default-opencode-go-ds-flash` — a combo on OmniRoute that prioritises OpenCode-Go's DeepSeek V4 Flash ($5/month sub) before falling back to other providers |
| **Combo chain** | User-created combo `default-opencode-go-ds-flash` tries providers in order: OpenCode-Go → OpenRouter → DeepSeek direct → Google Gemini |
| **Sub-agent routing** | Sub-agents route through the same combo — individual model IDs like `opencode-go/deepseek-v4-flash` match the combo and fall through the same priority chain |
| **Models** | 484 models available via OmniRoute (synced with `/omni sync`), available in pi's Ctrl+P model picker |
| **How pi connects** | The `omniroute-pi-ext-integration` extension registers all models + the `omni` provider. URL + API key set once via `/omni setup`. Re-sync via `/omni sync`. |

### Files & Commands

| Item | Location / Command |
|------|-------------------|
| Docker compose | `/home/sam/Docker/Containers/omniroute/docker-compose.yml` on .13 |
| pi extension | `omniroute-pi-ext-integration` (npm package, installed via `pi install npm:omniroute-pi-ext-integration`) |
| Extension config | `~/.pi/agent/models.json` — stores URL + API key for `omni` provider, plus model list |
| Setup | `/omni setup` (one-time: URL + API key) |
| Sync | `/omni sync` (re-fetch model list) |
| Access (local) | `http://192.168.20.13:20129/v1` |
| Access (via Caddy) | `https://omniroute.lab.audasmedia.com.au/v1` |
| API key | `sk-fff5c0d55c0bc0bf-b58ed0-76da5716` (stored in `~/.config/environment.d/10-secrets.conf` on .27/.51, hardcoded in settings.json on .13) |

## Open WebUI — Chat Frontend

Open WebUI v0.11.0 runs on .13 as a native NixOS process (not Docker), managed via Home Manager. Provides a chat UI that can connect to any OpenAI-compatible API — including OmniRoute.

| Aspect | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| **URL** | `http://192.168.20.13:3000` |
| **Package** | `open-webui-0.11.0` (NixOS nixpkgs) |
| **How to connect OmniRoute** | Admin Panel ⚙️ → Settings → Connections → OpenAI API → URL: `http://192.168.20.13:20129/v1` (include `/v1`), Key: OmniRoute API key |
| **Also works with** | Any OpenAI-compatible API (TokenRouter, OpenRouter, DeepSeek) — add each as a separate connection |
| **Port note** | :3000 is taken by Open WebUI. Langfuse was bumped to :3001. |

---

## Ollama — Local LLM Inference (REMOVED)

~~Runs on .13 with `qwen2.5-coder:7b` (Q4_K_M, 7.6B params).~~ **Removed August 2026.** Redundant — OmniRoute provides 485 models including superior `qwen/qwen3.5-9b`. The 4.7GB disk + RAM cost on a 15.5GB server wasn't justified.

### Pi default model selection model

Machines route through `omni` provider with `defaultModel: "default-opencode-go-ds-flash"`:

```
pi → omni provider → POST /v1/chat/completions { model: "default-opencode-go-ds-flash" }
  → OmniRoute matches combo "default-opencode-go-ds-flash"
  → Tries: OpenCode-Go → OpenRouter → DeepSeek direct → Google Gemini
  → Returns first successful response
```

### Per-machine setup state

| Machine | Package installed | Provider config | `/omni setup` done | Models synced |
|---------|-----------------|-----------------|-------------------|--------------|
| .27 | ✅ In home.nix | ✅ `omni` | ✅ | ✅ |
| .13 | ✅ pi install | ✅ `omni` | ✅ | ✅ |
| .51 | ✅ pi install | ✅ `omni` | ✅ | ✅ |

---

## markitdown

Convert various file formats to Markdown. Useful for feeding documents and images into LLMs.

### What it converts

| Format | Input | Notes |
|--------|-------|-------|
| PDF | `.pdf` | Preserves structure (headings, lists, tables) |
| Word | `.docx` | mammoth + lxml |
| PowerPoint | `.pptx` | python-pptx |
| Excel | `.xlsx`, `.xls` | openpyxl + pandas |
| Images | `.jpg`, `.png`, etc. | EXIF metadata (free) + LLM vision description (via OpenRouter) |
| HTML | `.html` | beautifulsoup4 |
| CSV / JSON / XML | `.csv`, `.json`, `.xml` | Structured data → Markdown tables |
| ZIP | `.zip` | Iterates contents, converts each file |
| EPubs | `.epub` | |
| YouTube | URLs | Transcript extraction |

### CLI usage

```bash
# Convert file to Markdown (stdout)
markitdown document.pdf

# Write to file
markitdown document.pdf -o document.md

# Image with LLM vision description
markitdown-vision photo.jpg
```

### Image analysis

Two levels:

1. **EXIF metadata only** (free, no API key): `markitdown photo.jpg`
2. **LLM vision description** (via OpenRouter, requires API key): `markitdown-vision photo.jpg`

The `markitdown-vision` wrapper auto-sources `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` from `~/.config/environment.d/10-secrets.conf` and uses `qwen/qwen2.5-vl-72b-instruct`.

### Missing / can be added

| Feature | What's needed |
|---------|--------------|
| Audio transcription | `pip install markitdown[audio-transcription]` (pydub + speechrecognition) |
| Azure AI Document Intelligence | `pip install markitdown[az-doc-intel]` + Azure credentials |
| Azure Content Understanding | `pip install markitdown[az-content-understanding]` + Azure credentials |
| markitdown-ocr plugin | Installed but needs OpenRouter key enabled to activate |

## falcode-zellij

Zellij plugin + agent extensions that track all active AI coding panes (pi, OpenCode, Claude Code) across Zellij sessions in a floating popup. Jump to any pane with one keystroke. Shows attention icons on Zellij tabs when an agent starts/stops working.

### Components

| Component | Location | Purpose |
|-----------|----------|---------|
| **Zellij WASM plugin** | `~/.config/zellij/plugins/falcode-zellij-sessions.wasm` | Floating popup UI showing all agent panes |
| **pi extension** | `~/.pi/agent/extensions/falcode.ts` | Reports pi pane status (working/idle) to the Zellij plugin |
| **attention WASM** | `~/.config/zellij/plugins/zellij-attention.wasm` | Shows ⏳/✅ icons on Zellij tabs when agent is active/done |
| **detection script** | `~/.local/state/falcode-zellij/` | Shared state directory for pane status snapshots |

### Keybindings

| Key | Action |
|-----|--------|
| `Alt a` | Launch/focus falcode floating popup (config.kdl `shared_except "locked"`) |

### pi integration

The `falcode.ts` extension auto-detects Zellij via `ZELLIJ_PANE_ID`/`ZELLIJ_SESSION_NAME` env vars. Outside Zellij it's a no-op.

- `agent_start` event → writes `"working"` status
- `agent_end` event → writes `"waiting_user_input"` status
- Heartbeat every 60s to keep pane alive
- `FALCODE_NOTIFY_SCRIPT=/bin/true` in home.nix (disables macOS notifications on Linux)

### Install on new machine

```bash
# pi extension
mkdir -p ~/.pi/agent/extensions
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/victor-falcon/falcode-zellij/main/pi-extension/falcode.ts \
  -o ~/.pi/agent/extensions/falcode.ts

# WASM plugins
mkdir -p ~/.config/zellij/plugins
curl -L https://github.com/victor-falcon/falcode-zellij/releases/latest/download/falcode-zellij-sessions.wasm \
  -o ~/.config/zellij/plugins/falcode-zellij-sessions.wasm
curl -L https://github.com/victor-falcon/falcode-zellij/releases/latest/download/zellij-attention.wasm \
  -o ~/.config/zellij/plugins/zellij-attention.wasm
```

### Claude Code integration

Also has a hook at `~/.local/state/falcode-zellij/falcode-hook.sh` for Claude Code status reporting. See [README](https://github.com/victor-falcon/falcode-zellij#readme) for Claude config.

### Zellij config (`config.kdl`)

Already configured in Home Manager:
```kdl
plugins {
    falcode location="file:/home/sam/.config/zellij/plugins/falcode-zellij-sessions.wasm" {
        state_dir "/home/sam/.local/state/falcode-zellij"
    }
    attention location="file:/home/sam/.config/zellij/plugins/zellij-attention.wasm"
}

load_plugins {
    "file:/home/sam/.config/zellij/plugins/zellij-attention.wasm" {
        enabled "true"
        waiting_icon "⏳"
        completed_icon "✅"
    }
}

keybinds {
    shared_except "locked" {
        bind "Alt a" {
            LaunchOrFocusPlugin "falcode" {
                floating true
                move_to_focused_tab true
            }
        }
    }
}
```

---

## Security Tools (npm Global)

Three tools installed globally at `~/.local/share/npm-global/bin/` to guard package installs.

### SafeDep Vet (`vet`)

Scans local directories for multi-language malware signatures. Catches obfuscated code, suspicious imports, base64 payloads.

```bash
# Scan a cloned repo before touching it
vet scan -D . --format json --filter "package.malware == true"

# Scan package metadata from npm registry
vet scan package <name> --format json
```

### Socket Firewall (`socket`)

Wraps npm/pip installs with real-time scanning. Blocks malicious packages at install time.

```bash
# Safe npm install
socket npm install <package>

# Safe pip install
socket pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### npq

Checks package names against typosquatting lists before install. Lightweight, local, no phoning home.

```bash
npq check <package> --json
```

### Workflow

```
1. vet scan → checks for malware in the code/package
2. npq check → checks the package name for typosquatting
3. socket install → wraps the actual install with runtime scanning
```

The **npm-security** skill instructs the Pi agent to follow this workflow before any install.


## Headroom

Headroom is a **context compression layer** that reduces prompt token usage by 60-95% for heavy analysis/code/devops workloads. It runs as a Docker container on the server (192.168.20.13) and is triggered by the headroom-bridge extension.

### How it works

1. headroom-bridge detects analysis/code/devops contexts
2. Tags `read`, `discuss`, `search` **never** trigger compression (these are fast paths)
3. For all other tags, if accumulated context exceeds ~5K tokens, headroom-bridge calls `compress()`
4. Messages are sent to the Headroom proxy at `192.168.20.13:8787`
5. Headroom compresses the context (using SmartCrusher for JSON, CodeCompressor for AST, Kompress-base ML for text)
6. Compressed messages are returned and forwarded to the LLM
7. If the proxy is down, messages pass through unchanged (graceful fallback)

### Architecture

```
Desktop (.27)                         Server (.13)
─────────────                         ────────────
headroom-bridge                       headroom proxy (Docker)
    │                                     │
    │  if compress needed:                │
    │  compress_for_agent(content) ──────►│
    │  HTTP POST 192.168.20.13:8787       │
    │  ◄────────── compressed content     │
    │                                     │
    │  return to agent                    │
    │                                     │
    │  if proxy down: pass through        │
```

### Compression thresholds

| Condition | Action |
|---|---|
| Tag is `read`/`discuss`/`search` | Skip — no compression |
| Context < 5K tokens | Skip — too small to benefit |
| Context ≥ 5K tokens + analysis/code/devops tag | Compress |
| Proxy unreachable | Pass through unchanged |

### headroom-bridge

Path: `~/.agents/extensions/headroom-bridge/index.ts`. Tool: `compress_for_agent({ content })` — compresses content >20K chars via Headroom Docker on .13:8787. 60-95% token reduction. See [[#Function Calls]] for signature.

### Management

```bash
# Check status
ssh 192.168.20.13 "docker ps --filter name=headroom"

# View logs
ssh 192.168.20.13 "docker logs --tail 20 headroom"

# Restart
ssh 192.168.20.13 "docker restart headroom"

# Update image
ssh 192.168.20.13 "cd /home/sam/Docker/Containers/headroom && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d"
```

### Files

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `~/.agents/extensions/headroom-bridge/index.ts` | `compress_for_agent` tool implementation |
| `/home/sam/Docker/Containers/headroom/docker-compose.yml` | Docker service definition (on .13) |
| `/home/sam/Docker/Containers/headroom/.env` | Environment file (on .13) |


## pi-langfuse — LLM Observability for Pi

Sends pi's LLM traffic to Langfuse (self-hosted on .13:3001) for tracing, token usage, and cost-per-session. One trace per user prompt, grouped by pi session.

| Aspect | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| **What it is** | pi extension (npm package `pi-langfuse` v1.5.8, by gooyoung) that captures pi runs — agent steps, LLM generations, tool calls, final output, usage, cost — into Langfuse |
| **Where it runs** | Per-project — vendored at `~/.agents/extensions/pi-langfuse/`, activated with `/config-add ext pi-langfuse` then `/reload`. Keys read globally from `~/.pi/agent/pi-langfuse/config.json` |
| **Config file** | `~/.pi/agent/pi-langfuse/config.json` (mode 600): `{ "publicKey": "pk-lf-…", "secretKey": "sk-lf-…", "host": "http://192.168.20.13:3001" }` |
| **Env var fallback** | `LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY`, `LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY`, `LANGFUSE_BASE_URL` (used only when config.json is missing/incomplete) |
| **Commands** | `/langfuse-setup` (interactive key entry), `/langfuse-status` (show config state, masked keys, capture policy) |
| **Requirements** | Node ≥ 22 (machines run 24); peer dep `@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent: *` |
| **What you get** | Root `agent`, per-request `generation`, and per-tool `tool` observations; token usage + cost; privacy controls (input/output/tool redaction, path hashing, secret redaction) |
| **Dashboard** | `http://192.168.20.13:3001` |

### Install (per project)

Run inside the target project folder (uses the standard `~/.agents` workflow — see the nixos-workflow skill):

```text
/config-add ext pi-langfuse
/reload
```

pi installs the extension's npm dependencies automatically (deps are gitignored in `~/.agents`).

### Global install (all projects / machines)

The global `~/.pi/agent/settings.json` is a Nix-store symlink (read-only). To enable everywhere, add `npm:pi-langfuse` to the `packages` list in `/etc/nixos/home/sam/home.nix` and rebuild Home Manager.

### Why not the OmniRoute langfuse plugin?

OmniRoute's example langfuse plugin is **broken against the 3.8.48 runtime** (verified in source, 2026-08-03):
- Plugin config is stored in SQLite but **never delivered to hook payloads** — `PluginContext` has no `config` field
- `onRequest` metadata is **not threaded** to `onResponse` (each hook gets a fresh `metadata: {}`)
- **Streaming requests** (what pi uses) receive `response: { status: 200, streamed: true }` — no response body to trace

pi-langfuse traces at the pi layer instead, which works for streaming and gives per-session grouping. The plugin files were removed from .13 (compose restored, container recreated clean).


## codebase-memory-mcp

Code intelligence MCP server by DeusData. Single static C binary (~13MB), zero dependencies, 158 languages. Indexes a codebase into a persistent knowledge graph — average repo in milliseconds. 15 MCP tools for structural queries. Runs locally, code never leaves your machine.

**Install:**
```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp/main/install.sh | bash
```
Installed to `~/.local/bin/codebase-memory-mcp`.

**Index a project:**
```
mcp({ tool: "index_repository", args: '{"repo_path": ".", "mode": "fast"}' })
```

**15 Tools:**

| Tool | What it does |
|------|-------------|
| `index_repository` | Index a repo (full/moderate/fast/cross-repo-intelligence modes) |
| `search_graph` | BM25 full-text search + semantic vector search for code |
| `query_graph` | Cypher queries — multi-hop patterns, complexity analysis |
| `trace_path` | Follow call chains, data flow, or cross-service HTTP via Route nodes |
| `get_code_snippet` | Read source code for a function/class/symbol |
| `get_graph_schema` | Show available node labels and edge types |
| `get_architecture` | High-level architecture: packages, clusters, routes, entry points |
| `search_code` | Grep + graph enrichment, ranked by structural importance |
| `list_projects` | List all indexed projects |
| `delete_project` | Remove a project from the graph |
| `index_status` | Check index freshness and stats |

| `manage_adr` | Architecture Decision Records |
| `ingest_traces` | Import OpenTelemetry traces into the graph |

**MCP config** (`~/.pi/agent/mcp.json`):
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codebase-memory": {
      "command": "/home/sam/.local/bin/codebase-memory-mcp",
      "lifecycle": "lazy"
    }
  }
}
```

**Deployed on all machines (.27, .13, .51):**
```bash
~/.local/bin/codebase-memory-mcp --version  # v0.9.0
```
Path not in shell PATH on .13/.51 — MCP config uses absolute path `/home/sam/.local/bin/codebase-memory-mcp` so still works.

**Install command (if needed on new machine):**
```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp/main/install.sh | bash
```

**UI mode** (graph visualization at `localhost:9749`):
```bash
curl -fsSL .../install.sh | bash -s -- --ui
codebase-memory-mcp --ui=true --port=9749
```

## code-review-graph

Structural code intelligence MCP server by tirth8205. Parses source code with Tree-sitter AST into a knowledge graph (functions, classes, imports, calls, inheritance, tests). Stored in SQLite. 28+ MCP tools for token-efficient code review, blast-radius analysis, and architectural insights. **Per-project** — each repo gets its own `.code-review-graph/graph.db`.

**Install:**
```bash
uv tool install code-review-graph  # or: pipx install code-review-graph
```
Installed to `~/.local/bin/code-review-graph` v2.3.7.

**Build a graph for a project:**
```bash
cd /etc/nixos
code-review-graph build    # parses codebase → .code-review-graph/graph.db
```

**Key MCP tools:**
| Tool | What it does |
|------|-------------|
| `get_review_context` | Compact review context (callers, callees, tests, risks) |
| `get_impact_radius` | Blast radius — every caller/dependent/test affected by a change |
| `query_graph` | Direct graph queries (traverse call chains, dependency paths) |
| `semantic_search_nodes` | Semantic (embedding-based) code search |

A multi-component system for live agent visibility across all machines. Every pi session on every machine (plus sub-agents) reports its state; the TUI shows them all in one table and can attach to them, review their diffs, or open their task boards.

### Architecture

```
pi session (any machine, any terminal: zellij / tmux / plain)
  └─ dashboard.ts extension
       ├─ writes ~/.pi/agent/dashboard/<session>.json   (heartbeat every 15s + on events)
       ├─ tracks tasks → <project>/todo.txt
       └─ sends NTFY / Apprise / notify-send notifications
                                                     │ SSH pull (cat *.json)
pi-dashboard (Go TUI on .27) ◄───────────────────────┴── .13 + .51 state dirs
```

| Component | Type | Purpose |
|-----------|------|---------|
| **dashboard.ts** | pi extension (`~/.pi/agent/extensions/dashboard.ts`; source `~/.agents/extensions/dashboard.ts` → Gitea `pi-config`) | Per-session telemetry: heartbeat, cwd, started/closed times, agent status, tool count; task tools; notifications |
| **pi-dashboard** | Go binary (`~/.local/bin/pi-dashboard`) | Bubble Tea TUI over all machines' state files |
| **Tuxedo** | Rust binary (`tuxedo`, nix) | todo.txt task manager (vim keys, phone capture QR) — per-project boards |
| **Hunk** | Node CLI (`hunk`, nix / npm `hunkdiff`) | Review-first terminal diff viewer for agent-authored changes |

### Quick start

```bash
pi-dashboard                 # full TUI
pi-dashboard --list          # plain-text snapshot of local sessions
pi-dashboard --help          # keybindings + config reference
```

### Day-to-day usage (the mental model)

**The pi terminal is for talking; the dashboard TUI is for watching.** You never type tool names or run hunk/tuxedo inside the pi input.

| You want to… | What you do | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Add / list / complete tasks | Tell pi: *"add a task: …"*, *"what tasks do I have?"*, *"mark … done"* | The agent calls `register_task` / `list_tasks` / `complete_task`, which write lines to `<project>/todo.txt` at the project root |
| See the task board | Press `Tab` in the dashboard TUI | Tuxedo opens the selected session's `todo.txt` (vim keys: `j/k`, `dd` complete, `u` undo, `s` phone QR) |
| Review what an agent changed | Press `d` on its row in the dashboard TUI | Hunk opens in the agent's folder: `cd <cwd> && hunk diff --watch` — shows **all uncommitted changes** in that repo (not a two-file compare) |
| Jump into a session | Press `Enter` on its row | `tmux attach` / `zellij attach` / `zellij action switch-session` |

Key points:
- `register_task`/`complete_task`/`list_tasks` are **agent tools** — you ask in English, the AI calls them. They feed todo.txt, which is what Tuxedo displays.
- **Hunk's "first/second file" mode** is `hunk diff <left> <right>` for comparing two concrete files. The dashboard `d` key uses `hunk diff --watch` (whole working tree) instead.
- Both task systems coexist: the **dashboard tools** → todo.txt → Tuxedo (vim board), while **@tintinweb/pi-tasks** (`TaskCreate`, `TaskExecute`, `/tasks`) is a separate dependency-tracked task engine that can spawn subagents.

### State model

Each session writes `~/.pi/agent/dashboard/<session>.json` (atomic write):

| Field | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| `session` | pi session name |
| `cwd` | full working directory the session runs in (the **Folder** column) |
| `session_started_at` / `closed_at` | session start / graceful-close times |
| `last_seen_at` | heartbeat — refreshed every 15 s + on every event |
| `agent_status` | `idle` / `running` / `blocked` / `error` (the *agent turn*) |
| `session_state` | `open` / `closed` (the *process liveness*) |
| `terminal_type` | `tmux` / `zellij` / `tmux+zellij` / `direct` |
| `zellij_session` / `tmux_session` / `pid` | attach targets for Enter |
| `is_subagent` | true for rows named `<Agent>#<8hex>` (pi-subagents) |

**Closed detection** — a session counts as closed when:
- the extension wrote `session_state: "closed"` on graceful shutdown, **or**
- `last_seen_at` is older than `stale_after` (default 45 s) — the terminal was killed (pane closed, `kill -9`) without a shutdown event.

Status labels: `● running` · `○ idle` · `⚠ blocked` · `✕ error` · `✗ closed` (graceful) · `✗ lost` (died without shutdown).

### TUI keybindings

| Key | Action |
|-----|--------|
| `↑↓` | Select agent |
| `Enter` | Attach: `tmux attach -t <name>` / `zellij attach <name>` (dashboard outside zellij) / `zellij action switch-session <name>` (dashboard inside zellij) — local, or over SSH for remote rows |
| `d` | **Hunk** — review the selected agent's changes *in its own folder*: `cd <cwd> && hunk diff --watch` |
| `Tab` | **Tuxedo** — open the selected agent's **project** task board: `<cwd>/todo.txt` (created if missing; falls back to global board) |
| `s` | Cycle sort: **smart** (live first → running first → last activity) → activity → started → folder |
| `x` | Toggle hiding closed sessions (dead sessions sink to the bottom by default; `x` removes them from the view, press again to restore) |
| `z` | Toggle hiding sub-agent rows (marked `◇`) |
| `r` | Force refresh |
| `q` | Quit |

Selecting a row shows a detail pane: full folder path, started / closed / last-seen times, terminal + zellij/tmux session + pid, model, tool count, current task, blocked prompt.

### Session naming & rename

Name resolution order on start: pi session name → `PI_SESSION` env → tmux session name → **zellij session name** (only when it isn't zellij's auto-generated `word-word` animal name like `chatty-echidna`) → working-directory basename.

**Recommended workflow — one named zellij session per pi session, same name for both:**

```bash
zellij -s computer_software        # create a named zellij session…
# …pi started inside it auto-inherits "computer_software" as its pi session name
```

**Rename mid-session (pi session + zellij session + dashboard row together):**

```text
/dash-name <name>
```

> pi's built-in `/name` only renames the pi session and cannot be hooked by extensions — `/dash-name` renames all three (pi, zellij, dashboard row). Use `/name` or `Ctrl+R` in `/tree` when you only want to rename the pi session.

### Long-running / background sessions (tmux survival layer)

To keep a pi session running after zellij (or the terminal) closes — e.g. a long agent job on a remote machine — run pi inside a tmux session **inside** the zellij pane:

```bash
tmux new -s deploy-job            # inside the zellij pane
pi                                # start pi inside tmux
# detach with Ctrl-b d — tmux (and pi) keep running after zellij closes
tmux attach -t deploy-job         # reattach whenever
```

The extension detects the `TMUX` env var: rows show `Ⓣ`, and `Enter` does `tmux attach` — the session survives zellij closing. Rows in bare zellij panes show `Ⓩ`; `tmux+zellij` shows `ⓉⓏ`; plain terminals show `·`.

### Tasks & Tuxedo

- Agents register tasks via the `register_task` / `complete_task` / `list_tasks` tools.
- Task files are **per project**: `<project>/todo.txt` at the project root (standard todo.txt format) — visible in `ls`, easy to open, and **tracked in git** when the project is a repo: task changes are versioned (progress history) and visible to collaborators who clone the repo. (No gitignore — it's a tiny file; the only caveat is that tasks in a public/shared repo are public, so keep secrets out of task titles.)
- In the dashboard, `Tab` opens Tuxedo on the **selected row's** project board; with nothing selected it falls back to `~/.pi/agent/dashboard/tasks/todo.txt`.
- Tuxedo: vim keys (`j/k`, `dd`, `gg/G`), `u` undo (50 levels), `s` QR phone capture → https://github.com/webstonehq/tuxedo

### Hunk

- `d` in the dashboard runs `hunk diff --watch` in the selected agent's folder (over SSH for remote rows) — review exactly what that agent changed.
- Standalone: `hunk diff --watch` (live review of the working tree), `hunk show` (last commit). Multi-file sidebar, inline AI annotations, split/stack/responsive layouts. → https://github.com/modem-dev/hunk

### Cross-machine config (`~/.config/pi-dashboard.yaml`)

```yaml
poll_interval: 2
stale_after: 45        # seconds without heartbeat ⇒ session considered closed
hide_closed: false     # start with closed sessions hidden (toggle with x)
local:
  path: /home/sam/.pi/agent/dashboard/
remote:
  - host: 192.168.20.13
    user: sam
    path: /home/sam/.pi/agent/dashboard/
  - host: 192.168.20.51
    user: sam
    path: /home/sam/.pi/agent/dashboard/
```

Remote polling is plain `ssh … "cat <path>/*.json"` (BatchMode, 5 s connect timeout); unreachable remotes are skipped silently.

### Deployment

- **Extension** — source of truth: `~/.agents/extensions/dashboard.ts` (Gitea `pi-config`). Edit there, commit + push, then copy to `~/.pi/agent/extensions/dashboard.ts` on each machine (`.27`, `.13`, `.51`).
- **Binary** — `cd ~/src/pi-dashboard && CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -o ~/.local/bin/pi-dashboard .`, then `scp` to `.13`/`.51`.
- After updating the extension on a machine, run `/reload` in running pi sessions (or restart) to activate it.
- Dead state files accumulate by design (they just show as closed); the `archive/` subfolder holds pruned files.

## engram + gentle-engram

engram v1.16.1 runs on nixos-desktop (.13) at `~/.local/bin/engram`. Systemd user service auto-starts. Binds `127.0.0.1:7437`, accessed via SSH tunnel: `ssh -fNL 7437:127.0.0.1:7437 192.168.20.13`.

**gentle-engram** connects via `ENGRAM_URL=http://127.0.0.1:7437`. Replaces memory-vault. Features: session capture, compaction recovery, private block redaction.

⚠️ **The SSH tunnel must be running for engram to work.** It does not auto-start. Re-establish with: `ssh -fNL 7437:127.0.0.1:7437 192.168.20.13`

## MCP Servers

pi-mcp-adapter connects Pi to external services via the Model Context Protocol.

**Config files:** `~/.pi/agent/mcp.json` (pi global), `~/.config/mcp/mcp.json` (shared), `.mcp.json` (project)

```json
// ~/.pi/agent/mcp.json — pi MCP servers
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codebase-memory": {
      "command": "/home/sam/.local/bin/codebase-memory-mcp",
      "lifecycle": "lazy"
    },
    "code-review-graph": {
      "command": "/home/sam/.local/bin/code-review-graph",
      "args": ["serve"],
      "lifecycle": "lazy"
    }
  }
}
```

Shared config at `~/.config/mcp/mcp.json`:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/home/sam"]
    }
  }
}
```

**Find MCP servers at:**
- [github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers)
- [smithery.ai](https://smithery.ai) — community registry

**Usage:**
- `/mcp` — interactive panel to manage servers
- `mcp({ search: "..." })` — search available tools
- `mcp({ tool: "tool_name", args: '{}' })` — call a tool
- Servers are lazy (connect on first use, disconnect after 10 min idle)

## Configuration Files

### Global (`~/.pi/agent/settings.json`)
- Nix store symlink — managed via `/etc/nixos/home/sam/home.nix`
- Contains: providers (opencode-go, openrouter, google), packages (pi-memctx, pi-prompt-template-model, Gitea)
- **Read-only** — cannot be modified by `pi install` or `/config-add`

### Project (`<project-dir>/.pi/settings.json`)
- Overrides global settings (arrays replace, not merge)
- Contains: `~/.agents` package (extensions + skills), Gitea package (tavily-search)
- Modified via `/config-add` / `/config-remove` commands

### Per-folder Memory (via pi-memctx)
- Memory stored in `<chat-folder>/.pi/memory-vault/packs/`
- Workspace map at `~/.pi/agent/memory-vault/00-system/workspace-map.json`
- Each chat folder has isolated memory (prevents sibling directory contamination)


### models.json (Provider Routing)

Path: `~/.pi/agent/models.json` (symlinked from `~/.agents/models.json` for Gitea). Injects OpenRouter provider routing for KV cache sharing. DeepSeek cache discount: 91.7% ($0.145/M vs $1.74/M input). Configured: deepseek, qwen, minimax, moonshotai. Mechanism: pi-core reads `model.compat.openRouterRouting` → injects `provider: { order: [...] }`.

### subagents.json

Path: `~/.pi/agent/subagents.json`. Configuration for pi-subagents agent types, default models, and providers.

| **bash-guard** (amosblomqvist) | ❌ Too aggressive — would interrupt flow |
| **google-image-search** (amosblomqvist) | ❌ Would need Google Search API + CSE setup |
| **pdf-reader** (amosblomqvist) | ⏳ Bookmarked — Python + pymupdf setup needed |
| **notify** (mitsuhiko) | ⏳ Minor QoL — desktop notifications on task complete |
| **audio/voice** | ⏳ Not practical | Pi TUI has no mic access or audio playback — fundamental platform limitation |
