Pi

Works with the CLI alone. No gander.md account.

Pi is a minimal terminal coding harness. You adapt it to your workflows rather than the other way around.

It loads skills from ~/.pi/agent/skills and .pi/skills. gander skill does not write that dest. Add a symlink after install.

1. Install the CLI

curl -fsSL https://release.gander.md/install.sh | bash
gander --version

After Homebrew or a source build, run gander skill.

2. Link the skill into Pi

mkdir -p ~/.pi/agent/skills
ln -sfn ~/.gander/skill ~/.pi/agent/skills/gander
ls -l ~/.pi/agent/skills/gander/SKILL.md

Restart Pi. Ask it to list skills or to gander a markdown file.

3. Sign up and add MCP

gander signup --email [email protected]

Add a stdio MCP server named gander, command gander, args mcp, in Pi's MCP config.

4. Use it

1. Ask Pi for a plan as markdown, then gander this file.
2. gander watch plan.md after signup.
3. Send the hosted URL.
4. @agent comments are MCP inbox work.

Fallback: gander comments.

5. Verify

gander list
gander comments
ls ~/.pi/agent/skills/gander
