Adding https://pi.dev/ agent.

Currently I install it as:

$ mise u -g github:badlogic/pi-mono
$ pi --version
0.59.0

Tar from releases:

$ tar --list -f pi-linux-x64.tar.gz | grep pi/pi
pi/pi

Code Review

This pull request adds the pi coding agent to the mise registry. The configuration specifies both a GitHub and an npm backend. However, the default GitHub backend is configured incorrectly, as it will install a binary named pi-mono while the test command expects pi. I've suggested a fix to rename the binary upon installation.

The github:badlogic/pi-mono backend provides a binary named pi-mono (e.g., pi-mono-linux-amd64), but the test command expects pi. This will cause the test to fail when using the GitHub backend, which is the default. You should use the exe option to rename the binary to pi upon installation.

backends = ["github:badlogic/pi-mono", "npm:@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent"]
backends = [{ full = "github:badlogic/pi-mono", options = { exe = "pi" } }, "npm:@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent"]

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a registry entry for pi, a minimal terminal coding agent CLI distributed as @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent on npm from the badlogic/pi-mono monorepo. The change is a single new file following the established registry TOML convention.

  • The npm:@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent backend is correct — it is the official and only published distribution channel for this tool.
  • The github:badlogic/pi-mono backend listed first is likely problematic: pi-mono is a TypeScript monorepo and its GitHub releases are npm version tags, not standalone binary artifacts. The mise github: backend resolves installable assets from GitHub Release attachments; since pi-mono doesn't ship such binaries, this backend will silently fail or produce an error for users. Comparable coding-agent entries (amp, claude, codex, code) either use npm: alone or aqua: + npm:, not github: + npm:.
  • The description and test fields follow registry conventions correctly.

Confidence Score: 3/5

  • Safe to merge with the github:badlogic/pi-mono backend concern resolved; the npm backend alone is functional.
  • The core npm backend is valid and matches the canonical install method. The only meaningful issue is that the github: backend is almost certainly non-functional for this TypeScript npm package, which could confuse users or silently fall back. Once that is addressed (either by confirming binary assets exist, or by removing the github: entry), the PR is straightforward.
  • registry/pi.toml — specifically the github:badlogic/pi-mono backend entry.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
registry/pi.toml Adds pi coding agent to the registry. The github:badlogic/pi-mono backend is likely non-functional as the project distributes via npm rather than GitHub Release binaries; the npm backend is correct. The format and description otherwise match the registry convention.

P1 github: backend likely non-functional for this TypeScript npm package

badlogic/pi-mono is a TypeScript monorepo whose distribution method is npm install -g @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent. The github: backend in mise attempts to download pre-compiled binary release assets from GitHub Releases. Since pi-mono does not appear to publish standalone binary artifacts in its GitHub releases (only npm version tags like v0.59.0), the github:badlogic/pi-mono backend will fail at install time for users who rely on it.

The canonical install path for other npm-distributed coding agents in this registry (e.g. amp.toml, codex.toml) is either npm: alone or aqua: + npm: (when an aqua manifest exists). If pi-mono does ship platform binaries as GitHub release assets this is fine — but if not, the entry should be:

Suggested change
backends = ["github:badlogic/pi-mono", "npm:@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent"]
backends = ["npm:@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent"]
