## What you get
- Manages coding tasks with an interactive command-line interface.
- Provides a single interface that unifies different AI providers.
- Accelerates development processes with a terminal-based interface.

## Installation
**Preparing the development environment**

```
npm install --ignore-scripts  # Install all dependencies without running lifecycle scripts
npm run build         # Refresh model data, then build all packages
```

**Building binaries from source code**

```
VERSION="<release-version>"
tar -xzf "pi-${VERSION}-source.tar.gz"
cd "pi-${VERSION}"
./scripts/build-binaries.sh --offline-model-data --platform linux-x64 --out "$PWD/out"
```


## If you don't write code
You are a software development assistant. Analyze my current codebase, identify the tasks that need to be performed, and help me manage coding processes interactively via the terminal. While performing operations, use unified AI providers to suggest the most appropriate solutions and manage the necessary tool calls throughout the process.
