    I feel the same way about needing support for sub-agents, those feel pretty foundational to me.

    I suspect that a smart model driving multiple dumber models for work and then using sub-agents with the same smart model for adversarial review will be a pretty common pattern.

    Personally, I got a bit confused about Pi having most of that stuff as plugins since I remember how much of a mess Eclipse was where so much was just loosely fitting together plugins and just went with OpenCode since it covers most of my needs out of the box. Guess that might also be a sign of me getting older, because my IDEs and desktop environments are all closer to stock too.

      oh-my-pi is a fork of Pi that adds a lot of this stuff

      I haven&#x27;t tried it much though, can&#x27;t vouch how well it works.

        Exceptionally well is my takeaway. It’s the only harness I am using these days. I was previously using pi and codex mostly, but also the ones built into editors like zed, vscode, and the jetbrains IDEs.

        On top of that, somewhat unrelated I’ll agree but still, it has support for vim keybindings

          Oh thank you for mentioning it has vim mode that&#x27;s been my only gripe and I had no idea it had it. don&#x27;t know if it&#x27;s new or not never noticed the setting.
