    I'd _love_ to get some feedback on how people use Pi after initial setup. I (like others) am pretty heavily "invested" in Claude Code CLI. After trying out Pi and a local model, I realized how MUCH the `claude` CLI was lifting. I'd like to strip a lot of the fluff out and build my own, but it feels like I need to see what other people are doing too.

      Posted this elsewhere in this thread. I've daily driven Pi for 9+ months and I recommend pi a lot to friends. I think switching to pi from claude code is pretty daunting. The pi extension system is excellent. But which extensions should you use? And honestly a lot of the most popular extensions to me feel bloated / weird / vibe-coded.

      Here&#x27;s my minimal set up: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;richardgill&#x2F;pi-extensions&#x2F;blob&#x2F;main&#x2F;PI_SETUP.md" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;richardgill&#x2F;pi-extensions&#x2F;blob&#x2F;main&#x2F;PI_SE...
