feat(cli): register Pi as a supported CLI host (#4157) - #4157
Conversation
Pi reads AGENTS.md from the working directory and discovers skills from .agents/skills/, so career-ops already ran on it with no wrapper file. Nothing said so: doctor.mjs rejected --cli pi, the canonical supported-CLI list omitted it, and no per-CLI registry (scaffolder, headless table, web KNOWN) knew it. Register it everywhere those lists live, with no PI.md wrapper and no auto-approve flag. Closes career-ops-hq#4155

Add the restart requirement to all Pi trust guidance.
Pi does not reload project resources in the current session after /trust. Add a restart requirement before invoking /skill:career-ops at .agents/skills/career-ops/SKILL.md:27, AGENTS.md:103, and README.md:325. The -a single-run path does not require a restart.

Add Pi to CLI_CANDIDATES: When no --cli override is set, detectCli() checks only CLI_CANDIDATES. The Pi-only development shell therefore returns No supported agent CLI found. The forced path already invokes an unknown --cli pi value as pi -p <prompt>. Add { bin: 'pi', args: p => ['-p', p] } to CLI_CANDIDATES.

official earendil-works/pi CLI documentation session saving --no-session
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
In the earendil-works/pi coding agent CLI, the --no-session flag is used to initiate an ephemeral mode that prevents the automatic saving of session history to disk [1][2][3]. When running with --no-session, pi operates in-memory, ensuring that no JSONL session files are created in the default storage directory (~/.pi/agent/sessions/) [2][3]. Key points regarding session management and --no-session: 1. Standard Behavior: By default, pi automatically saves conversations as sessions to ~/.pi/agent/sessions/, where they are organized by working directory [1][2]. 2. Purpose of --no-session: This flag is explicitly designed for ephemeral, non-persistent tasks where you do not want to retain history [1][3]. 3. Interaction with Commands: While --no-session prevents initial saving, it is important to be aware of how internal commands behave. Historically, using certain commands (like /new) within an ephemeral session could inadvertently trigger file creation, though this has been addressed in updates to ensure they respect the ephemeral nature of the process [4]. 4. Advanced Usage: For scenarios requiring both non-persistent storage and deterministic identification (such as when spawning subprocesses for isolated tasks), the CLI also supports combining --no-session with --session-id [5]. This allows the process to maintain an in-memory session while using a specific, predictable ID for provider-side caching [5]. For comprehensive documentation, you can refer to the official usage guide in the project's repository [1].

Disable Pi session saving for web-submitted prompts. web/src/lib/clis.ts:64 passes prompts from CV, offer-search, and application-planning routes to pi -p. Pi saves sessions under ~/.pi/agent/sessions/ by default. Build the Pi arguments as ["--no-session", "-p", p] so these prompts remain ephemeral.
