SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the detection of project types and the generation of appropriate .pi/ configuration files, streamlining the setup process for new projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Project Type Detection: Automatically identifies the project type (e.g., Node.js, Python, Go) based on files like package.json or requirements.txt.
  • Framework Detection: Recognizes popular frameworks like React, Vue, Django, and FastAPI.
  • Tooling Detection: Identifies existing tooling such as ESLint, Prettier, pytest, etc.
  • Configuration Generation: Generates .pi/ directory with settings.json and AGENTS.md files, setting up project-specific configurations and context for agents.
  • Use Case: Ideal for initializing .pi/ configuration for a new project or when a user requests to set up pi for a new project.

Quick Start

Initialize the .pi/ configuration for your project by running the quick-setup skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically generate pi configuration files for a new project?

To generate pi configuration files, this Skill automatically detects your project type and tooling, then creates a .pi/ directory containing settings.json and AGENTS.md files for immediate project setup.

What project types and frameworks does automatic project detection support?

Automatic project detection supports Node.js, Python, and Go environments by parsing files like package.json and requirements.txt, recognizing frameworks such as React, Vue, Django, and FastAPI.

How do I set up pi for a new project using existing tooling configurations?

Set up pi by letting the Skill parse existing tooling configurations like ESLint, Prettier, and pytest from your project files, which then generates matching project-specific configurations in the .pi/ directory.

Can I use this project setup tool without installing any external dependencies?

Yes, you can use this project setup tool without external dependencies because it operates entirely through internal scripts to parse project files and generate the required pi configuration.

When should I run pi configuration initialization for my project?

You should run pi configuration initialization during new project setups or when you need to establish agent context, as it relies on parsing existing project files to generate the correct .pi/ directory structure.
