FAQPage Schema

How do I run parallel tasks without interrupting my primary pi workflow?▼

You can delegate isolated tasks to independent pi subagents, spawning separate instances that execute work in the background without requiring context switching or managing separate terminal sessions.

Can I configure the model and working directory for delegated subagent tasks?▼

Yes, subagent execution is fully customizable, supporting specific model selection, configurable thinking levels, and target working directory specification to tailor the isolated task environment.

What is the best way to offload repetitive code analysis and TODO scanning?▼

Spawning an independent subagent instance delegates repetitive work like file searches and code analysis, isolating these tasks from your main session to maintain continuous workflow productivity.

Does the subagent skill require pi to spawn isolated task instances?▼

Yes, pi is a required dependency, serving as the foundational environment that the skill leverages to spawn and manage independent subagent instances for delegated task execution.

When should I not use parallel subagent execution for task delegation?▼

Avoid using subagent execution for tasks requiring shared state with your primary session, as subagents operate in isolation to prevent context interruption rather than managing synchronized workflows.

How do I delegate a file listing task to an independent subagent?▼

Use the subagent skill to run a prompt that lists all project files, spawning an independent pi instance that executes the directory search independently without interrupting your current work.
