* Add pi-native validate skill mirroring .claude/commands/validate.md
Pi (the coding agent harness) doesn't read Claude Code's commands/
directory, so contributors using pi didn't have access to /validate.
This adds .pi/skills/validate/SKILL.md with the same background-run +
monitor + retry workflow, invokable as /skill:validate.
Tooling-only change: no code in packages/, no changeset needed.
* Symlink AGENTS.md -> CLAUDE.md
Pi and other non-Claude agent harnesses (Codex, etc.) look for
AGENTS.md. Symlinking keeps a single source of truth in CLAUDE.md
while making the same instructions discoverable to every harness.
* Rename pi validate skill to agent-ci-dev
Matches the underlying command (pnpm agent-ci-dev) and disambiguates
from the published agent-ci skill, which wraps npx @redwoodjs/agent-ci
for downstream users. Description now explicitly calls out the
distinction.
* Generalize CLAUDE.md for AGENTS.md symlink; reference agent-ci-dev pi skill
- Retitle and add a preamble noting the file is shared via AGENTS.md
symlink, so it's now the single source of truth for all harnesses.
- CI section now references both the Claude Code /validate command
and the pi /skill:agent-ci-dev skill, so pi contributors follow the
same background-monitor-retry workflow Claude Code contributors do.
* Rename Claude Code /validate to /agent-ci-dev
Aligns the Claude Code slash command name with the pi skill
(/skill:agent-ci-dev) and the underlying package command
(pnpm agent-ci-dev). Backward compat preserved via the existing
aliases: [validate] frontmatter, so /validate still resolves.
* Add pi extension: bash_background + monitor_wait tools
Pi's native bash is synchronous-only, and pi doesn't ship a Monitor
tool. Previously the agent-ci-dev skill assumed Claude Code's
run_in_background Bash + streaming Monitor, which don't exist in pi.
This adds .pi/extensions/background-shell.ts, a pi extension that
registers two tools:
- bash_background spawn a shell command; return taskId + outputFile
+ pid immediately. stdout+stderr tee'd to a log.
- monitor_wait block until a regex matches new log output, OR
the task exits, OR timeoutMs elapses. Tracks
per-task byte offsets across calls.
The skill is rewritten to drive these tools. Zero npm dependencies at
runtime (Node built-ins only, ExtensionAPI imported type-only, JSON
Schema written inline), so no npm install step is needed after clone.
Tooling-only change, no changeset required.
