One thing I like more and more about Pi Coding Agent is that it stays extremely small on purpose。
The shape is basically core agent with only 4 basic tools, and extra capability added through skills when you actually need it.
That sounds simple, but I think it changes how the agent feels in practice. In my own "Hello" level prompt checks, Pi was coming in under ~1500 tokens, while heavier setups I compare against often feel closer to ~20k. Not presenting that as a formal benchmark, just the framing that made the difference obvious to me.
That is also why I built pi-telegram-bot, to use it as a daily AI driver, even while on my phone:
https://github.com/doer-ee/pi-telegram-bot
Well, it is not actually a plugin but a standalone app that calls Pi SDK
It is not meant to make Pi bigger. It is just a thin private Telegram remote for people already running Pi locally and wanting a small control surface when away from keyboard.
Curious how other Pi users think about this.
