pi-hub

Interactive installer for Pi coding agent packages — browse, search, and install pi extensions without typing pi install ....

Inspired by vercel-labs/skills: one command, interactive multi-select, sensible defaults.

Usage

npx @bacnh85/pi-hub                      # browse @bacnh85 catalog, multi-select, install
npx @bacnh85/pi-hub add pi-plan          # install a curated package by shorthand
npx @bacnh85/pi-hub add owner/repo       # install from a git repo
npx @bacnh85/pi-hub find memory          # search curated catalog + npm keywords:pi-package
npx @bacnh85/pi-hub list                 # show installed packages
npx @bacnh85/pi-hub remove pi-plan       # uninstall
npx @bacnh85/pi-hub update               # pi update --extensions

Shorthand resolution (add)

| Input | Resolves to | |---|---| | pi-plan | npm:@bacnh85/pi-plan (curated catalog lookup) | | @scope/pkg | npm:@scope/pkg | | owner/repo | git:github.com/owner/repo | | npm:…, git:…, https://… | passthrough to pi install |

Flags

| Flag | Description | |---|---| | -l, --local | project-local install (.pi/settings.json) instead of user scope | | -y, --yes | skip confirmation | | --json | machine-readable output (find) |

How it works

pi-hub is a thin discovery + selection layer on top of the pi CLI — pi install / pi remove do the actual package management. Sources:

• Curated catalog — the @bacnh85 monorepo packages, bundled as catalog.json.
• General discovery — npm registry search for keywords:pi-package, Pi's official package convention. Falls back to catalog-only when offline.

@bacnh85/pi-hub itself is not a pi package (nothing registers into the agent); it's a standalone zero-dependency CLI.

Requirements

• Node ≥ 20
• pi on PATH (install)
