Pi compatibility extension

Four tools that bridge common agent workflows into Pi:

• ask_user_question - prompt the user for input
• subagent - orchestrate tasks (single, parallel, chain)
• mcporter_list - list available MCP servers
• mcporter_call - call MCP server tools

Optional: MCP support via MCPorter

For MCP interoperability, install MCPorter:

npm i -g mcporter
