VIBE 1

Hand a large refactor or migration to the orchestrator and let it plan and execute it as smaller validated tasks.

VIBE 2

Review and edit an auto-generated implementation plan before any code changes are made.

VIBE 3

Run read-only research or review tasks with restricted tools before committing to a full execution plan.

in plain english

pi-orchestration is an extension for the Pi coding agent that lets you hand it a large, complex goal such as a refactor, a migration, or a big new feature, and have it break that goal into smaller tasks that run somewhat on their own. Instead of one model trying to hold an entire project in its head at once, an orchestrator model plans the work, then delegates each piece to separate sub agents that only see the context they need. Before anything runs, the orchestrator writes an implementation plan as a document you can review, accept, or edit directly on disk. Once you approve it, tasks execute one after another, or in parallel if you configure that. Each task runs in its own restricted process with only the tools it needs, and a validator agent checks the result before moving on. If validation finds a problem, the task retries once with that feedback. Read only tasks like research or review get an even smaller toolset and skip some of these steps since there is nothing to check for side effects. The extension includes safeguards against agents getting stuck: idle sub agents that stop producing output are killed after a timeout, and a separate detector watches for repeating loops in both the sub agents and the main orchestrator, attempting to break a stuck pattern before giving up. You can pause execution gracefully and let the current task finish, or stop it immediately, then resume later from wherever it left off. A handful of slash commands control the whole flow, covering enabling orchestration, building or editing the plan, checking live status, approving, pausing, and resuming. Installation is a simple clone and symlink into the Pi agent extensions folder.
