Minimal harness
The nucleus of Pi: modes, context, sessions, and a deliberate refusal to become a bloated suite.
In this framing, Pi is treated as an exhibited body of work rather than a live product surface. The emphasis shifts toward provenance, classification, and curatorial interpretation: what each layer represents, how artifacts relate, and why the ecosystem matters historically.
The nucleus of Pi: modes, context, sessions, and a deliberate refusal to become a bloated suite.
Skills, prompts, extensions, and themes circulate as reusable artifacts rather than as one sanctioned workflow.
Queues, scripts, RPC, and swarms show how the ecosystem escalates from a local loop into operational throughput.
TUI, canvas, notification, and browser surfaces demonstrate that interface is treated as an overlay, not the core identity.
Redaction, boundaries, and auditability arrive as explicit disciplines once power and autonomy increase.
Pi already behaves like a collection more than a monolith. Catalog language makes that truth visible and gives each layer an archival dignity.
