pi-subagent

Claude Code 的一个 mod:让原生子代理用 pi 跑第三方模型(DeepSeek、GLM、Qwen、MiniMax、Gemini、GPT…),主代理(Claude)当监督者。

子代理仍是 Claude Code 自己的原生子代理:出现在 ↓ 任务列表里、原生完成通知、原生 worktree 隔离、TaskStop、SendMessage 续接都照常可用。mod 只做一件事——拦下这个子代理的模型请求,不发给 Claude,而是交给一个 pi --mode rpc 进程去跑,再把 pi 的最终答案作为"模型回复"交回引擎。

  • 模型范围:子代理只能用你在 pi 里配置的 scoped models(enabledModels,即 /scoped-models),清单连同上下文长度、思考、图片能力一起写进 Agent 工具描述,主代理据此挑模型;清单外的模型直接拒绝。不指定时用 pi 的 defaultModel。
  • @default:subagent_type: "general-purpose@default" 明确表示“用 pi 当前的默认模型”(每次启动时重新读 pi 的 defaultModel,不是会话开始时的快照),可再接思考强度 @default:high。Agent 工具描述里告诉主代理:用户没点名模型时就用 @default,不必每次手动交代模型。
  • 运行中纠偏:子代理运行时 SendMessage 给它,会变成 pi 的 RPC steer,在它当前这批工具调用结束后读到。
  • 续接:子代理结束后 SendMessage 走原生续接,接着同一个 pi 会话(mod 重载、会话重开后也能续)。
  • 停止:原生 TaskStop 会连同 pi 的整个进程树一起停掉。
  • 监督(第三方模型可能不稳定):
  • mcp__pi-subagent__subagent_activity:读子代理最近的公开活动(文字、工具调用与结果、模型报错和重试),支持游标翻页和单条详情。
  • mcp__pi-subagent__watch_subagent:每隔 N 秒把子代理新增的活动推给主代理;主代理正忙时并入当前这一轮,空闲时唤醒它。
  • worktree 隔离(isolation: "worktree"):引擎默认从 origin/main 建 worktree,而不是主会话当前分支。mod 在 pi 第一次启动前,若 worktree 干净,就把它 reset --hard 到主会话当前的 HEAD 提交(主会话的仓库在 Agent 调用时记下;主仓里未提交的改动不会带进去);做不到时(有改动、reset 失败)如实告诉 pi。续接时不再 reset。pi 会被告知 worktree 路径和“别碰主仓、改完在该分支上提交”,答案末尾带 [worktree · 路径 · branch 分支]。找不到该 worktree(例如引擎已把无改动的 worktree 清掉)时拒绝运行,不会回落到别的目录,答案里说明原因(续接时建议另起一个子代理)。Claude 自己跑的子代理仍用引擎原生的 worktree(基于 origin/main)。
  • 长命令不会被判卡死:pi 跑一条编译/测试可能几分钟没有任何输出,而引擎对 600 秒没有进展的子代理会判卡死。启动 pi 的包装脚本每 20 秒往 stderr 打一行心跳,pi 有工具在跑时,mod 把它转成一个空的 thinking 块交给引擎(只显示、不记录)。pi 没有工具在跑却一直不出声(模型挂住)时不发心跳,照旧 600 秒后被判卡死。
  • 只读类型:Explore、Plan、claude-code-guide 只给 pi read,grep,find,ls 四个工具,改不了文件。
  • pi 过程可见:从 ↓ 打开一个 pi 子代理时,提示框上方的区域实时显示它的模型、状态和最近几步(文字、工具调用与结果、报错和重试),正常颜色;切回主对话就收起。每一步也写进子代理自己的对话记录(模型不读),ctrl+o 能看到完整记录(引擎画成暗色)。
  • 真实用量:答案末尾附一行 pi 报告的真实 token 用量(原生通知里的 token 数由引擎自己估算,不准)。

用法

model 参数是 Claude Code 固定的枚举(只能填 Claude 模型),所以第三方模型写在 subagent_type 的 @ 后缀里:

想要写法
pi 的默认模型subagent_type: "general-purpose@default"(或省略 @)
指定模型subagent_type: "Explore@codebuddy/deepseek-v4.1-flash"
指定思考强度subagent_type: "general-purpose@minimax-cn/MiniMax-M3.1-Flash-Preview:high",或加 effort: "high"
改用 Claude填 model: "haiku"(或 sonnet / opus / fable),或 subagent_type: "general-purpose@claude"

模型名可省略价格倍率后缀、不区分大小写,唯一时可只写模型名。fork 和 isolation: "remote" 始终由 Claude 跑。

平时不用手写:主代理会从工具描述里的清单挑模型,你只要说"这个用 codebuddy 的 deepseek"。

要求

依赖说明
Claude Code需支持 Claude Mods(function hooks);在 2.1.302 上开发和验证
pi在 PATH 里;按 pi 1.2.x 的 RPC 命令和 JSON 事件格式编写,其他版本启动时会提示
pi 的 scoped models~/.pi/agent/settings.json(或项目的 .pi/settings.json)里的 enabledModels;为空时不限制模型

子代理会话存放在 ~/.pi/claude-subagents/。

安装

在 Claude Code 的终端会话里输入:

/plugin install pi-subagent --marketplace yu1745/claude-code-pi-subagent

提示 Add marketplace? 时输入 y,再选择安装范围(user 即对所有会话生效)。

在 shell 里:

claude plugin install pi-subagent --marketplace yu1745/claude-code-pi-subagent

桌面应用里:点输入框旁的 +,选 Plugins → Add marketplace,填 yu1745/claude-code-pi-subagent,再 Add plugin。

本地开发 / 试用

git clone https://github.com/yu1745/claude-code-pi-subagent.git
claude --plugin-dir ./claude-code-pi-subagent
claude plugin test ./claude-code-pi-subagent    # 单元测试 + 引擎级集成测试

已知限制

  • 原生完成通知里的 subagent_tokens 由引擎自己计算,不反映 pi 的真实用量;真实用量看答案末尾那一行或 subagent_activity。
  • 主代理空闲时,watch 通知需要以插件提示的形式单独开一轮来唤醒它(在对话记录里折叠成一行,ctrl+o 展开)。
  • fork(要继承 Claude 的上下文)和 remote(云端运行)无法用 pi。

50
51Subagents here think with pi on third-party models by default: the engine runs the agent as usual (tasks list, worktree, notification, resume), and its model is pi. A fork, a remote agent, or a call that sets the \`model\` parameter (sonnet, opus, haiku, fable) or appends \`@claude\` to subagent_type runs on Claude instead.
52
53An agent with \`isolation: "worktree"\` that pi runs gets its own git worktree. Before pi starts, the mod points it at the session's current HEAD commit (uncommitted changes in the main checkout are not in it), tells pi the worktree's path and to stay inside it, and ends the answer with the worktree's path and branch. A Claude-run agent's worktree is Claude Code's own, created from origin/main.`

58- Supervision (opt-in; third-party models can drift or stall): mcp__pi-subagent__subagent_activity reads its recent activity without consuming anything; mcp__pi-subagent__watch_subagent sends you periodic activity evidence while it works. Do not poll by default.`
