I’m also looking for tips. I feel like I get the gist, but if I sat down to use it, I don’t know what I want to start with. Like, I know it’s customizable, but what’s the on-ramp so I can figure out what that looks like?

I mostly use Oh My Pi.

Oh My Pi comes preloaded with most stuff you need, so there's not much need to add extensions. https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi

So Pi is a lot of fun. I’ve been working on Volt, a fork of Pi, mostly out of my frustrations with remote development. I expanded out the existing RPC and built a mobile app around it.

It kind of just gets with how you creative you want to be about it.

I run it with a single extension to give it web search access, and then I have a few skills for reviewing and planning. You really don't need that much IMO

If you can't find a use for it, then don't use it. So easy. 99% of AI related things are mostly hype and totally useless. Adult childrin having their shiny new gadgets make them feel 14 year old again and again.

You use it, then something bugs you, then you find an extension that solves the problem, or tell an agent to fix it for you by making your own extension.

It's kinda a tinkerer hobby IMO. I like the freedom, but at the end of the day, it's still just a harness.
