pi connects to Provely through the CLI, the REST API. The agent does the action. Provely verifies the outcome and signs a receipt. pi never holds the verifier credentials.
A person verified the pi capabilities on 2026-09-05. Agent products change monthly. Re-verify before you build.

Which surfaces does pi use?
| Surface | Support | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| MCP server | Not supported | transport |
| CLI | Supported | Runs through the shell tool of the agent. |
| SDK | Not supported | |
| REST API | Supported | Any HTTP call reaches the control plane. |
Which guidance files does pi read?
The renderer writes AGENTS.md fragment, Agent Skills SKILL.md from one source. A new agent needs a profile, not core code.
| Format | Path | Mode |
|---|---|---|
| AGENTS.md fragment | AGENTS.md | append |
| Agent Skills SKILL.md | .pi/skills/provely-outcome-verification/SKILL.md | write |
| CI gate workflow | .provely/ci/github-actions.yml | fragment |
How is a false completion claim blocked?
| Enforcement | Support | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Advisory guidance | Supported | The instruction files state the rules for every agent. |
| Lifecycle hooks | Verify at implementation | No hook events stated. |
| CI gate | Supported | provely verify --wait fails the pipeline unless the verdict is VERIFIED. |
How do I connect pi?
Connect pi to Provely
- Install the CLI.Run
npx provely --version, or download the static binary. - Write the guidance files.Run
provely init --agent pi. It writesAGENTS.md(append),.pi/skills/provely-outcome-verification/SKILL.md(write),.provely/ci/github-actions.yml(fragment). The guidance carries one rule: a successful tool call is not completion. - Add the CI gate.Run
provely verify --wait <duration>in the pipeline. The step fails unless the verdict is VERIFIED. Exit codes: 0 VERIFIED, 2 PENDING, 3 FAILED, 4 CONTRADICTED, 5 UNVERIFIABLE. - Report the verdict exactly as returned.VERIFIED: "The action is verified complete. Receipt: <id>." PENDING: "The action is accepted but not yet verified. Operation: <id>."
What else does the profile state?
- Verified 2026-09-05: pi loads AGENTS.md from ~/.pi/agent, parent directories, and the current directory. pi has no built-in MCP. Source: https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono (packages/coding-agent/README.md).
- Verified 2026-09-05: pi reads skills from .pi/skills, .agents/skills, ~/.pi/agent/skills, and ~/.agents/skills. Same source.
- pi extensions are TypeScript modules with event handlers and custom tools. An extension can wrap the SDK and can block a turn. Verify the event names at implementation before you build a hook.
- The CLI surface works through the pi tool execution.
pi keeps its action credentials, and no surface returns the verifier credentials to it. Read the credential boundary. An operation outlives the session that opened it. Read the API reference.
Which host versions does the profile cover?
>=0.80.0. The integrations team last verified the profile with 0.85.0 on 2026-09-05 (npm @earendil-works/pi-coding-agent).
