pi-autoresearch
Autonomous experiment loop extension for pi
The Lens
Pi-autoresearch adds that capability. You define an experiment, walk away, and it loops through modify-test-evaluate cycles until it converges on a result.
This is the same autonomous research pattern as ARIS and autoresearch, but built specifically for pi.dev's ecosystem. The integration is tighter because it's native to the platform rather than a bolt-on. MIT licensed, TypeScript.
The catch: pi.dev has its own pricing model, and autonomous loops burn through whatever credits or API calls pi charges for. The homepage points to pi.dev/pricing, which means there's a paid component to the platform this runs on. And it's locked to pi.dev. If you switch to Claude Code or Codex, you can't take this with you.
Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid
fully freeThe extension itself is fully open source under MIT. No paid tier for pi-autoresearch. However, it runs on pi.dev, which has its own pricing structure. Check pi.dev/pricing for the platform costs.
The tool is free, but the platform it runs on may not be.
Extension is free. pi.dev platform costs are separate; check their pricing.
