OMP has this, it's called "/shake" where bloat from tool calls and such is turned into an artifact ref instead of remaining in the context. There are other pruning or compaction strategies you can configure too. You can also use "/btw" to have side tangent conversations with the current context but with the benefit that it will not bloat your current context after the tangent is done. I wish other harnesses were prioritising this sort of flexibility with context management, but they're likely more incentivised on optimising their cache rates https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi
In How Compaction Works in Pi
None of that is necessary. It’s like people who install Obsidian and then spend weeks obsessing over the “top ten must-have plugins” for the ecosystem instead of just using it as it’s intended: as a tool to take notes. The purpose of a coding LLM is basically to assist with building something. So start with an actual concrete goal: something you want to build. Maybe even take a past project and try to recreate it, but this time using an LLM-augmented workflow. Don’t get bogged down in a bunch of orchestration/MCP/skills/etc. - keep it simple and expand as you go. The best thing you can do is actually use these tools to help you develop an intuitive sense of their strengths and weaknesses. You don’t need to watch videos or tutorials. Grab something a basic agent harness like oh-my-pi [1], throw $30–50 on OpenRouter, and start playing with

In Ask HN: How to Start with LLMs/Vibecoding?
I replaced Raycast recently with Sol[0], but SuperCmd[1] is also really good. And I’m testing Helium Browser[2]. It’s based on Chromium, but has changed a lot under the hood and I’ve been daily driving it. Also replacing CapCut with OpenCut[3]. I’ve also completely ditched Codex CLI with Pi[4] and now am trying OMP[5]. 0. https://github.com/ospfranco/sol 1. https://github.com/SuperCmdLabs/SuperCmd 2. https://github.com/imputnet/helium 3. https://github.com/OpenCut-app/OpenCut 4. https://github.com/earendil-works/pi 5. https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi
In The zero-cost fallacy: open-source software in the agentic era
I use both the openai subscription and the opencode go subscription. I use the go subscription for my personal work and the openai subscription for my consulting work. The differences between the models are minimal, but I usually stick with gpt-5.4-mini, gpt-5.4, mimo-pro-2.5, deepseek-v4-pro. These latter ones have way more usage than even using 5.4-mini so I tend to use them in personal projects for that reason. My harness is https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi. I trust it...enough. It updates very frequently so as a safe guard I run it sandboxed with https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap so it can only access the project folder and some whitelisted config files
In GLM-5.2 is a step change for open agents
