Every request runs a fixed pipeline: refine to clarify and structure it, research to gather information in parallel, grill to cross-examine the findings, compose to write the implementation spec, critique to check it for quality and completeness.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mjasnikovs/pi-task/main/assets/hero.svg)

What it does

Local models drift. Ask one to plan a non-trivial change and it skips context, hallucinates APIs, and forgets what you actually asked. `pi-task` fixes this by **not trusting a single prompt** — it drives your request through a fixed, persisted pipeline of small, verifiable steps (shown above), then hands the main session a clean spec to execute.

Every phase boundary is written to `.pi-tasks/TASK_NNNN.md`, so a task survives a crash, a restart, or a `/task-cancel` — pick it back up with `/task-resume`.

Why it's different

Deterministic by construction. The phase order is fixed code, not a model's free choice. The orchestrator loops over a config table; each phase has one job and one output section.
Parallel research, focused output. The research phase fans out to isolated child agents — one indexing project files, others digging into APIs, context, and tooling — and **verifies to
