# Pi Runner Test Results

## ✅ Successfully Tested

**Date**: 2026-03-05  
**Runner**: `@bunny-agent/runner-pi`  
**Provider**: OpenAI via LiteLLM Proxy (https://llm.bika.ltd)

### Test Command
```bash
npx bunny-agent run --runner pi -m "openai:gpt-4.1-mini" -- "Say 'Hello from Pi runner!' and explain what you are in one sentence."
```

### Output (Streaming Text)
```
0:"Hello"
0:"Hello from"
0:"Hello from Pi"
0:"Hello from Pi runner"
0:"Hello from Pi runner!"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed to"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed to assist"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed to assist with coding"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed to assist with coding and answer programming"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed to assist with coding and answer programming-related"
0:"Hello from Pi runner! I am an AI language model designed to assist with coding and answer programming-related questions."

```

### Features Verified

1. ✅ **Multi-provider Support** - Works with OpenAI through LiteLLM proxy
2. ✅ **Custom Base URL** - Automatically uses `OPENAI_BASE_URL` from .env
3. ✅ **Streaming Output** - Properly streams text chunks in AI SDK UI format
4. ✅ **Event Handling** - Correctly processes `message_update` events
5. ✅ **Error Handling** - Gracefully handles API errors

### Environment Configuration

Updated `.env.example` with Pi runner API keys:

```bash
# ====================================
# Pi Runner (--runner pi)
# ====================================
# Pi runner supports multiple LLM providers

# Google Gemini
GEMINI_API_KEY=

# OpenAI
OPENAI_API_KEY=
OPENAI_BASE_URL=  # Optional: for proxies

# Anthropic (for Pi runner)
# ANTHROPIC_API_KEY= (same as Claude runner)

# Azure OpenAI
AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=
AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=
AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT=
```

### Current Limitations

1. **No Built-in Tools** - Pi Agent doesn't have file operations by default
   - Need to add custom tools for file/bash operations
   - This is by design - Pi is a minimal agent framework

2. **Model Names** - Must use LiteLLM proxy's model names
   - ✅ Works: `openai:gpt-4.1-mini`, `openai:gpt-4`, `openai:gpt-5`
   - ❌ Fails: `openai:gpt-4o-mini` (not in proxy)

### Next Steps

1. **Add Tools** - Implement file operations, bash execution
2. **Test Other Providers** - Try Gemini, Anthropic via Pi runner
3. **Documentation** - Add Pi runner guide to Bunny Agent docs
4. **Comparison** - Benchmark Pi vs Claude runner performance

### Comparison: Claude vs Pi Runner

| Feature | Claude Runner | Pi Runner |
|---------|--------------|-----------|
| **Provider** | Anthropic only | Multi-provider ✅ |
| **Streaming** | ✅ Full support | ✅ Full support |
| **Tools** | ✅ Built-in (file, bash, web) | ❌ Need custom tools |
| **MCP** | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes (via Pi) |
| **Proxy Support** | ✅ LiteLLM | ✅ Any OpenAI-compatible |
| **Setup** | Complex (SDK) | Simple (clean API) |

### Conclusion

Pi runner is **fully functional** and successfully integrated into Bunny Agent. It provides:
- ✅ Multi-provider LLM support
- ✅ Streaming text output
- ✅ Proxy/custom base URL support
- ✅ Clean event-based architecture

Users can now choose between:
- `--runner claude` - Full-featured, Anthropic only
- `--runner pi` - Multi-provider, minimal, extensible
