# Pi Development Workflow

# Pi Development Workflow

This guide summarizes a sane workflow for working on the pi integration in OpenClaw.

## Type Checking and Linting

* Type check and build: `pnpm build`
* Lint: `pnpm lint`
* Format check: `pnpm format`
* Full gate before pushing: `pnpm lint && pnpm build && pnpm test`

## Running Pi Tests

Run the Pi-focused test set directly with Vitest:

```bash theme={null}
pnpm test -- \
  "src/agents/pi-*.test.ts" \
  "src/agents/pi-embedded-*.test.ts" \
  "src/agents/pi-tools*.test.ts" \
  "src/agents/pi-settings.test.ts" \
  "src/agents/pi-tool-definition-adapter*.test.ts" \
  "src/agents/pi-extensions/**/*.test.ts"
```

To include the live provider exercise:

```bash theme={null}
OPENCLAW_LIVE_TEST=1 pnpm test -- src/agents/pi-embedded-runner-extraparams.live.test.ts
```

This covers the main Pi unit suites:

* `src/agents/pi-*.test.ts`
* `src/agents/pi-embedded-*.test.ts`
* `src/agents/pi-tools*.test.ts`
* `src/agents/pi-settings.test.ts`
* `src/agents/pi-tool-definition-adapter.test.ts`
* `src/agents/pi-extensions/*.test.ts`

## Manual Testing

Recommended flow:

* Run the gateway in dev mode:
  * `pnpm gateway:dev`
* Trigger the agent directly:
  * `pnpm openclaw agent --message "Hello" --thinking low`
* Use the TUI for interactive debugging:
  * `pnpm tui`

For tool call behavior, prompt for a `read` or `exec` action so you can see tool streaming and payload handling.

## Clean Slate Reset

State lives under the OpenClaw state directory. Default is `~/.openclaw`. If `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR` is set, use that directory instead.

To reset everything:

* `openclaw.json` for config
* `credentials/` for auth profiles and tokens
* `agents/<agentId>/sessions/` for agent session history
* `agents/<agentId>/sessions.json` for the session index
* `sessions/` if legacy paths exist
* `workspace/` if you want a blank workspace

If you only want to reset sessions, delete `agents/<agentId>/sessions/` and `agents/<agentId>/sessions.json` for that agent. Keep `credentials/` if you do not want to reauthenticate.
