But the question remains: isn't something like pi.dev good enough for this? Or are you using custom harness to describe the scripts/skills/etc that you create yourself?

I am cheerfully using Opencode and pi.dev on a local model without thinking about any of that stuff, just running it straight out of the box and it's working great. I have access to an RTX6000 on a remote machine so using it for 'free' and it's replaced Claude for my personal projects. It gets stuck occasionally and gets things wrong from time to time, but so does everything.

No. All agents out there basically operate on skills, mempry, and tools. There are almost none that do context injection with every prompt. You basically need an external system that modifies every submitted prompt with additional context

Okay, just started to read up an Agentic Context Engineering (ACE) & Co,: really interesting. Thank you for the explanation!

Yes, this is a straightforward extension for Pi to have it continually steer the model at every turn. You could write your own with Pi itself or use an existing extension.
