- Configure periodic health checks via HEARTBEAT.md and the /heartbeat command.
Pi Heartbeat Extension
Runs a periodic health-check prompt as an isolated subprocess.
Setup
-
Enable via
--heartbeatflag,/heartbeat on, or settings.json:{ "pi-heartbeat": { "enabled": true, "intervalMinutes": 15 } } -
Create a
HEARTBEAT.mdin your project root with check items:# Heartbeat Checklist - [ ] Check git status — any uncommitted changes? - [ ] Check disk space — anything over 90%? - [ ] Review td list for blocked tasks -
If the agent responds with
HEARTBEAT_OK, the result is suppressed. Any other response is treated as an alert and sent via pi-channels.
Configuration (settings.json)
{
"pi-heartbeat": {
"enabled": false,
"intervalMinutes": 15,
"activeHours": { "start": "08:00", "end": "22:00" },
"route": "ops",
"showOk": false,
"prompt": null
}
}
- enabled: Start heartbeat on session start
- intervalMinutes: Check frequency (default: 15)
- activeHours: Only run during these hours (null = always)
- route: pi-channels route for alerts (default: "ops")
- showOk: Also send HEARTBEAT_OK results to the channel
- prompt: Custom prompt (overrides HEARTBEAT.md)

Create, review, and improve skills for Pi agents. A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md that teaches an agent specialized workflows, domain knowledge, or tool integrations. Use when asked to create a new skill, improve an existing skill, review a skill for quality, scaffold a skill from a workflow, or convert documentation into a skill. Also triggers on "make a skill for", "build a skill", "skill for [topic]", "teach the agent to", or "package this workflow as a skill".
