Align Pi mapping with action vocabulary

Replace Claude-Code-specific tool names in skill prose, prompt
templates, and OpenCode-facing docs with action-language descriptions
that resolve to each runtime's native tool via the per-platform refs.

Changes by category:

- Prose mentions ("Use TodoWrite to track...", "Use Task tool with
  general-purpose type") → action language ("Track each item as a
  todo", "Dispatch a general-purpose subagent")

- Prompt template headers (6 files): "Task tool (general-purpose):"
  → "Subagent (general-purpose):" — preserves the type information
  without naming Claude Code's specific dispatch tool

- DOT flowchart node labels: "Invoke Skill tool" → "Invoke the
  skill"; "Create TodoWrite todo per item" → "Create a todo per
  item"

- OpenCode INSTALL.md and docs/README.opencode.md: replace the old
  "TodoWrite → todowrite, Task → @mention" mapping (which both
  taught a vocabulary skills no longer use AND was wrong about
  @mention being a real OpenCode syntax) with an action-language
  mapping verified against the installed OpenCode CLI's tool
  inventory.

The platform-tools refs landed in Phase B already document each
runtime's resolution; skills now speak in the actions those refs
map. Tool names that genuinely belong only in the per-platform
dispatch section ("In Claude Code: Use the `Skill` tool") and the
Claude-Code-specific Bash run_in_background flag note in
visual-companion remain — those are intentional carve-outs.

+### Pi
+
+Install Superpowers as a Pi package from this repository:
+
+```bash
+pi install git:github.com/obra/superpowers
+```
+
+For local development, run Pi with this checkout loaded as a temporary package:
+
+```bash
+pi -e /path/to/superpowers
+```
+
+The Pi package loads the Superpowers skills and a small extension that injects the `using-superpowers` bootstrap at session startup and again after compaction. Pi has native skills, so no compatibility `Skill` tool is required. Subagent and task-list tools remain optional Pi companion packages.
+
 ## The Basic Workflow
 
 1. **brainstorming** - Activates before writing code. Refines rough ideas through questions, explores alternatives, presents design in sections for validation. Saves design document.

+# Pi Extension and Evals Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Add first-class Pi package support for Superpowers and add Pi as a Drill eval backend.
+
+**Architecture:** The Pi package is declared in the root `package.json` and loads existing `skills/` plus a small Pi extension. The extension injects the `using-superpowers` bootstrap into provider context as a user-role message on session startup and after compaction, with Pi-specific tool mapping. Drill gains a `pi` backend, Pi session-log normalization, and tests.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Pi TypeScript extension API, Node built-in test runner, Drill Python eval harness, pytest.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Pi package manifest and extension tests
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `package.json`
+- Create: `tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing package/extension tests**
+
+Create `tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs` with tests that import `extensions/superpowers.ts`, register fake Pi handlers, and assert:
+- root `package.json` has `keywords` containing `pi-package`
+- root `package.json` has `pi.skills: ["./skills"]`
+- root `package.json` has `pi.extensions: ["./extensions/superpowers.ts"]`
+- the extension registers `resources_discover`, `session_start`, `session_compact`, `context`, and `agent_end`
+- startup `context` injects exactly one user-role bootstrap message
+- `agent_end` clears startup injection
+- `session_compact` re-enables injection
+- the extension does not register `session_before_compact`
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run tests and verify RED**
+
+Run: `node --experimental-strip-types --test tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `extensions/superpowers.ts` does not exist and `package.json` lacks the `pi` manifest.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement manifest fields**
+
+Update `package.json` with `description`, `keywords`, `pi.extensions`, and `pi.skills` while preserving existing `name`, `version`, `type`, and `main`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement `extensions/superpowers.ts`**
+
+Create a zero-runtime-dependency extension that:
+- locates the package root from `import.meta.url`
+- reads `skills/using-superpowers/SKILL.md`
+- strips YAML frontmatter
+- appends Pi-specific tool mapping
+- exposes `resources_discover` with the skills path
+- marks bootstrap pending on `session_start` and `session_compact`
+- injects a user-role bootstrap message in `context`
+- inserts post-compact bootstrap after leading `compactionSummary` messages
+- clears pending bootstrap on `agent_end`
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run tests and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `node --experimental-strip-types --test tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs`
+
+Expected: PASS.
+
+### Task 2: Pi tool mapping reference
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `skills/using-superpowers/references/pi-tools.md`
+- Modify: `tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing test for Pi reference doc**
+
+Add assertions that `skills/using-superpowers/references/pi-tools.md` exists and documents mappings for `Skill`, `Task`, `TodoWrite`, and built-in tool names.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run tests and verify RED**
+
+Run: `node --experimental-strip-types --test tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `pi-tools.md` does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add Pi reference doc**
+
+Create `skills/using-superpowers/references/pi-tools.md` explaining Pi-native skills, optional `pi-subagents`, no canonical todo/tasklist plugin, and built-in lowercase tools.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run tests and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `node --experimental-strip-types --test tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs`
+
+Expected: PASS.
+
+### Task 3: Drill Pi backend and session log normalization
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `evals/backends/pi.yaml`
+- Modify: `evals/drill/backend.py`
+- Modify: `evals/drill/engine.py`
+- Modify: `evals/drill/normalizer.py`
+- Modify: `evals/tests/test_backend.py`
+- Modify: `evals/tests/test_normalizer.py`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing backend/normalizer tests**
+
+Add pytest coverage for:
+- `load_backend("pi")` returns `family == "pi"`
+- Pi backend command starts with `pi` and includes `-e ${SUPERPOWERS_ROOT}`
+- `_resolve_log_dir()` for Pi points under `~/.pi/agent/sessions`
+- `filter_pi_logs_by_cwd()` keeps only session files whose header `cwd` matches the scenario workdir
+- `normalize_pi_logs()` extracts `toolCall` blocks from Pi assistant session entries and maps built-in lowercase tools to canonical names
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run tests and verify RED**
+
+Run: `uv run pytest evals/tests/test_backend.py evals/tests/test_normalizer.py -q`
+
+Expected: FAIL because the Pi backend and normalizer do not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add `evals/backends/pi.yaml`**
+
+Configure the backend to run `pi -e ${SUPERPOWERS_ROOT}`, use permissive TUI readiness, `/quit` shutdown, and Pi session log location.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement Pi family support**
+
+Update `Backend.family`, `Engine._resolve_log_dir`, `Engine._collect_tool_calls`, and `normalizer.py` with Pi log filtering and normalizing.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run tests and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `uv run pytest evals/tests/test_backend.py evals/tests/test_normalizer.py -q`
+
+Expected: PASS.
+
+### Task 4: Documentation and full verification
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `README.md`
+- Modify: `evals/README.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Document Pi install and eval backend**
+
+Add Pi to README quickstart/install list and add backend entry/usage to `evals/README.md`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run verification**
+
+Run:
+```bash
+node --experimental-strip-types --test tests/pi/test-pi-extension.mjs
+uv run pytest evals/tests/test_backend.py evals/tests/test_setup.py evals/tests/test_normalizer.py -q

+# Pi Tool Mapping
+
+Skills speak in actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"). On Pi these resolve to the tools below.
+
+| Action skills request | Pi equivalent |
+| --- | --- |
+| Invoke a skill | Pi native skills: load the relevant `SKILL.md` with `read`, or let the human use `/skill:name` |
+| Read a file | `read` |
+| Create a file | `write` |
+| Edit a file | `edit` |
+| Run a shell command | `bash` |
+| Search file contents | `grep` when active; otherwise `bash` with `rg`/`grep` |
+| Find files by name | `find` or `bash` with shell globs |
+| List files and subdirectories | `ls` when active; otherwise `bash` with `ls` |
+| Dispatch a subagent (`Subagent (general-purpose):` template) | Use an installed subagent tool such as `subagent` from `pi-subagents` if available |
+| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | Use an installed todo/task tool if available, otherwise track tasks in the plan or `TODO.md` |
+
+## Skills
+
+Pi discovers skills from configured skill directories and installed Pi packages. A Superpowers Pi package should expose `skills/` through its `pi.skills` manifest entry. Pi does not expose Claude Code's `Skill` tool, but the agent should still follow the Superpowers rule: when a skill applies, load and follow it before responding.
+
+## Subagents
+
+Pi core does not ship a standard subagent tool. The `pi-subagents` package is a strong optional companion and provides a `subagent` tool with single-agent, chain, parallel, async, forked-context, and resume/status workflows. If no subagent tool is available, do not fabricate `Task` calls; execute sequentially in the current session or explain that the optional subagent capability is not installed.
+
+## Task lists
+
+Pi core does not ship a standard task-list tool. If a todo/task extension is installed, use its documented tool. Otherwise use Superpowers plan files, checklists in Markdown, or a repo-local `TODO.md` for task tracking. Older Superpowers docs may refer to `TodoWrite`; treat that as the task-tracking action above.
