 # Pi Long Task
 
-Pi Long Task is a Pi extension that breaks large coding requests into tracked TODOs, executes them in isolated worker sessions, registers a real Pi TUI progress sidebar while a run is active, and optionally commits completed work.

+
+**Pi Long Task** is a long-running task runner and subagent orchestrator for the [Pi coding agent](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi). It is a Pi extension that breaks large coding requests into tracked TODOs, executes them in isolated AI worker sessions, registers a real Pi TUI progress sidebar while a run is active, and optionally commits completed work.
+
+If you are looking for a way to run long-running, multi-step, autonomous coding tasks with Pi — refactors, test coverage pushes, full feature builds, or entire product goals — this extension handles the planning, delegation, progress tracking, retries, and safe git commits for you.
 
 Use it when a coding request is bigger than one focused interaction. Pi Long Task creates or cleans up the TODO plan, hands each TODO to a fresh worker session, tracks every attempt, and keeps the run artifacts so you can inspect what happened later.

 - Worker spend is added to the main Pi `$ spent` total as cost-only usage. Token counts are not merged into the main thread because worker sessions have separate context windows, and merging their token usage would corrupt the main conversation's context statistics.
