Summary

cmux vm agent --agent pi worked, but the Machines panel's Open Cloud Agent menu, vm.cloud_agent_open, and cmux vm prompt --open pi rejected Pi with invalid_params … (claude|codex|opencode). All three resolve the agent through CloudAgentSkillLauncher.CodingAgent, which had no Pi case.

CodingAgent now has pi:

  • It starts as pi "<kickoff prompt>". Pi's README documents that form as interactive mode with an initial message; pi -p would print one reply and exit.
  • Its display name is "Pi", from the new catalog key machines.agent.pi. That key has en and ja entries and is recorded as a brand alongside Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode.

The menu and the socket error message build their lists from allCases, so they pick Pi up without further changes. The CLI help (both copies), docs/cli-contract.md and the cmux-cloud-vm skill reference now list Pi too.

Pi's credentials: the issue asked how Pi authenticates on a VM. This launcher doesn't run the agent on a VM. openAgent opens a local terminal (surfaceNewTerminal(machine: .local, …)) that reaches the machines through cmux vm. So Pi uses the Mac user's own Pi setup, the same as the other three agents, and no VM credential forwarding is involved. If Pi isn't installed locally, the terminal reports pi: not found, again the same as the other agents.

vm.cloud_agent_open stays off the cmux ssh relay allowlist; this change doesn't touch RemoteRelayCommandPolicy.

Fixes #14478.

Out of scope, noticed while here: the existing machines.agent.codex and machines.agent.opencode entries were machine-translated as ordinary words in some locales (fr "Manuscrit", zh-Hant "法典", es "código abierto"), even though both are recorded as brand omissions.

Testing

  • CloudAgentSkillLauncherTests.piIsALaunchableCloudAgent (test commit fe2fb2e) checks that CodingAgent(rawValue: "pi") resolves, is in allCases, has argv ["pi", prompt], and is named "Pi". The test target compiles locally (./scripts/test-unit.sh … build-for-testing: TEST BUILD SUCCEEDED). The app-hosted test runs in this PR's CI; it wasn't executed locally.
  • Checked live against the real socket method:
    • A tagged build of main returns invalid_params: vm.cloud_agent_open requires agent (claude|codex|opencode). for cmux vm prompt --open pi.
    • The tagged build of this branch (fix-14478-cloud-agent-pi, 95c621c) returns OK opened pi with the cmux-cloud prompt. The new terminal ran pi '<kickoff prompt>', which stopped at pi: not found because Pi isn't installed on that Mac.
    • An unknown agent is still rejected, with Pi now in the list.
  • ./scripts/localize-changes and python3 scripts/localization_catalog.py check: 0 parity errors. python3 scripts/verify-local.py --swift-changed origin/main: 13/13 checks pass.

Checklist

  • Behavior changes have added or updated tests
  • Localization audited: machines.agent.pi has en and ja entries with a brand omission record. No web copy names these agents.
  • Docs updated (CLI help, docs/cli-contract.md, cmux-cloud-vm skill reference)
  • Reviewed with a subagent before merge

Summary by cubic

Offers Pi in the Machines "Open Cloud Agent" menu and vm.cloud_agent_open / cmux vm prompt --open pi, which previously rejected it with invalid_params … (claude|codex|opencode). The menu and socket error message build their agent lists from allCases, so they pick the new agent up automatically.

  • Launches Pi as pi "<kickoff prompt>" (interactive mode with an initial message; pi -p would print one reply and exit) in a local terminal, using the Mac user's own Pi setup — no VM credential forwarding is involved.
  • Adds the machines.agent.pi catalog key (en and ja, registered as a brand) so Pi displays as "Pi".
  • CLI help, docs/cli-contract.md, and the cmux-cloud-vm skill reference now list Pi; vm.cloud_agent_open stays off the cmux ssh relay allowlist.

Written for commit 95c621c. Summary will update on new commits.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The cloud coding agent launcher now supports Pi, including its display name and prompt argument mapping. CLI help and documentation list Pi alongside Claude, Codex, and OpenCode.

Changes

Pi Agent Support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Add Pi to the cloud agent launcher
Sources/Cloud/CloudAgentSkillLauncher+CodingAgent.swift, Resources/Localizable.xcstrings, scripts/localization-allowed-omissions.json, cmuxTests/CloudAgentSkillLauncherTests.swift
CodingAgent includes Pi, displays its localized name, and launches it with the prompt as a positional argument. The localization entry and omission classification are added. A test checks Pi resolution, allCases, launch arguments, and display name.
Update agent lists
CLI/CMUXCLI+VMHelp.swift, CLI/cmux.swift, docs/cli-contract.md, skills/cmux-cloud-vm/references/sidebar-parity.md
CLI help, the documented CLI contract, and the sidebar parity reference list Pi as an available agent.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 95c62

Pi launch support appears mergeable with a bounded localization fix: add the missing catalog locale values before release.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 95c62

The new choice uses the existing local-terminal path and its controls; no new remote access path or credential forwarding was found. Its behavior still depends on the user's installation and local access settings.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The added execution choice runs under the local user's terminal context, not on a cloud VM. Its effective access depends on that user's Pi installation and environment.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Socket callers can now select Pi through the existing enum validation. Relay-originated requests undergo separate authorization, and the relay schema does not admit the cloud-agent-open method.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — The shared terminal-creation path ends its local mutation marker on success and error. Pi adds no distinct cleanup path; skill installation remains outside that terminal operation.

Explanation

Issue #14478 requires Pi support in the cloud launcher and vm.cloud_agent_open, including ["pi", prompt], localized name, menu membership, and updated agent validation. The reviewed code adds CodingAgent.pi, the Pi argv, the machines.agent.pi localization, and the Pi test. The reported allCases-based socket validation therefore supports Pi acceptance. The linked acceptance also requires a test for the socket method's handling of pi. The added test piIsALaunchableCloudAgent checks enum resolution, allCases, argv, and display name, but it does not call or validate vm.cloud_agent_open. The PR description documents that the launcher uses the local Mac setup and does not forward VM credentials.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 4 functions across 3 files. (5 skipped: 4 unsupported, 1 too large.)

Full details: Cmux User-Facing Error Privacy

Explanation

The PR adds pi to CodingAgent.allCases. For an invalid vm.cloud_agent_open request, the socket now returns the user-facing API error vm.cloud_agent_open requires agent (claude|codex|opencode|pi). (Sources/Cloud/VMClientSocketCommands.swift:504-508). The product CLI calls this method and SocketClient.sendV2 formats the returned error for the user (CLI/cmux.swift:5735-5738; CLI/SocketClient+V2.swift:67-103). Pi is an upstream agent name, and this is not a user-configured vendor. The menu and help additions are not errors, but the changed enum activates the provider names in the API error body.

Resolution

Keep Pi in the menu and advanced help text, but make invalid vm.cloud_agent_open responses provider-neutral. For example, return vm.cloud_agent_open requires a supported agent. Choose an agent from the Open Cloud Agent menu or run cmux vm prompt --help. Do not construct the error text from CodingAgent.allCases or otherwise echo upstream agent names in generic user-facing error output.

Full details: Cmux Full Internationalization

Explanation

The PR adds the user-facing machines.agent.pi menu label through String(localized:defaultValue:), but its new Resources/Localizable.xcstrings entry contains only en and ja. The repository’s canonical macOS locale set is en, de, fr, ar, es, zh-Hant, zh-Hans, ko, and ja; the new entry is missing de, fr, ar, es, zh-Hant, zh-Hans, and ko. The brand omission record does not provide the required translated catalog entries.

Resolution

Add reviewed, locale-appropriate machines.agent.pi translations to Resources/Localizable.xcstrings for de, fr, ar, es, zh-Hant, zh-Hans, and ko. Do not use placeholder or unreviewed copied-English values solely to fill locale slots. Keep the localization API and matching key aligned.
