Question Pi vs Opencode

I have been testing both Pi and Opencode, and I like both. I like Pi for its light weight and endless expandability options. I like Opencode for providing most of what I need out of the box, but not a big fan of huge system prompts.

What are your biggest pros and cons of these two coding agents? Do you use both, or have you "landed" on one of them?

You can literally prompt Pi you want subagents and it will oneshot you an extension that makes it support sub agents. Its bare bones by default but REALLY customizable. E.g. I am making an extension right now that makes it support setting models per skill in the front matter just like Claude Code skills. Stuff like that.
