$ pi update Powered by Pi agent
Simple. Fast. Ready to work.
Bitlab pairs the lightweight Pi agent runtime with a local-first workspace that feels quick, clear, and easy to use — sessions, files, and credentials stay on your machine.
Desktop · WebUI / Open source under Apache-2.0
The real workspace.
Ready for real work.
Move from conversation to finished artifacts, connect the tools you already use, and keep reusable workflows close at hand — all inside Bitlab.
From a prompt to a working artifact
Follow the agent’s progress, inspect its file operations, and preview the finished result without leaving the session.
Connect external tools
Manage MCP servers, tool availability, and connection status from one clear workspace.
Reuse the way you work
Browse, import, and enable Skills that package trusted instructions, scripts, and references.
Less ceremony.
More useful work.
Pi handles the agent loop. Bitlab gives it a calm home: local-first workspaces, explicit permissions, model connections, MCP servers, Skills, plus a browser and office tools built in.
Connect models your way
Sign in with ChatGPT Plus, use API keys for providers such as OpenAI or Anthropic (Claude), connect OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible endpoints, or run local Ollama models. One picker sets the connection, model, and thinking level — and remembers your choice.
MCP connectors
Add Model Context Protocol servers per workspace over stdio, SSE, or streamable HTTP. Remote servers authorize over OAuth and refresh their own tokens; tools from an untrusted server ask before they run.
Skills for repeated work
Package instructions, scripts, and references as Skills in the open Agent Skills format — the same Skill also loads in Codex and Claude Code. Pick one from the chat, or let the model find it when the task fits.
Browser and office tools built in
The agent researches, fills forms, and extracts data in a browser pane beside the chat, with web search ready out of the box. Document tools handle PDF, Word, Excel, and slides, so everyday office work gets done without switching apps.
Good agent software should get out of the way quickly — then remember where you left off.
01Pi keeps the agent loop small and adaptable.
02Explore, Ask, Execute — permission modes stay explicit, and credentials live in your OS keychain.
03Local-first data means less setup, every time.
