# Delegate work to Pi
Use the installed Pi CLI to execute the user's task. Codex owns scoping, model selection, progress tracking, and independent review; Pi owns implementation. Do not edit Pi's implementation yourself. If review finds a problem, send Pi a focused correction request and review the new diff.
## Before starting
- Run `pi --help` when the installed CLI's interface is uncertain. The installed version's help is authoritative.
- Record `git status --short --branch` in the target repository before Pi runs. Include existing user changes in the brief as protected work; ask Pi to limit its edits to the requested files and leave unrelated changes untouched.
- Use an explicit model when the user names one. Otherwise inspect available models and choose a capable option that fits the task's difficulty and cost. Do not assume a provider or model ID from memory.
- Give Pi the task, relevant constraints, and a concrete completion condition. Tell it to report changed files, checks run, failures, and any remaining uncertainty.
## Find models without exposing credentials
Start with Pi's filtered catalog:
```sh
pi --list-models
pi --list-models openai-codex
```
This lists models available to the current Pi environment, including provider, model ID, context window, output limit, reasoning support, and image support. The optional argument filters the list. Use the exact provider and model ID shown when launching Pi.
For the configured default, read only non-secret settings
