Open-source AI coding tool Pi 1.0 officially released

Original: The free and open-source AI coding tool 'Pi 1.0' has been officially released, adding MCP support and the ability to switch between multiple AI models.

The free and open-source AI coding tool Pi has reached its 1.0 official release. The new version adds support for MCP (Model Context Protocol), letting the assistant connect to external tools and data sources, and allows developers to switch between multiple AI models within the tool. It gives programmers a flexible, no-cost alternative to proprietary coding assistants, with the model-switching feature drawing attention as a way to avoid vendor lock-in.

Why now: Developers are interested in free open-source alternatives to commercial AI coding assistants, and MCP support plus multi-model switching are timely features.
