@mariozechner/pi — Deploy and manage vLLM LLM GPU pods, DataCrunch/RunPod setup, and CLI agent interface. Use when spinning up GPU instances, configuring vLLM, managing tensor parallelism, or interacting with models via pi agent. Use for "pi pods setup", "vLLM memory", "Qwen GLM models pi", even without naming the pods package.

Pi Pods
Grounding
pi-mono/packages/pods/README.md — installation, pod management, model commands, GPU multi-assignment, and pre-defined models.
pi-mono/packages/pods/src/ — CLI commands implementation if needing deeper args validation.
Invariants
Auto-assignment: When running multiple models on the same pod, pi automatically assigns them to different GPUs.
Parameter Ignorance: When passing custom vLLM args with --vllm, the default CLI shortcuts for --memory, --context, and --gpus are ignored.
Workflows
Setup Pod: Use pi pods setup <name> "<ssh>" along with --mount for shared NFS storage (DataCrunch) or network volumes (RunPod).
Start Pre-defined Model: Use pi start <model> --name <name> for known agentic models (Qwen, GLM, GPT-OSS). The tool calling parsers are automatically configured.
Custom vLLM Args: Pass specific settings (e.g. tensor parallelism) using --vllm --tensor-parallel-size <N>.
Anti-patterns
Do not manually construct tool-calling parsers for pre-defined models like Qwen or GLM; pi configures hermes or glm4_moe automatically.
Do not assume models are downloaded redundantly on DataCrunch; emphasize the NFS shared models path (/mnt/hf-models).
