Connect Pi to Busabase
Minimal, extensible terminal agent harness with native Agent Skills discovery and shell tools.
Paste this into Pi
Read https://busabase.com/SETUP_SKILL.md and set up Busabase for me. Follow it through to the end, then confirm the connection works.

Give your agent this one instruction
You end up with more than a connector: the busabase skill carries the whole approval-first workflow, the CLI, and the full API — available in every future session without re-pasting anything.
Asks first
Busabase Cloud or Personal Desktop — your call, before anything happens.
Connects
Signs you in and stores the credential itself. No API key to copy by hand.
Seeds a Base
Creates and fills your first Base, so the workspace is not an empty screen.
Installs the skills
busabase and busabase-app-creator become permanent, for every session after this.
For this agent
Pi discovers ~/.agents/skills and project .agents/skills. It intentionally has no built-in sandbox or permission system, so run setup only in a trusted repository and account.
Other ways in
This agent has no MCP client, so there is no connector to add. These routes work instead.

npm exec -y --package busabase-cli@latest -- busabase-cli login --device-codePi has no built-in MCP client, so use the Skill path. Ask Pi: Read https://busabase.com/SETUP_SKILL.md and set up Busabase for me. Pi has bash access and discovers Agent Skills from ~/.agents/skills and project .agents/skills.
For a manual fallback:
npm exec -y --package busabase-cli@latest -- busabase-cli login --device-code
npx busabase-cli bases list
Code-driven integrations can use the REST API at /api/v1.
Known gotchas
Pi does not ship a built-in MCP client. Its official package catalog lists third-party MCP adapters, but this row does not turn community extensions into a native compatibility claim.
Written from this agent's own documentation. We have not re-run every step on a real machine, so check the linked docs if a command has changed.
Let your agent do the setup
One instruction, reviewed access, and every change it makes afterwards arrives as a proposal you approve.
