pi-research is a free, local web research tool for AI coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex. It searches and scrapes the web through a stealth browser with no API key or monthly cap, coordinates a small team of sub-agents to research a question in parallel, and writes a cited report while optionally saving findings to a persistent local knowledge store for future sessions.
