## Install Pi

### Prerequisites

``` 
npm i @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent
```

### Installation

```bash
# Install using npm package
pi install npm:pi-dashscope
```

### Verify Installation

After installation, verify it's working:

```bash
# List available models
pi model list

# Check if dashscope models appear:
# dashscope/qwen3.5-plus
# dashscope/qwen3-max-2026-01-23
# etc.
```

## Configuration

### Interactive setup (recommended)

After installing, run the configure command inside pi:

```
/dashscope-configure
```

It will prompt you for your API key and save it to `~/.pi/agent/dashscope.json`. The key is applied immediately — no restart needed.

### Environment variable

Set `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY` in your environment (takes precedence over the saved config):

```bash
export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY=sk-sp-...
```

Get your API key from the [Model Studio console](https://modelstudio.console.alibabacloud.com).

## Usage

After installing, use `/model` or `Ctrl+L` in pi to select a `dashscope/...` model. Use `Ctrl+T` to toggle thinking for models that support it.
