Each package can be installed individually:
pi install npm:@pi-lab/permissionsOr pin to a git ref:
pi install git:github.com/anthod0/pi-lab@mainAll three tools can be useful, depending on the task:
| Tool | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
grok_build |
Reading X posts/threads with rich context; natural-language X search | Usually gives the most complete context, including replies, quotes, media details, views, and bookmarks. Native X search typically returns about 10 posts per search call. |
xsearch |
Broader X search with many citation URLs | Uses the xAI API-key workflow and is better when you need more search results/citations rather than deep thread context. |
webfetch |
Fast, simple fetch of a single X post body | Usually faster and more deterministic, but returns less context than Grok Build. |
