Show HN: Pi pod – run your pi coding agent in sandboxes on your own server(pipod.dev)

pi pod runs sessions of the pi coding agent (https://github.com/earendil-works/pi) in isolated sandboxes ("pods") on a server you run, so an agent can work on a repo without touching your machine.

Hi, I think I might be your target audience, I currently run pi on the server in my basement, in a minimalist docker container that gives it access to my code workspace and a config dir. Give me an idea what benefit I get on top of that by using the self-hosted pi pod?

For you the main benefit would probably be portability via the mobile app. The mobile app is not released yet but you can build it yourself from the swift/kotlin source in the github repository.

Otherwise, the main benefit here is for people to be able to clearly define all of their pi and agent config at the org, user, and project level. This most directly benefits teams of people working together, but I also find it helps me as a single user working on multiple projects on multiple devices.
