little-coder is a coding agent built as an extension layer on top of the pi agent framework, specifically tuned to work well with small local language models rather than frontier models. It provides 20 extensions and 30 skill files that augment the base pi substrate with code-focused capabilities. The system can be run locally using Ollama, includes a terminal benchmark harness (Terminal Bench) for evaluation, and targets models like Qwen 2.5 9.7B that achieve competitive results on Aider Polyglot benchmarks.
