I skimmed chad the other day. There's very little to it (by design). afaics you should be able to replicate what chad does by copying the chad system prompt into a SYSTEM.md for Pi. Then you could use it with whatever model/provider you want.
pi is a fantastic harness! they are a good default in the same way llama.cpp is. it works with everything and that is the point.
i was steering chad in the opposite direction. one model & one set of silicon -> taken to the max. swap out your CHAD_MODEL and it still runs, you just leave the drafter and the kernels behind.
