Anyone else using coding agents as general-purpose AI agents?

I’ve been using Pi / coding-agent SDK for non-coding work: document KBs without vector DBs, structured extraction from 100+ PDFs, and database benchmarking by having the agent write and run Python. The pattern is strange but consistent: give the agent read/write/bash tools and workflows I would normally pipeline start collapsing into agent loops. RAG becomes “read the index, choose files, open them.” ETL becomes “write script, run script, inspect, retry.” I’ve pushed this to ~600 documents so far and it still holds up.
