Picadillo

picadillo noun \ˌpē-kə-ˈdē-(ˌ)yō\

  1. A ground meat dish cooked with tomatoes and seasonings, sometimes with potatoes, olives, or raisins; served on its own or as a filling.

  2. (tech slang) A mix of pi coding agent extensions, skills, and commands combined into one cohesive workflow; modular, interoperable, and—depending on the build—

    • occasionally containing undocumented features
    • prone to “seasonal” bugs
    • held together by optimism and duct taped tokens

Etymology: From Spanish picar (“to mince, to chop”), from Vulgar Latin piccare (“to pierce”). Folk etymology proposes a secondary meaning: “to repeatedly poke reality until it tastes better.”
