Choose your experience — developer · founder · content · agency · finance · ops. Add packs. Get a focused command set, not a 500-artefact dump. Bring your own AI provider.

Try it in 30 seconds — drop one read-only subagent into any repo and watch it gate "done": @production-validator check this branch is actually done. No wizard, no lock-in, nothing else installed — the 30-second wedge ↓ is the whole first step. Full docs: event4u-app.github.io/agent-config.

Every public claim in this README is machine-checked — verify it yourself. In a market that runs on unbacked headline numbers, this one binds each claim to resolvable evidence or fails its own build.

A deep library of skills, commands, and governed rules — plus a capability router that loads the right skill on intent, and multi-agent orchestration with consensus review. The whole layer is compiled into 7+ host agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Augment, Cline, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini) with zero runtime daemon. Six role-shaped entry paths sit on top, so any host becomes a reliable team member — without locking you to a single model or vendor.

What's different

It is both deep and disciplined — and honest about what it deliberately is not:

• Depth that routes itself — a deep skill and command library, with a capability router that loads the right one on intent, not a 500-artefact context dump.
• Governance on every host — rules compiled into each tool's native format at projection time; deterministic runtime hooks added on hook-capable hosts. This config-space, host-agnostic governance is the moat (the governance advantage · enforcement by host).
• Surgical uninstall — removes only its own keys from a shared host config (matched by JSON-pointer + SHA-256), never a neighbour tool's entries.
• Pack-scoped install — writes the active pack only, not a 500-artefact dump.

What it deliberately is not — a content + governance layer, not a runtime: no background daemon, no separate state database, no self-rewriting memory, no auto-build pipeline. The host agent runs the loop; every learned change is human-reviewed; the same layer stays portable across tools. Capability without a process to babysit.

Where this comes from (honest provenance). The skills, rules, and personas are distilled from real production work on TypeScript and PHP codebases. The governance mechanics are stack-agnostic, but the domain heuristics are richest where they were forged — treat coverage on other stacks as promising, not proven, and tell us where it falls short.

Pick your profile — six entry paths

agent-config setup writes profile.id to .agent-settings.yml; each anchor below is the first-screen the wizard sends you to. One README, six entries, no role-detection guesswork.

Workflows, not raw commands

You don't memorize every command — you run a work journey. Four flows span the developer story end-to-end; each names the command you TYPE to start and the skills it composes:

Flow	Start with	The journey
🔍 Discovery	/feature:plan · /research	explore → plan → estimate → refine, before building
🔨 Implementation	/work · /implement-ticket	plan → implement → verify → commit
🔎 Review	/review-changes · /judge	self-review → judge → quality-fix → threat-model
🚢 Delivery	/commit · /pr:create	commit in chunks → open PR → answer review

Full detail — entry commands, canonical path, composed skills per flow: docs/flows.md. (agent-admin — memory / analytics / config — is platform operation, not a user-work flow.)

CHANGELOG · Upgrade to 6.0 · Breaking changes · Latest release · Discussions

_{Distribution: npm install @event4u/agent-config. Major bumps follow semver; each ships a ### Breaking entry — all majors indexed in BREAKING_CHANGES.md.}

Creative Pack — cinematic AI video. script → character-locked image → motion+audio prompt → provider render → stitched clip, with AIV_DRYRUN=true as the cost-safety default. A first-class capability inside the content / creator experience — no longer the package's headline. See /video:from-script.

Legal Pack — not legal advice. The EU/DE legal pack (contract/NDA/DPA review, triage) is a research-and-drafting aid only — it does not provide legal advice, does not replace a qualified lawyer, and must not be relied on for any concrete matter. It produces general information and general templates, never individual-case examination. Read LEGAL_NOTICE.md before use.

Full catalog — every skill, rule, command, guideline: docs/catalog.md. The headline is the experience (profile + packs) and the depth behind it.

Use it in your project

Run from a consumer repo — bootstrap via npx, the agent picks up your stack, and you ship work end-to-end. New install? Start with the Quickstart. Already installed? Supported tools shows the wired AIs; docs/featured-commands.md lists the end-to-end workflows (/implement-ticket, /work, /commit, /pr:create). Deeper tour: 2-minute demo.

Install scope. Pick one scope per machine — project-local (default, recommended for application repos) or user-global (recommended for tooling repos / dotfiles). The installer refuses a second, conflicting scope via the scope_guard pre-flight. Details: docs/contracts/install-scopes.md. Cleanup when needed: bash scripts/cleanup_other_scope.sh --confirm.

Prove it

Don't take the claims on trust — verify them. docs/proof.md is generated from source: a claim→evidence table (every public claim binds to a resolvable pointer, or CI fails), honest-null benchmarks including the runs where the package changed nothing, and a "verify it yourself" block you run on a fresh checkout. The proof page fails CI if it drifts from its sources — reproducibility is the proof. Browse it on the deployed docs site: event4u-app.github.io/agent-config.

Audit-disciplined by construction — every memory consult, decision key, and hook concern lands in agents/runtime/state/ so you can replay it. Core principles names the four invariants; What agent-config is — and what it isn't draws the scope boundary.

Contribute

Working on the package itself? Development covers the task ci pipeline, Requirements the toolchain, Maintainer telemetry the opt-in measurement loop. Source-of-truth tree is src/ (src/skills, src/rules, src/agent-src/); never hand-edit .augment/ or dist/agent-src/.

Quickstart

Try one thing in 30 seconds — before the full suite, drop in a single self-contained subagent and see the discipline on your own repo:

mkdir -p .claude/agents
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/event4u-app/agent-config/main/docs/wedge/production-validator/production-validator.md \
  -o .claude/agents/production-validator.md
# then in Claude Code:  @production-validator check this branch is actually done

production-validator is read-only and installs nothing else — it gates "done" by hunting mocks/stubs on the shipped path and demanding real-system evidence (what it does). Like it? Install the full suite:

Three steps. Five minutes. Browser wizard, no YAML by hand.

# 1. Install — on a terminal with a display, the browser wizard launches
#    automatically; the same install.py runs the real install behind it.
npx -y @event4u/agent-config init

# 2. Pick your profile + tools in the wizard, click Finish.
#    (Writes ~/.event4u/agent-config/, ~/.claude/, ~/.cursor/, …)

# 3. First real task — agent refines, plans, verifies.
/work "your first real task"

Headless / CI: init skips the GUI automatically when CI is set, stdout is not a TTY, --no-ui is passed, or an explicit --tools= selection is given — it then runs the non-interactive installer directly. Pass flags (--profile=developer --tools=claude-code,cursor); add --dry-run to preview writes. The GUI and the CLI share one installer (scripts/install.py), so both produce identical results. Reference: docs/wizard.md.

Pick specific AIs: --tools=claude-code,cursor,augment,windsurf,cline,gemini-cli,copilot,roocode,aider,codex,claude-desktop,continue (any subset). Visual picker: add --gui (loopback-bound, CSRF-gated; contract gui-wizard).

Verify hook coverage: npx @event4u/agent-config hooks:status prints the per-platform matrix (--strict for CI, --format json for tooling).

Scope (v2.5+): init writes global only — ~/.event4u/agent-config/, ~/.claude/, ~/.cursor/, …. The project tree gets agents/overrides/ only (the bridge marker was retired — ADR-020 amendment 2026-07-13; the global root resolves from ~/.event4u/agent-config). --project is maintainer-only behind AGENT_CONFIG_DEV_MODE=1 (ADR-020, dev-mode).

Migrating from a v1.x install? npx @event4u/agent-config migrate — full notes in docs/migration/v1-to-v2.md.

npm error ETARGET / No matching version found for <dep>? Re-run with a forced fresh metadata fetch:

npx -y --prefer-online @event4u/agent-config init

This happens when the project's .npmrc sets prefer-offline=true (or points at a private-registry mirror): npm resolves our dependencies against stale cached metadata that predates a recently published version. --prefer-online bypasses the cache for this run; npm cache verify fixes it permanently for that machine.

What agent-config is — and what it isn't

A content layer — skills, rules, commands, guidelines, personas — distributed via npm and projected into every supported AI tool's native config format. It follows the Agent Skills open standard.

It is not an agent runtime. The agent loop, the LLM dispatcher, and tool orchestration stay with the host tool (Claude Code, Augment, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Copilot). Think of it as a playbook and style guide for those tools — not a replacement.

In scope	Out of scope
Skills, rules, commands, guidelines, personas	Agent loop / LLM dispatcher
Multi-tool projection + condensation pipeline	Execution engine inside the package
Memory helpers (memory-add, memory-promote)	Cross-tool observability dashboard
Linters, CI, frontmatter validation against JSON-Schema (contract)	Runtime GUI / web dashboard
Skill orchestration via citations + deterministic helpers	Opinionated automatic skill-resolver (ML / relevance ranking that decides for you)
User-driven projection-time filtering by profile + packs (ADR-040)	A runtime resolver / daemon (mid-session switching — conditional, post-6.0.0)

What your agent is asked to do

Default behavior	With agent-config
Guess and edit blindly	Analyze code before changing it
Drift from project conventions	Follow detected stack conventions
Skip or invent tests	Write tests in the project's framework
Generic commit messages	Conventional Commits with scope + ticket links
Skip quality checks	Run the project's quality pipeline and fix reported errors
Open PRs without context	Structured PR descriptions from Jira / Linear / GitHub
Claim "done" without proof	Verify with real execution before claiming done

2-minute demo — /implement-ticket

The flagship command. Drives a ticket end-to-end through a fixed linear flow — and blocks on ambiguity instead of guessing.

/implement-ticket PROJ-123

The agent runs this sequence:

refine → memory → analyze → plan → implement → test → verify → report

• Refines the ticket if acceptance criteria are vague.
• Queries memory for past decisions, invariants, incidents.
• Plans the change; you confirm before any file is touched.
• Implements under minimal-safe-diff + scope-control — no drive-by edits.
• Tests (targeted first, full suite on success).
• Reviews the diff through four judges (bugs, security, tests, code quality).
• Reports changes, verdicts, follow-ups — then stops. /commit and /pr:create are suggestions, never auto-run.

Any ambiguity halts the flow with numbered options — never a silent guess. Persona comes from .agent-settings.yml (roles.active_role): senior-engineer (default), qa, or advisory (plan-only).

→ Command reference · Flow contract

Sibling — /work (free-form prompt)

Same engine, no ticket required:

/work add a CSV export endpoint to the audit-log controller

The first pass scores the prompt on five dimensions and routes on the band:

Band	Score	Action
high	≥ 0.8	Silent proceed — AC + assumptions in the report
medium	0.5–0.79	Halts with assumptions report; confirm or edit
low	< 0.5	Halts with one clarifying question on the weakest dimension

After the band gate, the flow is identical to /implement-ticket. Free-form goal → /work; ticket payload → /implement-ticket.

→ Command reference · refine-prompt skill

After the run: agent-config explain last reconstructs the trace (route · memory · council · halts · provider) — read-only, PII-scrubbed, offline. Docs

Product UI track

UI-shaped work routes to one of three directive sets — ui (full audit→design→apply→review→polish→report), ui-trivial (≤ 1 file, ≤ 5 lines: apply→test→report), mixed (backend + UI: contract→ui→stitch). Existing-UI audit is a hard gate (ui-audit-gate); polish has a 2-round ceiling with a11y precedence. Stack detection → blade-livewire-flux / react-shadcn / vue / plain.

Self-hosted MCP on Cloudflare — zero local install

Skills, commands, rules, and guidelines can be served as an MCP endpoint from your own Cloudflare Worker — any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Zed, Continue, hosted agents) talks to it over HTTP. Two auth modes: public (default, OSS read-only deploys) and bearer-auth (operator opt-in, MCP-Token Wrangler secret).

task mcp:cloud:login         # one-time, opens browser
task mcp:cloud:setup         # check → r2-create → r2-verify → whoami
task mcp:cloud:secret-put    # opt in to bearer-auth (recommended for private deploys)

→ Operator walkthrough: mcp-cloud-setup · Per-client config: mcp-client-config · Endpoints: mcp-cloud-endpoints.

Scope — Lite, not Full. The Worker serves read-only governance (skills · commands · rules · guidelines · contexts) as MCP prompts and resources, plus small read-only tools (memory_lookup, chat_history_read, list_*). It does not execute the ~112 Python scripts (linters, audits, task ci, work-engine hooks) — those require local install per Quickstart.

The built-in local stdio server is listed for discovery in the Glama MCP Registry (agent developers / contributors; requires a local checkout, not a turnkey install — see ADR-067).

Deployment posture

Shape	Status	Path
Single-user workspace	✅ today	npx @event4u/agent-config init — single machine, single user; no remote sync
Small team (3–10 people)	✅ today	Shared agents/overrides/ Git repo + shared NAS for knowledge — no code change, no new server. Recipe: docs/deploy/small-team-recipe.md
Organization mode (SSO · central policy · team context · internal connectors)	⏸ not started	Each shape gated on a recruited customer + funded audit + maintainer ADR. Posture rationale: docs/deploy/team-deployment-posture.md

The Hard Floor on organization-mode features (SSO, central policy, OAuth connectors, team-context) is preserved by design — they stay cancelled until a real first customer + funded security audit lifts them. The small-team recipe is the supported path in the meantime.

The 9.3/10 feedback round (2026-05-25) re-asked for OAuth knowledge connectors, IAM / org governance, and organization-shared memory. Each is a stable cancellation row in team-deployment-posture under the same three release gates — recruited team customer · funded audit · maintainer ADR.

Harness expectations

Three classes of install/runtime behaviour look like package bugs but are host-harness behaviour the package cannot control — sibling-plugin namespaces (codex:*, cc-gemini-plugin:*), deferred tools surfaced via ToolSearch, and cross-scope skill drift (real bug, fixed in the distribution-channels track). Diagnostics + the package's response: docs/contracts/harness-expectations.md. First step when a skill appears twice: task probe:skills.

Team reproducibility: every tool you init is recorded in agents/installed-tools.lock (committed, machine-managed). New team members run npx @event4u/agent-config sync after cloning; CI gates drift with agent-config validate. Schema: installed-tools-manifest.

Plugin-installed (optional, global)

Tool	Install
Augment CLI · Copilot CLI	Install → — rules + skills + commands, marketplace-updated

Claude Code: the marketplace plugin is deprecated (single-surface model). The npx/npm file projection now carries content and the deterministic hooks (registered in a managed ~/.claude/settings.json block by agent-config global / upgrade), so the plugin only duplicates skill/command listings while its git-SHA snapshot rots silently. Existing installs: claude plugin uninstall agent-config@event4u-agent-config — agent-config doctor flags the duplicate surface.

Keep the global install current with agent-config upgrade (latest) or agent-config refresh --global (same-version re-install); agent-config doctor flags a missing-from-PATH binary or broken hook wiring. See getting-started § Keeping current · Troubleshooting.

The command surface at a glance

Command	What it does
agent-config init	One-shot install — opens the browser wizard (recommended path or step-by-step)
agent-config init --project	Initialize a project: minimal agents/ bridge + managed .gitignore block
agent-config config	Open the configuration GUI — global settings hub (simple + advanced tiers, search, reset-to-default)
agent-config config --project	Open the project configuration surface
agent-config setup	Re-run the guided onboarding wizard (prefilled from your current state)
agent-config upgrade	Update the global install to the latest release + additively sync settings
agent-config doctor	Read-only health/drift report

Data governance & domain safety

Three domain-safety rules (domain-safety-pii, domain-safety-disclaimer, domain-safety-retention) act as per-domain output floors across ~12 areas — PII redaction (support / finance / recruiting / marketing), advice disclaimers (legal / financial / medical / consulting), retention guidance (finance / support), ops floors (logging / export). Full surface → rule → floor matrix: docs/safety.md. Beta contracts: memory-visibility-v1 · decision-trace-v1.

Maintainer telemetry (opt-in, default-off)

Local-only artefact-engagement log. Set telemetry.artifact_engagement.enabled: true in .agent-settings.yml. Records which skills / rules / commands / guidelines the agent consults during /implement-ticket / /work. JSONL under the project root, nothing uploaded. Reports: npx @event4u/agent-config telemetry:report.

Context-aware command suggestion

When a prompt matches a command's purpose ("setze ticket ABC-123 um" → /implement-ticket), the agent surfaces matches as numbered options — nothing auto-executes. Per-conversation off: /command-suggestion-off. Settings: commands.suggestion.{enabled,blocklist,confidence_floor} in .agent-settings.yml.

---

Core principles

• Analyze before implementing — no guessing, no blind edits
• Verify with real execution — no "should work"
• Challenge to improve — agents are thought partners, not yes-machines
• Strict by design — quality over flexibility
• Zero overhead by default — nothing runs until you ask for it

Troubleshooting

First stop for any install problem: agent-config doctor — it flags a missing-from-PATH binary, binary↔plugin version drift, stale orphans, and manifest issues, each with a one-line fix hint.

A new command / skill is missing in Claude Code after an upgrade

Under the single-surface model, agent-config upgrade refreshes the ~/.claude/ file projection — that IS the content surface, so a fresh session picks the new commands up directly. If commands are still missing, the usual cause is a leftover marketplace plugin: it is a git-SHA snapshot that never moves with the npm upgrade, and it shadows nothing — it just lists everything twice while lagging behind. Remove it:

claude plugin uninstall agent-config@event4u-agent-config

Then start a new Claude Code session. agent-config doctor reports a leftover plugin as claude-plugin: duplicate surface; hooks are unaffected (they live in a managed ~/.claude/settings.json block — verify with the hook-wiring check).

Skills / commands appear twice in Claude Code

Same cause as above: the deprecated marketplace plugin is installed next to the ~/.claude/ file projection, so every skill lists plain and agent-config:-prefixed. Uninstall the plugin (command above) and start a new session.

agent-config upgrade fails with Unknown argument: --no-ui

Known bug in 8.2.0: upgrade passed a --no-ui flag that the install orchestrator did not accept yet, so the run aborted early. Fixed on main; until the next release, work around it with:

AGENT_CONFIG_NO_UI=1 agent-config global   # refresh the global install, no wizard

Upgrade was interrupted (Ctrl-C, wizard closed, step failed)

Only the initial npm install -g hard-aborts an upgrade. Every later step (global re-deploy with hook registration, settings sync, wrapper + git-hook refresh) runs independently — a single failed step is reported in the end-of-run summary instead of silently skipping the rest. Re-run agent-config upgrade to converge, and use agent-config doctor to name anything left in a mixed state.

agent-config: command not found / hooks stopped firing

Runtime hooks resolve the global binary on PATH — a project-local install alone is not enough for them. Reinstall the binary:

npm install -g @event4u/agent-config
agent-config doctor   # verifies PATH + plugin wiring

Project files look stale after a package update

Project-local projections are only rewritten on an explicit refresh:

agent-config refresh             # re-apply the installed version to this project
agent-config refresh --global    # same-version re-install of the global root

More per-version steps: Migration · getting-started § Keeping current.

Development

Working on the package itself? Edit src/ (the source of truth — src/skills, src/rules, src/agent-src/), regenerate trees:

task sync             # regenerate dist/agent-src/ and .augment/
task generate-tools   # regenerate .claude/, .cursor/, .clinerules/, .windsurfrules
task ci               # full pipeline — green before PR
task test             # unit + integration tests
task dev:setup        # boot the onboarding wizard against the working tree

Invoking the CLI from a source checkout: ./agent-config <command> (the maintainer shim at the repo root → scripts/agent-config → dist/cli/agent-config.js). npx @event4u/agent-config doesn't resolve in the source repo without a prior npm link, since there's no node_modules/.bin/agent-config symlink — use ./agent-config instead. Build the TS binary with npm run build:cli if dist/cli/agent-config.js is missing.

→ Full project structure and commands: docs/development.md · CONTRIBUTING.md. Stack: TypeScript CLI/UI + Python 3.10+ build/lint scripts. MCP registry payloads render under dist/mcp/ (submission checklist).

Requirements

• Node ≥ 18 — npx @event4u/agent-config init is the canonical install path.
• Python 3.10+ — bridge stage only; missing → installer skips bridges.
• Platform: macOS 12.3+, Linux, WSL2. Git Bash needs Developer Mode for symlinks; native PowerShell / cmd unsupported. Contributors rebuilding .augment/ also need Task.
