agentic-loadout

One command that gives a project a coding-agent setup, for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex.

• Memory: agemem keeps current state, decisions and durable notes in memory/, so a new session picks up where the last one stopped. For Claude Code, agemem (0.1.1+) also disables Claude's built-in auto-memory for the project, to avoid double memory.
• Spec-driven development: the sdd-feature skill takes a feature through design, spec, tests, implementation and an independent grade, with an approval gate between phases.
• Subagents: an orchestrator delegates to architect (design), coder (implementation), code-grader (review) and utility (commits, checks), following one shared workflow.
• Language coders: coder-python, coder-typescript and coder-swift come with code-navigation MCPs, so they rename and refactor through the compiler or type checker instead of grep and sed.

Each piece is handed to the tool that already installs it; agentic-loadout only writes what no tool covers.

Needs uv (agemem, Python coder) and Node.js 20+ (skill, TypeScript coder).

--python 3.12 makes uvx use a tested Python instead of whichever is newest on your machine. For a reproducible run, also pin the version: uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout@0.1.0 .

Use

uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout .                  # detects your clients and languages, asks before installing
uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout . --dry-run        # prints the commands and the files they write; changes nothing
uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout . --personal-settings --yes

Everything stays inside the project. Nothing is written to ~/.claude, ~/.codex, ~/.cursor or any user-wide config. The two exceptions: agemem keeps its own private ~/.config/agemem/config.yaml for the API key, and the Swift coder's binary is installed with Homebrew, only after you say yes (even with --yes; --allow-brew skips the question).

Rules go to AGENTS.md, or to CLAUDE.md if the project already has one that isn't just an @AGENTS.md import. Each section sits between <!-- agentic-loadout:begin NAME --> markers, so re-running updates it in place.

What gets installed

Worktrees

The worktree skill runs a task in an isolated git worktree. /worktree create branches from the current branch and sets up the environment, save commits, apply merges into the branch the worktree came from, and delete removes it. agentic-loadout adds a short rule to your instructions: when your checkout has uncommitted changes the agent didn't make, it asks once whether to use a worktree, and after the task it offers save, apply and delete. It never merges, pushes or deletes without your yes. Leave it out with --without worktree.

Language coders

A coder is one unit: the coder-<lang> subagent, the language's navigation MCP and a routing rule. They are always installed together, because without the subagent's instructions the agent doesn't use the MCP.

uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout coders                    # detect languages, confirm, install
uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout coders python typescript  # or name them (python, typescript, swift, all)
uvx --python 3.12 agentic-loadout coders --list             # catalogue, what is detected, what is installed

Keeping it out of git

--personal-settings writes rules to CLAUDE.local.md (Claude Code only; it starts with @AGENTS.md if you have one), Claude settings to .claude/settings.local.json, and adds every file the run created to .git/info/exclude. A file that already existed and was changed (for example a committed .mcp.json) can't be hidden by git, so the final message lists it with your options. With Cursor or Codex selected the rules go to AGENTS.md and you are told. --git-exclude does the exclusion without the personal files.

Flags

--tools claude,cursor,codex · --with python,swift,typescript|all · --without sdd|agemem|agents|coders|worktree · --memory-model jev|qsiv · --no-hooks · --model ALIAS · --claude-compat · --dry-run · --no-input · --yes · --allow-brew · --force. With --no-input and no --yes/--with, no language coder is installed and the command to run is printed.

The Jev key is never asked for here. Set AGEMEM_JEV_API_KEY or edit ~/.config/agemem/config.yaml.

Development

uv run pytest

The design and the decisions behind it are in PLAN.md. The real Homebrew path can only be checked on macOS.
