Requirements

Runtime (using agr-opentui):

• Python 3.10+
• uv
• agr + agrx on your PATH

Build/Development (working on this repo):

• Bun 1.3.8+
• Zig (required by OpenTUI build tooling)

Build

bun run build

or

make build

This creates bin/agr-opentui.

Install

bun install

Run

bun run src/main.ts

Run it from the repo you want to manage (the current working directory is the target repo). agr.toml is expected in that target repo for agr add/remove/sync operations.

Run From Target Repo

cd /path/to/your/project
agr-opentui

agr-opentui itself does not need to contain your target repo's agr.toml.

Discover List (Embedded)

The Discover tab is bundled into the compiled binary from this repository's skills.json at build time.

To change the list, update skills.json in this repository and rebuild (make build).

To avoid repeating repo metadata, skills.json can also be a DRY repo-group array like skills-multi-repo-example.json:

• One array item per repository with this schema: repo, optional branch, handlePrefix, and skills[].
• Each skills[] item must include id and an explicit relative path ending in /SKILL.md; label is optional.
• At build time this expands into Discover entries with: handle = handlePrefix + "/" + id, preserved repo, preserved label (defaulting to handle), and explicit skillMdPath metadata for preview resolution.

Example:

[
  {
    "repo": "kasperjunge/agent-resources",
    "branch": "main",
    "handlePrefix": "kasperjunge",
    "skills": [
      {
        "id": "code-review",
        "path": "skills/development/workflow/code-review/SKILL.md",
        "label": "Code Review"
      }
    ]
  }
]

Migration from legacy skills.json:

• Existing object/array payloads are still supported.
• To migrate, group skills by repository and replace per-skill repo duplication with one repo-group entry.

Troubleshooting

• Missing agr.toml: run the app from a repo that has agr.toml, or create one.
• uv not found: install uv and ensure it’s on PATH.
• agr/agrx not found: install agr and ensure it’s on PATH.
• python not found: install Python 3.
• Discover list out of date: update this repository's skills.json and rebuild the binary.
• Discover list not updating: check the source URL/repo/branch/path and network access.
• SKILL.md preview says “not found”: the skill may not ship a SKILL.md or the path is nonstandard.

Notes

• All actions run through uv (uv run agr, uv run agrx).
• Bridge loading runs with the launcher Python when available (AGR_OPENTUI_LAUNCHER_PYTHON), with uv run python -m agr_opentui.bridge as fallback.
• Startup runs a lightweight preflight for uv, agr, and agrx; press d to run full Doctor checks.
• If agr.toml is missing in the current directory, install/remove/sync commands are blocked and a warning is shown.
• Logs are written to /tmp/agr-opentui.log.
