Quick Start

Run without a global install:

uvx --from ai-init ainit my_project

Or install the CLI:

# Recommended
uv tool install ai-init

# Or
pipx install ai-init

ainit my_project
# equivalent: ainit init my_project

Requires Python 3.10+ and uv on your PATH (the scaffold uses uv init / uv add).

Interactive CLI Experience

ainit walks you through the stack, then creates the project:

🛠️ Creating project in: ./my_project

✨ Project created successfully!

1. cd my_project
2. Fill in the keys in the .env file
3. Run the tests: uv run pytest
4. Try it out: uv run python main.py

Defaults: Pytest, Ruff, type-check None, agent rules All.

Scaffold Options

What gets installed

• Framework / provider: matching PyPI packages via uv add (LangChain adapters only for LangChain / LangGraph / Deep Agents).
• Storage packages today: Qdrant → qdrant-client; PostgreSQL → psycopg2-binary, pgvector, sqlalchemy; Redis → redis. ChromaDB / Neo4j are selectable for project intent; wire-up packages can be extended later.
• Observability packages today: LangSmith, Arize Phoenix, Loguru. OpenTelemetry is selectable; package wiring can be extended later.
• Ruff: uv add --dev ruff + [tool.ruff] in pyproject.toml.
• Pyright: uv add --dev basedpyright + [tool.pyright] (Pylance reads the same config).
• Agent rules: markdown/rules files teaching agents to use uv / uv run (never pip), plus the chosen test/lint commands.
• .env: provider key placeholders (OPENAI_API_KEY, GOOGLE_API_KEY, DEEPSEEK_API_KEY, etc.).

Features

• uv-native scaffold — uv init + uv add / uv add --dev
• Broad agent framework menu — including a pure SDK path with None
• Providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, DeepSeek, Gemini, Multi-Provider
• Day-one tooling — Pytest or unittest smoke tests; optional Ruff and Pyright
• Agent-ready docs — optional AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules
• Modular layout — src/{agent,tools,models,prompts,storage,utils,api} + tests/

Post-Setup Workflow

cd my_project
# edit .env with real API keys

Tests (depends on what you chose):

uv run pytest
# or
uv run python -m unittest

Lint / format (if Ruff was selected):

uv run ruff check .
uv run ruff format .

Type check (if Pyright was selected):

uv run basedpyright

Run:

uv run python main.py

Developing ainit

This repository (the CLI itself) uses uv + Ruff + Pytest. CI runs on every push/PR to main.

git clone https://github.com/mpraes/ainit.git
cd ainit
uv sync --extra dev

uv run ruff check src tests
uv run ruff format --check src tests
uv run pytest

Local CLI against your checkout:

uv run ainit my_project
# or
PYTHONPATH=src python -m ainit.cli my_project

Releases: bump version in pyproject.toml, merge to main, then tag vX.Y.Z (see .github/workflows/release.yml).

Contributing

1. Fork and create a feature branch.
2. Use uv for dependencies (uv add / uv sync) — not pip.
3. Keep changes typed and covered by tests where practical.
4. Run uv run ruff check src tests, uv run ruff format src tests, and uv run pytest before opening a PR.
5. Open a Pull Request against main.
