ctrl+code

Adaptive coding harness with differential fuzzing - transforms AI slop into production-ready code.

Configuration

ctrl+code follows platform conventions for config and data storage:

Platform	Config	Data	Cache
Linux	~/.config/ctrlcode/	~/.local/share/ctrlcode/	~/.cache/ctrlcode/
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/ctrlcode/	~/Library/Application Support/ctrlcode/	~/Library/Caches/ctrlcode/
Windows	%APPDATA%\ctrlcode\	%LOCALAPPDATA%\ctrlcode\	%LOCALAPPDATA%\ctrlcode\Cache\

Environment Variables

Override default directories:

• CTRLCODE_CONFIG_DIR: Config file location
• CTRLCODE_DATA_DIR: Session logs and persistent data
• CTRLCODE_CACHE_DIR: Conversation storage and temp files

Configuration File

Copy config.example.toml to your config directory as config.toml and fill in your API keys.

Agent Instructions (AGENT.md)

Customize agent behavior with AGENT.md files, loaded hierarchically:

1. Global (~/.config/ctrlcode/AGENT.md) - Your personal defaults across all projects
2. Project (<workspace>/AGENT.md) - Project-specific instructions

Example global AGENT.md:

# Global Agent Defaults

- Always use semantic commit messages
- Show tool results explicitly
- Prefer built-in tools over scripts

Example project AGENT.md:

# MyProject Instructions

## Architecture
- Frontend: React + TypeScript
- Backend: FastAPI + PostgreSQL

## Style
- Use async/await for all I/O
- Prefer functional components

Instructions are injected into the system prompt, giving the agent context about your preferences and project structure.
