🚀 Why TASAK?

For AI Agent Power Users (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot)

Problem: Your AI assistant wastes tokens rediscovering your project structure, can't run your custom toolchain, and you're copy-pasting commands back and forth.

Solution: TASAK gives your AI agent a curated toolkit that understands YOUR workflow:

• 📦 Package complex workflows into simple commands ("deploy staging" instead of 10 manual steps)
• 🧠 Reduce context usage by 80% through hierarchical command discovery
• 🔧 Self-improving: Let your agent write Python plugins to extend its own capabilities!
• 🎯 Project-aware: Different tools for different projects, automatically

For Development Teams

Problem: Every developer has their own way of running tests, deployments, and dev environments. Onboarding is painful.

Solution: TASAK standardizes your team's workflow into a unified command palette:

• 🏢 Company-wide tooling in global config, project-specific in local
• 📚 Self-documenting: Your AI agent can explain and execute any workflow
• 🔒 Secure by default: Only expose what you explicitly allow
• 🚄 Zero friction: Works with any language, any framework, any toolchain

💡 Real-World Magic

# Your AI agent can now do THIS with a single command:
tasak deploy_review_app
# Instead of:
# 1. Check git branch
# 2. Build Docker image
# 3. Push to registry
# 4. Update k8s manifests
# 5. Apply to cluster
# 6. Wait for rollout
# 7. Run smoke tests
# 8. Post PR comment with URL

🌟 Killer Features

🧩 Python Plugins (NEW!)

Your AI agent can write its own tools! Just ask:

"Create a plugin that formats all Python files and runs tests"

The agent writes the Python function, TASAK automatically loads it. Mind = blown. 🤯

🎭 Three Modes of Power

cmd apps - Quick & dirty commands

format_code:
  type: cmd
  meta:
    command: "ruff format . && ruff check --fix"

mcp apps - Stateful AI-native services

database:
  type: mcp
  meta:
    command: "uvx mcp-server-sqlite --db ./app.db"

curated apps - Orchestrated workflows

full_deploy:
  type: curated
  commands:
    - test
    - build
    - deploy
    - notify_slack

🔄 Hierarchical Config

Global tools + project tools = perfect setup

~/.tasak/tasak.yaml       # Your personal toolkit
./project/tasak.yaml      # Project-specific tools
= Your AI has exactly what it needs

⚡ Quick Start

1. Install (30 seconds)

pipx install git+https://github.com/jacekjursza/TASAK.git

2. Create Your First Power Tool (1 minute)

cat > ~/.tasak/tasak.yaml << 'EOF'
header: "My AI Assistant Toolkit"

apps_config:
  enabled_apps:
    - dev
    - test
    - deploy

# One command to rule them all
dev:
  name: "Start Development"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "docker-compose up -d && npm run dev"

test:
  name: "Run Tests"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "npm test && npm run e2e"

deploy:
  name: "Deploy to Staging"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "./scripts/deploy.sh staging"
EOF

3. Watch Your AI Agent Level Up

# Your AI can now:
tasak dev      # Start entire dev environment
tasak test     # Run full test suite
tasak deploy   # Deploy to staging
# No more copy-pasting commands!

🎓 Real Use Cases

Use Case 1: Supercharge Your Claude Code

# .tasak/tasak.yaml in your project
header: "NextJS + Supabase Project"

apps_config:
  enabled_apps:
    - setup_branch
    - check_types
    - preview

setup_branch:
  name: "Setup new feature branch"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: |
      git checkout -b $1 &&
      npm install &&
      npm run db:migrate &&
      npm run dev

check_types:
  name: "Full type check"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "tsc --noEmit && eslint . --fix"

preview:
  name: "Deploy preview"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "vercel --prod=false"

Now your Claude Code can:

• Create and setup feature branches
• Run comprehensive type checks
• Deploy preview environments ...all without you typing a single command!

Use Case 2: Team Workflow Standardization

# Company-wide ~/.tasak/tasak.yaml
header: "ACME Corp Standard Tools"

apps_config:
  enabled_apps:
    - vpn
    - staging_logs
    - prod_deploy

vpn:
  name: "Connect to VPN"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "openvpn --config ~/.acme/vpn.conf"

staging_logs:
  name: "Stream staging logs"
  type: "cmd"
  meta:
    command: "kubectl logs -f -n staging --selector=app"

prod_deploy:
  name: "Production deployment"
  type: "curated"
  commands:
    - name: "deploy"
      description: "Full production deployment with approvals"
      backend:
        type: composite
        steps:
          - type: cmd
            command: ["./scripts/request-approval.sh"]
          - type: cmd
            command: ["./scripts/deploy-prod.sh"]

Use Case 3: Python Plugins - Let AI Extend Itself!

# Your AI agent can write this!
# ~/.tasak/plugins/my_tools.py

def smart_refactor(file_pattern: str, old_name: str, new_name: str):
    """Refactor variable/function names across multiple files"""
    import subprocess
    result = subprocess.run(
        ["rg", "-l", old_name, file_pattern],
        capture_output=True,
        text=True
    )
    files = result.stdout.strip().split("\n")

    for file in files:
        subprocess.run([
            "sed", "-i", f"s/{old_name}/{new_name}/g", file
        ])

    return f"Refactored {len(files)} files"

# Now available as: tasak smart_refactor "*.py" "oldFunc" "newFunc"
