High-Level Architecture

1. Startup and environment setup
2. Config, auth, policy, and telemetry initialization
3. Command registration and argument parsing
4. REPL/non-interactive execution path selection
5. Tool invocation, session state, and plugin/skill integration

Quick Exploration

This snapshot appears intended for internal/runtime use and may not include a complete public build workflow. You can still inspect and analyze it effectively:

# Find top-level command registrations
rg "program.command\(|register" src/main.tsx

# Explore command implementations
ls src/commands

# Inspect bridge subsystem
ls src/bridge

Repository Layout (Key Paths)

• src/main.tsx: main CLI bootstrap and command wiring
• src/commands.ts: core command registry list
• src/setup.ts: startup/setup sequence
• src/entrypoints/init.ts: initialization pipeline
• src/bridge/: bridge transport, messaging, remote control
• src/tools/: tool implementations used by the agent runtime
• vendor/: native/auxiliary vendor sources

Security and Compliance

If you analyze this code:

• Do not hardcode credentials or tokens.
• Avoid running unknown commands against production systems.
• Keep your work in isolated test environments.
