FAQPage Schema
How do I initialize ai-shell for a new repository?▼

You initialize ai-shell by running a setup workflow that prompts you to select a repository kind and tool scope, persisting these choices in an ai-shell.toml configuration file and outputting the correct activation commands for subsequent use.

What repository kinds can I choose when setting up ai-shell?▼

When setting up ai-shell, you can choose from three repository kinds: library, service, or workspace. Your selection is persisted in the ai-shell.toml configuration file to tailor the environment for future runs.

Can I configure ai-shell to work with different AI tools?▼

Yes, you can configure ai-shell for different AI tools by selecting a tool scope during initialization. You can choose claude, codex, opencode, or all, and the setup will output the correct activation commands for your selected tools.

Where does ai-shell store its configuration after running the init command?▼

The ai-shell init command stores its configuration in an ai-shell.toml file. This file persists your selected repository kind and tool scope choices to ensure a deterministic setup for future runs within that workspace.

Do I need an existing configuration to run the ai-shell setup workflow?▼

No, the ai-shell setup workflow applies specifically to uninitialized projects. It guides you through selecting the correct repository kind and tool scope from scratch to create the necessary configuration.
