FAQPage Schema
How do I install ai-rules into my project's rules directory?

To install ai-rules into your project, execute the bundled installer script which clones the repository and populates the current project's rules/ directory, ensuring a consistent starting point for rule management.

What happens to my existing rules/ directory when updating project rules?

When updating existing project rules, the installer safely backs up your current rules/ directory to a timestamped location before replacing it. You can use the --force option to handle existing rules during the installation process.

How does the installer handle network or GitHub access restrictions?

The installer handles network or GitHub access restrictions by prompting the user and providing safe fallbacks, ensuring the project setup process does not fail silently when connectivity issues occur during repository cloning.

Do I need any dependencies to automate project setup with this installer?

No dependencies are required to automate project setup with this installer. It operates independently using bundled scripts to clone the repository and manage the rules/ directory initialization.

Can I recover my previous project rules if the installation overwrites them?

Yes, you can recover previous project rules because the installer safely backs up existing rules to a timestamped recovery path before replacing them, preserving a recovery route if the new ai-rules setup needs to be reverted.
