SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Handles the full edit-sync-build-commit-push cycle for methodology and tooling files under your agentic-engineering install (resolved at runtime from ~/.agentic/agentic-engineering-config.json repo_dir).

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Coordinates gated preflight checks, session git state, and isolated worktrees for safe edits inside the AE repo.
  • Manages edit/commit workflows for methodology, conventions, and agent definitions, ensuring changes stay within the configured repo.
  • Provides guardrails and handoff prompts when the AE repo is unavailable or when sessions originate outside the AE repo.

Quick Start

Run the activation preflight to begin the full edit-sync-build-commit-push cycle inside your AE repository.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate git commits for agentic engineering methodology updates?

Automating git commits for agentic engineering methodology updates is handled by orchestrating a full edit-sync-build-commit-push cycle within your configured AE repo using isolated git worktrees for safe edits.

What's the best way to apply isolated worktrees for editing engineering conventions?

Applying isolated worktrees for editing engineering conventions requires spawning worker isolation sessions within the agentic-engineering repo, ensuring changes to rules and agent definitions stay safely separated until committed.

Do I need a clean git state to run automated engineering tooling updates?

Yes, a clean git state is required to run automated engineering tooling updates, along with a valid AE replica tracked by the configuration file and the ability to spawn worker isolation sessions for applying edits.

Can I modify agent definitions and rules from outside the configured AE repository?

No, modifying agent definitions and rules from outside the configured AE repository triggers guardrails and handoff prompts, as the automation requires sessions to originate inside the resolved repo directory to apply edits safely.

Why does the automated workflow update fail when the AE repo is unavailable?

The automated workflow update fails when the AE repo is unavailable because the tooling cannot resolve the target directory from the configuration file, triggering guardrails and handoff prompts instead of initiating the edit cycle.

What preflight checks are needed before automating engineering tooling version control?

Preflight checks needed before automating engineering tooling version control include verifying the session git state, confirming the AE replica is tracked, and validating the ability to spawn worker isolation sessions for gated edits.
