It provides a structured set of rule files and configuration templates that extend native IDE agent functionality with automated planning and extended tool capabilities. The project bootstraps an agentic coding environment through a cookiecutter template or direct file copy, injecting plain-text configuration files into the project root that define agent behavior and tool integrations. These rule files are interpreted at startup by a static evaluation engine, enabling prompt-chained task decomposition that breaks complex development workflows into sequential sub-tasks for autonomous execution. The framework orchestrates multi-step development tasks such as data gathering, prototyping, and cross-referencing external resources, turning a standard AI coder into a self-directed developer agent. It integrates with Cursor and Windsurf editor APIs to extend their native agent functionality with custom rules and capabilities, all managed through file-based configuration rather than runtime compilation or dynamic loading. ## Tags ### Development Tools & Productivity - [Agentic Coding Assistants](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/development-tools-productivity/agentic-coding-assistants.md) — Configures an IDE with automated planning and extended tool use to turn a standard AI coder into a self-evolving developer agent.
