FAQ

Does agentinit generate app code too?

By default, no. It scaffolds agent context files. Use --skeleton fastapi for a minimal app boilerplate.

What is the most important command?

agentinit status (and in CI: agentinit status --check).

When should I use minimal?

When you want the lightest setup and add memory files later.

Is --detect enough on its own?

It helps, but you should still provide a clear --purpose.

Can I use only a subset of commands?

Yes. Minimum setup:

agentinit init
agentinit refresh-llms
agentinit status

What is the difference between refresh-llms and sync?

• agentinit refresh-llms rebuilds llms.txt from your current project files.
• agentinit sync restores vendor router files like CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, Cursor, and Copilot files from the built-in templates, including short router files that point back to AGENTS.md and related docs.

For CI, use both:

agentinit status --check
agentinit sync --check

Does --yes overwrite files?

For init and minimal, yes: --yes is a non-interactive alias that also implies --force.

For new, --yes only skips the wizard.
