AgentSmith

A universal, model-agnostic operating harness that installs shared project rules, a definition of done, and evidence-recording checks into a repository so any AI coding agent runs the real checks, records proof of its work, and leaves a handoff another session can verify.

AgentSmith

AgentSmith installs an operating agreement and a work-type profile into a project so an AI coding agent, Claude, Codex, Gemini, or another, gets explicit boundaries, runs the checks relevant to that kind of work, exercises the real execution path rather than just claiming success, records evidence of what it did, and leaves a handoff that a later session can validate. External writes stay under the user's control throughout.

Setup runs through a guided wizard, either as a standalone signed or unsigned desktop build for macOS, Windows, or Linux with its own bundled runtime, or by asking a coding agent to follow the project's own install guide, which has the agent inspect the repository, explain its recommended profile in plain language, and ask before applying anything. For an existing project it preserves foreign content and layers in managed rules and verification scaffolding; for a new project it can initialize git and add AgentSmith to an otherwise empty folder.

Building from source is intended for contributors rather than typical setup.

  • Provenance gate

    github.com

    A deterministic authorization gateway that sits between an AI agent and its tools, tracing where each parameter of a side-effect call came from, and blocking the call or asking a human when the source does not check out.

  • A markdown framework of system rules that restates Isaac Asimov's Four Laws of Robotics as a set of prioritized loss calculations for large-language-model agents to follow, published as a discovery file for agents and crawlers to read.

  • Vitruvius

    github.com

    An engineering research agent that runs a discover, read, synthesize, verify and review loop over technical questions, reading sources directly rather than inferring from titles, and publishing its own scored verifier benchmark, weaknesses included.
