Payo
An interactive CLI that interviews a developer about their project's stack and conventions, then generates the guidance files AI coding assistants read, such as CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules and AGENTS.md.
Payo is an interactive command-line tool that interviews a developer about their project's language, framework, database, authentication, testing and conventions, then generates the guidance files an AI coding assistant reads so it follows the project's own conventions instead of guessing. It supports Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, Windsurf, Zed and Antigravity.
Where an assistant ships a headless CLI, Payo drives that tool's own AI to write project-specific documentation; where it does not, Payo falls back to templates, so a usable result is produced either way. Output follows one shared layout of an AGENTS.md entry point plus skills under a project skills directory, a format the project says every skills-compatible tool can read. Payo can also detect an existing project's stack automatically and resume an interrupted setup session.
It is written in TypeScript.
