Good for

Check every edit against rules in AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md that no linter can catch
Have the agent fix a rule-breaking edit in the same turn, with no human in the loop
Use the same checks across Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Pi

Getting started

Get a TypeSafe API key at typesafe.ai, or use an existing Vercel AI Gateway key
Run npx @coldtea/abide login, pick the key type and paste it
Run npx @coldtea/abide init in your repo (add --project to share it with teammates)
Start claude or codex as usual; the first turn compiles your rules into .abide/rubric.json

Before you install

Requires a TypeSafe API key or a Vercel AI Gateway key; each check takes about 300 ms and costs a few thousandths of a cent. It has no built-in rules, so a repo without instruction files has nothing to enforce.

Summarized by AI from the project docs; check the official docs before relying on it.
