ZipLyne Agent Setup — Development skill for Claude Code

Agent Setup Backup

This repository is the portable, secret-safe configuration for Isaac's macOS agent workspace: every coding agent on the machine, the rules they all follow, how they hand work to each other, and the tooling that keeps them consistent. It is a refreshed snapshot of the real machine (`~/Agent-Backup`, GitHub `isaachorowitz/multi-agent-setup`), not a disk image and not an account export.

If you are new here, read the next two sections. The first is written for anyone; the second is the technical contract. Everything after that is reference material.

This is a personal setup published for reference, not a supported product. It holds no secrets: see `SECURITY.md` for what is excluded and why, and read `install.sh` before running it, because it rewrites agent configuration in your home directory.

The setup in plain English

**What lives here.** Isaac runs several AI coding agents on one Mac: Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), Cursor, Grok (xAI), OpenCode (open source, running local and OpenRouter models), and Hermes (a scheduler and assistant). He also has a mobile-app testing tool called Argent. Each of these is a separate product with its own settings folder. This repository holds the shared rulebook and the copies of each product's settings, so the whole arrangement can be understood, audited, and rebuilt on another machine.

**One rulebook, three layers.** Every agent reads the same three files before it does anything:

1. ~/AGENTS.md, the constitution. The rules that never change per task: never commit or deploy without being asked, never tell Isaac how long something will take, never print a secret, use Isaac's own logged-in Chrome only through the approved route, clean up every process you start.
2. ~/.agents/AGENTS.md, the runtime overlay. Which model orchestrates, which model does routine work, which one reviews, how to delegate safely.
3. ~/.agents/agent-graph.yaml, the machine-readable version of the routi
