[Source](/advanced/registry-privacy/) Syllago includes a privacy gate system to prevent accidental leakage of content from private registries to public destinations. This is a soft gate — it prevents mistakes, not intentional circumvention. ## How It Works [Section titled “How It Works”](#how-it-works) The privacy gate operates in four layers: ### 1. Detection [Section titled “1. Detection”](#1-detection) When you add a registry, syllago determines its visibility: * **API probes**: Checks GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket APIs for the repository’s privacy status * **Manifest field**: An optional `visibility` field in `registry.yaml` provides explicit control * **Default**: Unknown visibility defaults to **private** (safe default) ### 2. Tainting [Section titled “2. Tainting”](#2-tainting) Content imported from private registries receives permanent metadata: ```yaml source_registry: my-private-registry source_visibility: private ``` These fields persist through the content’s entire lifecycle in your library. They are not removed by editing, re-importing from a different path, or any other library operation. ### 3. Enforcement (Four Gates) [Section titled “3. Enforcement (Four Gates)”](#3-enforcement-four-gates) | Gate | Command | Behavior | | ---- | ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | | G1 | `syllago publish` | **Blocks** publishing tainted content to public registries | | G2 | `syllago share` | **Blocks** sharing tainted content to public repos | | G3 | `syllago loadout create` | **Warns** when loadout contains private items | | G4 | `syllago loadout publish` | **Blocks** publishing loadouts with private items to public registries | The `sync-and-export` command also warns when installing private-tainted content. ### 4. Scope [Section titled “4. Scope”](#4-scope) Soft Gate The privacy gate prevents accidental leakage through syllago commands. It does **not** prevent: * Direct filesystem operations (copy/paste) * Direct git commands * Content modification after export There is no override flag by design. To remove the taint, re-add the content from a public source. ## Removing Taint [Section titled “Removing Taint”](#removing-taint) The only way to remove privacy taint is to re-add the content from a public source: ```bash # Remove the tainted version syllago remove my-private-skill # Re-add from a public registry or provider syllago add skills/my-skill --from claude-code ``` ## Team Workflows [Section titled “Team Workflows”](#team-workflows) ### Private team registry [Section titled “Private team registry”](#private-team-registry) If your team uses a private registry for internal content: 1. Content added from the private registry is automatically tainted 2. Team members can freely install tainted content to their providers 3. Tainted content cannot be accidentally published to public registries 4. To share content publicly, create it fresh or re-add from a public source ### Mixed public/private [Section titled “Mixed public/private”](#mixed-publicprivate) If you use both public and private registries: ```bash # Check which registries are private syllago registry list # Inspect an item's taint status syllago inspect my-skill --json | jq '.source_visibility' ``` ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Registries](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) — managing git-based registries * `syllago publish` — contributing to registries * [Team Setup](/advanced/team-setup.md) — configuring syllago for team use # Sandbox > Run AI CLI tools in bubblewrap isolation with filesystem, network, and environment variable filtering. [Source](/advanced/sandbox/) The sandbox runs AI CLI tools inside a [bubblewrap](https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap) (bwrap) container that restricts filesystem access, network egress, and environment variables. When an AI tool executes code — installing packages, running scripts, making API calls — the sandbox limits what that code can reach. Linux only. macOS and Windows are not supported. ## What gets sandboxed [Section titled “What gets sandboxed”](#what-gets-sandboxed) The sandbox enforces three boundaries: **Filesystem.** The sandboxed process can only see your current working directory. The rest of the filesystem is hidden. This prevents AI-generated code from reading or modifying files outside the project. **Network.** Outbound connections are blocked by default. You explicitly allow specific domains (for API calls) and localhost ports (for local dev servers). Everything else is denied. **Environment variables.** Only env vars you explicitly allow are passed into the sandbox. API keys, tokens, and other secrets in your shell environment stay outside unless you opt them in. ## Prerequisites [Section titled “Prerequisites”](#prerequisites) Two system packages must be installed: * **bubblewrap** (`bwrap`) >= 0.4.0 — the container runtime * **socat** >= 1.7.0 — used for network proxying through the sandbox boundary Install them with your system package manager: ```bash # Debian / Ubuntu sudo apt install bubblewrap socat # Fedora sudo dnf install bubblewrap socat # Arch sudo pacman -S bubblewrap socat ``` Verify everything is ready: ```bash syllago sandbox check ``` To also verify that a specific provider works inside the sandbox: ```bash syllago sandbox check claude-code ``` ## Running a provider in the sandbox [Section titled “Running a provider in the sandbox”](#running-a-provider-in-the-sandbox) Once prerequisites are in place, run any provider inside the sandbox: ```bash syllago sandbox run claude-code ``` This starts the provider with filesystem, network, and env var restrictions active. The provider works normally from the user’s perspective, but its access is constrained to what you’ve allowed. ### One-off overrides [Section titled “One-off overrides”](#one-off-overrides) You can extend the sandbox for a single session without changing your saved configuration: ```bash # Allow an extra domain for this session only syllago sandbox run claude-code --allow-domain api.example.com # Forward an extra env var into the sandbox syllago sandbox run claude-code --allow-env MY_API_KEY # Allow a localhost port (e.g., a local dev server) syllago sandbox run claude-code --allow-port 3000 # Mount an additional path read-only syllago sandbox run claude-code --mount-ro /usr/share/dict # Block all network (no proxy at all) syllago sandbox run claude-code --no-network ``` These flags can be combined and repeated. ## Configuring allowed access [Section titled “Configuring allowed access”](#configuring-allowed-access) The sandbox maintains persistent allowlists for domains, ports, and env vars. These apply every time you run `sandbox run`. ### Domains [Section titled “Domains”](#domains) Domains control which hosts the sandboxed process can reach over the network. ```bash # Allow a domain syllago sandbox allow-domain api.anthropic.com # Remove a domain syllago sandbox deny-domain api.anthropic.com # List all allowed domains syllago sandbox domains ``` ### Localhost ports [Section titled “Localhost ports”](#localhost-ports) Ports control which localhost services are reachable from inside the sandbox. Useful for local dev servers, databases, or other services running on your machine. ```bash # Allow a port syllago sandbox allow-port 8080 # Remove a port syllago sandbox deny-port 8080 # List all allowed ports syllago sandbox ports ``` ### Environment variables [Section titled “Environment variables”](#environment-variables) Env vars control which shell variables are passed into the sandbox. By default, none are forwarded — the sandbox starts with a clean environment. ```bash # Allow an env var syllago sandbox allow-env ANTHROPIC_API_KEY # Remove an env var syllago sandbox deny-env ANTHROPIC_API_KEY # List all allowed env vars syllago sandbox env ``` ## Inspecting the configuration [Section titled “Inspecting the configuration”](#inspecting-the-configuration) To see the effective sandbox configuration (all allowed domains, ports, and env vars): ```bash syllago sandbox info ``` To see the configuration that would apply to a specific provider: ```bash syllago sandbox info claude-code ``` ## Typical setup [Section titled “Typical setup”](#typical-setup) A practical setup for using Claude Code in the sandbox: ```bash # 1. Check prerequisites syllago sandbox check claude-code # 2. Allow the API endpoint syllago sandbox allow-domain api.anthropic.com # 3. Pass through the API key syllago sandbox allow-env ANTHROPIC_API_KEY # 4. Allow a local dev server if needed syllago sandbox allow-port 3000 # 5. Run it syllago sandbox run claude-code ``` After initial setup, step 5 is the only one you repeat. The allowlists persist across sessions. ## Related [Section titled “Related”](#related) * [CLI reference: sandbox commands](/using-syllago/cli-reference/sandbox.md) — full flag and option details for all sandbox subcommands * [CLI reference: sandbox run](/using-syllago/cli-reference/sandbox-run.md) — all flags for `sandbox run` * [CLI reference: sandbox check](/using-syllago/cli-reference/sandbox-check.md) — prerequisite verification # Team Setup > Share and standardize AI coding tool configurations across your team with syllago. [Source](/advanced/team-setup/) Teams use syllago to maintain consistent AI coding tool configurations — shared rules, skills, agents, and provider settings — without manual setup on each developer’s machine. The core workflow centers on registries for distribution, loadouts for onboarding, and project-level config for per-repo settings. ## Team registry [Section titled “Team registry”](#team-registry) A [registry](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) is a git repo that holds shared syllago content. This is the primary mechanism for distributing team standards. ### Setting up a team registry [Section titled “Setting up a team registry”](#setting-up-a-team-registry) 1. Create a git repo (GitHub, GitLab, etc.) 2. Add syllago content — rules, skills, agents, hooks, MCP configs — following the standard directory layout 3. Push to your git host 4. Share the URL with your team There is no special initialization or registry-specific metadata. Any git repo with syllago’s content structure works as a registry. ### Team members subscribe [Section titled “Team members subscribe”](#team-members-subscribe) Each team member adds the registry once: ```bash syllago registry add https://github.com/your-org/syllago-registry.git ``` To pin everyone to a stable release: ```bash syllago registry add https://github.com/your-org/syllago-registry.git --ref v1.0 ``` ### Staying up to date [Section titled “Staying up to date”](#staying-up-to-date) Sync periodically to pull the latest content: ```bash syllago registry sync ``` Syncing updates the local clone only — it does not modify anyone’s library or installed content. Team members choose when to pull updates into their own setup, keeping the workflow predictable. ## Contributing back [Section titled “Contributing back”](#contributing-back) Registries are not read-only. When a team member creates content that belongs in the shared registry, they contribute it via PR: ```bash syllago publish useful-skill --registry your-registry ``` This creates a branch in the registry clone, copies the content, commits, pushes, and opens a pull request if the `gh` CLI is installed. The registry maintainer reviews and merges through the normal PR workflow — no special tooling required on their end. For sharing directly with a team repo (without a registry), use `syllago share`: ```bash syllago share useful-skill ``` This means team standards can evolve from the bottom up. Individual developers experiment locally, and the best content gets published to the shared registry for everyone. ## Loadouts for onboarding [Section titled “Loadouts for onboarding”](#loadouts-for-onboarding) A [loadout](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md) bundles multiple content items into a single apply-as-a-unit configuration. For team onboarding, this turns a multi-step manual setup into one command. ### Creating a team loadout [Section titled “Creating a team loadout”](#creating-a-team-loadout) A team lead or maintainer creates the loadout: ```bash syllago loadout create team-standards ``` The interactive creator walks through selecting which content items to include — team rules, shared skills, standard MCP configs, etc. ### New member onboarding [Section titled “New member onboarding”](#new-member-onboarding) A new team member’s setup becomes: ```bash # 1. Add the team registry syllago registry add https://github.com/your-org/syllago-registry.git # 2. Sync to pull content syllago registry sync # 3. Apply the team loadout syllago loadout apply team-standards --keep ``` The `--keep` flag writes the configuration permanently. Three commands replace what would otherwise be a checklist of individual content installations and provider configurations. ### Verifying the setup [Section titled “Verifying the setup”](#verifying-the-setup) After applying, team members can confirm what is active: ```bash syllago loadout status ``` ## Project-level config [Section titled “Project-level config”](#project-level-config) Running `syllago init` in a project root creates `.syllago/config.json` with project-specific provider settings: ```bash cd your-project syllago init ``` Syllago detects which AI coding tools are in use and writes the config accordingly. Commit `.syllago/config.json` to the repo so all team members share the same provider settings without manual configuration. This is separate from registry content. The registry holds the **what** (rules, skills, agents). The project config holds the **where** (which providers to target for this repo). ## CI/CD integration [Section titled “CI/CD integration”](#cicd-integration) Use `syllago sync-and-export` or `syllago install` in CI pipelines to automate content distribution. The `--json` flag produces machine-readable output suitable for scripting: ```bash syllago install --to claude-code --json ``` Examples of CI use cases: ```bash # Install all skills to a specific provider syllago install --to cursor --type skills --json # Sync registries and install in one step syllago sync-and-export --to claude-code --json # Install only rules syllago install --to claude-code --type rules --json ``` This lets you enforce that project repos always have up-to-date provider configurations — for example, regenerating provider config files on every PR merge or as part of a dev environment setup script. ## Putting it together [Section titled “Putting it together”](#putting-it-together) A typical team workflow combines all of these: ```plaintext Team registry (git repo) ├── Rules, skills, agents, hooks ├── Team members sync periodically └── Contributors promote content via PR Loadout (team-standards) ├── Bundles registry content └── New members apply in one command Project config (.syllago/config.json) ├── Committed to each repo └── Sets provider targets per project CI pipeline └── Exports content on merge/deploy ``` The registry is the source of truth. Loadouts make it easy to apply. Project config ties it to specific repos. CI keeps everything in sync automatically. ## Related [Section titled “Related”](#related) * [Registries](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) — full reference on adding, syncing, and browsing registries * [Loadouts](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md) — creating, applying, and managing loadouts * [`syllago init`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/init.md) — project initialization * `syllago install` — installing content to providers * `syllago publish` — contributing content to a registry * `syllago share` — contributing content to a team repo # Troubleshooting > Common issues, debug tools, and where to get help with syllago. [Source](/advanced/troubleshooting/) ## Debug Flags [Section titled “Debug Flags”](#debug-flags) syllago provides several flags to help diagnose problems.

Verify the tool is installed and available in your `PATH`: ```bash which ``` 2. If the tool is installed but not detected, add it manually: ```bash syllago config add ``` 3. Run [`syllago info providers`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/info-providers.md) to see all supported providers. *** ### Content not appearing after add [Section titled “Content not appearing after add”](#content-not-appearing-after-add) You ran `syllago add` but can’t find the content. **Symptoms:** * Content missing from expected provider config * `syllago list` shows fewer items than expected **Fix:** 1. Run [`syllago list`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/list.md) to verify what’s actually imported. 2. Check the `--source` filter — content may be in a different source (registry vs library): ```bash syllago list --source registry syllago list --source library ``` 3. Run `syllago list --verbose` for details on where each item came from. *** ### Format conversion issues [Section titled “Format conversion issues”](#format-conversion-issues) A conversion between providers fails or produces unexpected results. **Symptoms:** * Error during `syllago add`, `syllago install`, or `syllago convert` * Content type mismatch warnings **Fix:** 1. Check [`syllago info providers`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/info-providers.md) to see which content types each provider supports. 2. Not all content types work with all providers. Verify your source and target are compatible. 3. Check the [format conversion reference](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) for the compatibility matrix. **Related error codes:** * [CONVERT\_001](/errors/convert-001.md) — Conversion not supported * [EXPORT\_001](/errors/export-001.md) — Export failed *** ### Registry sync failures [Section titled “Registry sync failures”](#registry-sync-failures) `syllago registry sync` fails to pull updates. **Symptoms:** * Sync command errors out * Registry content is stale or missing **Fix:** 1. Check network connectivity — registries are fetched over the network (typically git). 2. Verify you have access to the registry repository. 3. Run sync with verbose output for details: ```bash syllago registry sync --verbose ``` 4. Check [`syllago registry list`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/registry-list.md) to confirm the registry URL is correct. **Related error codes:** * [REGISTRY\_001](/errors/registry-001.md) — Registry not found * [REGISTRY\_002](/errors/registry-002.md) — Registry sync failed *** ### Permission errors on install [Section titled “Permission errors on install”](#permission-errors-on-install) syllago can’t write to the provider’s configuration directory. **Symptoms:** * “Permission denied” errors during import or sync * Content fails to write to the target location **Fix:** 1. Check file permissions on the provider’s config directory. 2. Ensure your user owns the directory, or has write access. 3. On macOS/Linux: ```bash ls -la ~/.config// ``` **Related error codes:** * [INSTALL\_001](/errors/install-001.md) — Installation failed *** ## Error Codes [Section titled “Error Codes”](#error-codes) Every syllago error includes a code like `CONVERT_001` or `REGISTRY_002`.

[Source](/getting-started/core-concepts/) syllago manages AI coding tool content across multiple providers. This page covers the four concepts you need to understand how everything fits together: **providers**, **content types**, **collections**, and **format conversion**. ## Providers [Section titled “Providers”](#providers) A **provider** is an AI coding tool that syllago supports. Each provider has its own file format and stores content in different locations on your system. syllago handles these differences automatically — you work with one set of content, and syllago adapts it to each provider’s requirements. syllago supports the following providers: | Provider | Description | | ----------- | ------------------------ | | Claude Code | Anthropic’s CLI agent | | Gemini CLI | Google’s CLI agent | | Cursor | AI-powered code editor | | Copilot CLI | GitHub’s CLI agent | | Codex | OpenAI’s CLI agent | | Kiro | AWS AI IDE | | Windsurf | AI-powered code editor | | OpenCode | Terminal-based AI agent | | Roo Code | VS Code extension | | Cline | VS Code extension | | Amp | AI coding assistant | | Zed | Editor with AI assistant | syllago auto-detects which providers are installed on your system. You don’t need to configure them manually. For details on each provider’s capabilities and file locations, see [Supported Providers](/using-syllago/providers.md). ## Content Types [Section titled “Content Types”](#content-types) syllago manages six kinds of content: | Content Type | What it is | | --------------- | -------------------------------------- | | **Rules** | System prompts and custom instructions | | **Skills** | Multi-file workflow packages | | **Agents** | AI agent definitions and personas | | **MCP Configs** | MCP server configurations | | **Hooks** | Event-driven automation scripts | | **Commands** | Custom slash commands | Not every provider supports every content type. For example, some providers have no concept of hooks, and others don’t support slash commands. syllago tracks the support matrix so you know what will work where. For the full compatibility matrix and details on each type, see [Content Types](/using-syllago/content-types.md). ## Collections [Section titled “Collections”](#collections) Content in syllago is organized into three collections, each serving a different purpose: ### Library [Section titled “Library”](#library) Your personal content store, located at `~/.syllago/content/`. This is read-write — it’s where your content lives. Content arrives in the library when you add it from a provider: ```bash syllago add --from # pull content from an installed provider ``` ### Registries [Section titled “Registries”](#registries) Git-based repositories of shared content. A registry lets a team (or the community) publish and maintain a collection of rules, skills, agents, and other content that anyone can consume locally. You add a registry to your system, sync it to pull updates, and browse its items: ```bash syllago registry add syllago registry sync syllago registry items ``` When you’ve created content locally that you want to share back, you can publish it to a registry — syllago opens a PR against the registry repo: ```bash syllago publish my-skill --registry team-registry ``` Or share directly with your team repo: ```bash syllago share my-skill ``` ### Loadouts [Section titled “Loadouts”](#loadouts) A loadout is a bundled set of content that applies as a unit. Think of it as a named configuration profile — “my Python stack,” “frontend review setup,” or “security audit kit.” ```bash syllago loadout create # define a loadout syllago loadout apply # preview what would happen (default) syllago loadout apply --try # apply temporarily, auto-reverts on session end syllago loadout apply --keep # apply permanently syllago loadout remove # revert and clean up ``` Loadouts apply and revert cleanly, so you can switch contexts without leaving stale content behind. For more on how these three collections work together, see [Collections](/using-syllago/collections.md). ## Format Conversion [Section titled “Format Conversion”](#format-conversion) This is the mechanism that makes everything else work. syllago uses a **hub-and-spoke model** for format conversion: ```plaintext Source Provider ──→ syllago format ──→ Target Provider ``` **syllago format** is a provider-neutral representation of content. It’s the internal format syllago uses to store everything in your library, registries, and loadouts. The conversion flow works in two directions: * **Inbound** — When you `syllago add` content from a provider, syllago reads the provider’s native format and converts it to syllago format for storage. * **Outbound** — When you install content to a provider (or convert it for sharing), syllago converts from syllago format to the provider’s native format. This hub-and-spoke design means you add content once and install it anywhere. A rule written for Claude Code can be installed into Cursor, Windsurf, or any other supported provider — syllago handles the format translation automatically. For implementation details, see [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md). *** These four concepts — providers as the tools you target, content types as the things you manage, collections as how content is organized, and format conversion as the translation layer — form the complete mental model for syllago. Every command in the CLI maps to an operation on one of these concepts. # Installation > Install syllago on Linux, macOS, or Windows.

Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows. ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenScribbler/syllago/main/install.sh | sh ``` Installs to `~/.local/bin` by default. To override the install directory: ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenScribbler/syllago/main/install.sh | INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin sh ``` The install script creates a `syl` alias symlink automatically, so you can use either `syllago` or `syl` to run commands. ## Homebrew [Section titled “Homebrew”](#homebrew) ```bash brew install openscribbler/tap/syllago ``` ## Go Install [Section titled “Go Install”](#go-install) ```bash go install github.com/OpenScribbler/syllago/cli/cmd/syllago@latest ``` Requires Go 1.25+. ## From Source [Section titled “From Source”](#from-source) Requires Go 1.25+. ```bash git clone https://github.com/OpenScribbler/syllago.git cd syllago make build ``` ## Verify Installation [Section titled “Verify Installation”](#verify-installation) ```bash syllago version ``` ## Self-Update [Section titled “Self-Update”](#self-update) ```bash syllago update ``` Updates syllago to the latest release. ## Shell Completions [Section titled “Shell Completions”](#shell-completions) syllago generates completions for bash, zsh, fish, and PowerShell. * Bash Current session: ```bash source <(syllago completion bash) ``` Permanent (Linux): ```bash syllago completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/syllago ``` Permanent (macOS): ```bash syllago completion bash > $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/syllago ``` * Zsh Current session: ```bash source <(syllago completion zsh) ``` Permanent (Linux): ```bash syllago completion zsh > "${fpath[1]}/_syllago" ``` Permanent (macOS): ```bash syllago completion zsh > $(brew --prefix)/share/zsh/site-functions/_syllago ``` * Fish Current session: ```bash syllago completion fish | source ``` Permanent: ```bash syllago completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/syllago.fish ``` * PowerShell Current session: ```powershell syllago completion powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression ``` ## Next Steps [Section titled “Next Steps”](#next-steps) Head to the [Quick Start](/getting-started/quick-start.md) to start managing your AI coding tool content. # Quick Start > Get up and running with syllago in under five minutes. [Source](/getting-started/quick-start/) This guide covers two paths to get started with syllago: 1. **Import from your existing tools** — pull in rules, skills, or context you already have configured in an AI coding tool 2. **Browse a registry** — discover and install shared content from a team or community registry Both paths start with `syllago init`. ## Import from your existing tools [Section titled “Import from your existing tools”](#import-from-your-existing-tools) If you already have AI coding tools configured (Claude Code rules, Cursor rules, etc.), syllago can discover that content and bring it into your library. ### Initialize syllago [Section titled “Initialize syllago”](#initialize-syllago) ```bash syllago init ``` This detects AI coding tools (providers) on your machine and creates your config at `.syllago/config.json`. Follow the interactive prompts, or pass `--yes` to accept defaults. ### Discover available content [Section titled “Discover available content”](#discover-available-content) ```bash syllago add --from claude-code ``` Without a positional argument, `add` runs in **discovery mode** — it shows what content the provider has available without importing anything. ### Add content to your library [Section titled “Add content to your library”](#add-content-to-your-library) Once you know what’s there, add it: ```bash # Add all rules from a provider syllago add rules --from claude-code # Add a specific item syllago add rules/security --from claude-code ``` Content is copied into your library (`~/.syllago/content/`), where syllago manages it independently of the original provider. > **Tip:** Use `--dry-run` to preview what would be written without making changes. Use `--all` to add everything at once. ### See what you have [Section titled “See what you have”](#see-what-you-have) ```bash syllago list ``` Output is grouped by type (rules, skills, agents, etc.). Use `--source` to filter by origin and `--type` to filter by content type. ### Install to another provider [Section titled “Install to another provider”](#install-to-another-provider) ```bash syllago install my-rule --to cursor ``` This installs the item from your library into Cursor’s expected location, converting the format automatically. By default, syllago uses a **symlink** so changes stay in sync. Pass `--method copy` if you need a standalone file. ```bash # Preview what would happen without writing anything syllago install my-rule --to cursor --dry-run ``` That’s it — you’ve moved content from one AI coding tool to another with format conversion handled for you. ## Browse a registry [Section titled “Browse a registry”](#browse-a-registry) Registries are git-based repos of shared content. Use them to pull in team standards, community collections, or curated configurations. ### Initialize syllago [Section titled “Initialize syllago”](#initialize-syllago-1) Skip this if you already ran it above. ```bash syllago init ``` ### Add a registry [Section titled “Add a registry”](#add-a-registry) ```bash syllago registry add https://github.com/team/ai-configs.git ``` You can optionally pass `--name` to give it a short alias, or `--ref` to pin a specific branch or tag. ### Sync registry content [Section titled “Sync registry content”](#sync-registry-content) ```bash syllago registry sync ``` This pulls the latest content from all registered registries. To sync a specific one, pass its name: `syllago registry sync my-registry`. ### Browse available items [Section titled “Browse available items”](#browse-available-items) ```bash syllago registry items ``` Filter by type to narrow results: ```bash syllago registry items --type skills ``` ### Install from the registry [Section titled “Install from the registry”](#install-from-the-registry) ```bash syllago install some-skill --to claude-code ``` Same `install` command as before — syllago resolves the item from your registries, converts the format for the target provider, and symlinks it into place. ### Or use the TUI [Section titled “Or use the TUI”](#or-use-the-tui) Launch the interactive terminal UI to browse and install content visually: ```bash syllago ``` Running `syllago` with no arguments opens the TUI, where you can explore your library, registries, and providers in one place. ## Next steps [Section titled “Next steps”](#next-steps) Now that you have content flowing between tools, learn how the pieces fit together in [Core Concepts](/getting-started/core-concepts.md). # Hook Interchange Format Specification > Provider-neutral interchange format for AI coding tool hooks (v1.0.0-draft) [Source](/reference/hooks-v1/) **Version:** 1.0.0-draft | **License:** CC-BY-4.0 This specification defines a provider-neutral interchange format for AI coding tool hooks. It enables hook authors to write lifecycle hooks once and deploy them across multiple AI coding tool providers through a canonical representation, capability model, and conversion pipeline. For a user-friendly overview, see [Hooks content type](/using-syllago/content-types/hooks.md). This page is the full technical specification. *** ## 1. Introduction [Section titled “1. Introduction”](#1-introduction) AI coding tools provide hook systems that let developers run custom logic at lifecycle points: before a tool executes, when a session starts, after the agent stops. These hooks enforce policy, audit actions, inject context, and customize behavior. Every provider’s hook system is different. Event names, JSON schemas, output contracts, matcher syntax, timeout units, and configuration file layouts vary across providers. A hook written for one tool cannot run on another without manual adaptation. This specification defines a **canonical hook format** that serves as an interchange representation between providers. It does not replace any provider’s native format. Instead, it provides a neutral hub through which hooks are converted: decode from a source provider’s format into canonical, then encode from canonical into a target provider’s format. ### What This Spec Defines [Section titled “What This Spec Defines”](#what-this-spec-defines) * A canonical JSON format for hook manifests * An exit code contract for hook processes * A canonical output schema for structured hook responses * A typed matcher system for tool filtering * A registry of canonical event names with provider mappings * A capability model describing optional features with provider support matrices * A tool vocabulary mapping canonical tool names to provider-native names * Degradation strategies for handling capability gaps during conversion * Conformance levels for implementations *** ## 2.

“Description”](#description) Discovers content from a provider and adds it to your library (\~/.syllago/content/). Without a positional argument, shows what content is available (discovery mode). Provide a type or type/name to add content. Syllago handles format conversion automatically. Once added, content can be installed to any supported provider with “syllago install —to \”. After adding, use “syllago install” to activate content in a provider.

[Source](/using-syllago/collections/) Syllago organizes content into three collection types, each serving a different role in your workflow. Your **library** holds content you own and manage directly. **Registries** connect you to shared content from teams or the community. **Loadouts** bundle content together so you can apply entire configurations at once. ## Quick comparison [Section titled “Quick comparison”](#quick-comparison) | Aspect | Library | Registries | Loadouts | | ------------ | ------------------------ | ------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | | Location | `~/.syllago/content/` | Git repos (cloned locally) | Defined in config | | Access | Read-write | Read locally, contribute via PR | Apply/revert | | Purpose | Your personal content | Shared team/community content | Bundled configurations | | Key commands | `add`, `install`, `list` | `registry add/sync/items` | `loadout create/apply/remove` | ## Library [Section titled “Library”](#library) Your personal content store at `~/.syllago/content/`. This is where syllago manages the content you acquire from providers. You have full read-write access — add, edit, or remove content as needed. ```bash syllago add --from syllago list syllago install --to ``` [Library deep-dive](/using-syllago/collections/library.md) ## Registries [Section titled “Registries”](#registries) Git-based repositories of shared content maintained by teams or the community. You consume registry content locally and can contribute back via pull request using `syllago publish`. ```bash syllago registry add syllago registry sync syllago registry items ``` [Registries deep-dive](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) ## Loadouts [Section titled “Loadouts”](#loadouts) Bundled sets of content — rules, skills, agents, hooks, MCP configs — that apply as a unit. Loadouts let you switch between configurations quickly, either temporarily for testing or permanently. ```bash syllago loadout create syllago loadout apply --try # temporary syllago loadout apply --keep # permanent syllago loadout remove ``` [Loadouts deep-dive](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md) # Library > Your personal content store — the read-write collection you own and manage directly. [Source](/using-syllago/collections/library/) The library is your personal content store at `~/.syllago/content/`. Unlike [registries](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) (shared, read-only locally) or [loadouts](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md) (bundled configurations), the library is fully read-write. You own this content and can add, edit, or remove it freely. ## Directory structure [Section titled “Directory structure”](#directory-structure) Content is organized by type. Each item is a directory containing a `.syllago.yaml` metadata file and one or more content files. ```plaintext ~/.syllago/content/ ├── rules/ │ ├── typescript/ │ │ ├── .syllago.yaml │ │ └── typescript.md │ └── security/ │ ├── .syllago.yaml │ └── security.md ├── skills/ │ └── develop-docs/ │ ├── .syllago.yaml │ └── develop-docs.md ├── agents/ ├── hooks/ ├── commands/ └── loadouts/ ``` The `.syllago.yaml` file stores metadata like the item’s name, description, content type, and provider compatibility. The accompanying files hold the actual content that gets exported to providers. ## Adding content [Section titled “Adding content”](#adding-content) There are three ways to get content into your library. ### Import from a provider [Section titled “Import from a provider”](#import-from-a-provider) Pull content from an existing provider setup into syllago. This is the most common starting point — bring in what you already have. ```bash # Discover what a provider has syllago add --from claude-code # Add only a specific content type syllago add skills --from claude-code # Add a specific item by name syllago add rules/my-rule --from cursor # Preview what would be written without actually writing syllago add --from claude-code --dry-run # Add everything syllago add --all --from claude-code ``` Syllago handles format conversion automatically. A Cursor rule becomes a universal syllago item that can later be installed to Claude Code, Kiro, or any other supported provider. See `syllago add --help` for full options. ### Create from scratch [Section titled “Create from scratch”](#create-from-scratch) Scaffold a new content item with the correct directory structure and metadata template. ```bash # Create a new skill syllago create skills my-new-skill # Create a provider-specific rule syllago create rules my-rule --provider claude-code ``` This creates the directory, `.syllago.yaml`, and a starter content file — ready for you to edit. See [`syllago create`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/create.md) for full options. ## Browsing and inspecting content [Section titled “Browsing and inspecting content”](#browsing-and-inspecting-content) ### List content [Section titled “List content”](#list-content) ```bash # Show all content grouped by type syllago list # Show only library content syllago list --source library # Filter by content type syllago list --type skills # JSON output for scripting syllago list --json ``` The `--source` flag accepts: `library`, `shared`, `registry`, `builtin`, or `all` (default). See [`syllago list`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/list.md) for full options. ### Inspect an item [Section titled “Inspect an item”](#inspect-an-item) View the full metadata and content details for any item. ```bash # Inspect by type/name syllago inspect skills/my-skill # Provider-specific content uses type/provider/name syllago inspect rules/claude-code/my-rule ``` See [`syllago inspect`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/inspect.md) for full options. ## Exporting to providers [Section titled “Exporting to providers”](#exporting-to-providers) Once content is in your library, install it to any supported provider. Syllago converts between provider formats automatically. ```bash # Install a specific item to Cursor syllago install my-rule --to cursor # Install all skills to Kiro syllago install --to kiro --type skills ``` For project-scoped providers (Kiro, Cline, Zed), content is written to the current working directory’s provider config. See `syllago install --help` for full options. ## How it connects [Section titled “How it connects”](#how-it-connects) The library sits at the center of the syllago workflow: * **Providers** are the source and destination. Import from one, export to many. * **[Registries](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md)** are shared content you consume. Registry items appear alongside library items when you run `syllago list --source all`, but they live in separate cloned repos. * **[Loadouts](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md)** bundle library content into named configurations that can be applied or reverted as a unit. For an overview of how all three collections work together, see [Collections](/using-syllago/collections.md). # Loadouts > Bundle and apply curated sets of AI coding tool content as named configuration profiles. [Source](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts/) Loadouts are bundled sets of content — rules, skills, agents, hooks, MCP configs — that apply as a unit. Think of them as named configuration profiles: instead of adding content piece by piece, you define a loadout once and apply everything in a single command. Loadouts currently emit configuration for **Claude Code** only. Additional provider emitters are planned. ## How loadouts fit in [Section titled “How loadouts fit in”](#how-loadouts-fit-in) Your [library](/using-syllago/collections/library.md) stores individual content items. [Registries](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) share content across teams. Loadouts sit on top of both — they bundle content from your library into apply-as-a-unit configurations. ```plaintext Library (individual items) --> Loadouts (bundled profiles) --> Provider config (Claude Code) ``` ## Creating a loadout [Section titled “Creating a loadout”](#creating-a-loadout) Use the interactive creator to define a new loadout: ```bash syllago loadout create ``` This walks you through selecting which content items to include. The result is a named loadout stored in your syllago configuration. ## Applying a loadout [Section titled “Applying a loadout”](#applying-a-loadout) The `apply` command has three modes controlled by flags: ```bash # Preview what would change (default, no flags) syllago loadout apply # Apply temporarily — auto-reverts when the session ends syllago loadout apply --try # Apply permanently — persists until you explicitly remove it syllago loadout apply --keep ``` To target a specific provider: ```bash syllago loadout apply --keep --to ``` The default (no flags) is a dry run — it shows what files would be created or modified without touching anything. This lets you inspect the effect before committing. ### Temporary vs. permanent [Section titled “Temporary vs. permanent”](#temporary-vs-permanent) **`--try`** is designed for experimentation. Apply a loadout, test it during your coding session, and it automatically reverts when the session ends. Nothing to clean up. **`--keep`** writes the configuration to disk permanently. To undo it, use `syllago loadout remove`. ## Managing loadouts [Section titled “Managing loadouts”](#managing-loadouts) ```bash # List all available loadouts syllago loadout list # Check what's currently active syllago loadout status # Remove the active loadout and restore original configuration syllago loadout remove ``` ## Use cases [Section titled “Use cases”](#use-cases) **Per-project configurations.** Define loadouts for different work contexts — a Python backend stack, a frontend stack, a security audit profile — and switch between them as needed. **Team onboarding.** New team members apply the team’s standard loadout in one command instead of manually configuring rules, skills, and MCP servers. **Temporary experimentation.** Use `--try` to test a new set of rules or skills without risk. If it doesn’t work out, it reverts automatically. ## Related [Section titled “Related”](#related) * [Collections overview](/using-syllago/collections.md) — how library, registries, and loadouts work together * [Library](/using-syllago/collections/library.md) — your personal content store * [Registries](/using-syllago/collections/registries.md) — shared team and community content * [CLI reference: loadout commands](/using-syllago/cli-reference/loadout-apply.md) — full flag and option details # Registries > Share and consume content through git-based registries. [Source](/using-syllago/collections/registries/) Registries are git repositories that hold shared syllago content. Teams publish content to a registry, and consumers add, sync, and browse it locally. Unlike a read-only package feed, registries support contributing back — `syllago publish` opens a pull request against the registry repo. ## How registries work [Section titled “How registries work”](#how-registries-work) When you add a registry, syllago clones the git repo locally. Syncing pulls the latest commits. Browsing lists the content available in the clone. Nothing is installed into your [library](/using-syllago/collections/library.md) until you explicitly install an item. ```plaintext Remote git repo Local clone Your library ┌──────────────┐ add ┌──────────┐ install ┌──────────┐ │ registry.git │──────→ │ .syllago/ │────────→ │ content/ │ └──────────────┘ sync └──────────┘ └──────────┘ ↑ │ └──────────────────────┘ publish (PR) ``` ## Adding a registry [Section titled “Adding a registry”](#adding-a-registry) ```bash syllago registry add https://github.com/your-org/syllago-registry.git ``` Options: * `--name` — override the registry name (defaults to name derived from the URL) * `--ref` — pin to a specific branch, tag, or commit (defaults to the repo’s default branch) ```bash # Pin to a release tag syllago registry add https://github.com/your-org/syllago-registry.git --ref v2.1 # Custom local name syllago registry add https://github.com/your-org/syllago-registry.git --name team-rules ``` ## Syncing [Section titled “Syncing”](#syncing) Pull the latest content from one or all registries: ```bash # Sync all registries syllago registry sync # Sync a specific registry syllago registry sync team-rules ``` Syncing only updates the local clone. It does not modify your library or any installed content. This keeps your workflow predictable — you choose when to pull updates into your library. ## Browsing content [Section titled “Browsing content”](#browsing-content) List what a registry offers: ```bash # All items across all registries syllago registry items # Items from a specific registry syllago registry items team-rules # Filter by content type syllago registry items --type rules ``` ## Installing registry content [Section titled “Installing registry content”](#installing-registry-content) Install content from a registry into your library using the same `install` command you use for any content: ```bash syllago install --to ``` Syllago resolves the item from your registered registries. Once installed, the content lives in your library and behaves like any other library content. ## Managing registries [Section titled “Managing registries”](#managing-registries) ```bash # List all registered registries syllago registry list # Remove a registry (deletes the local clone) syllago registry remove team-rules ``` ## Contributing back [Section titled “Contributing back”](#contributing-back) Registries are not read-only. If you have content in your library that belongs in a shared registry, publish it: ```bash syllago publish my-skill --registry team-rules ``` This opens a pull request against the registry’s git repo. The registry maintainers review and merge through their normal PR workflow — no special tooling required on their end. For team repos (non-registry), use `syllago share` instead: ```bash syllago share my-skill ``` ## Privacy gate [Section titled “Privacy gate”](#privacy-gate) Content from private registries is automatically tainted with source metadata. Syllago blocks publishing tainted content to public registries to prevent accidental leakage. See [Registry Privacy](/advanced/registry-privacy.md) for details. ## Creating your own registry [Section titled “Creating your own registry”](#creating-your-own-registry) You can scaffold a new registry with `syllago registry create`: ```bash # Scaffold an empty registry syllago registry create --new my-rules --description "Team coding standards" # Index existing provider-native content in a repo syllago registry create --from-native ``` Or create one manually — a registry is just a git repo with syllago’s content structure: 1. Create a new git repo 2. Add syllago content following the standard directory layout 3. Push to a git host (GitHub, GitLab, etc.) 4. Share the URL — others add it with `syllago registry add` ## Relationship to other collections [Section titled “Relationship to other collections”](#relationship-to-other-collections) | Collection | Role | Access model | | ------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | | [Library](/using-syllago/collections/library.md) | Your personal content | Full read-write | | **Registries** | Shared team/community content | Consume locally, contribute via PR | | [Loadouts](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md) | Bundled configurations | Apply and revert as a unit | Registries feed your library. You browse what is available, install what you need, and the installed content becomes part of your library. Loadouts can then bundle library content into switchable configurations. ## Command reference [Section titled “Command reference”](#command-reference) * [`syllago registry add`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/registry-add.md) * [`syllago registry sync`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/registry-sync.md) * [`syllago registry items`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/registry-items.md) * [`syllago registry list`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/registry-list.md) * [`syllago registry remove`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/registry-remove.md) * `syllago registry create` * `syllago publish` * `syllago share` # Content Types > Overview of syllago content types and provider compatibility. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/) Syllago manages several content types, each stored in a provider-neutral **syllago format**. When installed to a provider, syllago automatically converts to the provider’s native format. See [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) for details. ## Provider Compatibility Matrix [Section titled “Provider Compatibility Matrix”](#provider-compatibility-matrix) | Content Type | CC | Gemini | Cursor | Copilot | Codex | Kiro | Windsurf | OpenCode | Roo | Cline | Amp | Zed | | ------------ | -- | ------ | ------ | ------- | ----- | ---- | -------- | -------- | --- | ----- | --- | --- | | Rules | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | Skills | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | ✅ | — | | Agents | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | ✅ | ✅ | — | — | — | | MCP Configs | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | Hooks | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | — | ✅ | — | — | | Commands | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | — | ✅ | — | — | — | — | | Loadouts | ✅ | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | ## Content Type Reference [Section titled “Content Type Reference”](#content-type-reference) **[Rules](/using-syllago/content-types/rules.md)** — System prompts and custom instructions that guide AI behavior. Supported by every provider. **[Skills](/using-syllago/content-types/skills.md)** — Multi-file workflow packages that teach the AI specific capabilities. **[Agents](/using-syllago/content-types/agents.md)** — AI agent definitions and personas with specialized roles. **[MCP Configs](/using-syllago/content-types/mcp-configs.md)** — MCP server configurations for tool and resource access. **[Hooks](/using-syllago/content-types/hooks.md)** — Event-driven automation scripts triggered by AI tool lifecycle events. **[Commands](/using-syllago/content-types/commands.md)** — Custom slash commands that extend the AI tool’s command palette. **[Loadouts](/using-syllago/collections/loadouts.md)** — Curated content bundles that apply as a unit. Loadouts bundle other content types together so they can be installed and removed in one operation. # Agents > How syllago manages AI agent definitions and personas across providers. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/agents/) Agents are named personas with specialized roles. An agent defines a description and a set of instructions that an AI coding tool can assume, letting you switch between focused behaviors — an API design expert, a security reviewer, a documentation writer — without rewriting prompts. Supported by most providers: Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot CLI, Codex, Roo Code, OpenCode, and Kiro. ## Canonical Fields [Section titled “Canonical Fields”](#canonical-fields) Agents support the following metadata fields: | Field | Description | Provider Support | | ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | | `name` | Agent name (required) | All providers | | `description` | What the agent does (required) | All providers | | `permissionMode` | Permission level (5 values) | Claude Code (all 5); others as prose | | `effort` | Time/complexity: `min`, `moderate`, `large`, `max` | Claude Code (native); others as prose | ### Permission Modes [Section titled “Permission Modes”](#permission-modes) The `permissionMode` field supports five values: | Value | Meaning | | ------------------- | ------------------------------ | | `default` | Normal permission checking | | `acceptEdits` | Auto-accept file edits | | `plan` | Plan-only mode (no execution) | | `dontAsk` | Skip permission prompts | | `bypassPermissions` | Full bypass (use with caution) | Claude Code supports all five modes natively. Other providers embed non-native modes as behavioral prose notes. See the [Content Types overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) for the full compatibility matrix. ## Syllago Format [Section titled “Syllago Format”](#syllago-format) Each agent in your library has a `.syllago.yaml` manifest and a Markdown source file. **Manifest** (`.syllago.yaml`): ```yaml id: 4369aa21-9660-4511-a9bb-7cea37751529 name: api-agent type: agents source_format: md source_type: provider added_at: 2026-03-13T00:13:24Z added_by: syllago ``` **Source file** (`api-agent.md`): ```markdown --- name: api-agent description: REST API design agent --- Design RESTful endpoints with OpenAPI conventions. Follow resource naming best practices and use proper HTTP methods. Return consistent error shapes with appropriate status codes. ``` The Markdown body contains the agent’s instructions — what the AI should know and do when assuming this persona. The YAML frontmatter carries metadata (name, description) that providers use for display and selection. ## Provider Format Differences [Section titled “Provider Format Differences”](#provider-format-differences) Most providers use Markdown with YAML frontmatter, so agents install with minimal transformation. Two providers use different native formats: ### Codex (TOML) [Section titled “Codex (TOML)”](#codex-toml) Codex stores agent definitions in TOML. Syllago auto-converts between TOML and Markdown frontmatter on import and install: ```toml [agent] name = "api-agent" description = "REST API design agent" [agent.instructions] content = """ Design RESTful endpoints with OpenAPI conventions. Follow resource naming best practices and use proper HTTP methods. Return consistent error shapes with appropriate status codes. """ ``` When you import a Codex agent, syllago parses the TOML and stores it as standard Markdown with frontmatter. When you install to Codex, syllago converts back. No manual format handling needed. ### Kiro (JSON) [Section titled “Kiro (JSON)”](#kiro-json) Kiro uses JSON-based steering files. Syllago embeds the Markdown content into Kiro’s JSON structure automatically during install. ## Workflow [Section titled “Workflow”](#workflow) ```bash # Add an agent from a provider syllago add agents/api-agent --from claude-code # List agents in your library syllago list --type agents # Install to a different provider syllago install api-agent --to codex # Inspect the stored format syllago inspect api-agent ``` ## Further Reading [Section titled “Further Reading”](#further-reading) * [Content Types overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — compatibility matrix and all content types * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) — how syllago converts between provider formats # Commands > How syllago manages custom slash commands across providers. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/commands/) Commands are custom slash commands that extend an AI tool’s command palette. They let you define reusable prompts or workflows that users invoke with a slash prefix (e.g., `/fix-typo`). ## Provider Support [Section titled “Provider Support”](#provider-support) Commands are supported by the following providers: | Provider | Format | Notes | | ----------- | -------- | -------------------------------------- | | Claude Code | Markdown | Command files in `.claude/commands/` | | Gemini CLI | Markdown | Command files in `.gemini/commands/` | | Cursor | Markdown | Command files in `.cursor/commands/` | | Copilot CLI | Markdown | Command files in `.copilot/commands/` | | Codex | Markdown | Command files in `.codex/commands/` | | OpenCode | Markdown | Command files in `.opencode/commands/` | ## Canonical Fields [Section titled “Canonical Fields”](#canonical-fields) Commands support the following metadata: | Field | Description | Provider Support | | -------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | | `effort` | Time/complexity: `min`, `moderate`, `large`, `max` | Claude Code (native); others as behavioral notes | ## Syllago Format [Section titled “Syllago Format”](#syllago-format) Commands are stored in your library using syllago’s provider-neutral format. The metadata file (`.syllago.yaml`) describes the content, and a separate source file holds the command definition. ### Catalog Entry [Section titled “Catalog Entry”](#catalog-entry) ```yaml id: 6c0ce509-7960-490f-9100-4d5009d6261c name: fix_typo type: commands source_format: toml source_type: provider has_source: true added_at: 2026-03-11T19:23:53Z added_by: syllago ``` Key fields: * **type** — always `commands` for this content type * **source\_format** — the format of the source file (`toml`, `md`, `yaml`) * **has\_source** — indicates the item includes a source file with the command definition ### Command Source [Section titled “Command Source”](#command-source) The source file contains the actual command definition. The format depends on where the command was imported from. Here is a TOML example (Codex-style): ```toml description = "Fix a typo in a document." [variables] file_path = "{{FILE_PATH}}" file_content = "{{FILE_CONTENT}}" [instructions] preamble = "You are a documentation editor..." steps = [ "Read the file content carefully.", "Find and fix the reported typo.", ] ``` A Markdown-based command (Claude Code or Gemini CLI style) would instead be a `.md` file with the prompt content directly as prose, optionally with frontmatter for metadata. ## Format Conversion [Section titled “Format Conversion”](#format-conversion) When you export a command to a provider, syllago converts between formats automatically. See [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) for details on how syllago handles cross-format translation. ## Working with Commands [Section titled “Working with Commands”](#working-with-commands) ```bash # Add a command from a provider syllago add commands/fix-typo --from claude-code # List commands in your library syllago list --type commands # Install a command to a different provider syllago install fix_typo --to gemini-cli # Inspect a command's metadata and source syllago inspect fix_typo ``` ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Content Types Overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — compatibility matrix and all content types * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) — how syllago converts between provider formats # Hooks > How syllago manages hooks across providers. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/hooks/) Hooks are event-driven automation scripts triggered by AI tool lifecycle events. They let you run custom logic when specific events occur — before or after a tool call, on session start, on file change, and so on. Supported by Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, Cline, and Kiro. ## Canonical Format [Section titled “Canonical Format”](#canonical-format) Syllago uses a provider-neutral canonical format for hooks, defined by the [Hook Interchange Format Specification](/reference/hooks-v1.md). ### Handler Types [Section titled “Handler Types”](#handler-types) Hooks support four handler types: | Type | Description | | --------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | `command` | Shell command executed as a subprocess | | `http` | HTTP POST to a URL | | `prompt` | LLM-evaluated logic (not all providers support this) | | `agent` | Delegated to an agent subprocess | ### Event Names (Canonical) [Section titled “Event Names (Canonical)”](#event-names-canonical) Hook events use provider-neutral names in the canonical format: | Canonical Event | Claude Code | Gemini CLI | | --------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------ | | `before_tool_execute` | `PreToolUse` | `before_tool_call` | | `after_tool_execute` | `PostToolUse` | `after_tool_call` | | `before_prompt` | `UserPromptSubmit` | `before_send` | | `agent_stop` | `Stop` | `on_complete` | | `session_start` | `SessionStart` | `session_start` | | `session_end` | `SessionEnd` | `session_end` | Syllago translates event names automatically when converting between providers. ### Matcher Types [Section titled “Matcher Types”](#matcher-types) Hooks use matchers to target specific tools or events: * **Bare string**: Tool vocabulary lookup (e.g., `"shell"`, `"file_read"`) * **Pattern object**: Regex on tool name (`{"pattern": "file_(read|write|edit)"}`) * **MCP object**: Server+tool targeting (`{"mcp": {"server": "github", "tool": "create_issue"}}`) * **Array**: OR logic across multiple matchers ### Exit Code Contract [Section titled “Exit Code Contract”](#exit-code-contract) | Code | Meaning | | ----- | --------------------------------------- | | `0` | Success — parse JSON output | | `1` | Non-blocking warning | | `2` | Block action (only if `blocking: true`) | | Other | Treated as warning | ## Provider Support [Section titled “Provider Support”](#provider-support) | Provider | Hook Support | Notes | | ---------------------------- | ------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Claude Code | Full | Richest output contract, all event types | | Gemini CLI | Full | Unique events: `before_model`, `after_model`, `before_tool_selection` | | Copilot CLI | Full | Conservative safety design | | Cursor | Yes | JSON merge into `.cursor/settings.json` | | Windsurf | Yes | JSON merge | | Codex | Yes | JSON hooks in `.codex/hooks.json` | | Cline | Yes | File-based executables in `.clinerules/hooks/` | | Kiro | Yes | Embedded in agent JSON files | | Zed, Roo Code, OpenCode, Amp | No | — | ## Hook Security [Section titled “Hook Security”](#hook-security) Syllago includes a **hook security scanner** that detects dangerous patterns when converting hooks: | Risk Level | Patterns Detected | | ---------- | --------------------------------------------------- | | **HIGH** | `curl`, `rm -rf`, piped execution, network commands | | **MEDIUM** | Broad matchers, wildcard patterns | | **LOW** | System paths, environment variable access | Security warnings appear in `syllago convert` and `syllago install` output. ## Portability Warnings [Section titled “Portability Warnings”](#portability-warnings) When converting hooks between providers, syllago surfaces warnings for: * **Unsupported events**: e.g., Gemini’s `before_model` has no Claude Code equivalent * **Capability mismatches**: e.g., `updated_input` (input rewriting) not supported by target * **Degradation applied**: hooks that use the `block`, `warn`, or `exclude` degradation strategy ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Hook Interchange Format Specification](/reference/hooks-v1.md) — full canonical format specification * [Content Types Overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — full provider compatibility matrix * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) — how syllago converts between provider formats # MCP Configs > How syllago manages MCP server configurations across providers. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/mcp-configs/) MCP (Model Context Protocol) server configurations define external tools and data sources that AI coding tools can connect to — things like database access, API integrations, or custom tool servers. Syllago stores these in a provider-neutral format and converts them to each provider’s native configuration on install. ## Syllago Format [Section titled “Syllago Format”](#syllago-format) MCP configs are stored as JSON with a `mcpServers` key. Each server entry specifies the command to run, its arguments, and any environment variables: ```json { "mcpServers": { "postgres": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres"], "env": { "DATABASE_URL": "postgresql://localhost:5432/mydb" } }, "github": { "command": "node", "args": ["github-server.js"], "env": { "GITHUB_TOKEN": "..." } } } } ``` Each server entry supports: * **`command`** — the executable to launch the MCP server * **`args`** — command-line arguments passed to the server process * **`env`** — environment variables available to the server at runtime * **`disabledTools`** — list of tools to disable on this server (supported by Kiro, Windsurf, Roo Code) ### disabledTools [Section titled “disabledTools”](#disabledtools) The `disabledTools` field lets you selectively disable specific tools from an MCP server: ```json { "mcpServers": { "github": { "command": "node", "args": ["github-server.js"], "disabledTools": ["create_issue", "delete_repo"] } } } ``` This field round-trips through Kiro, Windsurf, and Roo Code. Other providers drop it with a portability warning during conversion. ## Provider Support [Section titled “Provider Support”](#provider-support) MCP configs are supported by every provider: | Provider | Supported | Notes | | ----------- | --------- | ---------------------------------- | | Claude Code | Yes | `.claude.json`, `.mcp.json` | | Gemini CLI | Yes | `.gemini/settings.json` | | Cursor | Yes | `.cursor/mcp.json` | | Copilot CLI | Yes | `.copilot/mcp-config.json` | | Codex | Yes | JSON merge | | Kiro | Yes | `.kiro/settings/mcp.json` | | Windsurf | Yes | JSON merge | | Zed | Yes | Uses `context_servers` key | | Cline | Yes | VS Code globalStorage | | Roo Code | Yes | `.roo/mcp.json` | | OpenCode | Yes | `opencode.json` / `opencode.jsonc` | | Amp | Yes | `.amp/settings.json` | ## Format Differences [Section titled “Format Differences”](#format-differences) Most providers use the same `mcpServers` JSON structure, so conversion is straightforward. The notable exception is Zed. ### Zed: `context_servers` Mapping [Section titled “Zed: context\_servers Mapping”](#zed-context_servers-mapping) Zed uses the key `context_servers` instead of `mcpServers` in its configuration. Syllago handles this mapping automatically during install and import — no manual adjustment needed. Zed native format: ```json { "context_servers": { "postgres": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres"] } } } ``` When you import from Zed, syllago reads `context_servers` and normalizes it to `mcpServers`. When you install to Zed, syllago converts `mcpServers` back to `context_servers`. ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Content Types Overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — full compatibility matrix and content type listing * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) — how syllago converts between provider formats # Rules > How syllago manages rules — system prompts and custom instructions — across all providers. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/rules/) Rules are system prompts and custom instructions that guide AI behavior. They define coding standards, project conventions, response styles, and any other behavioral guidance for the AI tool. Rules are the most universal content type — every provider supports them. ## What Rules Do [Section titled “What Rules Do”](#what-rules-do) Rules tell the AI tool *how to behave*. Common uses: * Coding conventions (language preferences, formatting, patterns) * Project-specific context (architecture decisions, tech stack) * Response style (verbosity, tone, explanation depth) * Workflow instructions (testing requirements, review processes) ## syllago Format [Section titled “syllago Format”](#syllago-format) Rules in your library are stored as a directory containing two files: a `.syllago.yaml` metadata file and a Markdown content file. **Metadata** (`.syllago.yaml`): ```yaml id: d21d767c-1654-46a5-bc5c-d6aa8d5fbe2c name: typescript type: rules source_format: md source_type: provider added_at: 2026-03-11T19:23:53Z added_by: syllago ``` **Content** (`typescript.md`): ```markdown --- description: TypeScript coding conventions for this project globs: "**/*.ts" --- Use strict TypeScript with explicit return types. Prefer functional patterns over classes. Write Vitest tests for all new functions. ``` The `source_format` field records the original format the rule was imported from. The `source_type` field indicates whether it came from a provider config or was created directly. ## Provider Compatibility [Section titled “Provider Compatibility”](#provider-compatibility) Rules are supported by every provider: | Provider | Format | Extension | Notes | | ----------- | -------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------ | | Claude Code | Markdown | `.md` | `CLAUDE.md` or `.claude/rules/` | | Gemini CLI | Markdown | `.md` | `GEMINI.md` | | Copilot CLI | Markdown | `.md` | `.github/copilot-instructions.md` or `AGENTS.md` | | Codex | Markdown | `.md` | `AGENTS.md` | | Cursor | MDC | `.mdc` | `.cursor/rules/` or `.cursorrules` | | Windsurf | Markdown | `.md` | `.windsurfrules` or `.windsurf/rules/` | | Zed | Markdown | `.md` | `.rules`, `.cursorrules`, or `CLAUDE.md` | | Cline | Markdown | `.md` | `.clinerules/` | | Roo Code | Markdown | `.md` | `.roo/rules/` with mode-specific subdirectories | | OpenCode | Markdown | `.md` | `AGENTS.md` or `CLAUDE.md` | | Kiro | Markdown | `.md` | `.kiro/steering/` | | Amp | Markdown | `.md` | `AGENTS.md`, `AGENT.md`, `CLAUDE.md` | ## Format Differences [Section titled “Format Differences”](#format-differences) Most providers use plain Markdown, but two require conversion: ### Cursor (MDC format) [Section titled “Cursor (MDC format)”](#cursor-mdc-format) Cursor uses MDC (Markdown Component) format with `.mdc` extension. Syllago maps Markdown frontmatter fields to MDC metadata headers automatically. **syllago format** (Markdown with frontmatter): ```markdown --- description: TypeScript coding conventions globs: "**/*.ts" alwaysApply: false --- Use strict TypeScript with explicit return types. ``` **Cursor output** (`.mdc`): ```plaintext --- description: TypeScript coding conventions globs: "**/*.ts" alwaysApply: false --- Use strict TypeScript with explicit return types. ``` The structure looks similar, but the file extension and how the metadata is parsed differs. Cursor expects `.mdc` and interprets the header block as MDC metadata rather than YAML frontmatter. ### OpenCode (YAML format) [Section titled “OpenCode (YAML format)”](#opencode-yaml-format) OpenCode stores rules as YAML files. Syllago strips the Markdown frontmatter and converts the content into OpenCode’s YAML structure. **syllago format** (Markdown): ```markdown --- description: TypeScript coding conventions globs: "**/*.ts" --- Use strict TypeScript with explicit return types. ``` **OpenCode output** (`.yaml`): ```yaml name: typescript description: TypeScript coding conventions globs: - "**/*.ts" content: | Use strict TypeScript with explicit return types. ``` ## Working with Rules [Section titled “Working with Rules”](#working-with-rules) ### Creating a rule [Section titled “Creating a rule”](#creating-a-rule) ```bash syllago create rules my-rule --provider claude-code ``` This scaffolds a new rule directory under `local/` with template files and `.syllago.yaml` metadata. ### Importing from a provider [Section titled “Importing from a provider”](#importing-from-a-provider) ```bash syllago add --from claude-code ``` This scans the provider’s config directory and imports any rules into your syllago library in the provider-neutral format. ### Installing to a provider [Section titled “Installing to a provider”](#installing-to-a-provider) Rules install to the target provider’s rules directory, converting format automatically: ```bash syllago install my-rule --to cursor ``` ### Inspecting a rule [Section titled “Inspecting a rule”](#inspecting-a-rule) ```bash syllago inspect rules/claude-code/my-rule ``` Shows the full metadata and content for pre-install auditing. ## Further Reading [Section titled “Further Reading”](#further-reading) * [Content Types Overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — provider compatibility matrix and other content types * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) — how syllago converts between provider formats # Skills > How syllago manages skills across providers. [Source](/using-syllago/content-types/skills/) Skills are multi-file workflow packages that teach the AI specific capabilities. Unlike [rules](/using-syllago/content-types/rules.md), which provide general behavioral guidance, skills encode structured procedures — they include metadata (name, description, triggers) in frontmatter and detailed step-by-step instructions in the body. ## Syllago Format [Section titled “Syllago Format”](#syllago-format) Each skill in your library has a `.syllago.yaml` manifest and a Markdown content file with YAML frontmatter. ### Manifest (.syllago.yaml) [Section titled “Manifest (.syllago.yaml)”](#manifest-syllagoyaml) ```yaml id: a1c7bba3-d8ed-4590-8338-b96895737bf2 name: develop-docs type: skills source_format: md source_type: provider added_at: 2026-03-16T17:09:06Z added_by: syllago ``` The `type: skills` field identifies this content as a skill. The `source_format` records the original format so syllago can track provenance. ### Content File [Section titled “Content File”](#content-file) Skill content is a Markdown file with YAML frontmatter containing metadata: ```markdown --- name: develop-docs description: Documentation design and planning workflow. --- # DevelopDocs Orchestrates the complete documentation development lifecycle. ## Steps 1. Analyze the target audience and scope 2. Create an outline with section headings 3. Draft each section following the style guide 4. Review for technical accuracy 5. Format for the target platform ``` The frontmatter `name` and `description` fields are the skill’s identity — they determine how the AI discovers and activates the skill. The body contains the actual instructions. ## Canonical Fields [Section titled “Canonical Fields”](#canonical-fields) Skills support the following metadata fields in YAML frontmatter: | Field | Description | Provider Support | | --------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | | `name` | Skill name (required) | All providers | | `description` | What the skill does (required) | All providers | | `license` | License identifier (Agent Skills spec) | Claude Code, Cursor | | `compatibility` | Tool/version constraints | Claude Code, Cursor | | `metadata` | Arbitrary key-value pairs | Claude Code, Cursor | | `effort` | Time/complexity: `min`, `moderate`, `large`, `max` | Claude Code (native); others as prose | | `hooks` | Skill-scoped event hooks | Claude Code (native); others warn | ## Provider Compatibility [Section titled “Provider Compatibility”](#provider-compatibility) Skills are supported by most providers: | Provider | Format | Notes | | ----------- | --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | | Claude Code | Markdown + YAML frontmatter | Full field support including effort, hooks | | Gemini CLI | Markdown | Metadata embedded in body | | Cursor | Markdown | Full field support | | Copilot CLI | Markdown | Skills in `.github/skills/` | | Codex | Markdown | Skills in `.agents/skills/` | | Kiro | Markdown steering files | Skills in `.kiro/steering/` | | Windsurf | Markdown | Skills in `.windsurf/skills/` | | OpenCode | Markdown | Skills in `.opencode/skills/` | | Roo Code | Markdown | Skills in `.roo/skills/` | | Amp | Markdown | Skills in `.agents/skills/` | Zed and Cline do not support skills. ## Format Differences [Section titled “Format Differences”](#format-differences) ### Frontmatter Handling [Section titled “Frontmatter Handling”](#frontmatter-handling) The key conversion challenge for skills is frontmatter. Claude Code uses standard YAML frontmatter (`---` delimiters), but other providers handle metadata differently: * **Claude Code** stores `name` and `description` as YAML frontmatter. The AI reads these fields to understand when and how to apply the skill. * **Gemini CLI** does not use YAML frontmatter. When converting, syllago either embeds the metadata as a heading/description in the Markdown body or omits it if Gemini can infer the skill’s purpose from context. * **Kiro** uses JSON-based steering files. Syllago wraps the Markdown content into JSON string fields and maps frontmatter keys to their JSON equivalents. * **OpenCode** uses Markdown-based skills with its own conventions for metadata. ### Conversion Example [Section titled “Conversion Example”](#conversion-example) Converting a skill from Claude Code format to Gemini CLI: ```bash syllago convert develop-docs --to gemini-cli ``` The Claude Code source with frontmatter: ```markdown --- name: develop-docs description: Documentation design and planning workflow. --- # DevelopDocs Orchestrates the complete documentation development lifecycle... ``` Becomes a Gemini CLI file without frontmatter, with metadata folded into the body: ```markdown # DevelopDocs Documentation design and planning workflow. Orchestrates the complete documentation development lifecycle... ``` The `description` field is preserved as prose rather than lost, and tool name references in the body are automatically translated to Gemini’s equivalents. See [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) for the full conversion model. ## Working with Skills [Section titled “Working with Skills”](#working-with-skills) ```bash # Import a skill from your current provider syllago add --from claude-code # List all skills in your library syllago list --type skills # Install a skill to a specific provider syllago install develop-docs --to gemini-cli # Inspect a skill's metadata and content syllago inspect develop-docs ``` ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Content Types Overview](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — compatibility matrix and all content types * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) — how syllago converts between provider formats # Format Conversion > How syllago converts content between AI coding tool formats. [Source](/using-syllago/format-conversion/) ## How Conversion Works [Section titled “How Conversion Works”](#how-conversion-works) Syllago uses a hub-and-spoke model. Content in your library is stored in syllago format — a provider-neutral representation that syllago converts to and from each provider’s native format: ```plaintext Source Provider -> syllago format -> Target Provider ``` When you run `syllago install my-skill --to cursor` or `syllago convert my-rule --to windsurf`, syllago: 1. Reads the content from your library (already in syllago format) 2. Converts to the target provider’s format 3. Translates tool names, metadata, and frontmatter automatically ## Compatibility Matrix [Section titled “Compatibility Matrix”](#compatibility-matrix) | Content Type | Coverage | Notes | | ------------ | ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Rules | Every provider | Format varies (Markdown, MDC) but content fully preserved | | Skills | Most providers | Metadata rendering varies by provider capability | | Agents | Most providers | Codex uses TOML format, Kiro uses Markdown with YAML frontmatter (auto-converted) | | MCP configs | Every provider | Zed uses `context_servers` key (handled automatically) | | Hooks | Many providers | Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, Cline, Kiro | | Commands | Many providers | Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot CLI, Codex, OpenCode | | Loadouts | Claude Code (v1) | Additional provider emitters planned | ## Provider-Specific Format Notes [Section titled “Provider-Specific Format Notes”](#provider-specific-format-notes) ### Cursor [Section titled “Cursor”](#cursor) Rules are converted to MDC (Markdown Component) format with `.mdc` extension. Frontmatter fields map to MDC metadata headers. ### Codex [Section titled “Codex”](#codex) Agent definitions use TOML format. Syllago auto-converts between TOML and Markdown frontmatter. ### Kiro [Section titled “Kiro”](#kiro) Agent definitions use Markdown with YAML frontmatter (14 fields). Also supports a JSON CLI agent format with embedded MCP servers and lifecycle hooks. Rules and skills are Markdown steering files. ### Amp [Section titled “Amp”](#amp) Rules use `AGENTS.md` format with globs array frontmatter. MCP configs use a provider-specific JSON key. ### Zed [Section titled “Zed”](#zed) MCP server configs use the `context_servers` key instead of `mcpServers`. Syllago handles this mapping automatically. ### OpenCode [Section titled “OpenCode”](#opencode) Rules use YAML format. Syllago strips Markdown frontmatter and converts to OpenCode’s YAML structure. ## What Gets Preserved [Section titled “What Gets Preserved”](#what-gets-preserved) * **Content body** — always preserved in full * **Metadata** — mapped to provider-equivalent fields where possible * **Tool names** — automatically translated (e.g., Claude Code’s `Read` becomes Gemini’s `read_file`) * **Frontmatter** — converted to provider-appropriate format (YAML, TOML, JSON, or embedded as prose) When metadata can’t be represented in the target format, it’s either embedded as a comment or note in the content body, or reported as a **portability warning** during conversion. ## Portability Warnings [Section titled “Portability Warnings”](#portability-warnings) Both `syllago convert` and `syllago install` surface warnings when content uses features unsupported by the target provider. Warnings appear inline in text mode and in the `warnings` array in JSON mode. Common warnings include: * Unsupported hook events (e.g., Gemini’s `before_model` has no Claude Code equivalent) * Missing capability support (e.g., `input_rewrite` not available on target) * Fields dropped during conversion (e.g., `disabledTools` on MCP servers) ## Canonical Tool Names [Section titled “Canonical Tool Names”](#canonical-tool-names) The canonical format uses provider-neutral tool names: | Canonical | Claude Code | Gemini CLI | Cursor | | ------------ | ----------- | ------------------- | ------------------ | | `file_read` | Read | read\_file | read\_file | | `file_write` | Write | write\_file | edit\_file | | `file_edit` | Edit | replace | edit\_file | | `shell` | Bash | run\_shell\_command | run\_terminal\_cmd | | `search` | Grep | grep\_search | grep\_search | | `find` | Glob | glob | file\_search | | `web_fetch` | WebFetch | web\_fetch | — | | `agent` | Agent | — | — | Translation happens automatically during conversion. You never need to manually adjust tool names. ## Using the Convert Command [Section titled “Using the Convert Command”](#using-the-convert-command) ```bash # Convert a specific item to stdout syllago convert my-skill --to gemini-cli # Save to a file syllago convert my-rule --to windsurf --output ./windsurf-rule.md # JSON output with portability warnings syllago convert my-skill --to cursor --json # Check compatibility across all providers syllago compat my-skill ``` ## Hook Conversion [Section titled “Hook Conversion”](#hook-conversion) For hooks specifically, syllago uses the [Hook Interchange Format](/reference/hooks-v1.md) as the canonical representation. This handles: * Event name translation between providers * Matcher type conversion (tool vocabulary, regex, MCP targeting) * Timeout unit normalization (seconds canonical, auto-converts to/from milliseconds) * Capability degradation (block, warn, or exclude based on target support) ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Content Types](/using-syllago/content-types.md) — what each content type supports * [Hook Interchange Format](/reference/hooks-v1.md) — full hook conversion specification * `syllago compat` — check provider compatibility # Providers > The AI coding tools syllago integrates with, their supported content types, and how provider detection works. [Source](/using-syllago/providers/) A **provider** is an AI coding tool that syllago can read from and write to. Each provider has its own configuration format, file locations, and set of supported content types. syllago handles the differences so you can share configuration between them. ## Checking available providers [Section titled “Checking available providers”](#checking-available-providers) To see the full list of providers and what each one supports: ```bash syllago info providers ``` ## Content type support matrix [Section titled “Content type support matrix”](#content-type-support-matrix) Not every provider supports every content type. The matrix below shows what each provider can handle. | Provider | Slug | Rules | Skills | Agents | MCP | Hooks | Commands | | ---------------------------------------------------- | ------------- | :---: | :----: | :----: | :-: | :---: | :------: | | [Claude Code](/using-syllago/providers/claude-code.md) | `claude-code` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | [Gemini CLI](/using-syllago/providers/gemini-cli.md) | `gemini-cli` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | [Cursor](/using-syllago/providers/cursor.md) | `cursor` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | [Copilot CLI](/using-syllago/providers/copilot.md) | `copilot-cli` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | [Codex](/using-syllago/providers/codex.md) | `codex` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | [Kiro](/using-syllago/providers/kiro.md) | `kiro` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | | [Windsurf](/using-syllago/providers/windsurf.md) | `windsurf` | ✅ | ✅ | — | ✅ | ✅ | — | | [OpenCode](/using-syllago/providers/opencode.md) | `opencode` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | ✅ | | [Roo Code](/using-syllago/providers/roo-code.md) | `roo-code` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — | — | | [Cline](/using-syllago/providers/cline.md) | `cline` | ✅ | — | — | ✅ | ✅ | — | | [Amp](/using-syllago/providers/amp.md) | `amp` | ✅ | ✅ | — | ✅ | — | — | | [Zed](/using-syllago/providers/zed.md) | `zed` | ✅ | — | — | ✅ | — | — | Every provider supports rules. Beyond that, support varies based on what each tool’s configuration format can express. ## Auto-detection [Section titled “Auto-detection”](#auto-detection) When you run `syllago init`, syllago scans your system for installed providers and configures itself to work with the ones it finds. You don’t need to manually specify which providers you use. ## The `--from` and `--to` flags [Section titled “The --from and --to flags”](#the---from-and---to-flags) When working with content, the `--from` flag tells syllago which provider to read from, and the `--to` flag tells it which provider to write to. Use the provider slug as the value: ```bash # Add content from Cursor to your library syllago add --from cursor # Install a rule to Gemini CLI syllago install my-rule --to gemini-cli ``` If the source and target providers use different configuration formats, syllago converts automatically. See [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) for details. ## Provider compatibility [Section titled “Provider compatibility”](#provider-compatibility) Use `syllago compat` to check which providers support a specific content item: ```bash syllago compat my-skill ``` This shows a matrix of which providers can handle the item, with any conversion warnings. ## Provider descriptions [Section titled “Provider descriptions”](#provider-descriptions) * **Claude Code** (`claude-code`) — Anthropic’s CLI and IDE agent with full support for all content types including loadouts. * **Gemini CLI** (`gemini-cli`) — Google’s CLI agent with full support for all six standard content types. * **Cursor** (`cursor`) — AI-native code editor supporting all six content types with MDC format for rules. * **Copilot CLI** (`copilot-cli`) — GitHub’s CLI agent supporting all six content types. * **Codex** (`codex`) — OpenAI’s CLI agent supporting all six content types with TOML agent format. * **Kiro** (`kiro`) — AWS’s AI IDE supporting rules, skills, agents, MCP, and hooks with Markdown/YAML frontmatter agent format. * **Windsurf** (`windsurf`) — AI-native code editor supporting rules, skills, hooks, and MCP. * **OpenCode** (`opencode`) — Terminal-based AI coding tool supporting rules, skills, agents, MCP, and commands. * **Roo Code** (`roo-code`) — VS Code extension supporting rules, skills, agents, and MCP with mode-specific rule directories. * **Cline** (`cline`) — VS Code extension supporting rules, hooks (file-based), and MCP. * **Amp** (`amp`) — AI coding assistant supporting rules (AGENTS.md), skills, and MCP. * **Zed** (`zed`) — High-performance editor supporting rules and MCP with unique `context_servers` JSON key. # Amp > How syllago works with Amp. [Source](/using-syllago/providers/amp/) Amp is an AI coding assistant that uses `AGENTS.md` for its rule files. ## Provider Details [Section titled “Provider Details”](#provider-details) | Detail | Value | | --------------------------- | -------------------------- | | **Slug** | `amp` | | **Config directory** | `~/.config/amp` | | **Supported content types** | Rules, Skills, MCP Configs | ## Supported Content Types [Section titled “Supported Content Types”](#supported-content-types) | Content Type | Supported | Install Method | | ------------ | --------- | -------------- | | Rules | Yes | Symlink | | Skills | Yes | Symlink | | MCP Configs | Yes | JSON merge | | Agents | No | — | | Hooks | No | — | | Commands | No | — | ## File Format and Location [Section titled “File Format and Location”](#file-format-and-location) | Content Type | Project Location | Global Location | Format | | ------------ | -------------------- | -------------------------- | -------- | | Rules | `AGENTS.md` | `~/.config/amp/AGENTS.md` | Markdown | | Skills | `.agents/skills/` | `~/.config/agents/skills/` | Markdown | | MCP Configs | `.amp/settings.json` | — | JSON | ## Discovery Paths [Section titled “Discovery Paths”](#discovery-paths) When adding content from Amp, syllago looks in these locations: | Content Type | Discovery Paths | | ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Rules | `AGENTS.md`, `AGENT.md`, `CLAUDE.md` | | Skills | `.agents/skills/`, `.claude/skills/` (compatibility fallback) | | MCP Configs | `.amp/settings.json` (workspace-scoped, requires user approval in Amp) | ## Format Notes [Section titled “Format Notes”](#format-notes) Amp adds an implicit `**/` prefix to glob patterns at runtime. When converting rules to Amp format, syllago strips any existing `**/` prefix from globs to avoid double-prefixing. ## Detection [Section titled “Detection”](#detection) Syllago detects Amp by checking for the `~/.config/amp` directory. ## Working with Amp [Section titled “Working with Amp”](#working-with-amp) ```bash # Add content from Amp syllago add --from amp # Install content to Amp syllago install my-rule --to amp # Check compatibility with Amp syllago compat my-skill ``` ## See Also [Section titled “See Also”](#see-also) * [Providers Overview](/using-syllago/providers.md) * [Format Conversion](/using-syllago/format-conversion.md) # Claude Code > How syllago works with Claude Code.

Only present when `source_type` is `provider`. | | `source_hash` | string | Conditional | SHA-256 hash of the original content, prefixed with `sha256:`. Used for change detection. | | `has_source` | boolean | Conditional | Whether the original source file is preserved alongside the converted content. | | `source` | string | Conditional | Alternate source descriptor. Used instead of `source_type`/`source_format` for locally created items (value: `created`). | | `added_at` | string (ISO 8601) | Yes | Timestamp when the item was added to the library. | | `added_by` | string | Yes | Who or what added the item — `syllago`, a version number like `0.6.1`, or a person’s name. | **Conditional fields** appear based on how the content was acquired. Imported content has `source_format`, `source_type`, and usually `source_hash`. Locally created content uses `source: created` instead. ## Examples [Section titled “Examples”](#examples) ### Rules (imported from a provider) [Section titled “Rules (imported from a provider)”](#rules-imported-from-a-provider) ```yaml id: 671fbd47-ce51-4d2b-8b4c-dc04fa4764d7 name: typescript type: rules source_format: md source_type: provider source_hash: sha256:9fa5fdb87b29dac26eb947717d8a0e0b39d8dc2268393f682f061097c0410206 added_at: 2026-03-16T17:09:06Z added_by: syllago ``` Standard pattern for content pulled from a provider. The `source_hash` lets syllago detect when the upstream content has changed. ### Hooks (imported with source file preserved) [Section titled “Hooks (imported with source file preserved)”](#hooks-imported-with-source-file-preserved) ```yaml id: 0e15bb54-3187-4673-9e2e-d1d44e40c951 name: settings type: hooks source_provider: claude-code source_format: json source_type: provider has_source: true added_at: 2026-03-05T22:08:18Z added_by: 0.6.1 ``` When `has_source` is `true`, the original file (here, a JSON file) is stored in the item’s directory alongside any converted versions. The `source_provider` field records which provider it came from. ### Loadouts (locally created) [Section titled “Loadouts (locally created)”](#loadouts-locally-created) ```yaml id: 3b9656ca-ce37-4146-aed6-5f67244688df name: testing type: loadouts source: created added_at: 2026-03-12T17:16:18Z added_by: Holden Hewett ``` Content created with [`syllago create`](/using-syllago/cli-reference/create.md) uses `source: created` instead of the `source_type`/`source_format`/`source_hash` fields. The `added_by` field records the user who created it. ## Directory Layout [Section titled “Directory Layout”](#directory-layout) Each content item lives in its own directory within the library. The `.syllago.yaml` file sits alongside the actual content files: ```plaintext library/ rules/ typescript/ .syllago.yaml typescript.md hooks/ settings/ .syllago.yaml settings.json loadouts/ testing/ .syllago.yaml testing.yaml ``` The directory name matches the `name` field in `.syllago.yaml`. Content files use whatever format is appropriate for their [type](/using-syllago/content-types.md). # The TUI > How to navigate the syllago terminal user interface. [Source](/using-syllago/tui/) Running `syllago` with no arguments launches the interactive terminal user interface (TUI). It gives you a visual way to browse and manage your library, registries, and providers without memorizing CLI commands. ```sh syllago # or use the alias syl ``` ## What you can do [Section titled “What you can do”](#what-you-can-do) * Browse your library, registries, and providers in one place * Install and uninstall content to/from providers * Add content from providers * Search and filter content with live results * Inspect content details ## Keyboard shortcuts [Section titled “Keyboard shortcuts”](#keyboard-shortcuts) ### Navigation [Section titled “Navigation”](#navigation) | Key | Action | | -------------- | ---------------------------------------- | | Up/Down or j/k | Navigate lists and scroll | | PgUp/PgDn | Jump a full viewport | | Home/End | Jump to first/last item | | Enter | Open item / confirm action | | Esc | Go back one level | | Tab/Shift+Tab | Switch focus between sidebar and content | | Ctrl+N/Ctrl+P | Next/previous item in detail view | ### Actions [Section titled “Actions”](#actions) | Key | Action | | --- | ---------------------------------------- | | / | Search (live filtering with match count) | | ? | Toggle keyboard shortcut help | | i | Install selected item | | u | Uninstall selected item | | a | Add content (context-specific) | | r | Remove item | | c | Copy content to clipboard | | H | Toggle hidden items | ## Mouse support [Section titled “Mouse support”](#mouse-support) Click to select cards, items, tabs, breadcrumbs, and modal buttons. The scroll wheel works in all scrollable areas. ## TUI vs CLI [Section titled “TUI vs CLI”](#tui-vs-cli) The TUI and CLI are equivalent — anything you can do in the TUI, you can do with [CLI commands](/using-syllago/cli-reference.md). The TUI is for interactive exploration; the CLI is for scripting and automation (`--json` output on all commands). ## Accessibility [Section titled “Accessibility”](#accessibility) For screen reader users, CLI commands with `--json` output are recommended. Colors can be disabled with `NO_COLOR=1` or `--no-color`.
