How to scaffold a research agent from the quickstart template with Tardigrade

Generate a working Tardigrade agent project and adapt its atoms to your own task.

Who it is forA TypeScript developer who wants a first working agent project without wiring the framework by hand.

The problemStarting an agent framework from an empty repo means guessing how atoms, actors and services fit together.

The outcomeA generated project with an actor composed from atoms, ready to edit for a specific research task.

What you need first

  • Bun installed, since the README uses bunx and bun add
  • Working knowledge of TypeScript
  • A model and credentials configured for the generated project
  • A Cloudflare account for Cloudflare hosting, or a Celld fleet with a storage bucket for self-hosting

Steps

  1. Run bunx tardie init meeseeks --template quickstart to generate the starter project.
  2. In the generated project, change the role and style atoms so they describe your research task.
  3. Compose the researcher actor with defineActor, codeMode, compact and infer, as shown in the README.
  4. Run bunx wrangler dev to start the project locally and check that it runs.

Prompt for your agent

Using the repo clavia-labs/tardigrade, run `bunx tardie init meeseeks --template quickstart` in a new directory named <project-name>, then change the role atom to describe <target research task>. Expected output: a project with an actor defined by defineActor that uses atom, codeMode, compact and infer. Verify that the actor file imports from tardie/core and tardie/agent.

Caveat. The README warns that Tardigrade is under active development and APIs may change, so pin the version you generate against.
