4 use cases

  • Stop a coding agent from breaking your written project rules

    Hook Abide into your agent so each edit is checked against your instruction files and violations are repaired in the same turn.

    View prompt
    In the repo <repo-path>, install Abide with `npx @coldtea/abide init` and confirm that `.abide/rubric.json` was created after the first agent turn. Then ask the agent for an edit that breaks one rule in AGENTS.md and report the rule id and file that Abide names.

  • Find every existing rule violation in a codebase at once

    Judge current files as if they had just been written and get a report by rule and by file.

    View prompt
    In the repo <repo-path>, run `abide audit src/` and save the output. Then list the three rules with the most violations and the three files with the most violations, and report the total cost the README-style audit printed.

  • Switch off or rewrite rules that never fire or fire wrongly

    Score each rule against your git history, disable the broken ones, and have the agent rewrite the rest.

    View prompt
    In the repo <repo-path>, run `abide report`, then `abide calibrate`, then `abide tune`. Report which rules were switched off or rewritten, and confirm `.abide/rubric.json` still parses.

  • Give every teammate the same rule enforcement through the repo

    Install Abide into the project so the hooks travel with the checkout instead of each person's machine.

    View prompt
    In the repo <repo-path>, install Abide into the project with `init --project` for the agent in use, then list the files that were created or changed and confirm which ones should be committed. Report any file that is outside .abide/ or the agent's project extension path.

How to use Abide

  1. Check you have what it needs: A TypeSafe API key from typesafe.ai, or a Vercel AI Gateway key; A terminal with npx available; A git repository with project instruction files such as AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md.
  2. Open coldteadotai/abide on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Run npx @coldtea/abide login, choose the key type, and paste your key once.
  4. Run npx @coldtea/abide init in your repo to install hooks into every agent found on the machine.
  5. For Codex, start codex, type /hooks, and accept the four Abide entries. (inferred, check the README)
  6. Start your agent as usual, for example claude, and let its first turn compile your rules into .abide/rubric.json.

These steps come from our top use case, Stop a coding agent from breaking your written project rules, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
