Generate and continuously refresh CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, MCP config, and editor rules from the live codebase with Caliber

Use Caliber when agent-facing repo instructions have started drifting from the actual codebase and you want one workflow to audit, generate, review, and keep those files fresh across multiple coding agents.

Prerequisites

Node.js 20+, terminal access, and either Claude Code or Cursor CLI for /setup-caliber, or the Caliber CLI workflow for other supported agents.

Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:

• npx @rely-ai/caliber bootstrap
• Run from your terminal (PowerShell, CMD, or Git Bash) — not from inside an IDE chat window. Open a terminal, cd into your project folder, then run npx @rely-ai/caliber bootstrap.
• npx @rely-ai/caliber bootstrap ← one-time, 2 seconds
• git clone https://github.com/caliber-ai-org/ai-setup.git

Requirements and caveats from upstream:

• <a href="https://nodejs.org"><img src="https://img.shields.io/node/v/@rely-ai/caliber" alt="node"></a>
• Requires Node.js >= 20.
• TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, Java, Ruby, Terraform, and more. Language and framework detection is fully LLM-driven — no hardcoded mappings. Caliber works on any project.

Basic usage or getting-started notes:

• Don't use Claude Code or Cursor? Run caliber init instead — it's the same setup as a CLI wizard. Works with any LLM provider: bring your own Anthropic, OpenAI, or Vertex AI key.

• Pre-commit hooks run the refresh loop automatically. New team members get nudged to bootstrap on their first session.

• Caliber watches your AI coding sessions and learns from them. Hooks capture tool usage, failures, and your corrections — then an LLM distills operational patterns into CALIBER_LEARNINGS.md.
