# 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.
