◆ enet — exchanet methods manager

Install, scaffold and manage exchanet AI coding methods in any project, with any agent.

npm install -g @exchanet/enet

What is enet?

enet is the package manager for exchanet methods. It installs AI coding method adapters directly into your project — in the right place for your agent — and provides tools to scaffold modules, validate manifests, and keep everything up to date.

Think of it as brew or npm, but for AI coding architecture methods.

Available Methods

| Method | What it does | |---|---| | modular-design | Universal modular architecture. Auto-generated Admin Panel, zero hardcoded config. | | pdca-t | ≥99% test coverage, zero vulnerabilities, systematic quality validation. | | iris | Continuous improvement of existing systems without breaking architecture. | | enterprise-builder | Large-scale planning for complex projects before writing code. |

The registry is live — new methods appear automatically without updating enet.

Usage

Install a method

enet install modular-design
enet install pdca-t
enet install iris
enet install enterprise-builder

enet detects your AI agent automatically and places the adapter in the right location:

| Agent detected | Installs to | |---|---| | Cursor | .cursor/rules/enet-modular-design.md | | Windsurf | Appended to .windsurfrules | | GitHub Copilot | .github/copilot-instructions.md | | None detected | .enet/modular-design.md |

Override with --agent cursor\|windsurf\|copilot\|generic.

enet list
enet list --installed

Project status and health

enet status    # installed methods + detected agent
enet doctor    # full diagnostic — manifests, schema, agent, Node version

Scaffold a new module

enet new module products
enet new module activity-logger --section monitoring
enet new ui-pack dark-theme
enet new integration stripe --section billing

Generates manifest.json + handler + README. Manifest first, always.

Create a manifest interactively

enet init
enet init --json    # print to stdout without writing

Validate manifests

enet validate              # validate all modules in project
enet validate --all        # recursive
enet validate --strict     # warnings become errors

Keep methods up to date

enet update              # update all installed methods
enet update modular-design       # update a specific method

How it works

1. enet install modular-design fetches registry.json from this repo
2. Finds the repo for modular-design (exchanet/method_modular_design)
3. Detects your agent (Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot...)
4. Downloads the right adapter from GitHub in real time
5. Writes it to the correct location in your project

The adapter content always comes live from the source repo. enet update re-fetches to get the latest version.

The Registry

Methods are defined in registry.json in this repo. The CLI fetches it on every run — no local state, always current.

To add a new exchanet method to the registry, add an entry to registry.json and open a PR. No CLI code changes needed.

    "your-method": {

      "description": "What it does.",
      "repo": "exchanet/method_your_repo",
      "adapters": {

        "generic":  "adapters/generic.md"
      }
    }
  }
}

Requirements

• Node.js 18 or higher
• An AI coding agent (Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, or any agent)
