How it works

It starts from the moment you fire up your autonomous assistant (Galyarder Agent, OpenClaw, Hermes, or Claude Code). As soon as the framework sees that you're initiating a mission, it doesn't just jump into trying to execute tasks. Instead, it steps back and analyzes the high-level business intent behind your request.

Once it's teased a comprehensive strategy out of the conversation, it presents it to you in structured segments short enough to actually verify and digest.

After you've signed off on the direction, your agent puts together a mission-critical execution plan that's designed for deterministic precision. It emphasizes institutional-grade verification, lean operations (YAGNI), and systematic accuracy, ensuring every action provides maximum leverage toward your goal.

Next up, once you say "go", it launches a subagent-driven-orchestration process, routing each engineering task through the host's available delegation model while preserving the same review and orchestration workflow.

This is the Humans 3.0 protocol in action: the transition from deterministic execution into Autonomous Goal Integration (AGI).

In this framework, AGI doesn't mean "sentient machines"; it means a self-evolving system capable of taking high-level business goals and independently orchestrating the entire lifecycle—from requirement extraction and high-integrity implementation to operational auditing and market distribution—without human micro-management. It's the ultimate realization of the 1-Man Army: one founder providing the vision, while the framework provides the autonomous brain.

The AGI Lifecycle

Galyarder Framework bridges the gap between high-level intent and ground-level execution through a deterministic 5-stage process:

1. Intent Extraction: Distilling business goals into project-scoped Linear tickets and tactical specifications.
2. Strategic Blueprinting: Mission design via formal verification and Vertical Slice (Tracer Bullet) implementation plans.
3. Autonomous Implementation: Clinical execution via 40+ specialized logic engines and high-fidelity institutional standards.
4. Operational Auditing: Automated live-environment verification and zero-trust security hardening.
5. Autonomous Distribution: Programmatic asset generation and behavioral-targeted market deployment.

What you get

A high-integrity workforce in a single repository:

• 40 Specialized Agents: Engineering, Growth, Security, Product, and Legal experts.
• Galyarder Neural Link: Self-mapping knowledge graph with deterministic AST parsing and semantic inference.
• 132 Production-Ready Skills: SOPs for TDD, SEO, CRO, FinOps, and more.
• 54 Design Specifications: Elite UI specs (SuperHuman, Bmw, Apple) to enforce aesthetic law.
• 20+ Slash Commands: Instant orchestration triggers (e.g., /tdd, /review, /marketing).
• Universal Compatibility: Native support for Galyarder Agent, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, and 9 other platforms.

Usage: The High-Integrity Protocol

Galyarder Framework does not merely execute; it orchestrates. Every mission follows a non-negotiable sequence of high-fidelity protocols to ensure zero-slop output.

The Intelligence Layer of the Galyarder Ecosystem

Galyarder Framework is the underlying brain designed to power the next generation of autonomous entities.

• Galyarder Agent: The Entity. Digital personas with recursive long-term memory, stable visual identity, and universal presence.
• Galyarder HQ: The Control Plane. Master governance for orchestrating swarms and maintaining operational control.
• Galyarder Framework: The Intelligence. The specialized workforce and elite SOPs.

Installation: The Digital Company Protocol

Follow this sequence to transform any directory into a high-integrity Digital Company.

Step 1: Global CLI Installation (One-Time)

Bootstrap the framework and link the core commands to your system's PATH.

Option A: NPM (Recommended)

Install directly from the global registry. This automatically links all galyarder commands.

npm install -g galyarder-framework

Option B: Skills.sh (Agentic)

Pull specific intelligence bundles directly into your agent environment.

# Pull everything
npx skills add galyarderlabs/galyarder-framework --skill full

# Or pull by department (engineering, growth, security, etc.)
npx skills add galyarderlabs/galyarder-framework --skill engineering

Option C: Git Clone

For developers who want to stay on the bleeding edge of the source.

# 1. Clone the intelligence layer
git clone https://github.com/galyarderlabs/galyarder-framework.git ~/galyarder-framework

# 2. Link commands globally
cd ~/galyarder-framework
./scripts/setup-cli.sh

Step 2: Initialize & Deploy (Per Project)

Navigate to your specific project (e.g., ~/projects/my-app) and deploy the workforce.

# 1. Initialize Digital Headquarters
galyarder scaffold

# 2. Deploy Agents to your mission environment
# Available: cursor, windsurf, kilocode, augment, openclaw, hermes, antigravity, galyarder-agent
galyarder deploy --tool <name>

Managed & Autonomous Options

A. Official Marketplaces

Recommended for rapid integration with cloud orchestrators.

• Claude Code / Copilot CLI:

  # 1. Add the Galyarder Marketplace
  /plugin marketplace add galyarderlabs/galyarder-framework
  
  # 2. Install the full bundle
  /plugin install galyarder-framework@galyarderlabs-marketplace
  
  # OR install departments selectively (9 available)
  /plugin install executive-dept@galyarderlabs-marketplace
  /plugin install engineering-dept@galyarderlabs-marketplace
  # ... (growth, security, product, infrastructure, legal-finance, knowledge)

  Note: The framework uses a Universal Plugin Architecture. All assets are unified into agents/, skills/, and commands/ for 100% compatibility across Google, Anthropic, and Microsoft environments.

B. Autonomous Directives (Codex / OpenCode)

For tools that can autonomously fetch logic via direct instructions.

• OpenAI Codex: Tell Codex: Fetch and follow instructions from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/galyarderlabs/galyarder-framework/main/.codex/INSTALL.md

• OpenCode: Tell OpenCode: Fetch and follow instructions from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/galyarderlabs/galyarder-framework/main/.opencode/INSTALL.md

Philosophy

• Verified Logic — Output is a liability until it is systematically verified.
• Context Economy — RTK proxy usage is mandatory to maintain high-signal communication.
• Math Over Magic — Base decisions on empirical data, ROI, and institutional probability.
• Goal to Market — A mission is not complete until it achieves market-ready status.

Technical Integrity: The Karpathy Principles

The framework enforces rigid adherence to the Karpathy Principles to eliminate slop:

• Think Before Coding: Mandatory sequentialthinking and context7 MCP loops before any implementation.
• Simplicity First: Minimum effort to solve the objective. Zero speculative abstractions.
• Surgical Changes: Touch only what is necessary. Perfect alignment with existing infrastructure.
• Goal-Driven Execution: Empirical verification via a mission-first methodology.

Digital Infrastructure: 8 High-Integrity Silos

The workforce is organized into specialized departments:

• Executive: Strategic oversight and master orchestration.
• Engineering: Deterministic implementation and TDD factory.
• Growth: Behavioral arbitrage, marketing engineering, and design systems.
• Security: Professional auditing and advanced offensive security.
• Product: Roadmap integrity and strategic extraction.
• Infrastructure: Reliability physics and automated deployment.
• Legal-Finance: Regulatory compliance and token FinOps.
