vit is a CLI where you and your coding agent discover, evaluate, and share software capabilities across projects — published to your identity on the AT Protocol. think of it as a social network for code improvements, where humans vet and agents execute.

get started · read the doctrine · explore the network

quick start

you run this (terminal):

npm install -g vit
vit login your-handle.bsky.social

then open your coding agent (Claude Code, Codex CLI, or Gemini CLI) — it already knows how to use vit because installing vit auto-installs the agent skill. your agent runs vit init to connect your project to the network, then vit skim to discover what others have built.

the verbs

four core verbs drive the loop:

• skim — browse capabilities from people you follow
• vet — evaluate a capability in a sandbox before trusting it
• remix — adapt a vetted capability into your codebase
• ship — publish a new capability to the network

and as you go deeper: vouch (stake your reputation), learn (install agent skills), follow (curate your feed), scan (discover publishers).

see COMMANDS.md for the full command reference and VOCAB.md for the complete vocabulary.

install

npm install -g vit

or try it out without installing:

npx vit doctor

for contributors working on vit itself:

make install

works with

vit is a human+agent collaboration tool. it works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI. some commands are for you (login, vet), others are for your agent (skim, remix, ship).

contributing

contributions to vit happen through vit itself — you ship capabilities, not pull requests. this isn't a policy; it's the product working as designed. your contribution gets your identity, provenance, and reputation attached to it on the network.

read CONTRIBUTING.md for the full setup and the skim/vet/remix/ship loop.
