Installation

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20 or later

Canonical Setup

Install the AgentV CLI:

npm install -g agentv

Then load the onboarding skill and follow the instructions:

agentv skills get agentv-onboarding

Paste the output to your AI agent and ask it to set up AgentV in your repository.

Skills

AgentV ships skill content inside the CLI package, version-matched to the binary. No separate plugin install required.

agentv skills list                         # list available skills
agentv skills get agentv-bench             # load a specific skill
agentv skills get agentv-bench --full      # include references and templates
agentv skills get agentv-bench --json      # machine-readable output
agentv skills get --all                    # load all skills

Verify Workspace Files

After setup, you should have:

• .agentv/config.yaml
• .agentv/targets.yaml
• .env.example

test -f .env.example
test -f .agentv/config.yaml
test -f .agentv/targets.yaml

Claude Code Plugin (Optional)

For Claude Code users who prefer plugin-based skill discovery, the agentv-dev plugin provides marketplace integration. Each plugin SKILL.md is a discovery stub that loads the full skill content from the CLI:

npx allagents plugin marketplace add EntityProcess/agentv
npx allagents plugin install agentv-dev@agentv

npx allagents is command-surface compatible with claude and copilot.

Troubleshooting

Skills directory not found

Reinstall the CLI to ensure bundled skills are present:

npm install -g agentv
agentv skills list

Recover setup manually

Run:

agentv init
