Wire in other agents

Trail-code wires Cursor, Codex and other AGENTS.md readers, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Kiro, Antigravity, Grok, Hermes and AdaL, and serves any agent that speaks MCP. One command does it:

npm install -g @trailhq/trail-code && trail init
# detects your agents and writes each one's native instruction file;
# Claude Code additionally gets the live statusline + hooks

Pick agents interactively

On a terminal, init shows you every agent it knows about, flags the ones it detected (via their config directories), lists the exact files each would write, and wires only the ones you select. Claude Code is pre-selected; nothing else is.

Re-running only updates Trail-code’s own section (or replaces the owned file) and never touches the rest of your content.

Wire specific agents without a prompt

trail init --agents cursor kiro

To list the known agent ids:

trail init --list-agents

Other options:

• trail init --yes wires every detected agent.
• trail init --all-agents wires every known agent, detected or not.
• trail init --dry-run prints the agent wiring init would write, then exits without writing.

Run init in CI or a script

With no TTY to prompt on (CI, a Dockerfile, a piped shell), init writes nothing and prints the command to run instead. Pass --agents <ids> or --yes to make a scripted run explicit.

Keep writes inside the repo

Some agents also get user-level files, so the wiring follows you into worktrees and folders the repo’s files don’t reach. These apply to every repo you open with that agent. The picker labels them machine-wide, and --dry-run lists them in their own section. To skip them all while still wiring the repo’s own files:

trail init --no-global

Tip

For the full list of flags, the files written per agent, and the writes outside the repo, see the Agent wiring reference.
