CLI-first operational workflows and evidence for AI agents.
Agentplane helps you route local agent work through tasks, plans, verification, context, recipes, and Git-visible evidence.
install -> init -> quickstart -> task -> verify -> acr
Operationalize AI-assisted engineering with reproducible local workflow records.
npm i -g agentplane
agentplane init
agentplane quickstart
agentplane demoRequirements: Node.js 24+, Git, and a local terminal.
Agentplane is not another agent framework. It is the operational layer around AI agents: workflows, orchestration, local context, recipes, verification, task artifacts, and ACR evidence.
Use Agentplane when you want agent work to be debuggable, reproducible, observable, and safe to operate beyond a single chat session.
agentplane init and task lifecycle commands create inspectable operational artifacts:
AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md Repository policy gateway
.agentplane/WORKFLOW.md Workflow/config contract
.agentplane/agents/ Installed agent profiles
.agentplane/tasks/<task-id>/README.md Task intent, plan, verification, rollback, findings
.agentplane/tasks/<task-id>/acr.json Agent Change Record
.agentplane/tasks/<task-id>/pr/ branch_pr review artifacts when that mode is active
The default quickstart runs locally and writes local project artifacts. It does not require account creation. If you enable integrations that publish feedback or artifacts, the integration docs explain the destination and opt-in setting.
An Agent Change Record is a machine-readable record of AI-assisted engineering work. It captures task intent, workflow state, changed files, verification evidence, and review status.
agentplane acr generate <task-id> --work-commit HEAD --write
agentplane acr validate <task-id> --mode local
agentplane acr check <task-id> --mode ci
agentplane acr explain <task-id>Schema: schemas/acr-v0.1.schema.json.
Local context is the operational knowledge an agent needs for a specific repository or workflow: conventions, constraints, current state, reusable notes, tool instructions, and run history.
context/raw/** source material
context/wiki/** maintained markdown wiki
context/facts/**/*.jsonl sourced facts
context/graph/**/*.jsonl entities and relationships
.agentplane/context/derived disposable generated projection
Initialize it with:
agentplane context init
agentplane context learn changes
agentplane context learn tasks --tag release --limit 20 --dry-run
agentplane context search "release checklist"
agentplane context checkThe model matches the LLM Wiki pattern: raw sources stay immutable, the wiki accumulates synthesis, and schema/policy files tell agents how to maintain it. Agentplane adds task lifecycle, provenance, proposal-before-promotion, and verification gates so context updates remain reviewable.
Read Local context.
agentplane task begin "Inspect Agentplane artifacts" --tag docs --verify "agentplane task verify-show <task-id>"

- a prompt playground;
- a low-code chatbot builder;
- a replacement for every agent framework;
- a black-box runtime that hides operational state.
Agentplane is the local operational layer around agent workflows: tasks, plans, context, recipes, checks, ACRs, and artifacts.
Recipes are reusable workflow overlays. Start with the task -> plan -> verify -> ACR flow first; add recipes when you want a repeatable TDD, security review, or documentation update loop.
- Solo developers who want future-you to know why an agent changed 19 files.
- OSS maintainers who require agent-generated PRs to include task intent, plan, checks, and ACR.
- Engineering teams that make agent work follow a shared lifecycle before review.
- Platform and security teams that need local, inspectable, policy-aware, CI-gateable AI work.
DCO sign-off and multi-author commits are first-class. Agentplane-managed commits preserve DCO identity fallbacks so agent and human co-authoring stays compliant.
