Initializer Agent

First-session agent that sets up the foundation for autonomous coding projects.

Quick Start

Initialize a Project

from scripts.initializer import InitializerAgent

agent = InitializerAgent(project_dir)
result = await agent.initialize_project(
    spec="Build a task management app with user auth",
    tech_stack=["nextjs", "typescript", "prisma"]
)

Generate Feature List

from scripts.feature_generator import generate_features

features = await generate_features(
    spec="E-commerce platform with cart and checkout",
    count=100  # Generate 100 features
)
