The Setup Process

Generate the right config so AI agents start in their isolated worktrees / environments with the same setup as the main repo: dependencies installed, env files in place, tool configs copied over.

1. Unless the context already provides an answer, explicitly ask the user which tool the setup is for: Cursor, Codex, or Conductor.

2. Map out the project (web, native, Rust, Swift, etc.) and make judgement calls on the right setup/install, run/actions, and teardown/archive commands.

Not all projects use bun. Some use make, cargo, bun tauri dev, swift build, npm, pnpm, pip, etc. Read the README, package.json scripts, top-level Makefile, or Cargo.toml to figure it out.

What each tool reads

• Cursor: Local parallel-agent worktrees in .cursor/worktrees.json.
• Codex: Setup script + actions in .codex/environments/environment.toml.
• Conductor: Workspace setup in conductor.json.

The shared pattern

Across all of them, the setup script usually does the same 3 things:
