# AI Teammate CLI
Provide open-source AI teammates as a command-line tool a team can install and use.

## When to use
- You want AI agents available to developers right in their terminal.
- You want them open source and self-hostable.

## Procedure
1. Design the CLI surface: invoke a teammate, give it a task, see it work.
2. Implement with an OpenAI-compatible backend so it's model-agnostic.
3. Make it installable with one command (e.g. curl) and self-hostable.
4. Document usage and keep the code open source.
5. Add a way to observe what the teammate did.

## Pitfalls
- A CLI is only adopted if it's fast to install and obvious to use.
- Open source means docs and a clean install path matter.

## Verification
- A developer can install, invoke a teammate, and see it complete a task.
