Documentation is a starting point, not proof of fit in your setup.

THE SHORT VERSION

People who value a small core and are comfortable configuring extensions.

Minimal defaults are intentional. Extra workflow features may require extensions and technical setup.

Node.js, a terminal, project access, and a supported model provider.

EVERYDAY USEPrompt, inspect diffs and supervise commands in a terminal.

YOUR OWN CHECK, NOT OUR TEST RESULTS

A generic checklist to run yourself. Use a small, reversible trial and non-sensitive sample data.

Define one task and write down what a useful result would look like.
Confirm the selected edition, total cost, setup owner, and required connections in the official documentation.
Run the same task in your current setup and the candidate. Record missing steps, manual work, and errors.
Check how you would export or remove your trial data and return to your current setup.
Keep, test further, or stop. Do not migrate until your must-have requirements are confirmed.

Code and context may be sent to the configured model provider.
