Why Agent Layer?
Eliminate duplicate configuration work and deliver faster with consistent agent setup.
Single Source of Truth
Edit .agent-layer/ once. Skills align with the agentskills.io specification, and every client gets its native config.
Sync on Run
Configs regenerate every launch. No manual steps, no drift.
Consistent Approvals
Define safety rules once. Every agent respects the same boundaries.
MCP Everywhere
Configure MCP servers in one place. They appear in every client.
Version Pinning
Lock your team to specific versions. Everyone stays aligned.
Local & Fast
No telemetry. Network is used only for update checks, version downloads (pinning), and MCP servers you enable. See Security for details.
