agentconf¶
Sync your AI coding agent configs across machines via a git-backed multi-profile system.
Status
v0.4.0 — early release. macOS + Linux only.
Why¶
AI coding agents store your settings, hooks, MCP servers, skills, subagents, slash
commands, plugins, and statusline scripts in per-user config directories — Claude
Code under ~/.claude/, Codex CLI under ~/.codex/, Gemini CLI under ~/.gemini/.
Set them up on one machine and the other machines lag behind. agentconf mirrors
those directories to a private git repo and keeps every machine in sync —
automatically, in the background, on every agent session start/stop.
Scope¶
| Agent | Config location | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | ~/.claude/ + tracked ~/.claude.json keys |
✅ Supported |
| OpenAI Codex CLI | ~/.codex/ |
🚧 Planned |
| Gemini CLI | ~/.gemini/ |
🚧 Planned |
The tool was formerly named claude-profile and currently implements the Claude
Code integration; Codex CLI and Gemini CLI support reuse the same engine — one
private git repo, named profiles, per-agent include/exclude rules, a hard-blocked
credentials denylist, and mtime-based conflict resolution.
At a glance¶
- 15 commands —
init,sync,status,diff,describe,use,list,adopt,merge,backups,restore,prune,config,install-skill,autosync - Auto-sync via hooks —
SessionStartpulls,Stoppushes, both non-blocking with timeouts and debouncing - Multiple profiles — keep
personal,work,experimentalside-by-side; switch withagentconf use <name> - Conflict-safe — mtime-based winner with the loser preserved at
profiles/<active>/.conflicts/<path>.<host>.<ts> - Backups before every switch — hardlinked snapshots in
~/.agentconf/backups/<profile>/<ts>/, auto-pruned to 10 by default - Credentials hard-blocked — built-in denylist no user config can override
Install¶
Binary command is agentconf (the scope is just the package name).
