Getting started

Four steps to Waykit on a repo. macOS and Linux; needs git and Node 22+. No API key.

  1. Install Waykit (~2 min) — Links ~/.agents and puts wk on your PATH via ~/.local/bin (kit remains an alias).
  2. Bootstrap this checkout (~2 min)wk init . --mcp default --hook writes the thin handshake, IDE pointers, and a default MCP profile. Already in this repo? ./install.sh is enough.
  3. Open the lifecycle (~3 min) — Feature work routes grill → spec → TDD + XFN → audit → release. Read the feature lifecycle.
  4. Optional: prove a tool call (~3 min)wk eval run --suite evals/edd/demo.yaml --model scripted, then wk eval ci --suite evals/edd/demo.yaml --threshold-routing 95 --out out/reports.

Install Waykit

If wk is missing after install, add ~/.local/bin to PATH.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mzworthington/waykit/main/install.sh | sh
wk init . --mcp default --hook

Run an eval locally (optional)

wk eval run --suite evals/edd/demo.yaml --model scripted
wk eval ci --suite evals/edd/demo.yaml --threshold-routing 95 --out out/reports
wk eval report --format md --out out/reports

The scripted driver works offline. A provider key is only for optional live-model evals.
