# agentic-standard

CLI for the [Agentic Collaboration Standard (ACS)](https://acs.jackby03.com) — a unified open format for agent-ready projects.

## Install

```bash
pip install agentic-standard
```

## Usage

```bash
# Scaffold a new .agents/ folder
acs init

# Validate your project
acs validate

# List ACS files in your project
acs ls
```

## What is ACS?

ACS defines a unified `.agents/` folder so you write your project context, skills, and permissions once — and any ACS-compatible agent picks it up automatically. No more scattering context across `CLAUDE.md`, `.cursorrules`, `GEMINI.md`, and a dozen vendor-specific files.

```
