Manage Claude Code agents in your local projects with ease

ccagents is a Rust CLI tool that helps you manage Claude Code agents by creating symlinks, handling configuration, and downloading agents from GitHub. It ensures your agents are portable across different environments and team members.

Features

  • 🔗 Symlink-based management - Enable/disable agents without copying files
  • 📦 Portable configuration - Uses relative paths in .agents.json
  • 🌐 GitHub integration - Download individual agent files directly from GitHub
  • 🔍 Smart diagnostics - Detect and fix broken symlinks, missing sources, and orphaned agents
  • 🎨 Beautiful CLI - Colored output with clear status indicators
  • ⚡ Fast & lightweight - Written in Rust for easy portability

Installation

From source (requires Rust)

Pre-built binaries

Download the latest release for your platform from the releases page.

Quick Start

# Add an agent from a local file
ccagents add ./my-agent.md

# Add an agent from GitHub (single file only)
ccagents add https://github.com/user/repo/blob/main/agents/backend.md

# List all agents
ccagents list

# Enable/disable agents
ccagents enable my-agent.md
ccagents disable my-agent.md

# Sync agents (create/remove symlinks based on config)
ccagents sync

# Clean up orphaned agents
ccagents clean

# Run diagnostics
ccagents doctor

Usage

Adding Agents

Add agents from local files or GitHub:

# Local file
ccagents add ~/Documents/my-agent.md

# GitHub file (must be a direct file link)
ccagents add https://github.com/user/repo/blob/main/agent.md

Files are copied to .ccagents/ directory and symlinked to .claude/agents/. You can commit .ccagents to Git and make it portable between team mates.

Managing Agents

# List all agents with their status
ccagents list

# Output:
# Enabled agents:
#   ● backend-developer.md - ✓ linked
#   ● code-reviewer.md - ⚠ source missing
# 
# Disabled agents:
#   ○ test-agent.md

# Enable an agent
ccagents enable backend-developer.md

# Disable an agent
ccagents disable code-reviewer.md

Syncing Configuration

Sync creates/removes symlinks based on your .agents.json:

# Basic sync
ccagents sync

# Sync and remove orphaned entries
ccagents sync --prune

Importing Unmanaged Agents

If you've added agents directly to .claude/agents/, import them:

# Import a specific agent
ccagents import my-agent.md

# Import all unmanaged agents
ccagents import --all

Diagnostics & Cleanup

# Check for issues
ccagents doctor

# Fix issues automatically
ccagents doctor --fix

# Remove orphaned agents from config
ccagents clean

# Force cleanup without confirmation
ccagents clean --force

Configuration

The .agents.json file stores your agent configuration:

{
  "agents": [
    {
      "name": "backend-developer.md",
      "source": {
        "type": "Local",
        "value": ".ccagents/backend-developer.md"
      },
      "enabled": true
    },
    {
      "name": "code-reviewer.md",
      "source": {
        "type": "GitHub",
        "value": "https://github.com/user/repo/blob/main/agent.md"
      },
      "enabled": false
    }
  ]
}

Directory Structure

your-project/
├── .agents.json          # Agent configuration
├── .ccagents/           # Agent storage (managed)
│   ├── backend.md

        ├── backend.md -> ../../.ccagents/backend.md
        └── frontend.md -> ../../.ccagents/frontend.md

Status Indicators

  • ✓ linked - Agent is working correctly
  • ⚠ source missing - Source file has been deleted
  • ⚠ not linked - Symlink is missing
  • ⚠ link broken - Symlink points to non-existent file
  • ● enabled - Agent is enabled
  • ○ disabled - Agent is disabled
