## About
AdaL is your automation-first agent harness — every coding agent can build, but only AdaL does GTM directly from your codebase. It runs in your terminal, was created by SylphAI and named after Ada Lovelace, the world's first programmer, and works with Claude, GPT, Gemini, GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek, MiniMax, and local models.
AdaL CLI is a terminal-native harness that orchestrates AI agents, models, and tools into autonomous, end-to-end workflows — it carries each issue from direction to tested PR, so more gets done with less of your time.
This repository is the community home for AdaL CLI — report issues, share what you build, and contribute skills.
### Hackathon presentation
Open the @skills: system card for a presentation-ready overview of reusable agent knowledge, skill delivery, and the two main workflows.
Presenter notes and local preview instructions are in hackathon/README.md.
### Install AdaL CLI
Native install is recommended: it manages AdaL's runtime and updates consistently across platforms.
macOS, Linux, WSL:
bash
curl -fsSL https://adal.sylph.ai/install.sh | bash
Windows PowerShell:
powershell
irm https://adal.sylph.ai/install/windows | iex
Windows CMD:
bat
powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "irm https://adal.sylph.ai/install/windows | iex"
> If irm is not recognized, you are in CMD rather than PowerShell — use the Windows CMD command above, or open PowerShell.
Then go to your working directory and run:
bash
adal
First run opens the browser for authentication. See the Quickstart for details.
## The CLI
Start where developers move fastest. AdaL CLI brings agentic work into the terminal — with model switching, reviewable tool use, session memory, and IDE handoff.
Terminal-native — command discovery, tool confirmations, streaming work, and clean recovery paths.
Review-first — tool calls, file edits, diffs, and plans stay visible, so you understand the work before signing off.
Model freedom — switch between Claude, Gemini, GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek, MiniMax and more from a fast command palette.
CLI → IDE handoff — open the same session in AdaL's agentic IDE when a task needs files, terminal, and canvas together.
| Command | What it does |
| /model | Choose the best model for the job |
| /ide | Open the current session in the agentic IDE |
| /resume | Return to previous work with context intact |
| /stats | Inspect session health, model, and usage |
