agents that arewicked smart

Your agent already plans, swarms, and ships. What it can't do alone — prove the result, remember the decision, know when it's actually done. The garden closes that gap.

01 / the manifesto

Most dev tools ask you to trust them. Ours hand you the receipts.

No cloud.

Your machine is the backend. The few local servers auto-start and never phone home — nothing to deploy, no cloud bill.

No black box.

Plain markdown and full-text search you can open, diff, grep, and audit.

No lock-in.

MIT, cross-CLI, composable. Every tool stands alone, degrades gracefully — the gate even runs with nothing installed.

02 / in practice

One prompt. Seven tools firing.

Scroll through a real refactor session — every garden tool doing its part, triggered by a single prompt. Click any log line to jump to that tool.

stop 01 / 08 — the garden gate

every garden starts at the gate

wicked-garden reads the shape of each task — a typo fix, a schema migration, a 2am incident — and applies exactly that much rigor, gating each phase on re-derived evidence. Install it once; it curates everything that follows.

  • 9 work-shape archetypes route the right amount of rigor
  • Evidence-gated phases fail closed — never a vacuous green
  • The gate compiles into any repo and runs with nothing installed

03 / the potting bench

three commands. your garden, planted.

wicked-garden curates the rest. The third command runs inside Claude Code — it asks which optional layers you want and installs your picks at their latest versions.
