description: Claude Code, omp, and the shared agent skill library that both read from.

  label: Overview
---

The repo manages configuration for two coding agents and a skill library they share. Neither agent binary is installed by chezmoi: `.chezmoidata/packages.yaml` lists no agent CLIs, so install Claude Code and omp yourself. topgrade runs `omp update` as a custom command.

**[Claude Code](/ai/claude-code)**

Settings, hooks, plugins, slash commands, and skill links under `~/.claude`.

**[omp](/ai/omp)**

Config, keybindings, MCP servers, theme, commands, and scheduled research loops under `~/.omp`.

**[Skills](/ai/skills)**

The `~/.agents/skills` library, its lock file, and the symlinks that expose it to Claude Code.

None of these files are role-gated: `.chezmoiignore.tmpl` applies them on every machine role (desktop, laptop, mac, server).

## Shell entry points

- `ai` (fish function) opens a `gum choose` picker over `claude`, `opencode`, `codex`, `hermes`, and `fractal`. Picking `claude` runs `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions`; the others run the binary of the same name. See [fish](/shell/fish).
- <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>A</kbd> launches `omp` from the fish and zsh prompts.
- `launch_omp_livediff_overlay` and `lc-elir` are omp helpers in `~/.local/bin`; see [omp](/ai/omp#shell-integration) and [scripts](/shell/scripts).
