Get started¶
rup-flow is a skill: a folder of instructions and a small command line that your AI coding agent loads on demand. You talk to the agent; the agent follows the skill and runs the CLI.
What you need: Node.js 18 or newer, a shell and an AI coding agent. Docker is optional and only draws the diagrams.
