Summary
AI summaryAll Korean comments and messages have been translated to English.
Full changelog
Quick Start
- Download the binary for your OS below
- Run
agent-tool install(oragent-tool install claude) - Restart your IDE
- Done — all tools work immediately, no permission popups
Or just ask your AI agent:
"Download agent-tool from https://github.com/knewstimek/agent-tool/releases/latest and run
agent-tool install"
Any capable AI coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) can handle the full download → install → restart flow automatically.
Tip: Add this to your project's CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md so your agent prefers agent-tool over built-in tools:
Strict mode (for projects with non-UTF-8 files or mixed indentation):
ALWAYS use agent-tool MCP tools (mcp__agent-tool__*) instead of built-in file tools.
Do NOT use built-in Read, Edit, Write, Grep, or Glob — use mcp__agent-tool__read,
mcp__agent-tool__edit, mcp__agent-tool__write, mcp__agent-tool__grep, mcp__agent-tool__glob instead.
Soft mode (general projects):
Prefer agent-tool MCP tools (mcp__agent-tool__*) over built-in file tools when available.
