Summary

AI summary

All Korean comments and messages have been translated to English.

Full changelog

Quick Start

  1. Download the binary for your OS below
  2. Run agent-tool install (or agent-tool install claude)
  3. Restart your IDE
  4. 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.

What's New
