GitAgent
Overview
Open git-native standard and framework for defining, versioning, and running portable AI agents from repository files.
GitAgent, also presented as GitAgentProtocol (GAP), is an open, git-native standard for defining AI agents as files inside a repository. It lets teams keep an agent’s identity, rules, memory, tools, and skills in version-controlled plain files so agents can be branched, reviewed, shared, and run in a framework-agnostic way. The official site describes GitAgent as working with Claude, OpenAI, CrewAI, Lyzr, and other agent ecosystems, making it useful for developers who want portable agent definitions rather than fragmented, platform-specific setups.
Product overview
Capabilities, pricing and fit
GitAgent is an MIT-licensed, git-native agent framework and runtime, not a hosted end-user agent. It stores an agent's model configuration, identity, rules, memory, tools, skills, and hooks as version-controlled repository files and exposes both a local CLI and a TypeScript SDK.
Information as of September 3, 2026
What it can do
- Repository-defined agents
Agent configuration, identity, behavioral rules, committed memory, tools, skills, and hooks live in a Git repository and can be versioned or forked.[1]
- CLI and SDK execution
The CLI can run against a local directory or clone and work on a remote repository, while the TypeScript SDK exposes programmatic query and streaming interfaces.[1]
- Extensible tools and MCP
GitAgent supports declarative tools, lifecycle hooks, reusable plugins, and local or remote MCP servers whose discovered tools are added to the agent runtime.[1], [2]
Where it fits best
- Developers who want agent behavior, memory, tools, and policy files to be reviewable, branchable, and portable with the same Git workflow as application code.[1]
Pricing and availability
The GitAgent code is MIT-licensed and available without a software subscription. Running it can still incur charges from the model providers or external tools the user configures.[1]
Platforms: Node.js CLI, TypeScript SDK, Optional browser voice UI[1]
Access: Local or self-hosted execution, Repository and CI workflows[1]
