• Clean Management: Handles existing files and provides clean installation

The agents are installed as symlinks from ~/.claude/bsv-claude-agents/agents/ to ~/.claude/agents/, allowing for easy updates and management.

Requirements

• Node.js: Version 14 or higher
• Git: Required for cloning the agents repository
• Claude Code: The agents are designed for use with Claude Code

Windows Users

The package is fully compatible with Windows! The CLI automatically detects your operating system and uses the appropriate linking method:

• Windows: Uses hard links (no administrator privileges required)
• macOS/Linux: Uses symbolic links (standard approach)

If you encounter permission issues on Windows, you can:

• Enable Developer Mode in Windows Settings → Update & Security → For developers
• Or run the command as administrator (not recommended for regular use)

Update Agents

To update your BSV agents to the latest version, simply run the installation command again:

npx @bsv/bsv-claude-agents

This will pull the latest changes and update your local agent files.

Development

For local development and testing:

git clone https://github.com/bsv-blockchain/bsv-claude-agents.git
cd bsv-claude-agents
node bin/cli.js --local

Troubleshooting

Windows Issues

If you encounter linking errors on Windows:

• Try Developer Mode: Enable Developer Mode in Windows Settings
• Check File System: Ensure you're using NTFS (required for hard links)
• Fallback Mode: The CLI automatically falls back to file copying if linking fails

General Issues

• Git not found: Ensure Git is installed and available in your PATH
• Permission errors: Check that you have write access to ~/.claude/ directory
• Node.js version: Verify you're using Node.js 14 or higher
