army-create

Scaffold a new clawup agent army project from a template.

Quick Start

npx army-create my-project

Or install globally:

npm install -g army-create
army-create my-project

What It Does

The CLI walks you through a few prompts and generates a fully configured clawup project with three specialized AI agents:

Agent	Name	Role
PM	Juno	Breaks down tickets, plans work, tracks progress, unblocks teams
Engineer	Titus	Leads engineering — coding, shipping, PR reviews
Tester	Scout	Quality assurance — bug hunting, verification, edge case testing

Each agent comes with its own identity (personality, skills, tools, workspace files) and runs OpenClaw with Claude Code in a Docker sandbox, connected via Tailscale mesh VPN.

Usage

army-create [project-name] [--template <name>]

Options:
  --template, -t   Template to use (default: army)
  --help, -h       Show help and available templates

The CLI prompts for:

• Project name — alphanumeric, hyphens, and underscores
• Cloud provider — Hetzner Cloud, AWS, or Local Docker
• Region — provider-specific (e.g., ash for Hetzner US, us-east-1 for AWS)
• Instance type — provider-specific with cost estimates
• Owner info — name, timezone (auto-detected), working hours

Next Steps

After scaffolding:

cd my-project
cp .env.example .env     # Fill in your API keys
clawup setup             # Validate secrets & provision infrastructure
clawup deploy            # Deploy the agent fleet

Required Secrets

The generated .env.example lists all required API keys:

• Infrastructure — Tailscale auth/API keys, cloud provider token (Hetzner or AWS)
• AI — Anthropic API key, Brave Search API key
• Per-agent — Slack bot/app tokens, Linear API keys, GitHub tokens (3 sets, one per agent)
