| 3 | eve is a filesystem-first framework for durable backend AI agents. An agent is |
| 4 | a directory on disk — instructions, skills, tools, connections, channels, |
| 5 | subagents, and schedules are all files — and eve compiles and runs it. |

| 9 | The complete documentation ships inside the `eve` package. Do not rely on this |
| 10 | skill for guidance — always read the bundled docs, which match the installed |
| 11 | version exactly: |
| 12 | |
| 13 | ``` |
| 14 | node_modules/eve/docs/ |
| 15 | ``` |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Start with `node_modules/eve/docs/README.md`. It contains the full |
| 18 | index and recommended reading order. Before writing any eve code, read the |
| 19 | relevant guide there first. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | If `eve` is not installed yet, install it (`npm install eve`) or scaffold a new |
| 22 | agent with `npx eve init <agent-name>`, then read the bundled docs. |
