FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Space-Agents setup in a new project?▼

To automate Space-Agents setup, run the /install command. This scaffolds the required .space-agents directory structure, initializes Beads for issue tracking, and creates the CAPCOM log for your project.

What directories and files are created during Space-Agents initialization?▼

Space-Agents initialization creates a .space-agents directory containing comms, exploration, and mission folders. It also generates a comms/capcom.md placeholder file and invokes the Beads setup process for tracking.

What is the CAPCOM log used for in project automation?▼

The CAPCOM log, created as comms/capcom.md, records decisions and tracks progress within your project. It provides a ready-to-use placeholder for logging Space-Agents mission data and development context.

Do I need to manually configure Beads before integrating Space-Agents?▼

No, you do not need to manually configure Beads. The Space-Agents installation process automatically invokes Beads setup to handle issue tracking and context persistence during initialization.

Can I use this automated setup for existing projects or only new ones?▼

You can use this setup for both new and existing projects. It applies whenever you are integrating Space-Agents, ensuring a consistent starting state by scaffolding the required directory structure and automating configuration.

What is the best way to scaffold an exploration and mission folder structure?▼

The best way to scaffold exploration and mission folders is running the /install command. It creates the .space-agents directory with ideas and planned subfolders, ensuring a consistent structure for project automation.
