agentify — deploy the autonomous-repo feedback loop

Beta. This skill is under active development; the setup flow may change and a lower-friction "express" onboarding is being explored.

/agentify installs the framework into a target repo: feedback in → triaged GitHub issue → human-gated fix PR → filer notified. It bundles the framework as templates, so installing this plugin is grabbing the framework. The install lands as a PR the repo owner reviews and merges — the install itself goes through the same human gate the framework runs on.

Where the tooling lives. The scaffolder and templates ship in this plugin at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/agentify/ — agentify-render.sh, templates/, references/. Reference them with that variable (it resolves to the plugin's install path); run commands from there.

v0 scope. The full loop ships: triage/intake (email → triaged issue), comms (filer acks + the fix-gate approval email + verified-reply routing), fix + release (the coding agent's human-reviewed PR + the merge→shipped callback), and this deploy flow. The mechanical render is automated (agentify-render.sh, with a _selftest); the Q&A and the one-time identity/secret setup stay guided. An update mode (re-render preserving the adopter's config tweaks) is the natural follow-on — the render is already idempotent.

What gets scaffolded into the target repo

from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/agentify/templates/	to the target repo
autonomous-repo.config.yml.tmpl	autonomous-repo.config.yml (the only file the adopter owns)
runtime-skill/**	.claude/skills/autonomous-repo/**
scripts/ticket_card.sh	scripts/ticket_card.sh
workflows/*.yml.tmpl	.github/workflows/*.yml

Deploy procedure

1. Detect. Read the target repo: its OWNER/REPO, primary language, test command, and CI — used to fill the fix-lane verify_setup_script and sensible defaults.
2. Configure. Ask the adopter the config values and export them as the ANS_* env vars agentify-render.sh reads: ANS_PRODUCT_NAME, ANS_OWNER, ANS_REPO, ANS_MARKER, ANS_REVIEWER_LOGIN, ANS_BOT_LOGIN, ANS_SUPPORT_ADDRESS, ANS_FIX_GATE_MODE (hitl recommended), ANS_APPROVER_ADDRESS, ANS_VERIFY_SETUP_SCRIPT. (The bot login can be filled later from the checklist; secrets are never gathered here.)
3. Render. Run "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/agentify/agentify-render.sh" --to <target-repo-root>. It fills autonomous-repo.config.yml from the ANS_* answers (failing loudly on any unfilled placeholder) and scaffolds the runtime skill, the scripts, and the four workflows into their real paths (.claude/skills/autonomous-repo/, scripts/, .github/workflows/*.yml). Re-running updates the scaffolded code but PRESERVES an existing autonomous-repo.config.yml (your tuned always_hitl, the filled bot_login) — pass --force only to regenerate the config. Then tune the rendered config's always_hitl list for the product's sensitive surfaces, and sanity-check: scripts/*.sh _selftest all green and the config parses. Optional addons (${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/agentify/templates/addons/) — e.g. submit-feedback-mcp (a submit_feedback MCP tool that email-bridges into the support mailbox) — are opted in via ANS_ADDONS="<name> ..."; the render scaffolds each to tools/<name>/ and appends its setup to AGENTIFY-ADDON-SETUP.md. Addons are additive; the loop runs without them.
4. Auto-do the safe parts. Create the labels from labels.* via gh (feedback, agent-fix, wontfix, feedback-ops, the status:* set).
5. Hand off the rest (print, don't do — see references/setup-checklist.md): create the GitHub App (bot identity) and set github_app_login in config; create the e2a support@ agent + an agent-scoped API key; add the repo secrets (CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, E2A_API_KEY, AUTOREPO_APP_ID, AUTOREPO_APP_PRIVATE_KEY); enable Actions; set branch protection so the fix lane's PRs require review. Hand over the exact commands/links — never run the auth yourself.
6. Open the install as a PR. Branch, commit the scaffolded files, open a PR titled "agentify: install the autonomous-repo feedback loop" that summarizes what each file does and links the setup checklist. Do not merge.

After merge + setup

The lanes activate themselves: each no-ops loudly until its secrets exist, then starts on the next cron tick. Flip the AUTOREPO_LANES_PAUSED repo variable to pause everything. Run the loop interactively any time with the autonomous-repo skill ("drain the triage queue").
