CLI/TUI app to easily detect, manage, install, and update AI Agent CLI tools
Is this actually an AI agent?
A comprehensive CLI/TUI/Library application for detecting, managing, installing, and updating AI development CLI agents across macOS, Linux, and Windows.
Catalog: 309 agents and counting. See the full list in .
agentmgr agent list works on a fresh go install before the first remote refresh-v to agent install / agent update to stream live subprocess output (brew / npm / pip / native) instead of a silent spinnerNO_COLOR, TERM=dumb, and non-TTY pipes)cfg.Logging drives log/slog level / format / file destination across both binariesPick whichever method fits your setup. After installing, verify with agentmgr doctor.
brew install kevinelliott/tap/agentmanager
Requires Go 1.25+. Installs the latest tagged release into $(go env GOPATH)/bin:
go install github.com/kevinelliott/agentmanager/cmd/agentmgr@latest
Requires Go 1.25+ and make:
# Clone the repository (creates ./agentmanager)
git clone https://github.com/kevinelliott/agentmanager.git
cd agentmanager
# Build both binaries into ./bin
make build
# Install to PATH
make install
agentmgr doctor # Check system health and configuration
agentmgr catalog list # Confirm the embedded catalog loads
Offline-first: the catalog is embedded into the binary, so
agentmgr catalog listandagentmgr agent listwork immediately on a fresh install — no network required until you runagentmgr catalog refresh.
# List all detected agents (shows installed version and latest available)
agentmgr agent list
# Install a new agent
agentmgr agent install claude-code
# Update all agents
agentmgr agent update --all
# Stream subprocess output during install/update (brew, npm, pip, native)
agentmgr agent update -v aider
# Launch the interactive TUI
agentmgr tui
# Disable colored output
agentmgr --no-color agent list
Catalog listings show tools supported on the selected platform; this example uses Linux.

in an interactive terminal with the required privileges.
Don't see your agent? Contributions are welcome — adding one is a single entry in
catalog.json.
AgentManager consists of two binaries:
agentmgr - Main CLI/TUI application for interactive useagentmgr-helper - Background systray helper with notificationsAgentManager can be used as a Go library:
import (
"github.com/kevinelliott/agentmanager/pkg/detector"
"github.com/kevinelliott/agentmanager/pkg/catalog"
"github.com/kevinelliott/agentmanager/pkg/installer"
)
// Create a detector
d := detector.New(platform.Current())
// Detect all installed agents
installations, err := d.DetectAll(ctx, agentDefs)
// Install an agent
mgr := installer.NewManager(platform.Current())
result, err := mgr.Install(ctx, agentDef, method, false)
Configuration is stored in:
~/Library/Preferences/AgentManager/config.yaml~/.config/agentmgr/config.yaml%APPDATA%\AgentManager\config.yamlExample configuration:

The benchmarks cover local inventory subprocesses, cold and warm SQLite caches, expired version metadata, and catalog rendering. CI saves benchmark results as an artifact. Compare results on the same machine and Go version.
The TUI displays installations before remote version checks finish. Its catalog shows a page of agents; use the up and down arrows to scroll.
