apm-cli

Microsoft Agent Package Manager for remote agent packages—install, sync, audit, harness deploy. NOT observability APM. Repo bundle uses wagents/Skills CLI.

Quick Start

Install:

pip install apm-cli

Use: apm --help

Standalone CLI tool for supported agent harnesses (see Harness Coverage). Not an agentskills.io slash skill.

Curated external (hand-maintained)

Composed compose-external-wave-1 using authoring SSOT (docs/src/authoring/skills/apm-cli.mdx) + research. Do not run wagents docs generate on this file (HAND-MAINTAINED sentinel). Run /review source before using in production or promoting.

Harness Coverage

Targets verified harnesses: claude-code, codex, cursor, gemini-cli, github-copilot, opencode.

Portable multi-harness install command:

pip install apm-cli

Trust / Audit

Trust tier: Curated (curated-trust-gated)

Curated status: install-now-after-trust-gate

Risk notes: apm install mutates harness directories; run apm audit and review apm.lock.yaml. Never route repo skills/ through APM.

Entry maintained in authoring SSOT docs/src/authoring/skills/apm-cli.mdx and docs/public/generated-registries/skills-catalog-index.json; research context is advisory.

Microsoft **Agent Package Manager** (APM)—not Azure Monitor / application performance monitoring.

## Scope

- **APM**: install remote skills, agents, instructions, hooks, and MCP from third-party `apm.yml` packages.
- **This repo bundle**: `wagents`, Skills CLI, or `apm install wyattowalsh/agents` for agents/instructions/hooks materialized from repo SSOT.
- **MCP**: owned by `config/mcp-registry.json` and MCPHub; not locked through APM in this repository.

## Maintainer commands

```bash
pip install apm-cli          # or: pipx install apm-cli
uv run wagents apm materialize
uv run wagents apm doctor
apm audit --ci --no-drift
apm install --only apm       # deploy primitives without resolving external MCP registry
```

## Consumer install

```bash
apm install wyattowalsh/agents
apm update
```
