Native CLI for agent identity

Compose identity for real agents.

Imprint is a native CLI for composing durable identity files like AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and SOUL.md for real agent runtimes.

The web app is a visual layer on top of the same composition engine. Pick traits, preview the output, and export a runtime-ready identity without hand-writing long instruction files from scratch.

Native CLI
npx imprint build

Compose once in the CLI, then export for the runtime you actually use.

CLI EngineeringTest FirstVerification FirstStructured Output
Outputs

AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, SOUL.md, and other runtime-ready identity files.

Generated output
AGENTS.md

Identity, conventions, toolkit, and output format stay aligned.

Conflict guidance

Incompatible traits are flagged before export instead of turning into prompt drift.

Live preview

The identity updates as you type, so the builder behaves like a tool instead of a form dump.

How it works

A short path from CLI-first composition to runtime-ready agent files.

01

Set the brief

Name the agent, define the mission, and note the environment it will run in.

02

Compose the identity

Pick traits dimension by dimension and resolve conflicts before they leak into the output.

03

Export the file

Generate the format your stack expects without rewriting the identity by hand.

Why CLI-native

CLI-native identity tooling, with a visual layer on top.

The CLI is the real product. The web app exists to make the same composition engine easier to explore, demo, and export without changing the underlying model.

Native CLI
The core product. Compose and export where agents actually run.
Visual builder
A cleaner way to explore the same composition engine in the browser.
Export
Platform-specific output from a single composed identity.

Each layer stays readable instead of turning into one long prompt string.
Methodology
Conflicts and tradeoffs show up while you compose, not after export.
Communication
Each layer stays readable instead of turning into one long prompt string.

Skill modules: the execution plane.

Identity shapes judgment. Skills carry procedural know-how. Soon you will be able to attach reusable skill modules — deploy flows, runbooks, review checklists — and let identity govern how they run.
