Code Relay is a structured protocol for AI coding agents that enables self-bootstrapping, cross-session memory, multi-repo awareness, and safe scoped execution. It solves four core issues: cross-session amnesia via HANDOFF/CHECKPOINT mechanisms, limited context window through proactive state saving, lack of standardized workflow with defined processes like boot sequences and task management, and multi-repo blindness via a workspace structure that provides a global view of all repositories. The protocol operates in two modes: GitHub (using Issues and Project Board for state management) and Local (using files like STATUS.yml and HANDOFF.md). Key features include agent-led boot sequences, worktree isolation for task separation, sub-agent delegation to prevent context window overflow, and SCOPE-based write access control. The repository consists of Markdown and YAML templates that define workflows, configuration, and task structures, designed to be copied into a project and customized.
Gita is a CLI tool that manages multiple git repositories from a single command. It allows users to register repositories, organize them into groups, and perform batch git operations such as fetch, pull, status, and custom commands across all or selected repos. The tool also displays a side-by-side summary of repository states including branch, commit message, time, and status symbols for staged/unstaged/untracked changes and local-remote branch relationships. The architecture is a monolithic Python application with a clear separation of concerns: `__main__.py` defines the CLI interface via argparse and delegates to action functions; `utils.py` provides file I/O, configuration parsing, and async execution utilities; `info.py` contains all logic for gathering and formatting repo status information; `common.py` handles config file paths; and `io.py` parses clone configuration files. The tool uses subprocess and asyncio to run git commands concurrently for multiple repos, falling back to synchronous execution for interactive commands like difftool or when only one repo is targeted. Gita stores repository metadata in CSV files under `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gita/` and supports extensive customization via additional config files for colors, symbols, displayed info columns, and custom commands defined in JSON. The codebase is well-tested with pytest and exercised on CI across multiple Python versions and operating systems. While the core functionality is tightly integrated with its own config schema, several internal patterns (async subprocess execution, git status extraction via diff --quiet) are cleanly abstracted and could be repurposed in other git tooling with minor adaptation.
