Component selection
Component selection
Section titled “Component selection”The core pack labels components as required, recommended, or optional. Your final selection is stored as explicit component IDs.
Recommended
Section titled “Recommended”--components recommendedInstalls every required and currently recommended component. This is the best starting point for most users.
--components allInstalls every compatible component in the current pack version.
“All” is a one-time expansion, not a subscription. A new optional component published later is not silently installed.
Explicit component IDs
Section titled “Explicit component IDs”For a small tailored setup:
--components ap-debug,ap-code-reviewer,ap-frontend-designRequired components are added automatically even if you do not list them.
Custom interactive selection
Section titled “Custom interactive selection”Choose custom during interactive agents-pack init. The menu starts with the Recommended set selected. Enter a component ID or category to toggle it, then enter done.
Required components stay selected. The menu shows each component’s category, selection level, and short description.
What selection means after init
Section titled “What selection means after init”- Your component IDs are stored explicitly.
- If a component later changes from optional to recommended, it is not automatically added to an existing installation.
- A newly required component may be added during an update. Required status is reserved for core management behavior.
- After you update the pack, new optional or recommended components become available but are not installed silently. Use
installto add them. - Required components cannot be removed.
