A phonebook for AI agents. This repository exists so that Codex, Claude, Cursor, and any other LLM-based tool can orient themselves quickly in Jacob Mathison's development environment — without having to ask, guess, or explore blindly.

What Is This?

When an AI agent starts working in this codebase, it often needs to answer basic questions:

Where is the git server?
What AWS account am I working in, and what's deployed?
How do I authenticate?
What other machines and services exist on the network?
What projects are active?

This repo answers all of those questions. Think of it as a rolodex — structured reference docs, one per surface, that any LLM can read and immediately act on.

Files

File	What it covers
`llm.txt`	Plain-text overview of this repo and the environment
`manifest.json`	Machine-readable index: repos, CI, machines, conventions
`gitea.llm.md`	Local Gitea instance — clone URLs, PAT auth, API examples
`aws-cli.llm.md`	AWS account — profiles, S3, Amplify, CloudFront, Lambda

Quick Start for an AI Agent

1. Check your network access

curl -s http://100.79.253.19:3000/api/v1/version   # Gitea — expect {"version":"1.26.2"}
aws sts get-caller-identity                         # AWS — expect account 567637986724

2. Clone something

# Any repo on the local Gitea (Tailscale required):
git clone http://100.79.253.19:3000/jacob-mathison/<repo>.git

# This repo itself:
git clone http://100.79.253.19:3000/jacob-mathison/llm-tools.git

3. Read the guide for whatever surface you need

Working with source control → gitea.llm.md Working with AWS → aws-cli.llm.md

Keeping This Up to Date

When you (a human or an AI agent) add a new service, machine, or repo, update the relevant file and push. The manifest.json especially should reflect the live state of the Gitea repo list.

cd /Volumes/Hagia/workspaces/workspace_Father/llm-tools
# edit the file(s)
git add .
git commit -m "docs: update <file> with <change>"
git push
