05 / START HERE

It starts
by reading.

You don't throw away your current project. It reads, drafts a record, waits for a human to review — and only then connects to the workspace.

0.1.4 / DISTRIBUTION STATUS

Released.

0.1.4 ships for Windows x64, Linux x64 and npm. macOS and ARM are not shipped: they build, but we have not run them.

PRICING / FREE

Free.
The whole thing.

There is no trial and no paid tier. One edition, with the gate and everything behind it, free. No registration, no expiry, commercial use is fine.

Why it is free is a story we tell in the articles. Contact: hello@accordrail.dev

NOTHING TO UNLOCK

THE SHORTEST ROUTE

Read. Decide.
Connect.

The basic steps once distribution opens. An auto-generated draft is never treated as approved.

  1. 01INSTALL

    Put the tool in place.

    npm i -D accordrail
  2. 02READ

    Read the current shape.

    npx accordrail init .
  3. 03REVIEW

    A human reviews the record.

    $EDITOR .accordrail/spec.toml
  4. 04CONNECT

    Connect the workspace.

    npx accordrail connect .

npm 0.1.4 and later is the full edition — the gate and everything behind it.

WHAT HAPPENS FIRST

Day one
breaks nothing.

SCAN

Read only

Languages, entry points, dependency directions, existing modules. No code is changed.

DRAFT

Draft only

A candidate record is drafted. It is never auto-approved; a human reviews the reasons and boundaries.

BASELINE

Now is the baseline

The known shape is frozen, and only deviations added after connecting are judged.

A QUIET START

When it's ready,
every line checks.
