About Bridle
Bridle is an open-source TUI and CLI configuration manager for AI coding harnesses. It provides a unified interface to manage profiles, install skills and agents, and switch configurations across Claude Code, OpenCode, Goose, and Amp — all from a single tool. Written in Rust, it installs via Homebrew or Cargo and runs entirely locally.
Bridle solves the problem of each AI coding assistant storing configs in different formats and locations. A skill written for Claude Code lives in a different directory with a different schema than the same skill on OpenCode or Goose. Bridle auto-translates paths, naming conventions, and configuration schemas so you can install once and deploy everywhere.
- Profile Management - Create, switch, compare, and edit saved configuration profiles per harness, letting you maintain separate setups for work, personal, or minimal use.
- Cross-Harness Package Manager - Install skills, agents, commands, and MCP servers from any GitHub repository and auto-translate them for each target harness.
- Interactive TUI - Launch a terminal UI dashboard to view and manage configurations visually instead of editing config files by hand.
- Status Overview - See active profiles across all detected harnesses at a glance with
bridle status. - Profile Diffing - Compare two profiles side by side to understand configuration differences before switching.
- Config Auto-Translation - Automatically handles path and schema differences between harnesses so installed components work everywhere.
- Multiple Output Formats - Get human-readable text output for interactive use or JSON for scripting and piping.
- Supported Harnesses - Full support for Claude Code, OpenCode, and Goose, with experimental support for Amp.
