Bridle Skill

Unified configuration manager for AI coding assistants. Manage profiles, install skills/agents/commands, and switch configurations across Claude Code, OpenCode, Goose, and Amp.

Installation

bash
# Homebrew (macOS/Linux)
brew install neiii/bridle/bridle

# Cargo (Rust)
cargo install bridle

# From source
git clone https://github.com/neiii/bridle && cd bridle && cargo install --path .

Core Concepts

  • Harnesses: AI coding assistants (claude, opencode, goose, amp)
  • Profiles: Saved configurations per harness (e.g., work, personal, minimal)

Quick Commands

bash
# Launch interactive TUI
bridle

# Show active profiles across all harnesses
bridle status

# Initialize bridle config and default profiles
bridle init

Profile Management

bash
# List all profiles for a harness
bridle profile list <harness>

# Show profile details (model, MCPs, plugins)
bridle profile show <harness> <name>

# Create empty profile
bridle profile create <harness> <name>

# Create profile from current config
bridle profile create <harness> <name> --from-current

# Switch/activate a profile
bridle profile switch <harness> <name>

# Open profile in editor
bridle profile edit <harness> <name>

# Compare profiles
bridle profile diff <harness> <name> [other]

# Delete a profile
bridle profile delete <harness> <name>

Installing Components

Bridle can install skills, agents, commands, and MCPs from GitHub repos and auto-translates paths/configs for each harness.

bash
# Install from GitHub (owner/repo or full URL)
bridle install owner/repo

# Overwrite existing installations
bridle install owner/repo --force

# Interactively remove components [experimental]
bridle uninstall <harness> <profile>

Configuration

Config location: ~/.config/bridle/config.toml

bash
# Get a config value
bridle config get <key>

# Set a config value
bridle config set <key> <value>

Config keys: profile_marker, editor, tui.view, default_harness

Output Formats

All commands support -o, --output :

  • text (default) — Human-readable
  • json — Machine-readable
  • auto — Text for TTY, JSON for pipes

Common Workflows

Create a work profile from current config

bash
bridle profile create claude work --from-current

Create profile from existing profile (duplicate & modify)

bash
# 1. Switch to the source profile
bridle profile switch opencode default

# 2. Create new profile from current (now the source profile)
bridle profile create opencode minimal --from-current

# 3. Edit the new profile to remove/modify as needed
bridle profile edit opencode minimal

Switch between profiles

bash
bridle profile switch claude personal
bridle profile switch opencode minimal

Check status across all harnesses

bash
bridle status

Installation

Terminal bash

openclaw install bridle
