• Lerian-specific skills stay active — Brazilian regulatory compliance (finops-team), internal integrations, and domain-specific workflows remain in the marketplace because the team uses them
• The architecture is universal — Skills, agents, and the plugin system work with any codebase or team
• Archival is usage-driven — Skills are archived when they stop being used, not because they're "too specific"

When mandatory, agents load Ring standards via WebFetch and produce comparison tables with:

• Current Pattern vs Expected Pattern
• Severity classification (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
• File locations and migration recommendations

🖥️ Supported Platforms

Ring works across multiple AI development platforms:

| Platform | Format | Status | Features | | --------------- | ----------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------- | | Claude Code | Native | ✅ Source of truth | Skills, agents, hooks | | Factory AI | Transformed | ✅ Supported | Droids, skills | | Cursor | Transformed | ✅ Supported | Skills, agents | | Cline | Transformed | ✅ Supported | Prompts |

Transformation Notes:

• Claude Code receives Ring content in its native format
• Factory AI: agents → droids terminology
• Cursor: Skills → ~/.cursor/skills/, Agents → ~/.cursor/agents/
• Cline: All content → structured prompts

Platform-Specific Guides:

See the installer README for platform-specific setup and transformation details.

🚀 Quick Start

Multi-Platform Installation (Recommended)

The Ring installer automatically detects installed platforms and transforms content appropriately.

Linux/macOS/Git Bash:

# Interactive installer (auto-detects platforms)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lerianstudio/ring/main/install-ring.sh | bash

# Or clone and run locally
git clone https://github.com/lerianstudio/ring.git ~/ring
cd ~/ring
./installer/install-ring.sh

Windows PowerShell:

# Interactive installer (auto-detects platforms)
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lerianstudio/ring/main/install-ring.ps1 | iex

# Or clone and run locally
git clone https://github.com/lerianstudio/ring.git $HOME\ring
cd $HOME\ring
.\installer\install-ring.ps1

Direct Platform Installation

Install to specific platforms without the interactive menu:

# Install to Claude Code only (native format)
./installer/install-ring.sh install --platforms claude

# Install to Factory AI only (droids format)
./installer/install-ring.sh install --platforms factory

# Install to multiple platforms
./installer/install-ring.sh install --platforms c
