Teams (Import / Export)

aide supports sharing agent templates via git repositories.

Export

# Export all agents
aide export --to ./my-team-template

# Export a specific agent
aide export --to ./my-team-template --name reviewer

Export copies only shareable files:

  • Aidefile
  • CLAUDE.md
  • skills/

It excludes private data:

  • memory/ — per-deployment state
  • vault.key — private encryption key
  • vault.age — encrypted secrets
  • .git/

Import

aide import https://github.com/user/agent-templates.git

Import clones the repo and registers every subdirectory that contains an Aidefile. Agents are copied to ~/.aide/<name>/.

If the repo root itself has an Aidefile, it's also imported (named after the repo).

Team workflow

team-agents/           ← git repo
├── reviewer/
│   ├── Aidefile
│   ├── CLAUDE.md
│   └── skills/
├── writer/
│   ├── Aidefile
│   ├── CLAUDE.md
│   └── skills/
└── README.md

# Team lead exports
aide export --to ./team-agents
cd team-agents && git push

# Team member imports
aide import https://github.com/org/team-agents.git
# ✓ Imported 'reviewer'
# ✓ Imported 'writer'

Each member sets up their own vault locally. The templates are shared; the secrets are not.
