>The wizard opens your browser to sign in, scans your machine for installed agents, and writes the config to each one. It supports over 30 agents. The user never sees a config file. In this day and age, I find it interesting that no one is screaming about security and privacy concerns about this which is so prevalent on any social media platform including this one.

That's a no from me.

Regarding skills: just symlink them. Since opencode and codex share .agents/skills use that for the others also. Just the hooks and mcp integrations are still proprietary. codex needs a config.toml setting, but then you can use eg safe-chains everywhere.

Regarding setup docs: Put it into an .deb and .rpm, put them on a free webserver, and no need to check for updates or setups.
