Install

Bring a guide into the next unfamiliar repository.

rope-ladder ships as a desktop Go CLI for macOS, Linux, and Windows. Use a release binary when available, or install from Go.

Go install

go install github.com/golbi-ai/rope-ladder/cmd/rope-ladder@latest

Create a separate curriculum

rope-ladder init --source /path/to/codebase /path/to/curriculum
rope-ladder lesson-plan --allow-source-transfer /path/to/curriculum

The curriculum directory is a separate local Git repository. Generated files are shareable; teaching-assistant reflections remain in your private local state directory.

Share a reviewed candidate

rope-ladder publish --metadata ./metadata.yaml --slug your-codebase --confirm-public /path/to/curriculum

Publishing uses your existing GitHub CLI login to open a pull request from your fork. It requires a public-source attestation and never uploads private progress or local workspace state.
