InitRunner

InitRunner is a developer-focused tool that simplifies AI agent setup by compressing configuration into a single YAML file. Instead of writing wiring code, users define their agent’s model, system prompt, tools, and guardrails in a role.yaml file and run the agent directly from the terminal.

Key Features

• YAML-based AI agent configuration
• Define model, system prompt, tools, and guardrails declaratively
• Eliminates the need for wiring or orchestration code
• Simple terminal-based execution
• Clean and readable role.yaml structure
• Designed for fast agent prototyping and iteration

Pros

• Greatly reduces boilerplate code
• Improves clarity and maintainability of agent setups
• Faster agent development and experimentation
• Easy to version-control and share configurations
• Developer-friendly and lightweight

Cons

• Requires familiarity with YAML
• Less flexible for highly custom logic
• May not suit complex, dynamic agent workflows
• Still dependent on underlying model/tool compatibility
