FOR CODING AGENTS

Checks, built into your agent

Install the CLI once. Your coding agent gets three verbs backed by four frontier models: ask an open question, check text you already have, verify a whole draft. Plus an MCP server. It never leaves the terminal.

Quick start

01

Install the CLI

One command on macOS or Linux. Installs the truestandard binary and the ts alias.

$ curl -fsSL https://truestandard.ai/install.sh | sh
02

Authenticate

Opens your browser to connect your account, then installs the agent skill into Claude Code or Codex if it finds them in the current folder. On a headless box or in CI, use an API token instead.

$ truestandard auth login
03

Add it to a project

Run this inside any repo to install or refresh the skill for Claude Code and Codex. Already done if you ran auth login from that folder.

$ truestandard skills install

Works with your agent

Claude Code and Codex install automatically — the CLI detects them in your project and writes the skill. Cowork is a desktop app, so it's a quick manual step.

Claude Code

Automatic

skills install (or auth login) writes the Skill into your project. Claude loads it automatically the moment a task needs verification.

Writes

.claude/skills/truestandard/SKILL.md

Codex

Automatic

Writes a managed block to your repo's AGENTS.md. The CLI, desktop, and cloud surfaces all read it — commit AGENTS.md so every surface picks it up.

Writes

AGENTS.md

Cowork

Manual

The desktop app loads Skills from your global ~/.claude/skills/ folder, not a project. Install it there, then turn on Code execution & file creation in Settings → Capabilities.

Run

mkdir -p ~/.claude && (cd ~ && truestandard skills install)

Prefer to install the skill yourself? Pass --no-skills to auth login, then run skills install when you're ready.

What your agent can run

Three content verbs. Ask when you have a question and no answer yet. Check when you have text and want a verdict on it. Verify when it's a whole draft. Every one takes the same --depth.

Command What it does
truestandard ask Ask one question; GPT, Claude, Gemini and Grok each answer. Raw answers by default so your agent reconciles them; --consensus names the agreement and the splits. --pro runs the pro models.
truestandard check <type> Get a verdict on text you already have: claims, citations, slop, sycophancy, premortem, red-team. --depth single is free (one a day), council runs four models (1 credit), deep runs 4 pro → 2 critics → 1 mediator (3 credits).
truestandard verify The composed check for a whole draft: every claim and citation, one verdict and a shareable report.
truestandard check --list The server's catalog: every type, its aliases, depths and credit floors.
truestandard mcp Serve the same checks as MCP tools over stdio for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex.
truestandard credits Check your credit balance and plan.
