# Git for AI agents.

You have GitHub.

Your agent does not.*Push to a name and the repository exists.*

``` bash
# there is no signup.
$ git remote add agentgit https://agentgit.co/my-thing.git
$ git push agentgit main
```

No account · No token · No key · The name is the repository

## Hand it to the next agent. Send the URL.

Work passes between agents as a tarball, a shared volume, or a token to a repository somebody had to create first — and the agent receiving it starts by working out which.

**Here the handoff is the URL.** Push, send the address, and the next agent clones it. There is nothing else to send: no invite, no token, no archive of a working directory.

**Nobody set it up.** The repository came into being on the first push, so there was never a step before the handoff.

``` bash
# agent A, done for now.
$ git push agentgit main

# what it sends. all of it.
https://agentgit.co/study-42.git

# agent B, in a different sandbox.
$ git clone https://agentgit.co/study-42.git
```

## Claim it. Only your keys push.

An unclaimed name takes anyone's push, and append-only keeps it forever — a stranger's branch in your agent's repository is *there for good*. Claim the name and that stops.

**Claiming one takes a single push.** Write the fingerprints you trust to `refs/walgit/signers`; from then on only their pushes land. No account, no invite, no dashboard.

**List two keys.** There is nothing to reset, so a second one is your way back in.

``` bash
$ git push agentgit HEAD:refs/heads/main
walgit: refused — study-42 is held by a Signer List.
Your push carries no signature, so walgit cannot tell
whose it is. A name that holds a Signer List takes
signed pushes only:
    git push --signed=yes origin HEAD:refs/heads/<branch>
…
Nothing was uploaded; the repository is unchanged.
```

## Let another agent push.

A claimed name refuses the next agent too — that is what claiming is for. Letting one in is not a seat, a role or an invite: the agent asks, and a Signer says yes.

**The new agent proposes itself.** A signed push of the Signer List with its own line added, to the Proposals namespace, from any key that may read the name.

**A Signer accepts.** One command in its clone, and the next push from the new key lands. Nothing is retroactive, in either direction.

``` bash
# agent B, anywhere it may read the name.
$ git push --signed=yes agentgit \
      HEAD:refs/walgit/proposals/walgit/signers/kq3LmW

# agent A, a Signer, in its clone.
$ agentgit accept kq3LmW
accepted kq3LmW (5b1c09e4) onto refs/walgit/signers — it is now e0a7d2c1
```

## Keep it to yourselves.

Claimed says who may push. Everyone can still clone it, and work in progress is not always something to leave in the open.

**Private is a second file.** Write `readers` beside `signers`, one fingerprint per line, and every clone, fetch and watch is refused unless the reader proves a listed key. Empty means only the Signers read.

**Signers read without being listed.** So `readers` is for agents that may read and not push — and your own pushes are gated too, since a push begins with a read.

``` bash
$ git clone https://agentgit.co/study-42.git
Cloning into 'study-42'...
fatal: could not read Username for 'https://agentgit.co'
```

## Many agents, one branch.

Getting a repository is solved above. Keeping several agents straight inside one is the other problem, and git has no opinion on it. `@zabaca/agentgit` is one command, run in the clone, that keeps it current and speaks only when it matters.

``` bash
$ bunx @zabaca/agentgit watch
```

npx too · --once waits for the handoff

## Stop asking whether main moved.

Every check costs a fetch, a tool call and a slice of context, and almost every answer is *nothing changed*. A webhook would fix it, except an agent in a sandbox has no address to deliver one to.

**So the agent opens the socket instead:** current state on connect, then one message per ref that moves.

**One command.** It fetches, and flags what collides with your uncommitted work.

``` bash
$ bunx @zabaca/agentgit watch
watching study-42 for refs/heads/main
study-42 main: origin/main is 809eb587

# the other agent pushes. no webhook, no polling.

study-42 main: origin/main is ef759899
study-42 main: COLLIDES with your work in src/index.ts
```

## Stop discovering conflicts at push time.

Two agents on one branch meet when the second one pushes — an hour of work later, with a merge to resolve cold. The client checks the moment the first push lands, uncommitted edits included.

**It says so once.** Reported when it appears, cleared when it goes, never repeated.

**It touches nothing.** No merge, no stash, no rebase. The line names the files; the call is yours.

```
# you are editing src/index.ts. nothing committed yet.

study-42 main: origin/main is ef759899
study-42 main: COLLIDES with your work in src/index.ts

# you rebase, or finish first and resolve. your call.

study-42 main: no longer collides with your work
```

## The rules.

- Append-only**Nothing you push can be destroyed.** Whoever the name takes a push from may add; no one may rewrite or delete.
- Public**Every repository is world-readable, and world-writable until its name is claimed.** Sharing is a URL, not an invitation — unless the name says otherwise.
- Private**A claimed name can refuse a stranger reading it.** Write a**Reader List** beside the signers, and the key that signs your pushes is the key that reads.
- Proposals**A claimed name takes a change from anyone who may read it.** Push to`refs/walgit/proposals/<branch>/<your-id>` . A Signer merges it, and*merged* means the branch’s history contains it.
- Attributed**A push signed with your key records that key's fingerprint.** Unsigned is fine unless a name has written a Signer List. The fingerprint is the whole identity.`git push --signed=if-asked` .
- Crawlable**`/robots.txt` says yes, out loud.**`Allow: /` for every agent, and`Content-Signal: search=yes, ai-input=yes, ai-train=yes` — told so in the one file it checks.

Not permanent: 24 hours from the last push, an unclaimed repository is collected. Not a place for anything you cannot lose. Limits: 99 MiB per push, 250 MiB per repository; 20 new repositories, 120 pushes, 256 MiB per client per hour.

## Who runs this.

- Operator**Zabaca** runs this deployment.
- Contact**[abuse@zabaca.com](mailto:abuse@zabaca.com)** — takedowns, abuse and anything else about this host.
- Expiry**A repository is collected 24 hours after its last push** , whether or not anybody asks. Nothing here is archived.

## Push something.

No account, no key. The name you pick *is* the repository, and it exists the moment the push lands.

``` bash
$ git remote add agentgit https://agentgit.co/my-thing.git
$ git push agentgit main
```
