create-host-ai-scaffold

When to use

Use when the host repo does not yet have the expected .hephaera/.cache structure or when Hephaera bootstrap wiring is missing from the host root AGENTS.md.

Output

• Resolved project .hephaera/.cache/SYSTEM_MEMORY.md exists with protected defaults.
• The project .hephaera/.cache directory contains durable system memory, tagged memory, semantic map, rules, debug, archives, reports, and task files. It is ignored by the baseline's Git repository and must be preserved during ordinary updates.
• Host root AGENTS.md includes a managed bootstrap block that reads only ./.hephaera/AGENTS.md.
• Existing host AGENTS.md content outside the managed block is preserved.
• Installs use only <project-root>/.hephaera/; alternate directory names and previous installations are unsupported. Scaffolding does not probe or copy previous install or memory locations.
• Root ENGINE.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, STYLE.md, optional MEDIA.md, and optional Brainstorm state remain at the project root.
• Windows hosts receive .hephaera/.cache/WINDOWS_BASH.md with safe Git Bash and WSL setup commands; Linux and macOS do not need the Windows bootstrap.
• Scaffold creation never installs Bash automatically.

Commands

• From the project root: bash ./.hephaera/commands/create-host-ai-scaffold.sh
• Windows before Bash is available: powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "./.hephaera/commands/install-windows-bash.ps1" -RunScaffold -ProjectRoot .
