getAdvantage CLI · free & open-source · live now

Own the app the AI built you — across every model and tool.

getAdvantage is a free, open-source command you run in your project. It keeps your project context in your repo — so you can switch between Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, Bolt or any model and pick up exactly where you left off — and it gates your code before you deploy with a plain GO / NO-GO.

No lock-in, no signup, no paywall — ever. It checks the result, not the tool, because your project brain belongs to you, not your AI. Why that matters →

Runs locally · nothing leaves your machine · no signup. Tip: always run getadvantage — the bare ship-safe on npm is an unrelated package by someone else.

Your portable project brain

Your project context belongs to you — not to whatever AI you used today.

Vibe-coded apps live inside one AI's memory. Switch models, open a fresh chat, or hand the repo to someone else and the context is gone. getAdvantage writes that context into your repo as plain files, so it travels with the code — readable by Claude, Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, or a human. The brief and handoff commands keep it current.

Portabilityfree · open

A project brief any model can read

getadvantage brief

Writes a plain, human-readable brief of what your project is, how it's wired, and what matters — into your repo. Paste it into a new chat, hand it to a teammate, or feed it to the next model.

Handofffree · open

Hand off without losing the thread

getadvantage handoff

Captures where you are so the next session — yours, a collaborator's, or a different AI tool — starts with context instead of a blank slate. The context lives with the code, not inside one AI tool.

The gatefree · open

Gate before every deploy

getadvantage

The default command. Reads your repo and ends with one plain verdict — GO or NO-GO — so a leaked key, uncommitted work, or a broken build never reaches production.

One CLI, one project brain — portable across every model and tool, and it never leaves your machine. Every command, documented →

The pre-deploy gate

One command before you ship. One clear answer: GO or NO-GO.

The default command is the pre-deploy gate. No dashboard to read, no number to interpret — getAdvantage reads your repo locally and ends with a single verdict: green to ship, red to fix first. Here's what that looks like.

npx getadvantage

Illustrative output — a fixed example, not a live run. Your real verdict is whatever Ship-Safe finds in your repo, and it's always a plain GO or NO-GO, never a score.

What the gate reads

Every check it runs — and what it tells you before you ship.

Apps built with Lovable, Bolt, v0 and Claude Code move fast — and the things that break a deploy are exactly the things that are easy to miss. getAdvantage reads each one and reports it plainly. It tells you what it found; it doesn't claim your app is “secure”.

Every check above runs locally, on your machine — and getAdvantage ends with one verdict, GO or NO-GO, never a vanity score. What each check means, in plain language →
