Anvil

Existing Project

Use this flow when the repository already has application code and Anvil should add guardrails without assuming it owns the project.

Terminal window
git status --short
anvil init --lang typescript --dry-run
anvil init --lang typescript
make check
make quality

Do not overwrite unrelated work blindly. Review conflicts and rerun the scaffold after resolving them.

Expect make check to surface existing quality debt. That is useful signal: Anvil turns drift into a concrete list of lint, test, coverage, dead-code, CRAP, audit, or type-check work that a human or coding agent can address in smaller loops.
