⚙️ devtap - Connect Build Output to AI Coding

📖 What is devtap?

devtap is a tool that helps you connect your build and development tools with AI coding assistants. It works with popular AI models like Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, and aider. This connection allows these AI tools to understand the results of your coding process better.

If you want your AI coding helper to have more context about what you build or create during development, devtap bridges that gap. It uses something called MCP (Model Context Protocol) to share this data smoothly.

🖥️ System Requirements

Before installing devtap, make sure your computer meets these needs:

• Operating System: Windows 10 or higher, macOS 10.15 or higher, or Linux (Ubuntu 18.04+ recommended)
• Processor: Any modern 64-bit processor
• Memory: At least 4 GB RAM
• Storage: Minimum 100 MB free space
• Internet: Required for downloading the software and some AI features
• Permissions: Ability to install software on your device

📦 What devtap Does

Here are the main features you can expect:

• Connects your build output with AI coding assistants automatically
• Supports multiple AI coding models and tools
• Uses MCP to share build and development context efficiently
• Works from your command line interface (CLI) or integrates into your existing tools
• Helps improve the quality of AI coding suggestions by giving real build data

🚀 Getting Started

  ./devtap

You may need permission to install software. If asked, enter your computer password.

Step 3. Run devtap

After installation, open your command prompt or terminal program:

• Type devtap --help and press Enter. This command shows you the basic options available.
• To start devtap and connect your build tools with an AI assistant, follow the instructions shown or in the next section.

⚙️ How to Use devtap

devtap works mainly through the command line interface (CLI). Here is a simple way to get started connecting your project:

1. Open your terminal or command prompt.
2. Navigate to the folder where your project code is saved. For example, on Windows you might type:

   cd C:\Users\YourName\Documents\MyProject

3. Run devtap with a command to let it listen for your build output. Example:

   devtap listen --model codex

This command tells devtap to start capturing your build or development output and share it with the Codex AI coding model. Replace “codex” with the AI assistant you use.

If you want devtap to support your workflow automatically, review the documentation on the releases page or the included README files for your specific setup.
