# `mix agent_kit.install`
[🔗](https://github.com/sallaumen/elixir-agent-kit/blob/68287ba345096bcce6ace92248f74e408d0245e4/lib/mix/tasks/agent_kit.install.ex#L1)

Install project-local agent guidance without overwriting unmanaged content.

    mix agent_kit.install

Same reconciliation as `mix agent_kit.sync`. Configuration is read from
`:elixir_agent_kit` in `Mix.Project.config/0`; when that entry exists it is the
source of truth, otherwise the recorded selection in `.elixir-agent-kit/state.tsv`
is kept. `--agents codex,claude,generic` and `--skills ID,ID` override it for one
run; `--dry-run` lists the paths without writing. Fails when the dependency's
library is incomplete. No task starts your application or calls a model.
