Neoagent

You know the feeling. A task shows up on your plate — rename forty files in a predictable pattern, summarize a folder, check a repo for something you half-remember — and the honest answer is that it'd take ten minutes of typing and thirty seconds of actual thinking. That's the gap neoagent aims at.

neoagent is an npm package that runs AI-assisted commands from the terminal. You install it (or run it straight from npx) and point it at a task. It figures out the shape of the work with an AI model and does it. It's in the category of small developer productivity runners — the kind of tool you keep for the ten-minute tasks that don't deserve a real script but are too repetitive to do by hand.

The audience is developers who already live in the terminal and want an AI helper they can call the same way they'd call git or jq. If you're already comfortable typing commands and reading stdout, this slots in. If you're not, something like Claude Desktop or a web chat is probably a better first stop.

Because it's an npx-installable package, the upside is: no setup, no config file, no account dance. The downside is: it lives inside whatever model and runtime it's wired to, and the quality of what it produces is only as good as that. Read the package's README for the model and credential setup before you point it at anything important.

Pair it with Questlog if you want your runs to leave a persistent trail, or with a proper orchestration layer like Squad Station 2 when one agent isn't enough.

For the next task you catch yourself groaning at, try running it through neoagent once and see if the ten minutes collapse into thirty seconds.
