Eru.Tool 0.7.1

eru

eru is a CLI tool for sharing knowledge files between projects. Declare where your shared files live (a git repo), pull them in with a single command, and track everything in a lock file so they stay in sync.

• Manifests — knowledge-source repos publish .eru/manifest.json to declare available files; consumers pull from it automatically
• Collections — group related files into a named set and pull them all with one command
• Tag-based pulls — --tag devops fetches everything tagged devops across all collections
• Glob patterns — collection entries can use globs to pull multiple files in one reference (e.g. docs/*.md)
• Lock file (.eru/eru.lock) records every pulled file: its origin, path, and content hash
• Dry-run mode on every write command
• Global config (~/.config/eru/config.json) for sources and collections shared across all your repos

Requirements

• .NET 10 SDK or later
• git

Install

Install the Eru.Tool tool:

dotnet tool install --global Eru.Tool

Leave off --global to install locally in a repo instead.

Install the skill with skills.sh:

npx skills add dburriss/eru

The skill tells agents how to use the CLI.

Quick start

1. Initialise your repo

eru init

Creates .eru/config.json in the current directory.

2. Pull a file

Paste a GitHub or GitLab file URL directly:

eru add https://github.com/my-org/knowledge/blob/main/docs/adr-template.md

eru registers the source automatically, downloads the file, and records it in .eru/eru.lock.

Or pull by source name and path once a source is configured:

eru add knowledge:docs/adr-template.md

Or pull an entire curated collection:

eru add --collection onboarding-docs

3. Keep files up to date

eru sync

Fetches every file in .eru/eru.lock, compares content hashes, and overwrites anything that has drifted.

Commands

MCP server

eru mcp exposes knowledge search and retrieval to AI agents (Claude, Copilot, Cursor, etc.) over the Model Context Protocol. See docs/mcp.md.
