Agentic Development
How Varel turns Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot into higher-quality SaaS shipping partners.
AGENTS.md is the canonical instruction file for coding agents and the source of truth for the critical change checklist.
The checklist forces agents to consider SEO, Polar billing, marketing/product sync, data boundaries, auth, env, email, analytics, accessibility, docs, and deployability on every task.
Tool-specific files stay thin and point back to the shared source of truth so Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and Copilot all follow the same expectations.
The repo skill captures common feature, billing, email, data, marketing, and agent-guidance workflows for repeatable Codex runs.
pnpm varel doctor gives agents and beginners a dev/preview/prod setup report before they touch third-party dashboards or APIs.
pnpm varel setup plan shows the provider-native environment split for Clerk, Convex, Polar, Resend, PostHog, and Vercel.
pnpm polar:doctor checks the official Polar checkout, benefit, customer portal, and GitHub repository access handoff.
pnpm cal:doctor verifies the internal Cal.com consulting booking handoff and keeps the Polar payment split explicit.
pnpm agent:preflight turns the checklist into executable checks for env sync, metadata, proxy coverage, billing consistency, and Convex adapter honesty.
pnpm agent:mcp exposes Varel repo truth through a local MCP entrypoint for agent clients.
The guidance layer is part of the product surface: it helps first-time builders avoid footguns and helps seasoned engineers move faster without lowering the engineering bar.
