# Build embeddable Rust coding agents with Cersei

Compose coding-agent primitives in Rust, including tool execution, LLM streaming, sub-agent orchestration, memory, and MCP support, as an embeddable application workflow.

## Prerequisites

Rust toolchain, Cargo, model provider credentials, optional MCP-compatible tools

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- cargo install --path crates/abstract-cli
- cargo run --example stress_core_infrastructure --release # system prompt, compact, context, bash classifier
- cargo run --example stress_tools --release # all 30+ tools, registry, performance
- cargo run --example stress_orchestration --release # sub-agents, coordinator, tasks, messaging

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- abstract # Interactive REPL
- abstract "fix the failing tests" # Single-shot
- abstract --resume # Resume last session
