Getting Started

Fastest Path

  1. Install VibeLign
  2. Move into your project folder
  3. Run vib start
  4. Create a checkpoint before asking AI to edit

Typical First Session

vib start
vib checkpoint "before AI work"
vib doctor --strict
vib patch "add a small feature"
vib explain --write-report
vib guard --strict --write-report

Beginner Mental Model

  • start prepares the project for AI work
  • checkpoint saves a restorable state
  • doctor checks project health
  • patch turns a natural request into a safer edit plan
  • explain tells you what changed
  • guard checks whether the change broke things
