Why lpm?

• Native macOS app — GUI with live terminal, config editor, notes, and theme support
• No Docker required — runs your services natively
• Auto-detects project setup — Rails, Next.js, Go, Django, Flask, Docker Compose
• Profiles for running service subsets
• Actions — one-shot commands like tests, migrations, and deploys, runnable from the Actions button
• Works with any stack — if it runs in a terminal, lpm can manage it

AI Agent Skills

lpm ships two agent skills: lpm-config writes and edits project config, and lpm-cli drives the lpm command-line tool to control running projects (start/stop, logs, status, duplicate). Install them via skills.sh:

npx skills add gug007/lpm

Then just tell your agent "set up lpm for this project" and it will analyze your codebase, discover services, and write the config.

See lpm-config/README.md and lpm-cli/README.md for details.
