VX - Universal Development Tool Manager

One-sentence summary: vx = prefix any dev tool command with vx → it auto-installs the tool and runs it.

vx is a universal development tool manager that automatically installs and manages development tools (Node.js, Python/uv, Go, Rust, etc.) with zero configuration.

Core Concept

Instead of requiring users to manually install tools, prefix any command with vx:

vx node --version      # Auto-installs Node.js if needed
vx uv pip install x    # Auto-installs uv if needed
vx go build .          # Auto-installs Go if needed
vx cargo build         # Auto-installs Rust if needed
vx just test           # Auto-installs just if needed

vx is fully transparent - same commands, same arguments, just add vx prefix.

Essential Commands

Tool Execution (most common)

vx <tool> [args...]           # Run any tool (auto-installs if missing)
vx node app.js                # Run Node.js
vx python script.py           # Run Python (via uv)
vx npm install                # Run npm
vx npx create-react-app app   # Run npx
vx cargo test                 # Run cargo
vx just build                 # Run just (task runner)
vx git status                 # Run git
vx gh pr status               # Run GitHub CLI

Git and GitHub for Codex

When Codex or another AI agent works in a vx-managed repository, use vx-managed Git and GitHub CLI commands. Do not run bare git or bare gh.

vx git status --short --branch
vx git fetch origin main
vx git checkout -B fix/example origin/main
vx git diff --stat
vx git add path/to/file
vx git commit -m "fix: example"

vx gh issue view 123
vx gh pr view 456 --json title,state,headRefName
vx gh pr checks 456
vx gh run view 789 --json status,conclusion,jobs

Token-Efficient Agent Workflows

vx is not just an installation wrapper. For agents, it is the stable way to use fast search, structured GitHub queries, JSON filters, and scoped diffs without spending tokens on irrelevant output.
