# Intermesh

> Agent-first evaluation for existing CLIs.

# Intermesh

Intermesh helps agents evaluate whether an existing CLI can complete real product tasks safely and reliably.

The public alpha is **CLI evaluation**. Give an agent a repository, npm package, or tarball; Intermesh freezes the candidate, runs approved scenarios, and returns evidence for a release decision.

## Start here

[Agent quickstart](/getting-started) → [Bring an existing CLI](/evaluate-cli/bring-a-cli)

## What an agent does

```text theme={null}
Select a CLI source
  → freeze and inspect one artifact
  → create a reviewable evaluation plan
  → run approved isolated attempts
  → return evidence
```

Intermesh does not modify the candidate it evaluates. A completed run is not automatically a passed task; evidence records passed, failed, incomplete, and unmeasured work.
