Agent Development Kit for Partner AI Enablement: the shared knowledge base for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Claude and ChatGPT in the browser). With it they build, configure, test, debug and connect voice and chat agents on the Newo platform for partners and business owners.
If you are a coding assistant: start with AGENTS.md. It tells you what to read for the task you were given and the rules you must follow.
If you are a person: point your coding assistant at this repository (for example, "read https://github.com/newo-ai/agent-development-kit and help me set up my Newo agent"). The assistant does the technical work; you make the decisions.
