Summary

The CLI binary was renamed gitagentgapman in v0.3.0, with gitagent kept as an alias for backward compatibility. The docs were never fully swept to match. This PR updates all command-line examples to use the canonical gapman invocation.

What changed

  • 218 occurrences across 19 files rewritten via a regex sweep
  • gitagent <verb>gapman <verb> for all 14 CLI verbs (init, validate, info, export, import, install, audit, skills, run, lyzr, registry, test, diff, clone)
  • gitagent --flaggapman --flag
  • npx gitagentnpx gapman
  • @shreyaskapale/gitagent (deprecated) and @open-gitagent/gitagent (renamed) → @open-gitagent/gapman
  • npm install -g gitagent (unscoped) → npm install -g gapman

What deliberately did NOT change

  • "gitagent" as the project / protocol name in prose (e.g., "gitagent vs. Alternatives", "the gitagent standard")
  • open-gitagent/gitagent-protocol repo URL
  • .gitagent/ runtime state directory
  • gitagent as a class/identifier in source code (unchanged)
  • paper/open-gap.md (paper has its own canonical phrasing)
  • The two backward-compat alias notes (README.md:256 and docs.md:62) explicitly mention that gitagent is installed as an alias — those stay

Files changed

  • README.md, docs.md, CONTRIBUTING.md
  • spec/SPECIFICATION.md
  • docs/comparison.md, docs/adapters/gemini.md
  • examples/gitagent-helper/ (8 files), examples/lyzr-agent/, examples/nvidia-deep-researcher/, examples/jason-my-claw-is-the-law-deebee-4567b4/, examples/standard/memory/daily-log/2026-02-18.md
  • .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md

Test plan

  • git diff main shows pure docs changes — no source code touched
  • No remaining gitagent <verb> CLI invocations in tracked docs (verified via grep -r 'gitagent (init|validate|...) ' --include='*.md')
  • Backward-compat alias notes preserved in README and docs.md

The CLI binary was renamed gitagent → gapman in v0.3.0, with gitagent
kept as an alias. This sweep updates all command-line examples in docs
and example READMEs to use the canonical 'gapman' invocation.

- README.md, docs.md, CONTRIBUTING.md
- spec/SPECIFICATION.md
- docs/comparison.md, docs/adapters/gemini.md
- examples/gitagent-helper/, examples/lyzr-agent/, examples/nvidia-deep-researcher/, examples/jason-my-claw-is-the-law-deebee-4567b4/
- .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md
- @shreyaskapale/gitagent (deprecated) and @open-gitagent/gitagent (renamed) install commands updated to @open-gitagent/gapman

The gitagent alias still works at runtime — backward-compat notes preserved.
Project / protocol / repo names ("gitagent", "open-gitagent/gitagent-protocol")
are unchanged; only CLI invocations and npm package names were rewritten.
