Auset CLI → Tool Marketplace

Date: April 3, 2026 Source: Mo’s directive at HQ Session 58

The Auset Platform’s IP protection and revenue model evolves in 3 stages:

  1. NOW: Worktree + symlink. Agents symlink .claude/ into worktrees. IP never in Heru repos.
  2. NEXT: Auset CLI (npx auset <command>). Developers get results, not prompts. Like AWS CLI.
  3. FUTURE: Tool marketplace. 1M+ tools (CLIs, MCPs, Skills). AI agents consume tools. Revenue from usage.

Key insight: “No external developer is hand-coding anymore. They use Claude Code, Codex, Cursor. We create the tool that the tools use.”

This is the beginning of the Auset Platform’s commercial model beyond client projects.
