Baton DX – CLI package manager for AI coding tool configuration

Summary: Baton DX centralizes configuration for 14 AI coding tools using a single baton.yaml file. It manages profiles with version control, composability, and team sharing, synchronizing settings like skills, rules, and memory files across tools to prevent duplication and inconsistency.

What it does

Baton DX acts as a CLI package manager that defines, locks, and syncs AI tool configurations via a manifest file. It handles complex merge strategies and profile inheritance to resolve conflicts when multiple profiles modify the same config.

Who it's for

It is designed for developers managing configurations across multiple AI coding tools who need consistent, synchronized setups.

Why it matters

Baton DX solves the problem of scattered, duplicated, and out-of-sync AI tool configurations by providing a unified, version-controlled management system.
