Agent Adapters

Adapters provide the interface between youBencha and AI coding agents. They handle communication, log normalization, and result extraction.

Available Adapters

Copilot CLI

Adapter Responsibilities

Each adapter handles:

Configuration translation - Convert youBencha config to agent-specific format
Agent execution - Run the AI agent with the prompt
Log normalization - Transform output to youBencha Log format
Error handling - Capture and report agent failures

Configuring Adapters

Adapters are configured in the agent section of your suite:

agent:
  type: copilot-cli        # Adapter type
  model: claude-sonnet-4.5  # Model selection (optional)
  agent_name: my-agent      # Named agent (optional)
  config:
    prompt: "Task description"

Future Adapters

youBencha is designed for extensibility. Future adapters may include:

Cursor - Cursor IDE integration
Aider - Aider coding assistant
Continue - Continue.dev integration
Custom - Build your own adapter
