What Ouroboros Config does

Ouroboros Config opens or drives the Ouroboros settings interface (browser, TUI, or conversational fallback) so an agent can change per-stage runtime and model selections, global runtime, LLM backend, and install badges for missing CLIs. Use it when the user asks to configure Ouroboros, change models or agents, or fix missing dependencies.

Ouroboros Config is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Ouroboros Config comes from a repository tagged agent-os, agentic-ai, ai-agent, ai-coding-agent and claude-code.
