Developers now have a new tool for managing configurations across different AI coding tools. LNAI, a unified configuration management CLI, allows you to define settings once and sync them to various platforms. It supports Claude, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, and Windsurf, streamlining the process of maintaining consistent settings across multiple tools.

This matters because as developers increasingly rely on AI coding assistants, managing individual configurations becomes cumbersome. LNAI addresses this by providing a single source of truth for project rules and permissions. Using a simple `lnai sync` command, changes are instantly propagated to the supported tools, ensuring consistency and saving time.

LNAI’s functionality includes automatic cleanup of orphaned files when configs change, further simplifying maintenance. The tool is open-source and available on GitHub, with detailed documentation. The project is still early stage, but the need is clear. Expect more support for other coding tools in the future.

To get started, developers can install LNAI using npm, initialize a configuration with `lnai init`, validate for errors with `lnai validate`, and then sync settings with `lnai sync`. This approach promises to improve developer workflows and create more consistent usage of AI-powered coding.
