I built AICO, an open-source CLI framework built around the core slogan: Manage AI collaborators like managing employees. It turns AI tools/skills into dedicated role-based "AI employees" (PM, Frontend, Backend Engineer, etc).

This is an experimental side project, and over the past two months, I’ve built 2-3 full projects solo using the 3 pre-built roles, each with tailored skills/commands: PM, Frontend Engineer, Backend Engineer. All AI capabilities are role-aligned for real-world work (I’m trying to hit this goal).

1-line setup (pnpm/yarn/npm/bun): pnpm add -g @the-aico/cli && aico init && aico add pm

I’m sharing this just to get some feedback from the community, and I’d really love your input! What AI employee roles should I add next (DevOps? Data Scientist? UX Designer?)? What skills/commands are missing from the current PM/Frontend/Backend roles to make this more useful for your workflow?

Would truly appreciate any of your thoughts, critiques and ideas!
