-# Repository Guidelines
-
-## Project Structure & Module Organization
-Sliver is a Go monorepo. Core client code lives in `client/` (CLI, assets, transports) and server code in `server/` (C2 services, assets, configs). `implant/` holds implant payload sources, while `util/` provides shared helpers that must stay server-side. Protocol buffers live under `protobuf/`, and documentation assets are in `docs/`. Keep generated artifacts (e.g., `sliver-client`, `sliver-server`, `.downloaded_assets`) out of commits.
-
-## Build, Test, and Development Commands
-Use `make` targets to stay consistent:
-- `make` (or `make default`) compiles client/server binaries with vendored modules and tag defaults.
-- `make client` and `make linux-amd64` build platform-specific emitters; prefer `GOOS/GOARCH` env vars over editing sources.
-- `./go-assets.sh` refreshes client asset bundles; rerun when static files change.
-Regenerate protobuf bindings with `make pb`. For quick checks, `GOFLAGS="-tags client" go build ./client/...` is acceptable, but ensure the matching `server` build also succeeds.
-
-## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
-Target Go 1.22+ (see `Makefile` validation). Format code with `gofmt` or `goimports` before committing. Keep package imports segregated (stdlib, third-party, internal). Use lower_snake filenames for assets, PascalCase for exported Go symbols, and prefer explicit names (`sessionID`, `operatorConfig`) over abbreviations. Never import `server` packages inside `client`. Avoid introducing CGO unless justified for cross-platform support.
-
-## Testing Guidelines
-Run targeted unit tests with Go’s tooling and project tags, e.g. `go test -tags=client,go_sqlite ./client/command/...`. Full coverage uses `./build.py`; expect long runtimes and ensure ample CPU/RAM. Add tests beside code (`*_test.go`) and mirror package paths. When adding transports or implants, verify integration logs under `~/.sliver/logs/` for regressions and clean up fixtures.
-
-## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
-Sign every commit (`git commit -S`) and write imperative, scoped messages ("Fix DNS canary retry" rather than status updates). Keep vendor updates isolated in their own commit. Pull requests should describe the intent, affected modules, testing performed, and reference GitHub issues. Include before/after screenshots only when UI behavior changes (client console). Ensure CI passes and note any required follow-up.
-
-## Security & Configuration Tips
-Default to secure settings: avoid `math/rand` for secrets, prefer vetted crypto (AES-GCM, Curve25519) per `CONTRIBUTING.md`. Lock down file permissions for generated assets and redact secrets from logs. When touching configuration, favor secure defaults even if it means additional setup for operators.

-- `command/` – Shared registration glue, scaffolding, and helpers for Sliver client console command groups. Hosts common utilities for binding Cobra commands to RPC-backed actions.
-- `console/` – Renders the interactive console UI, logging, and terminal helpers for the client. Coordinates readline behavior, prompt styling, and message formatting.
-- `constants/` – Centralizes constants shared across the client runtime and command packages. Captures strings, flag names, and feature toggles used throughout the CLI.
-- `core/` – Maintains client application state, background workers, and RPC coordination. Orchestrates session tracking, event streams, and health checks.
-- `credentials/` – Credential management utilities including sniffers and import helpers for operators. Provides parsers, storage helpers, and output formatting for recovered secrets.
-- `licenses/` – Holds embedded license metadata bundled with the client distribution. Supplies license retrieval utilities used for attribution commands.
-- `overlord/` – Supervises long-running client jobs, scheduling, and task orchestration. Tracks job lifecycle events and exposes status updates to the console.
-- `packages/` – Deals with packaged extensions and module discovery for the client. Scans, validates, and caches extension manifests and assets.
-- `spin/` – Lightweight terminal spinner utilities used for progress feedback. Wraps spinner styles and timing helpers shared across commands.
-- `tcpproxy/` – Implements the local TCP proxy used for port forwarding from the client side. Manages listener lifecycles, connection pumps, and cleanup hooks.
-- `transport/` – Client-side transports and RPC wiring to communicate with Sliver servers. Builds authenticated gRPC clients, TLS dialers, and reconnect logic.
-- `version/` – Build-time version and semantic metadata for the client binary. Exposes git information, release channels, and helper formatters.

+General guidance on the structure of this package:
+ * One command per file and the name of the file should reflect the command it implements (or there about, trivial commands can go into the same file). This makes it easy to find where a command implementation lives within a package or to search by file name if it is not clear which package implements a given command.
+ * The root command, and reused code should go into the file named after the command
+   * For example, code shared between the `generate` and the `regenerate` command should go in `generate.go`, and any `regenerate` specific code should go in `regenerate.go`
+ * Command entrypoint functions should have the suffix `Cmd` e.g., `GenerateCmd` is the entrypoint for `generate`
+   * Command entrypoints should always a function signature of `func (ctx *grumble.Context, con *console.SliverConsoleClient)`
+ * Functions that are only ever exported for other commands to use should go in a `helpers.go`, if the function is used internally and exported follow the guidance above on shared code.

-- `commands.go` – Declares the extensions command tree and binds subcommands for list, install, load, and remove actions.
-- `extensions.go` – Manages installed/temporary extension manifests, printing metadata and supplying completers.
-- `extensions_test.go` *(tests)* – Verifies manifest parsing and conversion routines to guard against format regressions.
-- `install.go` – Installs extension bundles from directories or archives, handling overwrite prompts and asset extraction.
-- `list.go` – Queries the server for matching extensions and renders results categorized by hash or type.
-- `load.go` – Loads extension binaries for the active target, registers generated commands, and dispatches execution RPCs.
-- `remove.go` – Removes installed extensions, coordinating manifest lookups and filesystem cleanup.
+Here's an example manifest (i.e., the `extension.json` or a `alias.json`):

+        {"name": "pid", "type": "int", "desc": "pid", "optional": false},
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+The structure is the following one:
+
+- `name`: name of the extension, which will also be the name of the command in the sliver client
+- `help`: the documentation for the new command
+- `entrypoint`: the name of the exported function to call
+- `files`: a list of object pointing to the extensions files to load for each architectures and operating systems
+- `init`: the initialization function name (if relevant, can be omitted)
+- `arguments`: an optional list of objects (for DLLs), but mandatory for BOFs
+- `depends_on`: the name of an extension required by the current extension (won't load if the dependency is not loaded)
+
+The `type` of an argument can be one of the following:
+
+- `string`: regular ASCII string
+- `wstring`: string that will be UTF16 encoded
+- `int`: will be parsed as a 32 bit unsigned integer
+- `short`: will be parsed as a 16 bit unsigned integer
+- `file`: a string to a file path on the client side which content will be passed to the BOF
