agent-toolkit-cli
The official CLI for agent-toolkit — install skills, agents, loops, and MCP configs across every major AI coding assistant.

What is this package?
agent-toolkit-cli is the PyPI adapter for the agent-toolkit monorepo (ADR-021). Platform wheels bundle the native V binary; agent-toolkit / agent-toolkit-cli are a thin trampoline (same idea as the npm package). There is no Python CLI fallback — see python-fallback.md.
It also ships:
- bundled skills, agents, loops, profiles, packs, and MCP templates
- install / doctor / sync workflows that deploy the right artifacts per AI tool
One CLI. Any coding assistant. Zero duplication.
uvx --from agent-toolkit-cli agent-toolkit install
agent-toolkit doctor
Quick start
Recommended: uv — no permanent install required.
# One-shot (preferred)
uvx --from agent-toolkit-cli agent-toolkit install
uvx --from agent-toolkit-cli agent-toolkit doctor
# Or install the CLI persistently
uv tool install agent-toolkit-cli
agent-toolkit install # auto-detects Claude, Cursor, OpenCode, Windsurf, Pi, Copilot
agent-toolkit doctor
Other installers
pip install agent-toolkit-cli
pipx install agent-toolkit-cli
# System packages (release notify → dedicated taps)
brew tap ulises-jeremias/homebrew-tap && brew install agent-toolkit
yay -S agent-toolkit-bin # Arch Linux (AUR) — GitHub Release V binary; not the Python AUR package
docker pull ghcr.io/ulises-jeremias/agent-toolkit
Full walkthrough: docs/INSTALLATION.md
Desktop GUI
Agent Toolkit Desktop is a standalone Electron app over the same V backend. It opens with a semantic pixel-art workspace and includes project interiors, People, Library, Operations, and real PTY terminals. Download the installer for your platform from GitHub Releases; a CLI or source checkout is not required to use Desktop. See the Desktop product guide and packaging notes.
Key concepts
🛠️ SkillsReusable capability units (SKILL.md) that teach an agent how to do a job — delivery, forge CLIs, design, data, ops.
80 skills across domains. Browse with agent-toolkit inventory or agent-toolkit skills list.
|
🤖 AgentsPersonas that constrain how the AI works — review, plan, architect, fix CI — without rewriting prompts each time.17 personas, compiled into each target's native format via install.
|
🔄 LoopsRecurring agentic workflows with mutation-safety tiers (L1 observe → L2 controlled → L3 high autonomy).agent-toolkit loop run daily-triage · 10 bundled templates
|
🔗 MCPProvider registry + ready templates (GitHub, Slack, Notion, Linear, Figma, ClickUp) emitted into target-native configs.agent-toolkit mcp list · mcp setup <provider> · mcp doctor
