Aident Skill

Aident AI helps agents move beyond chat and coding to get real work done across your tools and apps.

Aident Loadout connects work apps and Aident-managed platform tools to AI agents. It lets agents discover 1,000+ tools like Gmail, Slack, Linear, Google Sheets, Notion, HubSpot, Firecrawl, Exa, and Fal; use connected accounts through secure Aident Vault from any supported agent; use Aident-managed capabilities without separate provider keys; execute 27,000+ real-world actions; and review every action call in audit history. This single aident-skill teaches agents when and how to use Aident Loadout.

First-Time Setup

Ask your agent:

Follow https://aident.ai/SETUP.md

The setup guide will install or refresh aident-skill, set up the Aident CLI, guide login, and verify Aident Loadout access.

To refresh an existing agent setup later, ask the agent:

Update https://aident.ai/SETUP.md

Manual Skill Install

If you only need to install the static skill package manually:

npx -y @aident-ai/cli@latest update --skill-only

The CLI verifies the published artifact, installs one canonical global copy, and repairs detected filesystem-backed agent hosts. Add --project only when you want clean project-scoped copies migrated too. Account-level skill surfaces such as Claude Cowork or Claude chat still require their native skill manager. After this command, continue with https://aident.ai/SETUP.md to complete Aident Loadout setup.

This repository contains the static post-setup Aident Loadout skill knowledge. After setup is complete, agents use this skill to operate Aident Loadout through the CLI, user-managed MCP, or advanced OpenAPI surfaces.

Install Aident Skill from anywhere

We have published Aident Skill across the following Skill, MCP, and Plugin marketplaces. You can install it from the marketplace your agent or client already supports.

Skill Marketplace	Install Link
Skills.sh	Install Aident Skill from Skills.sh
ClawHub	Install Aident Skill from ClawHub

The Cursor Marketplace package, also used by Grok Bot, connects directly to Aident Loadout through MCP. It does not install another copy of aident-skill, so it can coexist with a CLI-managed global Skill without duplicate routing instructions. Marketplace links will be added here after the listing is approved and its public URLs are verified.

How It Works

The installable SKILL.md is intentionally small. It teaches the agent when to use Aident Loadout, then points to focused references packaged with the skill:

Need	Reference
External tools, SaaS apps, integrations, Vault, execution, audit history	references/loadout.md
MCP client setup	references/mcp.md
Raw HTTPS/OpenAPI fallback	references/api.md
Authentication and troubleshooting	references/troubleshooting.md

CLI

The CLI is the recommended operating path when an agent can run shell commands:

aident login
aident skills search --query "web research" --json
aident skills read --name "skill:<uuid>" --artifactVersionId "<uuid>" --json
aident capabilities search --query "send email" --json
aident capabilities execute --name composio:gmail_tools:gmail_send_email --input '{"to":"team@example.com","subject":"Hi","body":"..."}' --json
aident vault status --integrationId composio:gmail_tools --json
aident audit recent --limit 20 --json

MCP

MCP is configured automatically by the Cursor Marketplace and Grok Bot plugin. Other MCP clients can configure it manually:

• Aident Loadout integrations: https://loadout.aident.ai/mcp

See references/mcp.md for client-specific setup.

Authentication

CLI auth uses aident login. MCP clients initiate OAuth on first use. Tokens are managed by the CLI or MCP client, not by the skill text.
