AI agents, skills and MCP servers,
one command away.

aidev installs reusable building blocks into GitHub Copilot, Claude Code and Codex. It puts each one where your tool looks for it, shows you what it can touch first, and undoes it in one step.

Demo: aidev installs an MCP server, a skill and an agent into Claude Code, writing each one to the folder that tool reads, then rolls the last install back. Click the terminal to type your own aidev command.

its own folder.

Copilot, Claude Code and Codex read agents, skills and MCP config from different places, in different formats. aidev knows all of them, so you type the same thing everywhere.

less copy-paste.
fewer surprises.

The boring parts of sharing AI setups, handled for you.

it asks before it writes.

Every install lists what it needs, like file access, shell commands or network calls, and waits for your yes.

every install can be undone.

aidev saves a rollback point before it touches a file. One command puts them back.

same setup on every laptop.

.aidev-lock.json pins versions and hashes. A teammate runs aidev install and gets exactly what you have.

your agent installs things too?

Commands speak --json and return documented exit codes, so Claude Code or Codex can search and install on their own.

will an update break it?

aidev update asks before it applies a major version.

is this MCP server safe?

aidev scans every listing for risky patterns like curl | bash, and marks imported ones as not reviewed.

company-only skills?

Private hubs for your team, with approved resources and policies that block what you don’t allow.

made something good?

aidev publish validates a folder and gives it a page, a version and an install command.

already have a CLAUDE.md?

aidev adds its own marked block and leaves the rest of your file alone.

yes, it’s just files.

What does aidev install?

Agents, skills, MCP servers, prompts, instructions, workflows and plugins: the reusable pieces that make an AI coding tool good at your project. Each one is a versioned listing on the hub.

Which AI coding tools does it support?

GitHub Copilot, Claude Code and Codex. aidev detects the tool your project uses, or you pick one with --provider. The same command works for all three.

Where do the files go?

Into your project, in each tool’s own folder: .github/ and .vscode/ for Copilot, .claude/ and .mcp.json for Claude Code, .agents/ and .codex/ for Codex. They are plain files you can read, diff and commit.

How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?

Run aidev install <name>. aidev adds the server to .mcp.json in your project, and Claude Code asks you to approve it the first time it starts.

Can I undo an install?

Yes. Every install creates a rollback point, and aidev rollback <id> puts the files back the way they were.

Can my coding agent use aidev on its own?

Yes. Commands support --json and --yes and return documented exit codes, so an agent can search, inspect and install without anyone at the keyboard.

Where do the listings come from?

From the official MCP Registry, github/awesome-copilot and ten other openly licensed collections, like anthropics/skills, openai/skills and wshobson/agents. Each is imported with a link to its source and marked “not reviewed”, and anything that fails the security scan is left out.

Is it free?

Yes. The CLI and the hub are free to use, and the code is on GitHub.
