Needt

_{Real Needt screens. /needt calls Needt's own tools over MCP — the same ones the app uses.}

Install

Where	How
Claude (web, Desktop)	Download needt.plugin → Customize → Plugins → Add → Upload plugin
Claude Code	claude plugin marketplace add teenxgrailed/needt-plugin then claude plugin install needt@needt
Codex	codex plugin marketplace add teenxgrailed/needt-plugin
Single skills	Download a skill zip from the latest release → Customize → Skills → Upload
Any MCP client	Remote server https://mcp.needt.app/mcp (streamable HTTP, OAuth)

Then start a new chat and just talk — "what's on today?", "help me think about pricing", "find the best way to…". You never have to name a skill.

The skills

Skill	What it does
/needt	Your planner in every chat. Adds, moves and finishes tasks, breaks plans into steps, reads your day across calendars, logs habits, writes pages, turns mail into tasks, remembers how you work. Starts on its own when you say "add…", "remind me…", "what's today", "move…", "done" — in English, Russian, Ukrainian, German, Spanish and French.	Pro
/needt:partner	Business partner. Reads your real numbers from whatever your AI is connected to, finds the real question, picks the best of two or three moves, does the work and lands it in Needt. Calls the other skills itself. Money ends in a verdict: take, take if X, walk.	Free
/needt:search	Research that finds the good option, not the first one. Web, YouTube transcripts, X and GitHub, wide first then deep. Opens with the Find — the non-obvious thing — and dates every source.	Free
/needt:prompt	A rough wish becomes one prompt of the right size, with stages that use the other skills.	Free
/needt:asking	Grill-me: clickable questions in rounds until nothing is assumed. A short mode the other skills use to clarify.	Free
/needt:critic	Takes a plan apart before launch, gently: every finding is problem → solution → cost → confidence, then the fixed plan in full.	Free
/needt:youtube	Paste a YouTube link and ask. Pulls title, chapters, description and the timestamped transcript, answers with [mm:ss].	Free
+setup	Internal. Prints the Needt · readiness line, onboards tools once, reads your memory.	Free

/needt needs a Needt Pro account — it connects to your planner over MCP. Every other skill works without an account.

How it works

One readiness line. The first skill you use in a chat prints a line like Needt · ready · project: Acme · tone: casual · search: web, youtube, github · questions: click · agents: yes · memory: 12. Every other skill reads it instead of checking again. It costs no tool calls.

Memory that follows you. When you say "remember…", "never do X again", or correct how something was done, the plugin saves one line to your Needt memory (Saved: …) and every skill treats it as a standing instruction — in any chat, on any device. Secrets, health details and one-off facts are never saved. Turn it off any time in the Needt app.

Uses what your AI already has. Skills route to the tools your host exposes — web search, Firecrawl, Exa, GitHub, Context7, YouTube — and say so when something is missing instead of faking it. On first run, setup lists free ways to add the missing ones in a few lines.

Parallel and cheap. Independent research runs in parallel sub-agents on a faster model; synthesis, judgement and verdicts stay with the main model.

Asks only when it matters. Reversible actions run and get reported in one line. Sending, posting, paying and deleting always wait for your yes.

Privacy

The plugin is Markdown instructions, one small Python script for YouTube transcripts (runs only if yt-dlp is installed), and one MCP connection to https://mcp.needt.app/mcp. No hooks, no telemetry. Your assistant reads and writes your own Needt data through that server after you sign in with OAuth; nothing else is sent anywhere by the plugin.
