Details
From the project READMESetup Scalekit
Install the Scalekit CLI and plugin. Pick AgentKit or SaaSKit. Stop.
Guardrails
- MUST stop after install + kit pick and name
setup-agentkitorsetup-saaskit. - MUST NOT start those wizards from this skill.
Gotchas
- Run
npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup -yfirst. You have no TTY, so the interactive wizard exits without-y. Use a native plugin command only when that CLI cannot run. - Add
--dry-runto any setup command to preview it without running it. - The marketplace is
authstack. Its plugins areagentkitandsaaskit. - Plugins and portable skills both install from
scalekit-inc/authstack.scalekit-inc/skillsis retired. - After the kit is picked, name
setup-agentkitorsetup-saaskit. Stop. Do not start those wizards here. - For current CLI flags, run
npx @scalekit-inc/cli --help.
Step 1 — Install
Set up every detected agent:
npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup -y
For repeated use:
npm install -g @scalekit-inc/cli
scalekit setup -y
Target a specific tool only when the user names it:
npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup claude -y
npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup cursor -y
npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup codex -y
npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup copilot -y
Skills only, for other agents:
npx @scalekit-inc/cli skills install -y
Preview first with --dry-run, for example npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup -y --dry-run. A human in their own terminal can run npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup without -y for the interactive wizard.
Skip this step when the plugin or skills pack is already installed.
Done when: the plugin is visible in the current tool.
| Tool | Check |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | Restart the session. /plugin list shows agentkit and/or saaskit. |
| GitHub Copilot | copilot plugin list shows the plugin. |
| Cursor / Codex | Re-open the tool. Authstack plugins or skills are available. |
| Other (skills CLI) | The chosen skill folder exists on disk (for example setup-agentkit/SKILL.md in the tool's skills directory). |
Step 2 — Pick the kit
| Kit | Pick when the user needs |
|---|---|
| AgentKit | connections, token vault, tools |
| SaaSKit | app login, sessions, SSO, SCIM, MCP server auth, API keys |
Ask which kit only when the user has not already named one.
Done when: the user has one kit: AgentKit or SaaSKit.
Step 3 — Name the next skill and stop
- AgentKit → name
setup-agentkit. Stop. - SaaSKit → name
setup-saaskit. Stop.
Tell the user the next skill name. Do not start that wizard here.
Done when: setup-agentkit or setup-saaskit is named, and this skill has stopped.
Fallback — native install
Use this only when Step 1 cannot run. Then apply the same check as Step 1.
Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add scalekit-inc/authstack
/plugin install agentkit@authstack
Use saaskit@authstack when the kit is SaaSKit.
GitHub Copilot
copilot plugin marketplace add scalekit-inc/authstack
copilot plugin install agentkit@authstack
Other agents
npx skills add scalekit-inc/authstack --all
--all puts the next named skill on disk, not only the two wizards.
Codex and Cursor go through npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup codex -y or npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup cursor -y.
