rolecraft setup
One command. All agents. Skills + MCP servers. Zero configuration.
Detect every AI agent on your machine and install a skill — plus its MCP servers — to all of them at once.
Usage
rolecraft setup # detect agents only
rolecraft setup <source> # detect + install skill + MCP to all agents
rolecraft setup <source> --list # list skills without installing
rolecraft setup <source> --skill <names> # install specific skillsDescription
rolecraft setup is the onboarding command. It:
- Scans your system for all installed AI agent directories (opencode, cursor, claude-code, copilot, aider, etc.)
- When a source is provided: resolves the skill(s), installs to every detected agent, and sets up any MCP servers declared in
SKILL.md
For sources with multiple skills (e.g. mattpocock/skills), you'll be prompted to select which skills to install. Use --yes to install all, or --skill to pick specific ones.
This is the fastest way to go from zero to productive — one command configures every AI agent you use.
Options
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--yes, -y | Install all skills without prompt |
--dry-run | Preview without installing |
--list | List available skills without installing |
--skill <names> | Install specific skills by name (comma-separated) |

Install to all agents
rolecraft setup ./my-skill
rolecraft setup sametcelikbicak/task-decomposer
rolecraft setup npm:@org/agent-rulesInstalls the skill to every detected agent automatically. No need to specify --cursor, --claude, etc.
Multi-skill source
# Show skills in a multi-skill source without installing
rolecraft setup mattpocock/skills --list
# Install specific skills
rolecraft setup mattpocock/skills --skill "typescript-rules,react-rules"
# Install all with --yes
rolecraft setup mattpocock/skills -yWith MCP servers
If the skill's SKILL.md declares MCP servers:
mcp_servers:
- name: filesystem
source: npm:@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystemrolecraft setup ./my-skill installs both the skill and the MCP servers to all agents.
