Overview

Connect your agent

1
Install the skill for your agent

In SKI, pick your agent and click install. One click each for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and OpenClaw. Windsurf is a manual install.

The skill is small and readable. It teaches the agent to check for what you said and to write back what it wants spoken.

2
Type ski in the session

Open your coding agent the way you always do and type ski. That is the whole command. It connects the running session to the widget.

3
Watch for the green dot

When the dot on the widget turns green, the agent is live and listening. That indicator is real-time, not polled, so a green dot means the agent is genuinely there.

4
Connect more projects

You are not limited to one. Connect several projects at once, even across different agents, and click the project name on the widget to switch between them. Each project answers in its own voice so you always know who is talking.

Nothing is injected#

SKI does not send keystrokes into your terminal and does not drive your editor. The widget and the agent exchange plain files inside your own project. Inspect them, delete them, or check them into git and see exactly what moved.

That design is why SKI works with any terminal, any editor, and any IDE without an integration for each one.
