Everything else.
Eight more AI coding tools we ship install prompts for. Each card copies a one-shot prompt you paste straight into the tool — it figures out the MCP config path itself. If your agent gets stuck, the fallback under each card has the manual steps.
Auto-install
Roo Code
A VS Code coding agent forked from Cline. Same MCP server shape, same auto-approve list.
Manual: install @work.books/cli globally; in
VS Code, open the Roo Code MCP settings file and add a
server named workbooks with command
workbook and args ["mcp","serve"].
Auto-install
Goose
Block's open-source local agent. Workbooks plugs in as a
Goose extension under ~/.config/goose/config.yaml.
Manual: install the CLI; under extensions: in
~/.config/goose/config.yaml add a stdio
extension that calls workbook mcp serve.
Auto-install
OpenHands
The open-source SWE agent (formerly OpenDevin). Add Workbooks to the runtime's MCP config and restart the worker.
Manual: install the CLI; register an MCP entry in
~/.openhands/config.toml; restart the OpenHands
runtime so the new tools surface.
Auto-install
Trae
ByteDance's AI-native IDE. MCP servers register through the tools panel in Trae's settings.
Manual: install the CLI; in Trae's Settings → MCP
panel add a server named workbooks with command
workbook and args [mcp, serve].
Auto-install
GitHub Copilot
Copilot's Agent mode supports MCP servers. Register Workbooks once and any repo Copilot drives can publish to Studio.
Manual: install the CLI; in VS Code, open Settings → Copilot → Agent → MCP servers and register Workbooks with the stdio command above.
Auto-install
Replit Agent
Replit's in-workspace agent. Install the CLI in your Repl's shell; the agent can then call out to it.
Manual: install the CLI inside your Repl's shell; consult the in-Repl Replit Agent docs for the current MCP server registration path (it has been moving around release-by-release).
Auto-install
Lovable
Lovable runs entirely in the browser. The Workbooks CLI runs
on your machine, so the loop is: Lovable generates the file,
you download it, you run workbook publish.
Manual: ask Lovable to generate a single-file HTML app with
a wb-permissions meta and a source-bundle script
tag; download the file; workbook publish it
locally to push it into your Studio group.
Auto-install
v0
Vercel's web-based code generator. Same shape as Lovable — generate locally, publish locally.
Manual: prompt v0 for a single-file HTML app with the
workbook source-bundle script tag; download; publish locally
with workbook publish.
