Description
copilotkit-setup is an agent skill from the CopilotKit project's skills collection, listed on skills.sh. It guides the addition of CopilotKit to an existing project, or the bootstrap of a new CopilotKit project from scratch. It covers framework detection, package installation and the rest of the setup. Before it starts, it checks the environment: Node.js 18 or later, since the runtime uses fetch globals; an AI provider API key, from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google; a React-based frontend, which can be Next.js with the App Router or Pages Router, Vite with React, or Angular; and a backend that can run the runtime, either the same Next.js app through API routes or a standalone Express or Hono server. The skill includes the copilotkit-docs MCP server, which Claude Code configures automatically. It is for developers who want a working CopilotKit chat or agent feature in a new or existing app and need the right packages and structure from the start. Users should confirm the prerequisites before running the setup.…
