Install BugBug's skills and hosted MCP connection into your AI client with the BugBug CLI:
Choose exactly one supported client: cursor, claude, vscode, codex, or
copilot. Use --dry-run to preview the installation.
The installer does not accept --token. The AI client you select completes its
own MCP OAuth sign-in after installation. The plugin connects to the production
endpoint at https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp.
Skills provide safe workflow guidance; MCP supplies the live BugBug data and actions. Changes to BugBug resources require the user's explicit authorization.
Skills are available on all BugBug plans. MCP access requires Pro or higher.
