HuaweiCloud DevKit

中文 | English

Help AI coding agents use Huawei Cloud safely and accurately — a single integration that gives agents cloud knowledge, CLI tooling, and safety guardrails.

Supports OpenCode, Codex, CodeArts Agent, WorkBuddy, DeepSeek Harness (DSH), OfficeAce, Hermes, OpenClaw, and AtomCode.

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 22

China mainland users: If you experience slow downloads or connection issues with the default npm registry, configure the Huawei Cloud npm mirror:

Terminal

Copy

npm config set registry https://mirrors.huaweicloud.com/repository/npm/

Restore the default registry: npm config delete registry

Mirror lag: npm mirrors (npmmirror, mirrors.huaweicloud.com) may lag behind the official registry for hours after a new release. If install fails with ETARGET or you get an older version, install via the official registry instead:

Terminal

Copy

npx --yes --registry=https://registry.npmjs.org huaweicloud-devkit install --target <target>

Quick Start

If --target is omitted, the installer auto-detects agents on your machine:

• None detected: interactive terminals ask what you want (install to one explicit target / install to all / wire up a generic MCP agent); non-interactive shells error out with the supported target list.
• One detected: installs directly to it.
• Multiple detected: interactive terminals show a multi-select chooser; non-interactive shells error and point at --target <agent> / --target all. For a one-shot full setup, run npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target all (Codex is skipped when its CLI is missing).

The commands below are global (they act on every agent):

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit version  # print CLI version and installed plugin versions per agent
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target all --clean-global  # also remove KooCLI + OBS config

OpenCode

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target opencode

Restart the session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target opencode
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target opencode
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target opencode
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target opencode
rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx/  # Linux/macOS; Windows: rmdir /s /q %LOCALAPPDATA%\npm-cache\_npx

Codex

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target codex

Restart the Codex session after installation.

codex plugin list  # verify huaweicloud-devkit@huaweicloud-devkit is installed and enabled
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target codex
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target codex
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target codex
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target codex

Then mention @huaweicloud-devkit in Codex or describe your Huawei Cloud task directly.

Requires Codex CLI — the codex command must be in PATH. If Codex is installed via WindowsApps (Microsoft Store), use --target codex-desktop instead. Run codex --version to verify CLI availability.

Codex Desktop

Use this target when the Codex CLI is unavailable or when Codex is installed through WindowsApps on Windows.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target codex-desktop

Restart the Codex Desktop session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target codex-desktop
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target codex-desktop
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target codex-desktop
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target codex-desktop

Then mention @huaweicloud-devkit in a new Codex Desktop task or describe your Huawei Cloud task directly.

CodeArts Agent

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target codearts

Restart the session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target codearts
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target codearts
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target codearts
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target codearts

Sandbox mode: CodeArts defaults to sandbox mode which blocks KooCLI. install-hcloud detects this and shows how to resolve it — install KooCLI outside the sandbox terminal, or disable sandbox mode in CodeArts settings (Settings → Chats → Agents Terminal Command Running Mode → Auto Running).

CodeArts Work

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target codearts-work

Restart the session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target codearts-work
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target codearts-work
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target codearts-work
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target codearts-work

CodeArts Work (CodeArts Space, appId: com.codearts.work) uses user-level config at %USERPROFILE%\.codeartswork\. No project-level .codeartswork directory is created.

WorkBuddy

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target workbuddy

Restart the session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target workbuddy
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target workbuddy
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target workbuddy
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target workbuddy

DeepSeek Harness (DSH)

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target dsh

Restart the DSH session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target dsh
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target dsh
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target dsh
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target dsh

DSH V1 reuses the existing MCP server through @deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client. If the installer reports that the client is not detected, run: npx @deepseek-ai/dsh plugin --profile web add @deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client.

OfficeAce

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target officeace

Restart OfficeAce after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target officeace
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target officeace
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target officeace
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target officeace

Hermes

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target hermes

Restart the Hermes session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target hermes
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target hermes
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target hermes
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target hermes

Uninstall notes: On Linux, run rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx/* && npm cache clean --force after uninstall to ensure a clean slate. On Windows, close all Hermes sessions first to release file locks, then after uninstall check %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\config.yaml for YAML corruption and manually remove %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\huaweicloud-plugins if any files remain. Safety hooks: The installer configures Hermes shell hooks (config.yaml → hooks.pre_tool_call) to intercept unsafe terminal commands such as credential file reads, environment variable dumps, and unapproved hcloud write operations. Hermes shows a consent prompt the first time; approve it or set hooks_auto_accept: true in config.yaml to auto-accept. MCP Python SDK: The installer automatically installs the mcp Python package required by Hermes for MCP tool discovery. If you see [FAIL] Hermes MCP Python SDK in doctor, run pip3 install mcp manually. Windows: See docs/hermes-windows.md for known issues and workarounds.

OpenClaw

# Recommended (ClawHub)
openclaw plugins install clawhub:huaweicloud-devkit
openclaw plugins uninstall huaweicloud-devkit
openclaw plugins update huaweicloud-devkit

Restart OpenClaw after installation. If prompted for security risk acknowledgment, add --acknowledge-clawhub-risk.

# Or via npx
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target openclaw
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target openclaw
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target openclaw
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target openclaw
rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx/  # Linux/macOS; Windows: rmdir /s /q %LOCALAPPDATA%\npm-cache\_npx

AtomCode

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit install --target atomcode

Restart the AtomCode session after installation.

npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit doctor --target atomcode
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit status --target atomcode
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit update --target atomcode
npx --yes huaweicloud-devkit uninstall --target atomcode

Other Agents

Any agent that supports MCP can use the standard config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "huaweicloud-devkit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "-p", "huaweicloud-devkit", "huaweicloud-devkit-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

No installation required — npx handles everything.
