  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 5 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by qodo-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Qodo Setup AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/qodo-ai/qodo-skills/tree/main/antigravity-plugins/qodo/skills/qodo-setup
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/qodo-ai/qodo-skills.git /tmp/qodo-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/qodo-skills/antigravity-plugins/qodo/skills/qodo-setup .claude/skills/qodo-setup
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Qodo Setup in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Qodo Setup on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Qodo Setup is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Set up Qodo

Description

Verify the available Qodo path. Skill installation does not prove account or tool access.

Prerequisites

A shell for CLI setup or a host-connected QAR MCP server. Never handle credentials.

Instructions

Connected MCP path

Inspect connected QAR tool schemas and annotations. With harmless input, call one read-only tool; catalog visibility does not prove read access. Check isError before structuredContent; an execution error is not readiness. A read cannot prove write authorization: report writes as unverified until a user-authorized action. Never make a test write. The host and QAR own MCP auth. Report missing tools, MT-AUTH-FORBIDDEN, and connection errors as MCP access issues; never ask for an API key. For MCP-only setup, report the verified scope and hand off here. Skip every CLI step below. Continue only if CLI access was requested or is needed for local collection, using the same deployment.

Resolve references/... links relative to this installed SKILL.md directory. Runtime/login setup does not authorize enterprise installation or maintenance. For requested enterprise installs, disclose packages and maintenance before approval; preserve opt-outs, edits, owners and optional-package choices.

1. Find or install the runtime

In PowerShell, resolve the verified native/Node invocation in runtime.md first; qodo below represents that invocation. On POSIX, probe PATH directly:

sh
qodo --version

If missing on POSIX, try "${QODO_HOME:-$HOME/.qodo}/bin/qodo" --version. For a missing, old or unparseable runtime, follow the reference. Setup requests cover installation subject to host approvals; plugin installation alone does not. Retain the selected deployment.

Keep the executable as <qodo>. Require Qodo CLI 2.0.0 or newer before authentication.

2. Connect

Run:

sh
<qodo> read whoami --json --skill qodo-setup --skill-version 1.0.12 --distribution marketplace --host antigravity

Reuse a successful identity check. On failure, read authentication.md before choosing login.

For Cloud, run <qodo> login when signed out. For customer deployments, preserve the documented login endpoint; never fall back to Cloud. Wait for login, then recheck identity.

Reuse the successful execution context, requesting each required host approval. A diagnostic approval is not blanket permission. Stop on cancellation or denied permission.

3. Verify tools

Only after identity succeeds, run:

sh
<qodo> tools --refresh --json --skill qodo-setup --skill-version 1.0.12 --distribution marketplace --host antigravity

Require a usable catalog and the task's capability; unrelated tools do not establish access. If refresh fails, report that sign-in succeeded but tools are unavailable, with the exact error and <qodo> tools --refresh as the retry. Do not log in again for a catalog failure.

Configuration

The CLI owns credentials, transport and runtime updates; the package's lifecycle owner updates skills. For QODO_NOTICE updates or repeated Kiro read approvals, read host-recovery.md only when encountered.

Error Handling

Give the actual error and one next action. Never report readiness after a failed identity, canceled login or unavailable catalog. Never disable the keychain, copy credentials, change host permission files, or offer unrestricted command approvals to make setup pass.

4. Hand off

Confirm Qodo connection and relevant tool readiness, then return to the authorized task. Readiness does not prove a later tool call succeeds. Do not install optional Standards.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Qodo Setup AI skill do?

Set up Qodo in a coding agent — install the CLI, sign in, and verify tools. Use after plugin installation, on setup requests, or when a Qodo skill finds a missing CLI or login.

Why use Qodo Setup on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Qodo Setup is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Qodo Setup in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/qodo-ai/qodo-skills/tree/main/antigravity-plugins/qodo/skills/qodo-setup. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Qodo Setup?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Qodo Setup?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Qodo Setup with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Qodo Setup AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by qodo-ai under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
