README
Butterbase Skills
Claude Code plugin for Butterbase — the AI-Native Backend-as-a-Service.
This plugin gives Claude deep knowledge of Butterbase's 42+ MCP tools, guides you through common workflows, and auto-configures the MCP server connection.
Installation
claude plugin add @butterbase/skills
Setup
Sign-in is OAuth — no API key copy-paste needed.
-
Sign up at butterbase.ai.
-
Install the MCP server across every detected client with one command:
npx @butterbase/cli mcp installThis walks Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, JetBrains, Codex, Gemini CLI, and the rest, and prints per-client OAuth follow-up hints.
-
Trigger OAuth once per client. In Claude Code: restart, then run
/mcp(orclaude mcp login butterbase). The cli's output covers every other client.
The plugin auto-loads its skills and CLAUDE.md context as soon as Claude Code starts. All 42+ tools available immediately after consent.
