The official Croft agent plugin
One step to make any compatible AI agent a Croft builder — the tools and the know-how, on an open standard, secured with per-user sign-in.
Connecting an assistant to Croft has always been quick: paste one link, sign in, start building. Today it gets quicker — and smarter. We’ve published the official Croft agent plugin, a portable Agent Plugin 1.0.0 package that any compatible client can install in one step.
Most setups hand an agent some tools and hope it figures out the rest. This plugin gives it both halves:
- The tools — the Croft MCP server, so the agent can create apps, write files, deploy, manage connectors, and share data on your workspace.
- The know-how — skills that teach the agent Croft’s golden path: how to build and deploy, how to reach outside tools through connectors, and how to share data between apps. It follows your conventions from the very first message, instead of after a few wrong turns.
Two things make this more than a convenience. It’s an open standard — not tied to any one vendor, which is the same bring-your-own-AI, no-lock-in deal you get everywhere else in Croft. And it’s secure by default: no shared keys, no credentials in the package. On first connect the agent runs per-user OAuth 2.1 against your croft, so each person signs in as themselves and every request is scoped to their workspace and role.
The plugin is open source and MIT licensed, up on GitHub. If your agent client speaks Agent Plugin 1.0.0, point it at the repository and you’re building on Croft — tools, conventions, and sign-in, sorted.
