Connect AO with your agent
The exact copy-paste prompt from your dashboard — paste it into your AI agent and it sets up AgentOnboard automatically
Connect AO with your agent
Your dashboard ships with a ready-made prompt that connects your AI agent to AgentOnboard in one paste. This page reproduces that prompt exactly and explains what your agent does with it — so you can connect without hunting.
Where to find it
Sign in to ao.aawej.in, open Connect Agent from the dashboard sidebar, and click Copy prompt under the Copy this prompt card. Paste the result into your AI agent — Claude Code, opencode, or any agent that can run shell commands.
The prompt assumes you have an API key
The prompt starts with "I'm an AgentOnboard user and I have an API key." Create one first on the API Keys page of your dashboard — it is shown exactly once, so copy it before closing the dialog.
The prompt
This is the exact text the dashboard copies:
I'm an AgentOnboard user and I have an API key. Please:
1. Install the AgentOnboard skill: npx skills@latest add atpaawej/ao-skills
2. Check if the aon CLI is installed — if not, install it with npm install -g @agentonboard/cli
3. Guide me through saving my API key with aon save
4. Once setup is complete, you'll be able to discover and use AgentOnboard-compatible services on my behalfWhat your agent does with it
Pasting the prompt kicks off a three-step setup:
The agent installs the skill
Your agent runs npx skills@latest add atpaawej/ao-skills and gains full knowledge of the AgentOnboard ecosystem — the CLI, the session-token flow, and how to discover partner services.
The agent guides you through setup
Your agent checks whether aon is installed (installing it if not), helps you save your API key with aon save, and runs aon doctor to confirm everything works.
The agent discovers and uses services
Tell your agent which service to use. It looks up the AgentOnboard partner directory, reads the partner's documentation, and acts on your behalf — exchanging your key for a 5-minute session token on every call.
What you can do manually
The prompt is a convenience, not a requirement. Everything it does can be done by hand:
| Prompt step | Manual equivalent |
|---|---|
| Install the skill | Optional — the skill teaches the agent about AgentOnboard |
| Install the CLI | npm install -g @agentonboard/cli (or pnpm/yarn) |
| Save your API key | aon save <your-api-key> |
| Confirm setup | aon doctor |
