Quickstart

From install to a shared agent in a few commands. Each one is copy-paste ready.

  1. Install the CLI

    Node 22+ required. Installs the `operon` binary globally.

  2. Sign in and onboard

    One command signs you in (device-code flow in the browser), detects which AI tools you use, picks a workspace, and runs your first mine.

  3. Mine your sessions

    Scan your Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor history for prompts you keep repeating. Operon clusters them into candidate operons you can review.

  4. Polish it (recommended)

    Turn the raw mined prompt into a clean, reusable SKILL.md before you share it. Uses your own Anthropic key — set `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` first. Skip it and you publish the raw draft.

  5. Publish one to your team

    Turn a candidate into a versioned operon and upload it to your workspace. Teammates can install it by name.

  6. Install a teammate's operon

    Pull a shared operon into Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. That's the whole loop — mine once, everyone installs.

From here: the command reference covers every flag, the MCP server wires Operon into your agent, and the agent skills let your agent drive the CLI for you.
