Agent Plugin

Install the Indie-tier Frostbyte plugin so your AI agent reads, picks, and ships tasks alongside you.

The Frostbyte plugin connects your AI coding agent (Claude Code, Codex) directly to your Frostbyte projects. Your agent can read tasks, pick up tracked work, edit the code, and mark the task done, without you switching between terminal and browser.

The plugin requires Indie or higher. It doesn't consume AI credits to install or use, because your coding agent runs through your own Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or MCP-compatible client.

What it gives you

Once installed, your agent can:

  • List tasks: see what's queued in the active release.
  • Read tasks: pull the full description, agent context, subtasks, and blockers.
  • Update tasks: change status, type, area, release, priority.
  • Add decisions and blockers to tasks via activity entries.
  • Create new tasks from things discovered while coding ("found a bug in the auth flow, adding it to backlog").
  • Read the project structure: areas, releases, recent activity.

Instead of pasting task context into every chat, your agent reads the work from Frostbyte, asks clarifying questions, then writes the code.

With auto-tracking, you link a repo once with a committed .frostbyte.json. After that, new Claude Code or Codex sessions start with the right project context, and the agent keeps tasks current as it builds.

Installation

In Claude Code:

/plugin install frostbyte

In Codex:

codex plugin install frostbyte

The plugin asks for an API token on first use. Generate one in your Frostbyte settings on an Indie-or-higher plan, paste it once, and you're done.

What's underneath

The plugin is a thin wrapper around the MCP server. The plugin gives you the convenient install and auth flow; MCP is the underlying protocol. If you're using a different MCP-aware client, point it at the MCP server directly.

Privacy and data

The plugin only reads and writes data in projects you're a member of. Your agent never sees other users' projects. Bearer-token auth means revoking the token in settings instantly cuts off the agent's access. See API tokens.

The plugin doesn't transmit your codebase to Frostbyte. It sees your tasks; your code stays in the agent's local workspace as usual.

What's next

  • Generate the bearer token: API tokens.
  • Link your repo so sessions start with project context: Auto-tracking.
  • Connect a client other than Claude Code or Codex: MCP server.
