Claude Code

claude plugin marketplace add oratis/TakoAPIclaude plugin install takoapi@takoapi…or use the universal command above — it covers Claude Code too.
Writes
~/.claude/skills/takoapi/SKILL.md
How to use
Loads automatically — just ask Claude to find an agent on TakoAPI.
MCP server — hosted tools, nothing to install
claude mcp add --transport http takoapi https://takoapi.com/mcpOne command. Add --header "Authorization: Bearer $TAKO_KEY" to enable invoke_agent.
Adds tools: search_agents, get_agent, search_skills, invoke_agent.
Uninstall
curl -fsSL https://takoapi.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --uninstallRemoves only TakoAPI's own files — it never touches your other agent config.
What the installer does
- Writes a single, namespaced TakoAPI skill into each agent's own skills directory — it never edits your shared config files.
- Teaches your agent to call the TakoAPI registry and gateway over HTTP — no extra dependencies, no server to run.
- Prefer hosted tools? Register the TakoAPI MCP server instead —
claude mcp add --transport http takoapi https://takoapi.com/mcp— exposingsearch_agents,get_agent,search_skills, andinvoke_agentas native MCP tools. - Is idempotent (safe to re-run) and fully reversible with
--uninstall. - For the metered gateway, create an API key in your dashboard and export it as
TAKO_KEY.
On Windows or already in Node? Use npx takoapi-install. Prefer to read the script first? It's plain shell at takoapi.com/install.sh.
