For agents

Codex

Install the Codex Skill Pack for always-on local doctrine context, then register the MCP server for live retrieval.

Install the skill pack

Download `codex-skill-pack.zip` and unzip it at project root or home directory. It installs into `.agents/skills/agentic-design-blueprint/SKILL.md`, the path Codex loads automatically for skills. Use `curl -L -o /tmp/codex-skill-pack.zip https://aidesignblueprint.com/agent-assets/codex-skill-pack.zip && unzip -o /tmp/codex-skill-pack.zip -d .` for project-local install.

Register the MCP server

Use `codex mcp add aidesignblueprint --url https://aidesignblueprint.com/mcp` in the Codex CLI, or copy the TOML snippet into `~/.codex/config.toml`. The MCP server adds live retrieval on top of the local skill, use `principles.search()` and `examples.search()` when the slug is unknown.

Keep local exports as fallback

Keep `agentic-design-blueprint.json` or `agentic-design-blueprint.md` as a readable fallback when MCP is unavailable. Add `AGENTS.md` only if you want the same cross-tool doctrine file readable by other repo-aware clients.

Codex

Skill pack + MCP + local exports

Install the skill pack first: unzip into project root or home → `.agents/skills/agentic-design-blueprint/SKILL.md`. Then register the MCP server with `codex mcp add` and keep a local JSON export as the offline fallback.

CLI command

codex mcp add aidesignblueprint --url https://aidesignblueprint.com/mcp

Alternate TOML config

[mcp_servers.aidesignblueprint]
url = "https://aidesignblueprint.com/mcp"

Kickoff prompt

Configure the blueprint as an HTTP MCP server and keep the local JSON as fallback. Start with principles.list, then search examples for visibility, orchestration, or steering based on the task.
