Set up the Creatio AI app development toolkit

Level: intermediate

The Creatio AI app development toolkit is configured using the Setup Wizard — a guided installer that prepares your local environment for working with coding agents. The Setup Wizard installs any missing required tools automatically. For best results, run the installer with administrator rights to ensure all tools are installed correctly.

Before you begin, download the Creatio AI app development toolkit installer for your operating system: Windows or macOS.

Setting up the toolkit consists of the following steps:

  1. Detect coding agents — checks which supported coding agents are installed. Read more >>>
  2. Check required tools — verifies that .NET 10 SDK, Python 3, Git, Clio, and Code agent CLI are installed and up to date. Read more >>>
  3. Install plugin — downloads and installs the toolkit plugin for your coding agents. Read more >>>
  4. Launch agent — opens the toolkit in your coding agent. Read more >>>

Launch the Setup Wizard

Run the "Creatio AI App Development Toolkit.exe" file from the folder where the installer was unpacked with administrator rights. The Creatio AI Toolkit Setup main page opens and lists the four setup steps.

Detect coding agents

On the Detect coding agents step, the wizard scans the computer and displays the status of each supported coding agent: Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Codex.

  1. Review the status of each agent and complete the matching action:

    • If the status is "Installed," no action is required.
    • If the status is "Not installed," click the Install button next to the agent to install it.

    You need at least one coding agent installed to continue the toolkit installation. You can click the Check again button at any time to re-run the detection after installing an agent.

  1. Click Continue.

Check required tools

On the Check required tools step, the wizard scans the computer and displays the status of each required tool: .NET 10 SDK, Clio, Python 3, Git, and Code agent CLI.

Review the status of each tool and complete the matching action:

  • If the status is "Installed," no action is required.
  • If the status is "Outdated," click the Update button next to the tool to install the latest available version.
  • If the tool is missing, install the tool before continuing.

You can click the Check again button at any time to re-run the check after installing or updating a tool.

Install plugin

On the Install plugin step, the wizard downloads the latest version of the toolkit plugin and skills and registers them for your coding agents.

Click Install plugin. The wizard installs the toolkit plugin for all detected coding agents automatically.

For coding agents not supported by the wizard, install the plugin manually. Learn more: Creatio AI app development toolkit on GitHub. If needed, ask your coding agent to help you with the installation.

You can click the Check again button at any time to re-run the installation check.

Launch agent

On the Launch agent step, the wizard shows all detected coding agents ready to use with the toolkit.

Click Open next to your preferred coding agent to start a session with the installed toolkit skills loaded.

note

If your security policy does not allow sharing environment credentials with an LLM, connect to the Creatio environment directly through Clio before starting work. In this case, the agent will use the existing Clio connection and you do not need to provide credentials in the prompt. Learn more: Set up Creatio instance for working with Clio (vendor documentation).

As a result, the coding agent launches with the toolkit skills loaded and is ready for application development on the Creatio platform. To start, mention the Creatio-app-orchestrator skill in your agent chat.
