Set up the Creatio AI app development toolkit

Level: intermediate
note

The Creatio AI app development toolkit is available starting with Creatio release 8.3.4 and is compatible with versions 8.3.0 and later. If you have any feedback, contact us at: beta@creatio.com. All feedback is appreciated.

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 verifies the required tools on your computer, prepares a local toolkit workspace, and opens it in your preferred coding tool, giving you a ready-to-use environment for building applications with coding agents on the Creatio platform.

Setting up the toolkit requires completing the following prerequisites:

  • Install .NET 10 SDK and Clio on your computer.
  • Prepare the toolkit instruction that will be used by your coding agent.
  • Install a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, or GitHub Copilot) if not already available.
  • Open the coding agent from the folder that contains the prepared instructions.

Before you begin, download and unpack the Creatio AI app development toolkit installer — it guides you through all required steps, verifies dependencies, and prepares or updates your local workspace. Download the installer for your operating system:

Setting up the toolkit consists of the following steps:

  1. Check required tools — verifies that .NET 10 SDK and Clio are installed and up to date.
  2. Prepare or update workspace — creates a new local toolkit workspace or updates an existing workspace.
  3. Completion — opens the prepared workspace in Codex, VS Code, or Terminal.

Launch the setup wizard​

  1. Run the "Creatio AI App Development Toolkit.exe" file from the folder where the installer was unpacked. The Creatio AI App Development Toolkit Setup Wizard main page opens and lists the setup steps.
  2. Click Start setup.

Check the required tools​

  1. Click Run required check on the Required tools step. The wizard scans the computer and displays the status of each required tool: .NET 10 SDK and Clio.

  2. 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    • If the status is "Outdated," click the Update button next to the tool to install the latest available version.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.

  3. Click Continue.

Prepare or update the workspace​

  1. Review the workspace path displayed under Existing toolkit workspace found on the Prepare or update step.
  2. Click Change folder and select a different folder if needed.
  3. Click Update workspace. The wizard prepares the selected folder as the toolkit workspace and advances to the next step.

Open the workspace in a coding tool​

On the Completion step, the wizard checks whether Codex, VS Code, and Terminal are available on the computer. Tools that are not detected display Install or Open download page buttons.

  1. Open the workspace in one of the following coding tools:

    • Click Open in Codex to open the workspace in Codex.
    • Click Open in VS Code to open the workspace in VS Code.
    • Click Open in Terminal to open the workspace in the command-line interface.

  2. Click Copy path in the Copy workspace path block to copy the workspace path for use elsewhere.

As a result, the selected coding tool will be launched with the prepared toolkit workspace loaded as the active project folder. The workspace is ready for application development with coding agents on the Creatio platform.
