Recommended tools

A curated set of providers, MCP servers, and skills that work well with dux.

dux runs your real CLI in a real terminal, with no protocol layer in between. So whatever providers, MCP servers, and skills you already use keep working inside a dux agent exactly as they do in your shell. Everything below is hand-picked to genuinely pair well with a multi-agent dux workflow.

Tools

Extra tooling that makes your agents faster and sharper. The default providers ship bundled with dux, and any CLI can be added as one too (see Custom CLI Agents).

rtk

rtk-ai/rtk

58.8k

A CLI proxy that intercepts the commands your agents run and rewrites the output to use far fewer tokens, cutting consumption on common dev commands by 60-90%.

Superpowers

obra/superpowers

217.8k

More than a skill set: a framework of skills, hooks, and tooling, plus a development methodology, for agentic coding.

MCP servers

Model Context Protocol servers extend what an agent can reach: repositories, browsers, live docs, and more. Configure them in your CLI the way you normally would, and they work unchanged inside a dux agent.

Context7

upstash/context7

56.7k

Pulls up-to-date, version-accurate library docs into the agent's context.

Playwright MCP

microsoft/playwright-mcp

33.5k

Lets agents drive a real browser to navigate, click, and verify the UI.

Chrome DevTools MCP

ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp

42.8k

Gives agents Chrome DevTools to navigate, inspect, and debug pages, read the console, and watch the network. It can drive a browser you already have installed instead of downloading its own.

Network Debugging MCP

same dev as dux patrickdappollonio/mcp-netutils

DNS lookups, WHOIS, connectivity tests, TLS inspection, and HTTP endpoint checks, all from the agent.

Kubernetes Read-Only MCP

same dev as dux patrickdappollonio/mcp-kubernetes-ro

Read-only Kubernetes access: list resources, read details, and pull pod logs with no risk of mutating the cluster.

Skills

Skills are reusable instructions and workflows your CLI loads on demand (for example, Claude Code’s Agent Skills). Because dux launches the real CLI, your skills apply per agent and per worktree, exactly as they do elsewhere.
