Agent setup

One sentence sets upAPI up inside Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode or VS Code.

Copy this sentence into any AI coding agent. It fetches prompt.md, then connects the upAPI MCP server, installs the SDK and verifies both by itself:

Fetch and execute the appropriate instructions to set me up for upAPI from https://upapi.io/docs/agent-setup/prompt.md

Or follow the guide for your agent:

What the agent does

The sentence points the agent at prompt.md, a plain Markdown file written for agents. Following it, the agent:

finds your API key in the environment, or asks you for one once and stores it in a git-ignored .env;
connects the upAPI MCP server to itself, preferring the hosted server, which signs in through your browser;
installs the TypeScript SDK if the project has a package.json;
verifies the key and the MCP connection with two calls that cost zero units;
tells you what it did and what is left for you.

You are asked only for what an agent cannot do: a browser sign-in, or pasting a key.
