What you can do with Starlight
Connect your coding agent to Starlight, plan installs and teams, research with sources, and run the same work from any harness.
starlightintelligence.ai/app/mcp/, Starlight-Intelligence-System/AGENTS.md, docs-platform/app/api/mcp/route.tsStarlight is a set of open, inspectable building blocks for people who work with coding agents. Your agent stays the runtime: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, Grok, or whichever harness you already use. Starlight gives it tools to call, plans to follow, and methods that hold up when the work matters.
Everything on this site is labelled with what is true today:
- Live means you can use it now.
- Plans only means it returns a plan and changes nothing on your machine or accounts.
- Preview means it runs in our repositories today and is documented before public package release.
Capabilities at a glance

|---|---|---|
Connect your agent (/mcp) | Live | Quickstart — add the public Starlight MCP endpoint or this docs platform's /api/mcp server with one command. |
| Research with sources (Atlas) | Live | Research with Atlas — search editorial drafts by keyword, domain, or lens with exact source revisions. |
| Work from any harness | Live | Work from any harness — headless and MCP connect commands verified across six coding agents. |
| Use Starlight from agent code | Live | From your agent code — Vercel AI SDK, Claude Agent SDK, and Vercel Eve integration snippets. |
| Plan a package install or team | Plans only | Plan an agent team and MCP tools reference — returns portable JSON plans without touching accounts. |
| Write tests, run them, fix failures | Preview | Build-fix loop — bounded test-run-fix loop with a guard against weakened assertions. |
Start here
- New to Starlight: connect your agent, then ask it to list the Starlight tools.
- Wondering what Starlight does and does not do on your behalf: read how Starlight works.
- Choosing between coding agents: work from any harness shows the same task in six of them.
- Building an agent or integration: the MCP tools and HTTP API references list every public interface and input schema.

Every page on this platform has a Markdown twin: append .md to any URL (for example /starlight/quickstart.md) or send Accept: text/markdown. The brand index is at /llms.txt, the full single-file bundle is at /llms-full.txt, and the interactive MCP server is live at /api/mcp.
