// cross-harness plugin manager for AI coding agents

Tome

One catalog, every coding agent.

Manage your skills, commands, agents & hooks in one place — then search and load them on demand, protecting the context window and cutting token spend, across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini & OpenCode.

§ 02 / Highlights

Why Tome

FEAT.01

Cross-harness management

Enable a plugin once; Tome serves it natively to every harness — hooks, agents, rules and all.

FEAT.02

Search & load on demand

Semantic search finds the right skill; the MCP server loads only what's needed. Protects context, cuts tokens, saves $$$.

FEAT.03

Workspaces

Per-project composition — different catalogs and plugins enabled per workspace, bound to your projects.

FEAT.04

Local & private

Runs on your machine. No telemetry; the index and models stay local.

§ 03 / Procedure

How it works

01

Add a catalog

Point Tome at a git repo of plugins. It clones, parses and indexes everything.

tome catalog add <repo>
02

Enable plugins

Turn on the plugins you want. Skills, commands, agents and hooks become available.

tome plugin enable <name>
03

Use any harness

Tome writes native config for each harness and serves search over MCP.

tome harness use cursor
