← The three ways to use DataTug with AI
Skills plugin
Give your coding agent DataTug skills.
The plugin teaches a coding agent how to use the datatug CLI. Add the marketplace once, install the plugin, then ask in plain words.
Skills plugin for coding agentsAvailable
First, the CLI. The skills run it.
Every skill calls the datatug CLI, so it has to be installed and on your PATH before the skills can do anything.
Check that it is there:
datatug --helpInstall the plugin in Claude Code.
Run these two commands inside Claude Code. Nothing else to configure.
Add the marketplace
Once per machine. It tells Claude Code where DataTug's plugin lives.
/plugin marketplace add sneat-co/ai-marketplaceInstall the plugin
The DataTug skills are then available in any Claude Code session.
/plugin install datatug@sneat-coCheck that it works
Ask your agent:
List my DataTug projects.It uses the projects skill to list the DataTug projects registered on this machine. An empty list only means none are registered yet.
No CLI yet? Run /datatug:datatug-install in Claude Code. It shows how to install the CLI for your system and never runs the installer itself.
Which agents it works with.
Claude Code today. The others are not ready.
Claude CodeAvailable
Install it with the two commands above.
CodexPlanned
Not installable from this marketplace yet. The plugin repository has a Codex manifest that has not been tested, and the marketplace's Codex catalog does not list DataTug.
CursorPlanned
Not installable from this marketplace yet. The plugin repository has a manifest Cursor can read, which has not been tested in Cursor.
What your agent can do with it.
One skill for each part of the CLI the plugin covers. Each says whether it works today: the skills are only as ready as the CLI commands behind them.
/datatug:datatug-installAvailableShows how to install the datatug CLI when it is missing. It never runs the installer.
/datatug:datatug-initAvailableCreates a new DataTug project in a folder you choose.
/datatug:datatug-projectsAvailableLists the DataTug projects registered on this machine, and registers one you already have.
/datatug:datatug-scanAvailableReads a database's structure (tables, columns, keys) into a project, so the schema can be versioned.
/datatug:datatug-validateAvailableChecks that a project is well-formed, before you commit or in CI.
/datatug:datatug-serveAvailableStarts the local DataTug server that the web app connects to.
/datatug:datatug-datasetsIn developmentLists a project's datasets, shows a dataset's definition and prints its rows.
The CLI commands behind it cannot be told which project to use yet, so they stop with an error. Do not rely on it.
/datatug:datatug-queriesIn developmentLists and runs a project's saved queries.
datatug queriesis not implemented in the CLI yet. Saved queries run today withdatatug query run, which no skill covers./datatug:datatug-query-builderPlannedBuilds a read-only query with you in conversation, while the query shows live in the DataTug web app.
It drives an MCP endpoint of
datatug serve. The skill is written; the server it talks to is not built yet. Depends on: MCP server.
