Built for AI agents

Your agent already knows
how to drive it.

Point Claude Code, Codex, or any shell-capable harness at airbyte-agent and it works on the first try. No tool definitions to write, no wrapper to maintain.

  • Claude Code
  • Codex
  • Cursor
  • LangChain
  • CrewAI
  • any harness that runs commands

Ships with its own skill

The install script drops an agent skill next to the binary. Your harness learns the canonical command sequence before you finish reading this page.

$

npx skills add airbytehq/airbyte-agent-cli

No guessing at flags

Run schema before any operation and get the full parameter spec without an API call. Your agent composes a valid command on the first try instead of burning turns on trial and error.

$

airbyte-agent schema connectors execute

Errors worth parsing

Failures land as typed JSON on stderr. Your agent branches on auth_error, not_found, or rate_limited instead of regexing prose.

$

{"type":"not_found","message":"connector "gong" not found in workspace "default","retryable":false}

connectors create --json '{ ... }'

[step 02]

Discover

Inspect entities, actions, and schemas before you call anything.

cli
connectors describe --json '{ ... }'

[step 03]

Ask and Act

Search and read across systems, and write back to them too.

cli
connectors execute --json '{ ... }'

Talk to us

The Airbyte Agent CLI (airbyte-agent) is a Go command-line interface for Airbyte Agents. Use it from a terminal, script, CI job, or AI agent harness to add connectors, inspect schemas, and run read and write actions against 50+ business systems.

All three reach the same Context Store. The SDK is a typed Python library for custom agents, the MCP Gateway is one connection for clients like Claude and Cursor, and the CLI is the shell-first option for scripts, CI, and harnesses that run commands. It's also the non-Python alternative.

Run the install script (curl -fsSL https://airbyte.ai/install.sh | bash), use Homebrew (brew install airbytehq/tap/airbyte-agent-cli), or download the binary from GitHub releases. Then run airbyte-agent login.

You never do. Airbyte credentials live in a local settings file with 0600 permissions, and third-party credentials are entered in a browser widget so secrets stay out of shell history, logs, and agent transcripts.

Run the install script (curl -fsSL https://airbyte.ai/install.sh | bash), use Homebrew (brew install airbytehq/tap/airbyte-agent-cli), or download the binary from GitHub releases. Then run airbyte-agent login.

Give your agents a shell they can trust.

One line to install. Free tier, no credit card.
