How to Set Up and Use CodingBuddy
CodingBuddy is an MCP server that orchestrates a team of 37 specialized AI agents — spanning architecture, frontend, backend, security, testing, accessibility, and more — to deliver code quality comparable to a cross-functional human engineering team. It implements a PLAN → ACT → EVAL → AUTO workflow so developers can plan a feature, implement it, and evaluate the result through a structured, multi-agent pipeline without switching tools. CodingBuddy works with Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other AI coding environments, and ships a real-time TUI dashboard for monitoring agent activity.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18 or higher installed
- npm or npx available on your PATH
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Claude Desktop
- A Claude API key if running with Claude models (the default model is claude-sonnet-4-20250514)
Install CodingBuddy globally
Install the package from npm so the codingbuddy CLI is available system-wide.
npm install -g codingbuddyInitialize a project configuration
Run the init command in your project root to create codingbuddy.config.json with language, verbosity, and model settings.
npx codingbuddy initConfigure the MCP server in your client
Add the CodingBuddy MCP server to your AI tool's configuration file so agents are available as MCP tools.
Start the server in MCP mode
Launch CodingBuddy in MCP stdio mode. Your client will invoke this automatically via the config, or you can test it manually.
npx codingbuddy mcp(Optional) Open the TUI dashboard
Monitor all agent activity, dispatches, and session impact reports in real time through the terminal UI.
npx codingbuddy tuiCodingBuddy Examples
Client configuration
Add CodingBuddy to your claude_desktop_config.json to start the multi-agent MCP server automatically.

- "PLAN: Design JWT authentication with refresh tokens and role-based access control"
- "ACT: Implement the payment processing module from the plan above"
- "EVAL: Review this code for security vulnerabilities and performance issues"
- "AUTO: Implement complete user profile feature end-to-end with tests"
- "EVAL: Audit this React component for accessibility and i18n compliance"Troubleshooting CodingBuddy
The codingbuddy command is not found after global install
Run 'npm bin -g' to find the global bin path, then add it to your shell PATH. Alternatively use npx codingbuddy mcp to run without a global install.
Agents respond in the wrong language or produce overly verbose output
Edit codingbuddy.config.json in your project root and set 'language' (e.g. 'en', 'ko', 'ja') and 'verbosity' (e.g. 'compact', 'standard', 'detailed') to match your preferences.
The MCP server mode exits immediately without accepting connections
Make sure you are not running codingbuddy mcp interactively in a terminal — it expects to communicate via stdin/stdout with an MCP client. Register it in your client's mcpServers config and let the client spawn the process.
