How to Set Up and Use Kilo Marketplace
Kilo Marketplace is a curated registry of Skills, MCP Servers, and Modes designed to extend AI agent capabilities across the Kilo ecosystem, including the Kilo Code VS Code extension and Kilo CLI. Skills teach agents modular domain-specific workflows, MCP Servers connect agents to external tools and APIs via the Model Context Protocol, and Modes configure agent identity, available tools, and file-access restrictions. Developers use the marketplace to discover, share, and install community-built extensions for their AI coding workflows without writing integration code from scratch.
Prerequisites
- Kilo Code VS Code extension or Kilo CLI installed
- Node.js 18+ for running MCP servers listed in the marketplace
- An MCP-compatible AI client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
- A GitHub account if you want to contribute custom Skills or Modes
Install the Kilo Code VS Code extension
Open VS Code, go to the Extensions panel, and search for 'Kilo Code'. Install it to gain access to the marketplace browser and Kilo CLI integration.
Browse available Skills, MCP Servers, and Modes
Open the Kilo Code panel in VS Code and navigate to the Marketplace tab. Resources are organized into Skills (domain workflows), MCP Servers (external tool connectors), and Modes (agent configuration presets).
Install a marketplace MCP server
Click 'Install' on any listed MCP Server. Kilo Code will write the entry into your MCP configuration automatically. For manual installation, clone the marketplace repo and copy the desired server config.
git clone https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace.gitActivate a Mode for your project
Modes define the agent's role, allowed tools, and file restrictions. Select a Mode from the marketplace (e.g. 'Documentation Writer' or 'Security Reviewer') to restrict the agent to relevant capabilities.
Contribute a custom Skill or Mode
Fork the kilo-marketplace repository, add your Skill YAML or Mode JSON under the appropriate directory following the Agent Skills spec, and open a pull request. Community-reviewed submissions are merged and become discoverable in the marketplace.
git fork https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace.git
# Add your skill under skills/ or mode under modes/
git commit -m "add: my-custom-skill"
git push && gh pr createKilo Marketplace Examples

Installed MCP server does not appear in the Kilo Code panel after installation
Restart VS Code after installation. The extension reads MCP configuration on startup. Verify the entry was added to your MCP config file at ~/.kilo/mcp.json or the project-local .kilo/mcp.json.
npx kilo-marketplace command not found
Ensure Node.js 18+ is installed and that your npm global bin directory is on PATH. Run 'npm install -g kilo-marketplace' as a fallback, then retry 'npx kilo-marketplace'.
Custom Skill is not recognized after adding it to the marketplace repo
Validate your YAML against the Agent Skills spec (check the marketplace README for the schema link). Skills must include required fields: name, description, and steps. Run the marketplace lint script if available.
