Get it for macOS

Show which MCP servers and skills each BB machine actually has, then bring them to one catalogue and one canon. A matrix marks present, missing, and drifted configs; new servers wait for adopt, keep-local, or hide. Sync adds what is missing and never deletes on its own. The Skills tab treats ~/.agents/skills as a git canon, with fan-out into CLI homes and a version archive. Writes back up each config first; loopback paths and local secrets stay on that machine. Optional MetaMCP listing needs that gateway's API key.


Overview

Show which MCP servers and skills sit on each BB machine, then fold them into one catalogue and one skills canon.

What you get

  • A page with enrolled machines on the left and a server-by-machine matrix on the right. Cells mark present, missing, drifted, or unmanaged.
  • New servers wait in a queue: adopt everywhere, keep on one machine, or hide from suggestions.
  • Sync adds what the catalogue expects and never deletes on its own. Removal is a separate confirmed action.
  • A Skills tab for the ~/.agents/skills canon: git sync between machines, fan-out into CLI homes, and a version archive before replace or delete.
  • CLI bb tools for the same catalogue, plan, sync, and skills operations.

Supported CLIs include Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Antigravity, Gemini, Qwen, Kimi, Grok, Crush, and a local MetaMCP gateway. Other CLIs still appear in the inventory.

How it works

Every write leaves a *.bak-bb-mcp-* copy next to the config (last five kept) and uses an atomic rename. Files with comments are read but not rewritten. Machine-specific servers (absolute binary path, loopback address, local secret reference) stay local and are not fanned out.

The skills canon is the only tree that travels between machines. Claude and Qwen homes get symlinks; Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode read the canon themselves; Gemini's unused skills folder is cleared; BB's own ~/.bb/skills registry is not overwritten.

Hourly sweep, canon git-sync, and home fan-out stay off until you enable them. Buttons and CLI commands always work.

Requirements

BB 0.43 or later on macOS or Linux, with at least one enrolled machine. Optional: a git remote for ~/.agents/skills, and a MetaMCP API key if you want the gateway listing. The plugin writes agent config files on those machines; it does not publish pages or change MetaMCP membership.

CLI AgentsStart each chat with a specialist agent or selected profile instructions. Choose native Claude Code and OpenCode agents, or Codex profile developer instructions (up to 4096 characters; other profile settings are not applied), on local or enrolled remote machines. Requires BB 0.43.x on macOS or Linux and an installed, authenticated supported CLI; provider subscription limits or API charges apply.2Env CatalogStore API keys, tokens, and secrets in a single encrypted catalog across all BB sessions and machines. Securely request credentials via masked in-app modals. Agents automatically check available credentials before prompting you, and persist newly provided keys on demand. Values are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and synchronized via your central BB server. Includes dedicated agent tools, a full-featured management UI with .env import/export, and terminal CLI commands.16File GatewayBrowse files across your BB machines and FTP/SFTP website accounts, then add a native file mention to a chat so the agent opens the correct source and path. Read text or download files without exposing account passwords to agents. Requires connected BB machines or reachable website accounts; macOS/Linux, read-only website access, 256 MiB between BB hosts and 32 MiB from websites. English interface with drag-to-chat mentions, hidden-file controls and native file preview.6Markdown PROEdit agent-written Markdown as a formatted document, and send any passage to the chat with its file path and line numbers. Callouts, collapsible details, footnotes, raw HTML and YAML properties render in place and save back unchanged, so opening a file never rewrites it. Mermaid flowcharts are edited by right-click (add a block or a yes/no branch, change a shape, delete), and LaTeX, code highlighting for 37 languages and directory trees render alongside. Files open from the machine and folder of the thread they came from, and autosave stops instead of overwriting a change an agent made underneath you. Adds a markdown-pro agent skill and a close-others and pin menu on the side-panel tabs; needs BB 0.43 or later and no account or external service.22
