Resources for AI agents
Use this page as the starting point when you want an AI assistant to build on Base. It covers three ways to give an assistant Base context: static docs files, a live MCP connection, and installable skills. You’ll also find recommended entry points for common workflows.Quick setup
Get your agent connected to Base docs in one command. Pick the method that fits your tool.MCP server
A live connection lets your assistant search and read Base docs on demand, so it always has current information.Static docs files
Use these when you want to load context in a single fetch rather than maintaining a live connection.| File | What it contains | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
llms.txt | Page index with titles and descriptions | Discovering which docs exist before going deeper |
llms-full.txt | Complete documentation in one file | Giving an assistant broad context in one shot |

Skills
Skills are installable agent workflows for common Base tasks, including connecting to Base, deploying contracts, integrating Base Account, running a node, and more. They give your assistant step-by-step procedural guidance instead of requiring it to piece together docs on its own.Recommended starting points
Once your agent has docs context, point it at the section that matches what you’re building:| What you’re doing | Start here |
