# AI development tools for Inngest

Use Inngest with AI coding agents, MCP tools, CLI workflows, and LLM-ready documentation. These resources help agents write current Inngest code, work with local or deployed functions, trigger test events, inspect runs, and debug durable functions in one loop.

**"Inngest MCP"**: [Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other MCP clients to Inngest Cloud or your local Dev Server to inspect and operate functions and runs.]("/docs-markdown/ai-dev-tools/mcp?ref=docs-ai-dev-tools")

**"Agent Plugins and Skills"**: [Install Inngest plugins and portable skills so coding agents have current guidance for setup, durable functions, steps, flow control, realtime, and migrations.]("/docs-markdown/ai-dev-tools/agent-skills?ref=docs-ai-dev-tools")

**"CLI for Coding Agents"**: [Use the Inngest CLI from an agent session to start the Dev Server, trigger events, inspect runs, and keep local debugging grounded in real execution.]("/docs-markdown/ai-patterns/cli-for-coding-agents?ref=docs-ai-dev-tools")

**"LLM Docs"**: [Give AI tools compact or full-text documentation context with llms.txt and llms-full.txt.]("#llm-docs")

## How the tools fit together

- **Agent skills and plugins** teach your coding agent how to build with Inngest APIs and current patterns.
- **Inngest MCP** lets your agent inspect and operate deployed Cloud environments or your running local app.
- **The CLI** gives both you and your agent a terminal-first way to start local services and debug function runs.
- **LLM docs** provide crawlable markdown context for AI tools that need a compact table of contents or the full docs corpus.

For the best feedback loop, install the agent plugin or skills for your coding tool, connect it to the [Inngest MCP server](/docs-markdown/ai-dev-tools/mcp?ref=docs-ai-dev-tools), and use the local or Cloud endpoint that matches your task.

## LLM Docs

An LLM-friendly version of the Inngest docs is available in two formats:

- [inngest.com/llms.txt](https://www.inngest.com/llms.txt) - a table of contents for smaller context windows or tools that can crawl selected docs.
- [inngest.com/llms-full.txt](https://www.inngest.com/llms-full.txt) - the full docs in markdown format.

## Next steps

**"Local development"**: [Start the Dev Server and run Inngest functions locally with production-like execution semantics.]("/docs-markdown/local-development?ref=docs-ai-dev-tools")

**"TypeScript SDK v4"**: [Build with the latest TypeScript SDK, including checkpointing, realtime, middleware, and updated step APIs.]("/docs-markdown/reference/typescript/v4/intro?ref=docs-ai-dev-tools")
