IDE Integration - Theo API Docs

Theo works inside every major agentic IDE through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This guide is a one-screen orientation — the canonical reference lives in the dedicated MCP Server section.

Quick Start

npm install -g @hitheo/sdk
export THEO_API_KEY=theo_sk_...
theo init

theo init automatically detects your IDEs and writes the correct MCP config. For hand-written config or per-IDE paths, see MCP / Install.

Available Tools

Once configured, your IDE agent has access to:

Tool	Description
`theo_complete`	General AI completion — auto-routes to best engine
`theo_code`	Code generation — Theo Code engine, long-form output
`theo_research`	Deep research with citations
`theo_image`	Image generation — Theo Create engine
`theo_document`	Document generation (PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, CSV)
`theo_skill_list`	Browse the skill marketplace
`theo_skill_install`	Install domain-specific skills
`theo_status`	Check health and engine availability

Full schemas and examples for each tool live in MCP / Tools; the three theo:// read-only resources are documented in MCP / Resources.
