Atmos AI

Atmos integrates AI directly into infrastructure management, providing intelligent assistance for understanding configurations, analyzing stacks, troubleshooting issues, and automating workflows.

Experimental

atmos.yaml

ai:
enabled: true
default_provider: "anthropic"
providers:
anthropic:
model: "claude-sonnet-4-6"
api_key: !env "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"

shell

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-api-key"
atmos ai chat # Interactive chat
atmos ai ask "What stacks do we have?" # Single question
atmos ai exec "validate stacks" --format json # CI/CD automation
atmos ai sessions list # List sessions
atmos ai skill list # List installed skills

AI Configuration

Configure AI providers, models, API keys, skills, tools, sessions, and instructions in your atmos.yaml.

AI Assistants

Configure AI Assistants

Set up Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex, and other AI coding assistants to use Atmos agent skills.

Claude Code Integration

Claude Code Integration

Use Claude Code with the Atmos MCP server and create specialized atmos-expert subagents for deep infrastructure expertise.

Agent Skills

Atmos ships 21+ agent skills that give AI coding assistants deep knowledge of Atmos conventions. Skills follow the Agent Skills open standard and work across Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, and more.

Agent Skills Overview

How skills work, available skills, and the SKILL.md format.

Skill Marketplace

Install and share community skills from GitHub.

Skills Configuration

Configure skills in atmos.yaml.

MCP Server

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) server exposes Atmos AI tools to any compatible client -- Claude Desktop, Claude Code, VS Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and many others. This lets you use Atmos tools inside your preferred AI assistant without custom integrations.

MCP Setup

Configure MCP clients and manage tool permissions.
