AI Coding Assistants

The Crawlberg plugin lets your coding agent crawl and scrape the web without leaving the chat — ask it to pull a page as Markdown, map a site, or extract metadata, and it drives Crawlberg for you.

What the plugin does: it bundles the Crawlberg agent skills (site crawling, HTML→Markdown scraping, headless-Chrome fallback) and wires up the crawlberg MCP server, so any major coding agent can call the crawler directly.

The plugin shells out to the crawlberg CLI. Install it from the Installation guide (for example, brew install xberg-io/tap/crawlberg) before driving the crawler from an assistant.

The plugin, its per-platform manifests, and version history live in this repository’s self-hosted xberg-io/crawlberg marketplace.

Note

MCP-capable integrations register the crawlberg MCP server for you. Pi uses skills and CLI access instead. To configure or run that server standalone, see the MCP Server guide and the MCP reference.

Installing

Pick your harness below.

Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add xberg-io/crawlberg
/plugin install crawlberg@crawlberg

Codex CLI

/plugins add https://github.com/xberg-io/crawlberg

Then search for crawlberg and select Install Plugin.

Cursor

Settings → Plugins → Add from URL → https://github.com/xberg-io/crawlberg, then select crawlberg.

Gemini CLI

From a checkout of this repository:

gemini extensions install ./plugin

The manifest is inside plugin/. See the Gemini extension reference for local installation and updates.

Kimi installation and compatibility

From a checkout of this repository, install with the Python Kimi CLI version used for native plugin validation:

uvx --from kimi-cli==1.51.0 kimi plugin install ./plugin

Native plugin installation was validated with Python Kimi CLI 1.51.0. The replacement @moonshot-ai/kimi-code 2.1.1 does not provide a plugin CLI subcommand; its interactive plugin loading has not been verified. These results do not establish compatibility with newer Kimi releases.

Factory Droid

droid plugin marketplace add https://github.com/xberg-io/crawlberg
droid plugin install crawlberg@crawlberg

GitHub Copilot CLI

copilot plugin marketplace add https://github.com/xberg-io/crawlberg
copilot plugin install crawlberg@crawlberg

Pi

From a checkout of this repository:

pi install ./plugin

After the next plugin release, install the same package used by OpenCode:

pi install npm:@xberg-io/opencode-crawlberg

Pi loads the bundled skills and prompt templates. Use /crawlberg-scrape or /crawlberg-crawl with the input as arguments. Install the crawlberg CLI separately for shell access. This package does not register MCP servers, hooks, or native Pi extensions.

opencode

Add the package to opencode.json:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "plugin": ["@xberg-io/opencode-crawlberg"]
}

Runtime resources and prerequisites

The generated bundle targets Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Kimi, OpenCode, Factory Droid, Hermes, Pi, Agent Plugins and GitHub Copilot CLI. Use the plugin installation guide for the runtime’s installation method and configuration.

Runtime	Integration
Claude, Codex, Cursor, Factory	Native plugin manifests, skills and MCP configuration
Gemini CLI	Extension manifest, command templates and MCP configuration
Kimi	Plugin manifest and session instructions
OpenCode	npm adapter, instructions and MCP configuration
Hermes	Python plugin, explicitly selected skills and a local stdio MCP bridge
Pi	Skills and prompt templates; execute operations through the CLI
Agent Plugins, Copilot	Agent Plugins 1.0 manifest, skills and MCP configuration

Install the product CLI before using Hermes or Pi. Hermes starts the installed CLI directly; its wheel does not include the auto-installing launcher used by other MCP clients. Select list_tools through the product’s Hermes bridge to inspect the supported tools and request schemas. Select skills explicitly when needed; they are not appended automatically to every conversation.

From a checkout, install the generated Hermes package into Hermes’ Python environment:

pip install ./plugin/.hermes/package

Enable the plugin in Hermes configuration. Loading project plugins also requires HERMES_ENABLE_PROJECT_PLUGINS=true. After a release publishes the updated package, the registry install is pip install crawlberg-hermes-plugin.

Pi resources can be installed from the checkout with pi install ./plugin. After a plugin release includes them, install npm:@xberg-io/opencode-crawlberg through Pi. Pi does not register an MCP server, hooks or executable extensions from this package.

Standalone public skills

The public skills directory contains instructions you can install independently of the runtime plugin. Use the skills CLI to list and select them:

npx skills add xberg-io/crawlberg --list
npx skills add xberg-io/crawlberg

Choose the target agents interactively. For a local checkout, use npx skills add ./skills. This installs instructions; it does not install the product CLI, enable MCP, download models or set provider credentials.
