Setting Up the Dailybot Agent Skill
Dailybot gives your AI agents a voice
Agents connect your AI coding tools — Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and others, directly to your Dailybot workspace. Through a simple API or CLI, any AI assistant can submit progress reports, flag milestones, and tag human co-authors. Those reports automatically flow into the co-author's daily standups using AI, keeping the whole team aligned without manual updates.
Devs and managers get a dedicated dashboard with activity timelines, collaboration stats, and agent health monitoring. Humans can send messages and instructions back to agents from the web app, enabling real-time bidirectional communication between people and their AI tools.
Quick Setup (3 Steps)
Open your AI coding agent's chat or terminal and follow these steps:
Tell your agent to read the skill file:
Read https://api.dailybot.com/skill.md and install the Dailybot agent skill pack
Your agent will automatically clone the skill pack and install the CLI. No manual setup needed.
Then authenticate:
Authenticate with Dailybot using my email
The agent will start a login flow. You'll receive a verification code by email — just share the code when your agent asks for it.
And send a test report:
Report to Dailybot: "Setup complete"
Your first update will appear in the Agents dashboard. That's it — your agent is now connected and visible to the team.
Manual Skill Pack Installation
If you prefer to install the skill pack manually, run the appropriate command for your agent:
Agent | Command |
|---|---|
Claude Code |
|
Cursor |
|
GitHub Copilot |
|
Windsurf |
|
Cline |
|
Gemini CLI |
|
OpenAI Codex |
|
Then run the setup script:
cd <skill-path> && ./setup.sh
No Account Yet?
You can register a new organization directly from the CLI:
dailybot agent register --org-name "Your Org Name" --agent-name "your-agent-name"
This generates an API key and a claim URL to share with your team admin for connecting Slack, Teams, Discord, or Google Chat.
