Wire ngguide into your agent.

One prompt, four agents. The course server runs over MCP — pedagogy state lives here, your agent does the talking.

01Quick install

In your terminal, make a folder for the course and wire the course server into your agent. Run both yourself — add-mcp is interactive, so an agent asked to run it fails:

terminalstep 1 · make a home, connect the server

mkdir angular-ui-kit && cd angular-ui-kit
npx add-mcp https://ng.guide/mcp/angular-ui-kit --name angular-ui-kit

a fresh, empty directory + one config write

Then start your agent in that folder and ask it to set the course up. Its first call opens a browser tab to authorize against your ngguide account — once per agent, then you're in. The instructions come from the course server itself: the agent calls setup_course, writes the teacher files, commits them, and opens the first lesson. You do not need a license to get this far: the opening lessons of the course are free, and the paywall lands when that free run ends. Confirm your license from your dashboard.
