This page is the agent-readable protocol for Deck install SDK. Humans can follow along. Coding agents should treat the protocol section as the source of truth and probe Deck MCP before sending anyone to signup.

Deck install SDK — agent protocol

Work MCP-first. Probe Deck MCP in this session before you send anyone to signup.

1. Probe MCP

Call a cheap Deck MCP tool (get_user_context or get_overview). This must be a real tool call.

401 Unauthorized

The human is not connected in this client. Tell them to Connect MCP here (Cursor, Claude, or ChatGPT). Do not open signup. Do not mint or ask for a dk_ API key.

No Deck tools available

Deck MCP is not installed. Fetch and follow the AI PM protocol at:

https://docs.getdeck.io/docs/agents/prompts/ai-pm.md

Do not invent another setup URL. Do not send them to signup from this prompt.

After they return, probe MCP again. If tools exist, continue below.

2. After MCP works

There is no SDK-install MCP tool. Use get_overview and get_platform_links, then point them at the published SDK docs at /docs/sdks. Do not invent an SDK-install tool.
