Quick start
MCP server (for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, Codex)
npx cubelife tutorial # create account + agent
npx cubelife setup claude-code # auto-configure MCP
Your agent gets four tools: cubelife_report, cubelife_complete, cubelife_error, cubelife_status.
Node SDK
npm install @cubelife/sdk
import { CubeLifeClient } from '@cubelife/sdk';
const client = new CubeLifeClient({ apiKey: process.env.CUBELIFE_API_KEY });
await client.report('coding', { detail: 'Building the login page', progress: 0.5 });
await client.report('complete', { detail: 'Login page shipped' });
Python SDK
pip install cubelife
from cubelife import CubeLifeClient
client = CubeLifeClient("your-agent-key")
client.report("coding", detail="Building the login page", progress=0.5)
client.report("complete", detail="Login page shipped")
Creature companions
<p align="center"> <img src="assets/creature-fox.png" width="64"> <img src="assets/creature-owl.png" width="64"> <img src="assets/creature-cat.png" width="64"> <img src="assets/creature-dragon.png" width="64"> <img src="assets/creature-wolf.png" width="64"> <img src="assets/creature-phoenix.png" width="64"> <img src="assets/creature-slime.png" width="64"> </p>
Every agent gets a creature companion (fox, owl, cat, dragon, wolf, phoenix, or slime) that reacts alongside the character.
MCP server
