Your network, readable by your agents.

kith is a private, version-controlled map of who you know and what they are good at. Store people as plain Markdown, then let AI agents suggest who could help with a project.

Set up kith View the spec

Plain Markdown. Your repo. Your data.

How it works

1. Capture

Add one Markdown file per person with roles, skills, context, and what you would ask them about.

2. Query

Use the CLI or MCP tools to find people for a skill, tool, domain, or plain-English need.

3. Plan

Agents append a People plan: suggested people, reasons, covered needs, and explicit gaps.

Setup

Get kith running in your own repository with Node 18+ and no runtime dependencies.

git clone https://github.com/buberlo/kith.git
cd kith
node bin/kith.mjs init
node bin/kith.mjs validate
node bin/kith.mjs staff "build and deploy a web app"

Existing files are kept as-is. Read the adopter guide

Agent integration

Expose the same local network to AI agents through MCP or the no-server kith skill.

MCP server

Run a read-only local server with tools for listing, finding, looking up, and staffing people.

npm run mcp

kith skill

Let an agent read people/ directly and append a People plan without running a server.
