Use these docs from your agent

Let your coding agent read these docs through llms.txt or any page as Markdown, and teach it Hivemind with the hive skills.

Your coding agent can read these docs and drive Hivemind for you. Point it at them once, and it looks things up instead of guessing.

Paste this into your coding agent so it reads the Hivemind docs whenever it needs them.

Show the prompt
Remember where the Hivemind documentation is, so you read it instead of guessing.

1. Fetch https://hivemind.griiken.com/guide/llms.txt. It lists every page with a one-line description, and each page's address as Markdown.
2. Add a short note to this project's agent instructions (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, or what this agent reads): "Hivemind docs: https://hivemind.griiken.com/guide/llms.txt. Read the page you need as Markdown before using a hive command."
3. Check: find the page about installing Hivemind in that list, read it as Markdown, and tell me the install command for this computer.

If writing the instructions file needs a choice only I can make, ask me and wait.

Give it the docs as text

FileHolds
/guide/llms.txtevery page, each with its one-line description and its address as Markdown
/guide/llms-full.txtevery page in one Markdown file

To get one page as Markdown, add .md to its address, as in https://hivemind.griiken.com/guide/install.md, or press Copy page at the top of the page. Open beside it shows the Markdown, or hands the page to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Scira AI.

Check: ask your agent "How do I install Hivemind?" It answers with the install command from these docs.

Teach it Hivemind with the hive skills

To let an agent work in Hivemind on its own, add the hive skills to your project.

cd ~/my-project && hive add skill

Check: .claude/skills/ now holds hive-work, hive-workflow, hivemind and hive-browser. An agent that reads skills learns to pick up issues and to start and coordinate other agents with hive ctl.

Use the prompt on each page

A page that describes something you set up or do starts with a prompt. Paste it into Claude Code, Codex or any coding agent, and it does the job on your computer. Each prompt says what to check at the end. It asks you for anything only you can do, such as a password, a sudo or a DNS record. Each one ends with a REFERENCE line: the page as Markdown, for the agent to read.

Rules for agents that read these docs

  • Prefer hive ctl … --json, and check hive <command> --help before using a flag.
  • Never ask a person for a token's value. Tell them to make one in Settings → API access.
  • Use the smallest role that does the job.
  • Ask the person before installing anything, and never type a password.
