1. Install the Appwrite plugin

The fastest way to get started with Appwrite in Claude Code is to install the Appwrite plugin from the official marketplace. The plugin includes agent skills for the CLI and all major SDKs and sets up MCP servers for both the Appwrite API and documentation, giving Claude Code everything it needs to work with your Appwrite projects.

To install the plugin, run the following command in your terminal:

claude plugin install appwrite@claude-plugins-official

Once installed, run Claude Code and configure the plugin:

• Run /plugins in Claude Code.
• Go to the Installed tab.
• Select the Appwrite plugin from the list.
• Choose Configure options.
• Enter your Appwrite endpoint, project ID, and API key when prompted.

After saving the configuration, run /reload-plugins to apply the changes to your current session. The appwrite-api MCP server will be ready alongside the agent skills, and Claude Code can now interact with your Appwrite project.
