Install CandleKeep
Pick how to connect your AI agent
Four ways to use CandleKeep — choose the one that fits how you already work. All paths share the same library, the same marketplace, and the same team.
Using Claude Desktop, Claude Cowork, or a chat agent with no terminal?
The curl … | sh command below is for the terminal CLI — it won't work inside a chat surface. Install the CandleKeep plugin instead: it bundles the skill, the four research subagents, and the connector, so one install covers everything. No shell required.
- Marketplace (recommended): in Claude, go to
Customize → Plugins → Add marketplaceand pasteCandleKeepAgents/candlekeep-marketplace, then install CandleKeep. - Plugin package (file install):
https://getcandlekeep.com/cowork-plugin.zip— upload it underPlugins, not underSkills. - MCP connector URL:
https://www.getcandlekeep.com/api/v1/mcp— only needed if you're wiring up your own client; the plugin includes it.
