For AI coding agents

Onboard your agent to zipcodestack

Paste one line into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any coding agent. It reads our setup guide, gets you an API key, makes the first call and tells you what it set up.

Run curl -s https://zipcodestack.com/agents.md and follow it to set up zipcodestack for me in this project.

The links open your agent with the prompt filled in. Nothing runs until you press Enter.

Coding agents run on your computer. Open this page there to start yours in one click, or copy the prompt above.

How it works

  1. Paste

    Paste the line into your agent.

  2. Approve

    When it asks, sign up or approve its request: one click.

  3. Build

    Your agent makes the first call, and your dashboard turns green.

Pick your agent

The prompt works in every agent. Here are the one-click links where the tool has them, and the optional MCP server setup.

Start

Opens Claude Code with the prompt filled in. The link works once you have used Claude Code at least once; otherwise copy the prompt and paste it into claude.

On your computer, paste the prompt from the top of this page into claude.

MCP server optional

Lets Claude call zipcodestack directly. Run this in your project; the key stays in your local Claude Code settings, out of the repo.

claude mcp add --transport http zipcodestack https://api.zipcodestack.com/mcp --header "apikey: <your key>"

For the whole team, commit a .mcp.json instead. It holds only a reference to ZIPCODESTACK_KEY, which Claude Code reads from each developer's environment.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zipcodestack": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.zipcodestack.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "apikey": "${ZIPCODESTACK_KEY}" }
    }
  }
}

You stay in charge

Your key stays private

The guide tells your agent to keep the API key in .env: never in chat, logs, git or client-side code.

You decide what it costs

Your agent recommends a plan and asks you first. Nothing is charged until you confirm it yourself on app.zipcodestack.com.

One guide for every agent

Plain Markdown at zipcodestack.com/agents.md, maintained by us. Your agent can fetch it again at any time to check each step.
