AE Agent Platform Resource Management
Manage the Agent platform's models, MCP servers, Skills, automations, and attachment library through ae-cli, upgrading Agent configuration from manual web operations to precise command-line management.
Agent orchestration
multi-agentThe AE Agent Resource Management Skill is an Agent-platform resource-management capability in ThinkingAI's industry Skill library. It helps teams manage all Agent-platform resources through the ae-cli command-line tool, models (add/delete/enable-disable), MCP servers (add/delete/enable-disable), Skills (create/delete/enable-disable), automations (create scheduled/daily tasks), and the attachment library (upload/delete files), upgrading from configuring each item manually on the web to an efficient mode of precise batch management from the command line. This is ThinkingAI's decade of industry experience, packaged into ready-to-use Skills.

The problem
The Agent platform is the core infrastructure of AI automation, but over 50% of teams are inefficient at Agent resource configuration. Adding a custom model requires manually entering the base URL, API key, provider, and other parameters (one wrong parameter and the connection fails); adding an MCP server requires manually configuring the URL and transport type (the platform does not verify connectivity, so an unreachable URL is only discovered at runtime); creating a Skill requires hand-writing long instruction text (awkward to do in a web text box); and the schedule config for automations (daily/weekly/custom time) must also be set one by one. An even more common problem is difficult resource discovery: no one knows which models, MCPs, and Skills are currently enabled, requiring a trip through the web every time, and enable/disable operations must be clicked one by one. Attachment management is a total gap: the reports, charts, and data files an Agent generates are scattered locally and cannot be uploaded in one place to the Agent's attachment library for later reference.
What it does
When to use it
Adding a custom model (OpenAI/Anthropic/other provider) to the Agent platform
Adding an MCP server to extend the Agent's tool capabilities
Creating a custom Skill to configure the Agent's behavior rules
Creating a scheduled automation (daily AI report, periodic data analysis, etc.)
Uploading files to the Agent attachment library for later reference

FAQ
Can an MCP server be used right after it is added?
Not necessarily. The platform does not verify connectivity at creation, so a server with an unreachable URL is accepted but only errors at runtime. We recommend testing whether the URL is reachable after adding it.
Can company/system-scope resources be deleted?
No. The CLI only allows creating and deleting personal-scope resources. Company/system-scope models/MCPs/Skills can only be viewed and enabled/disabled (which affects only the current user's preference, not the global state).
What state is an automation in by default after creation?
Enabled by default. If you want to create it without enabling it immediately, pass --enabled false.
