Vibe Code Your Administration

Overview

The confident-client Agent Skill teaches your coding agent — Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex — how to drive the Admin SDK for you. Instead of writing SDK code by hand, you describe what you want ("create a project owned by alice@example.com") and the agent writes and runs the correct call.

A skill is just a SKILL.md file plus reference docs. It ships inside the confident-client repository — the same repo as the Python and TypeScript SDKs — so the guidance always matches the code.

Here's the flow you'll set up:

1. Install the Admin SDK

   The skill drives the confidentai Admin SDK — that's the package the agent actually runs. Install it in the environment your agent executes commands in, matching the language your project uses:

   PythonTypeScript

   pip install confidentai

2. Install the skill

   The skill lives in the confident-client repo. Install it via the Claude Code plugin, or with the Skills CLI for any other agent.

   Claude Code (plugin)Cursor, Codex, Windsurf & others (Skills CLI)

   Run these four commands in Claude Code:

   /plugin marketplace add confident-ai/confident-client
   /plugin install confident-client@confident-ai-plugins
   /reload-plugins
   /plugins

   The /plugins command should list confident-client under your installed plugins.

3. Set your Organization API Key

   Every management call needs an Organization API Key (e.g. confident_us_org_...). Retrieve yours, then export it in the terminal your agent runs commands in:

   export CONFIDENT_ORG_API_KEY="confident_us_org_..."

4. Create your first project

   Open your agent and describe the project you want. For example:

   Create a Confident AI project called "Customer Support Bot" and make alice@example.com the owner.

   The skill will:

   • Confirm which SDK language to use (Python or TypeScript) if your project isn't clearly one or the other.
   • Ask whether to assign an owner (the email must belong to an existing organization member).
   • Create the project and return its id plus a one-time project API key — the full secret is only shown at creation.

   Done ✅. You just created a project without writing a line of SDK code.

5. Invite members and assign roles

   Onboard your team the same way — with prompts:

   Invite alice@example.com and bob@example.com to my organization.

   The skill asks which role to grant invitees before sending (inviting requires a paid plan).

   Create an "Analyst" role with read-only access and assign it to bob@example.com.

   Roles are built from policies, which are built from permissions — the skill composes them in the right order for you. You can manage governance too:

   Assign our governance policy to all of my production projects.

6. Use your project API key

   The project API key from step 3 is what your application uses for tracing and evaluations. Paste it into the environment where your app runs:

   export CONFIDENT_API_KEY="confident_us_proj_..."

   That's the project-scoped key (CONFIDENT_API_KEY) — distinct from the CONFIDENT_ORG_API_KEY you used for administration. With it set, deepeval and the tracing SDKs send data to your new project.

   Done ✅. Your project is live and ready to receive traces and evals.

Next Steps

You installed the SDK and skill, created a project, onboarded members, and wired up a project key — all through prompts. To go deeper:
