Connect Muse Code to Busabase
Meta's coding agent for large repos — plans changes, writes code, and validates results, fanning out to parallel sub-agents in isolated worktrees for big jobs. Runs from a CLI, powered by the Muse Spark model.

Give your agent this one instruction
You end up with more than a connector: the busabase skill carries the whole change-request workflow, the CLI, and the full API — available in every future session without re-pasting anything.
Asks first
Busabase Cloud or Personal Desktop — your call, before anything happens.
Connects
Signs you in and stores the credential itself. No API key to copy by hand.
Seeds a Base
Creates and fills your first Base, so the workspace is not an empty screen.
Installs the skills
busabase and busabase-app-creator become permanent, for every session after this.
For this agent
Muse Code reads project skills from `.agents/skills/<skill-id>/SKILL.md` — the exact path this repo already uses — and ships `muse skills import --from claude` to pull in Claude-format skills directly. Approve the install script and the browser sign-in prompt; there is no documented command that imports SETUP_SKILL.md specifically, so read it as an instruction rather than expecting a dedicated import step.
Prefer a connector?
If you would rather wire Busabase in as MCP tools than let the agent install a skill, use the server URL below.

irm https://dev.meta.ai/install.ps1 | iex # WindowsAdd Busabase to ~/.config/muse/settings.json (create the file if it does not exist — Muse Code applies defaults when it is missing):
{
"schema_version": 1,
"mcp_servers": {
"busabase": {
"transport": "streamable_http",
"url": "https://busabase.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}
Run muse mcp login busabase to complete the OAuth 2.1 sign-in in the browser (or headless, for CI). Muse Code registers a dynamic OAuth client automatically — you do not need a static client id or secret. Token storage and refresh are handled for you.
Ask the agent to call auth_verify to confirm the connection.

Known gotchas
MCP support is not mentioned on the public product pages (ai.meta.com/muse, dev.meta.ai/products/muse-code) — it only surfaces on the docs' Extending page. Muse Code requires signing in (browser login, or META_API_KEY for CI) before it can run at all. Not yet tested by us against a live Busabase server.

Written from this agent's own documentation. We have not re-run every step on a real machine, so check the linked docs if a command has changed.
Let your agent do the setup
One instruction, reviewed access, and every change it makes afterwards arrives as a proposal you approve.
