Connect Zoo Code to Busabase
Autonomous VS Code agent extension that can edit code, run terminal commands, and connect to local or remote MCP servers.
Paste this into Zoo Code
Read https://busabase.com/SETUP_SKILL.md and set up Busabase for me. Follow it through to the end, then confirm the connection works.

Give your agent this one instruction
You end up with more than a connector: the busabase skill carries the whole approval-first 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
Switch Zoo Code to an agent mode that can use the terminal, then let it follow SETUP_SKILL.md and review its command approvals.
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.

Install Zoo Code from the VS Code Marketplace, open a trusted project, switch to a mode with terminal access, and ask: Read https://busabase.com/SETUP_SKILL.md and set up Busabase for me. Review its commands and complete authentication. For API-key MCP fallback, configure a streamable-http server in the global MCP settings or .roo/mcp.json.
Known gotchas
Remote servers must set type to `streamable-http`; Zoo cannot infer transport from a URL. The project configuration path is still `.roo/mcp.json`. The reviewed docs show header-based authentication, not OAuth.
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.
