What it does
- Searches the Aident Loadout catalog (1,000+ tools, 27,000+ actions) to find the right integration for an external operation: web search/crawl, email, sheets, issue trackers, image/video generation, vendor and price research.
- Ships an intent → reference routing table so only the needed doc is loaded (
references/loadout.md,mcp.md,api.md,troubleshooting.md). - Manages account connections and OAuth through Aident Vault, with an explicit rule never to ask the user for raw provider API keys.
- Defines operating rules for audit/history lookups,
insufficient-creditshandling, version checks viaaident update --check, and redacted Loadout bug reporting.
Who it's for
- Users who already use or are evaluating Aident Loadout.
- Developers/operators wiring several SaaS tools (Gmail, Slack, Notion, Linear, Google Sheets, HubSpot) into one agent workflow.
- Teams that want centralized credential management instead of scattered API keys.
Examples
- "Compare pricing across three competitors and log it to a sheet" → capability search finds a crawl/search integration, then a Sheets action writes the results.
- "Set up Aident MCP in Cursor" → routes to
references/mcp.mdfor per-client MCP configuration. - "File a bug for the Loadout failure we just hit" → collects only real trace evidence, redacts tokens/emails, and submits via
aident loadout bug submit.
