π Quick Start
Installation
# Install from crates.io
cargo install omni-dev
# Install with Nix
nix profile install github:rust-works/omni-dev
# Install with Nix flakes (development)
nix run github:rust-works/omni-dev
Next step: see Getting Started β a 10-minute walkthrough from authentication to your first AI-improved commit. (For just the API-key reference, see Authentication.)
Shell Completion
omni-dev completions <shell> prints a completion script to stdout for bash, zsh, fish, powershell, or elvish. The quickest path is bash per-user:
# Add to ~/.bashrc:
eval "$(omni-dev completions bash)"
See docs/shell-completion.md for per-shell install recipes, the $fpath/compinit setup zsh requires, and troubleshooting.
π How omni-dev Compares
omni-dev sits in two adjacent spaces β AI commit-message tooling and Atlassian/dev-workflow MCP servers. The tables below contrast the incumbents on the dimensions a first-time reader is most likely to weigh. In every cell, β
means full / native support, β means partial or available only with caveats, and β means not supported β and omni-dev's own limitations are flagged just as honestly (the β marks in its own columns).
Beyond these two niches, omni-dev also ships a supervised daemon that hosts a browser bridge (an authenticated proxy that runs requests through a logged-in browser tab for SSO-gated dashboards such as Grafana and Loki) and a Snowflake SQL service (one external-browser SSO session reused for concurrent queries), plus a local append-only request log (omni-dev log). These have no direct incumbent in either table below, so they are called out here rather than scored against tools that don't aim for them.

vs Atlassian-workflow MCP servers
omni-dev's MCP server also exposes Git tools (commit analysis, twiddling, PR creation), Datadog tools, and an ai_chat proxy β surfaces the Atlassian-focused servers don't aim for. The table below compares only Atlassian capability depth.

_Last verified: 2026-06-23. omni-dev and sooperset rows are live-tested β a tools/list enumeration (omni-dev branch build vs ghcr.io/sooperset/mcp-atlassian:latest) plus a live readβwriteβread fidelity cycle on a complex page. Atlassian Rovo's server accepts the API token but gates tool execution behind an org-admin grant, so its rows combine Atlassian's Supported tools docs with the ADF-passthrough reasoning (raw ADF can round-trip, but only if the model echoes it faithfully β no deterministic guarantee), not a live run. Refresh quarterly or whenever a release-note search for the comparators flags a relevant change._

π Atlassian Integration
Read, write, and manage JIRA issues and Confluence pages from the command line:
# Authenticate with Atlassian Cloud
omni-dev atlassian auth login
# Check authentication status
omni-dev atlassian auth status
# Fetch a JIRA issue as markdown
omni-dev atlassian jira read PROJ-123

omni-dev atlassian jira write PROJ-123 issue.md
# Interactive edit: fetch, edit in $EDITOR, push
omni-dev atlassian jira edit PROJ-123
# Search issues with JQL
omni-dev atlassian jira search --project PROJ --status Open

omni-dev atlassian confluence search --space ENG --title auth
omni-dev atlassian confluence create page.md --space ENG --title "New Page"
# Convert markdown to ADF JSON (offline)
omni-dev atlassian convert to-adf input.md
π Datadog Integration (read-only)
Authenticate against the Datadog API and query metrics, monitors, dashboards, logs, events, SLOs, hosts, and downtimes. See the Datadog integration guide for the full subcommand reference, authentication setup, rate-limit behaviour, and troubleshooting.
# Configure Datadog API credentials (prompts for API key, APP key, and site)
omni-dev datadog auth login
# Verify the credentials by calling /api/v1/validate
omni-dev datadog auth status
# Query metrics, monitors, dashboards, logs, and SLOs
omni-dev datadog metrics query --query 'avg:system.cpu.user{*}' --from 15m
omni-dev datadog monitor list --tags env:prod
omni-dev datadog dashboard list
omni-dev datadog logs search --filter 'service:api status:error' --from 1h
omni-dev datadog slo list --tags team:platform
DATADOG_SITE defaults to datadoghq.com. Other regions (datadoghq.eu, us3.datadoghq.com, us5.datadoghq.com, ap1.datadoghq.com, ddog-gov.com) are recognised without warning. Environment variables DATADOG_API_KEY, DATADOG_APP_KEY, DATADOG_SITE override the stored settings. For on-prem or proxied installs, set DATADOG_API_URL to override the site-derived URL.
All Datadog subcommands are also exposed as MCP tools (datadog_*) β see docs/mcp.md. For the full guide covering every family with worked examples, see docs/datadog.md.
ποΈ Transcript Fetching
Pull captions and transcripts from external media platforms. YouTube is the first supported source; the CLI namespace and library are designed so additional sources (Vimeo, podcast RSS, generic VTT/SRT URLs) can be added without restructuring. See docs/transcript.md for the full reference and the recipe for adding a new source.
# Fetch captions for a YouTube video as SubRip (default).
omni-dev transcript youtube fetch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw
# WebVTT to a file, falling through to auto-generated captions if needed.
omni-dev transcript youtube fetch jNQXAC9IVRw \
--format vtt --auto --output me-at-the-zoo.vtt
# Synthesise a translated track when no native French track exists.
omni-dev transcript youtube fetch <url> --lang fr --translate fr
# List available caption tracks (manual + auto-generated).
omni-dev transcript youtube list-langs <url>
# Show video metadata (title, channel, duration, languages).
omni-dev transcript youtube info <url> --output json
--format accepts srt, vtt, txt, or json. Locators may be a watch?v= URL, a youtu.be/ short URL, a /shorts/ or /embed/ URL, or a bare 11-character video ID. Age-gated and login-required videos surface as a typed PlayabilityRefused error carrying YouTube's status code rather than a generic HTTP failure.
π Browser Bridge
Drive HTTP requests through an authenticated browser tab. When you are investigating internal services (Grafana/Loki, internal dashboards, SSO-gated admin panels), the browser already holds sessions β SSO, OAuth, cookies β that are hard to replicate programmatically. The bridge issues requests inside the browser's authenticated context without exfiltrating cookies or tokens (a confused deputy by design). Both planes are authenticated and default-closed; see docs/browser-bridge.md for the full guide and ADR-0036 for the security rationale.
# Start the bridge; it prints the bound ports, a session token, and a JS
# snippet to paste into the DevTools console of the authenticated tab.
omni-dev browser bridge serve
# Drive requests through the tab (token from the bridge's stdout).
export OMNI_BRIDGE_TOKEN=<token printed by the bridge>
omni-dev browser bridge request --url /loki/api/v1/labels
# POST a JSON payload from a file, with a custom header.
omni-dev browser bridge request --url /api/foo --method POST \
--body @payload.json --header "Accept: application/json"
# Stream a long-lived endpoint (SSE / chunked) instead of buffering.
omni-dev browser bridge request --url /api/events --stream
# Route to a specific tab when several are connected (by id or origin).
omni-dev browser bridge request --url /api/foo --target https://grafana.internal
Supports binary and streaming response bodies, multi-tab routing via X-Omni-Bridge-Target, per-request --credentials and --allow-origin overrides, and a transparent proxy for tools that speak plain HTTP.
π°οΈ Daemon
Host long-lived services in one supervised process behind a private per-user Unix-domain control socket. The browser bridge is the first service migrated onto it (Snowflake is the second), and on macOS an optional menu-bar app gives live control. daemon start installs a launchd LaunchAgent for auto-start at login, and status reports every hosted service. See Running under the daemon and ADR-0039 for the architecture.
# Start the background daemon (installs a launchd LaunchAgent on macOS)
omni-dev daemon start
# Per-service status (add --json for machines)
omni-dev daemon status
# Restart or stop it
omni-dev daemon restart
omni-dev daemon stop
The daemon is Unix-only β its control plane is a Unix-domain socket β while the rest of omni-dev runs everywhere.
βοΈ Snowflake
Authenticate a Snowflake session once via external-browser SSO, then run concurrent arbitrary SQL across any account without an SSO popup on every query. The daemon holds the session in memory and multiplexes a bounded pool, so each query can still set its own warehouse/role/database/schema. See docs/snowflake-service.md.
# Run SQL (from an argument or stdin); the first query opens the SSO browser
omni-dev snowflake query "select current_version()"
# Per-query context overrides and JSON output
omni-dev snowflake query "select * from t limit 10" \
--warehouse WH --role ANALYST --database DB --schema PUBLIC --format json
# Inspect or evict live sessions
omni-dev snowflake sessions
omni-dev snowflake disconnect --account <ACCOUNT> --user <USER>
Account/user/context default from SNOWFLAKE_* env vars then ~/.omni-dev/settings.json β no accounts are hardcoded. Runs on the daemon, so it is Unix-only.
π Request Log
Every invocation and the HTTP requests it issues are recorded to a local, append-only log you can search and tail. Best-effort and default-on; no secret is ever written (auth headers are redacted, bodies opt-in). See docs/log.md.
# Recent activity (one line each)
omni-dev log
# Filter by service and status class, or a query expression; follow live
omni-dev log --service jira --status 5xx
omni-dev log --query 'method:POST AND status:4xx' --follow
# Full records as JSON (byte-identical to the on-disk lines)
omni-dev log --format json -n 20
Set OMNI_DEV_LOG_DISABLE=1 to turn it off, or OMNI_DEV_LOG_BODIES=1 / OMNI_DEV_LOG_HEADERS=1 to opt into capturing bodies/headers.
π Coverage Diff
Attribute a per-line coverage report to a git diff and report patch coverage β the share of added lines that are tested β plus the uncovered new lines, per-file deltas, and indirect coverage changes. Reads lcov, llvm-cov JSON, or Cobertura XML (auto-detected), renders markdown/YAML/JSON, and can gate a branch. It powers the project's PR coverage comment and runs locally too. See docs/coverage.md.
# Patch coverage for the working tree against the default merge-base
omni-dev coverage diff --report head.lcov
# Fail if patch coverage is under 80% (a CI gate or a pre-push check)
omni-dev coverage diff --report head.lcov --fail-under-patch 80
# Full report with project deltas, as JSON
omni-dev coverage diff --report head.lcov --baseline-report base.lcov --format json
βοΈ Manual Amendment
# Apply specific amendments from YAML file
omni-dev git commit message amend amendments.yaml
π§© Claude Code Slash-Commands
Generate ready-to-use Claude Code slash-command templates into the project's .claude/commands/ directory. Each template is a self-contained workflow that drives a multi-step omni-dev operation from inside a Claude Code session.
# Generate all templates: commit-twiddle, pr-create, pr-update
omni-dev commands generate all
# Or individually
omni-dev commands generate commit-twiddle
omni-dev commands generate pr-create
omni-dev commands generate pr-update
Each subcommand writes .claude/commands/<name>.md. Commit the files to share the workflows with collaborators β Claude Code picks them up automatically, so anyone in the repo can invoke /commit-twiddle, /pr-create, or /pr-update inside a Claude Code session. See the user guide for the full reference.
ποΈ Claude Conversation History
Export your Claude Code chat history to a directory of .jsonl files for behavioural analysis, work-log generation, or downstream tooling. Re-running acts as an idempotent sync: new chats are added, modified chats are overwritten, unchanged chats are skipped.
# Mirror ~/.claude/projects to ./history/ (one .jsonl per chat, grouped by project slug)
omni-dev ai claude history sync --target ./history
# Limit to one project (encoded slug or decoded cwd path)
omni-dev ai claude history sync --target ./history --project /Users/me/work/repo
# Only sessions touched in the last week
omni-dev ai claude history sync --target ./history --since 7d
# Preview without writing, then prune target files for sessions removed upstream
omni-dev ai claude history sync --target ./history --dry-run --prune
# Render LLM-friendly markdown alongside the raw jsonl (one .md per session)
omni-dev ai claude history sync --target ./history --output-format jsonl,markdown
# Markdown only β suitable for piping into a coaching LLM
omni-dev ai claude history sync --target ./history --output-format markdown
The export is a behavioural transcript, not a faithful archive. The top-level session jsonl captures all prompts, responses, thinking blocks, tool calls, and tool-result metadata β the signal needed for analysis. Sub-agent internal turns, large tool-output sidecars, PDF page rasters, and Claude's auto-memory are deliberately excluded; they would bloat any LLM-ingested corpus without adding interaction-pattern signal.
In-progress chats produce a valid jsonl prefix (the source size is captured once at the start of the copy), so you can sync safely while a chat is open. The target layout mirrors the source β <target>/<slug>/<uuid>.jsonl β and source mtime is preserved on each target file so downstream tooling can sort sessions chronologically without parsing every file.
--output-format markdown writes a derived <target>/<slug>/<uuid>.md alongside (or instead of) the jsonl. Each markdown file has YAML frontmatter with session metadata followed by ## User / ## Assistant turns; tool calls render as ### Tool call: <name> blocks, thinking blocks collapse into <details>, and sub-agent (Agent) calls render the prompt argument only.
Agent-to-user interactions are surfaced as first-class structured events so the analyst LLM sees what was actually asked and how the user responded:
AskUserQuestioncalls render as### Agent question: <header>with the
question text and a bulleted list of options (with descriptions); the paired user reply renders as ## User response.
- Tool denials show up as
Tool result (<tool>, denied by user):β
detected by the canonical "The user doesn't want to proceed with this tool use" sentinel Claude Code stuffs into the next tool_result.
- Tool interrupts (escape mid-execution) render as
Tool result (<tool>, interrupted by user):.
- Errors (real tool failures, distinct from user denials) keep the
error label; successes use ok.
System reminders, attachments, and permission-mode events are included by default β pass --exclude-system to drop them. Markdown idempotency keys off source mtime alone (the rendered length differs from the source length), and --prune only deletes artifacts whose extension matches one of the formats listed in --output-format.
See docs/user-guide.md#ai-claude-history-sync--export-conversation-history for the in-depth reference, and the broader Claude Code Integration section for related commands (ai chat, ai claude skills).
π MCP Server
omni-dev ships an optional Model Context Protocol server so AI assistants (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, the MCP Inspector, custom agents) can call omni-dev over stdio instead of shelling out to the CLI. The server is delivered as a second binary, omni-dev-mcp, gated behind the mcp Cargo feature (see ADR-0021).
Tools cover six domains:
| Domain | Examples | |--------|----------| | Git (5) | git_view_commits, git_branch_info, git_check_commits, git_twiddle_commits, git_create_pr | | JIRA (28) | core read/write/search/transition/comment/link/dev/delete; sprints, boards, watchers, worklogs, fields, attachments, projects, changelog | | Confluence (13) | read/write/search/create/delete/download/children, comments, labels, user search | | Atlassian shared (2) | atlassian_auth_status, atlassian_convert (offline JFM β ADF) | | Datadog (14) | metrics, monitors, dashboards, logs, events, SLOs, hosts, downtimes, metrics catalog | | AI / Config (5) | ai_chat (one-shot chat), claude_skills_* (sync / clean / status for .claude/skills/ distribution), config_models_show |
Resources exposed via URI templates:
| URI template | Returns | |---------------------------------|----------------------------------| | git://repo/commits/{range} | YAML commit analysis | | jira://issue/{key} | JIRA issue as JFM | | jira://issue/{key}.adf | JIRA issue body as ADF | | confluence://page/{id} | Confluence page as JFM | | confluence://page/{id}.adf | Confluence page body as ADF | | omni-dev://specs/{name} | Embedded reference specs (e.g. jfm) |
See docs/mcp.md for the full tool catalog, resource reference, cross-cutting parameters (output_file, confirm), and troubleshooting.
Install
cargo install omni-dev --features mcp
This adds a second binary, omni-dev-mcp, alongside the regular omni-dev CLI. The default cargo install omni-dev build is unchanged β no MCP dependencies are pulled in unless the mcp feature is enabled.
Claude Desktop
Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS (or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows):
{
"mcpServers": {
"omni-dev": {
"command": "omni-dev-mcp"
}
}
}
Claude Code
Per-project β create .mcp.json at the repo root:
{
"mcpServers": {
"omni-dev": {
"command": "omni-dev-mcp"
}
}
}
Or register globally with the Claude Code CLI:
claude mcp add omni-dev omni-dev-mcp
Smoke-test with the MCP Inspector
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector omni-dev-mcp
The Inspector opens a browser UI where you can list tools and resources, call any tool interactively, and fetch resources against the current working directory.
For troubleshooting (stderr logs, RUST_LOG=debug, "failed to open git repository"), see docs/mcp.md#troubleshooting.
