    ### 1. Install Auggie CLI

    ```bash theme={null}
    npm install -g @augmentcode/auggie@latest
    ```

    ### 2. Sign in to Augment

    ```bash theme={null}
    auggie login
    ```

    This will open a browser window for authentication.

    ### 3. Configure the MCP server in Kilo

    * Click Edit Global MCP
          <img src="https://mintcdn.com/augment-mtje7p526w/rIravLuzI7-HsY1h/images/kilo-2.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=rIravLuzI7-HsY1h&q=85&s=c7c319402a8842930e170de74aa27154" alt="Click Edit Global MCP" width="264" height="64" data-path="images/kilo-2.png" />

    Paste this configuration:

    ```json theme={null}
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "augment-context-engine": {
          "command": "auggie",
          "type": "stdio",
          "args": ["--mcp", "--mcp-auto-workspace"],
          "disabled": false,
          "alwaysAllow": ["codebase-retrieval"]
        }
      }
    }
    ```

    ### 4. Test the integration

    Prompt: "What is this project? Please use codebase retrieval tool to get the answer."

    Kilo should confirm it has access to the `codebase-retrieval` tool.
