Native Soil
Clients

VS Code

Connect Soil to VS Code in one click from the install page, or by adding an HTTP MCP server, then use the same four soil commands.

VS Code

Connect

  1. Fastest: open nativesoil.dev/install and click Add to VS Code (or open the Extensions view and search @mcp). VS Code adds the server · sign in on first use.

  2. Manual alternative: run MCP: Add Server in the Command Palette, choose HTTP, and enter the Soil MCP URL:

    https://mcp.nativesoil.dev/mcp/soil
  3. Sign in on first use · with Google, or with email and password · then run soil info to confirm. It returns your project and handover counts, which proves VS Code reached Soil and is authenticated.

Use Soil

The commands are the same in every client · same grammar, same account. You type them in plain language in the conversation; the model calls the matching Soil tool. @ says where, # says which:

soil save                       save this conversation as a graded handover
soil save #my-name              save under your own name · kept, never overwritten
soil save #my-name @project     add to a shared project · either order
soil list                       your handovers · soil list @project for a team
soil load #001                  load by exact code · by name: soil load #my-thread
soil load @project              whole-project restore · #NNN or #name for one thread
soil info                       your account status · the connection check

Save in this client, load in any other. See the soil commands for details and the reference for every form.
