Vibe (`iblai/vibe`)

GitHub: github.com/iblai/vibe — Ship AI-powered apps fast. Backend included. MIT license · Next.js · TypeScript · Tailwind CSS · desktop & mobile via Tauri v2.

Overview

Vibe is a developer toolkit for vibe coding new applications on top of the existing ibl.ai backend. It gives you a production-ready scaffold powered by iblai-app-cli, the @iblai/iblai-js SDK, pre-built components, Claude Code skills, and a full backend at iblai.app — you go from zero to a deployed AI app in minutes, with authentication, AI chat, profiles, notifications, and analytics already wired up.

In the five-repo family, Vibe is the build layer: iblai/api operates the platform headlessly via its REST API, iblai/os and iblai/lms are complete sample applications built with this very toolkit, and iblai/iblai-infra-cli deploys the backend on your own infrastructure. Vibe is where you start when you want to create something new against that backend.

It is for developers (and their AI coding agents) who want a working app without building or hosting backend services. Auth is client-side via SSO — no API tokens to store, rotate, or leak. The toolkit runs against the hosted iblai.app environment; for a license to the full platform codebase to run locally or self-host, contact ibl.ai/contact.

What You Get

Built with iblai/vibe

Two production apps are built with this toolkit: Agentic OS (os.ibl.ai, repo iblai/os) and Agentic LMS (lms.ibl.ai, repo iblai/lms).

How It Works

1. Scaffold — generate a full Next.js app with the CLI.
2. Connect — use Claude Code skills to add auth, AI chat, profiles, and more components that connect to iblai.app (or your own instance) for authentication, AI agents, and data.
3. Customize — use the skills to add features, swap components, and adjust business logic.
4. Deploy — push to Vercel or package with Tauri.

Skills

After installing (npx skills add iblai/vibe), use the skills directly in your AI agent with / commands. Instead of reading docs, you tell your agent what you want and the skills provide the context.

Agent-tab skills

One skill per tab of the agent management surface: /iblai-agent-search (browse page), /iblai-agent-setting, /iblai-agent-access, /iblai-agent-api, /iblai-agent-dataset, /iblai-agent-disclaimer, /iblai-agent-embed, /iblai-agent-history, /iblai-agent-llm, /iblai-agent-memory, /iblai-agent-prompt, /iblai-agent-safety, and /iblai-agent-tool.

• /iblai-ops-upgrade — upgrade the ibl.ai CLI, SDK, and vibe skills to the latest versions

Security skills

Eight authorized-use security skills covering reconnaissance, source-code audits (OWASP Top 10), OSINT, disk forensics, incident triage, cloud configuration auditing, dependency vulnerabilities, and prompt-injection testing:

/iblai-security-recon              /iblai-security-incident-triage
/iblai-security-owasp-audit        /iblai-security-cloud-audit
/iblai-security-osint-recon        /iblai-security-dependency-audit
/iblai-security-disk-forensics     /iblai-security-prompt-injection

Marketing skills (companion repo)

The 43 marketing skills (CRO, copywriting, SEO, paid ads, lifecycle, growth) plus 62 platform CLIs and 80 integration guides live in the companion iblai/vibe-marketing repo, installed side-by-side:

npx skills add iblai/vibe-marketing

The ibl.ai Backend

https://api.iblai.app is the production backend that powers every Vibe app — you do not need to build, host, or maintain any backend services. It provides SSO authentication (OAuth-based login with session management and RBAC), AI agent infrastructure (create, configure, and serve agents with streaming responses, tool use, and RAG), analytics, and per-organization management — each organization gets its own users, agents, branding, and configuration. A free tier is available.

AI-Assisted Development (MCP Server)

The @iblai/mcp server gives Claude Code deep knowledge of the ibl.ai platform. Add this to your .mcp.json at the project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "iblai": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@iblai/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

This gives your AI assistant access to component props and usage (get_component_info), hook signatures (get_hook_info), RTK Query endpoint details (get_api_query_info), provider setup code (get_provider_setup), and page template generation (create_page_template).

Platform Capabilities

iOS & Android SSO limitation: Mobile WebViews use a non-standard user-agent that SSO providers reject. Completing the OAuth flow requires a system browser popup (ASWebAuthenticationSession on iOS, Chrome Custom Tabs on Android). This is not yet implemented — mobile users must authenticate via another method for now.

Quick Start

Install the skills into any project:

npx skills add iblai/vibe

Scaffold a complete app with auth, AI chat, profiles, and more in one command (see iblai/iblai-app-cli for the iblai CLI installation guide):

iblai startapp agent -o iblai-init
cp -a iblai-init//. . && rm -rf iblai-init
rm -rf node_modules && pnpm install
cp .env.example .env.local
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000. You will be redirected to login.iblai.app — sign in or create a free account, and you are back in your app with a fully authenticated session.

Already have a project? Install the skills, then use the CLI to add features:

iblai add mcp            # MCP servers + skills (run first)
iblai add auth           # SSO authentication
iblai add profile        # User profile dropdown
iblai add account        # Account/organization settings
iblai add analytics      # Analytics dashboard
iblai add notification  # Notification bell

Deploy to Vercel, or build native desktop and mobile apps:

iblai deploy vercel

iblai add builds              # Add Tauri support
iblai builds build            # Desktop build for current platform
iblai builds ios init         # iOS project setup
iblai builds ci-workflow --all  # GitHub Actions for all platforms

How It Fits With the Other Repos

Vibe is the build layer of the ibl.ai open-source family: it teaches you (and your AI agent) how to create new applications on the same backend that the sample apps run on, the API skills operate, and the infra CLI deploys.

• github.com/iblai/api — agent skills + a chat MCP server to headlessly manage and operate the entire ibl.ai platform via its REST API (npx skills add iblai/api)
• github.com/iblai/os — a complete sample application built with Vibe: the open-source AI agent platform running at os.ibl.ai, yours to fork and modify
• github.com/iblai/lms — another complete sample application: an open-source skills intelligence platform (courses, competencies, credentials), yours to fork and modify
• github.com/iblai/iblai-infra-cli — how to deploy the platform on your own infrastructure with Terraform + Ansible, given access to the backend images
