  1. Choose a compatible desktop agent and check its own account requirements and costs.
  2. In Studio, open Settings → Agent Server (MCP), enable the server, and select your client. Follow the setup guide shown for that client.
  3. Keep Studio open while the agent is connected. Install the Studio skills using the instructions for your client.
  4. Begin with a read-only request, such as asking the agent to describe your project. Ask it to explain a plan and estimated costs before generating anything.
