Official wiki: https://wiki.movie-pilot.org
PostgreSQL setup: docs/postgresql-setup.md

MoviePilot can also be installed and managed from source with the local CLI:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jxxghp/MoviePilot/v2/scripts/bootstrap-local.sh | bash

After installation, use the moviepilot command for initialization, service management, updates, and configuration. See docs/cli.md for the full command reference.

Agent

MoviePilot includes a built-in AI Agent. After model configuration, it can call system tools through natural language to help with search, subscriptions, downloads, organization, diagnostics, and other management tasks.
Other agents can import the repository skills/ directory to gain MoviePilot operation capabilities. Environments that support the skills CLI can use:
```
npx skills add https://github.com/jxxghp/MoviePilot
```
Built-in skills live in skills/. For custom skill authoring, see skills/create-moviepilot-skill/SKILL.md.
Other MCP clients can call MoviePilot tools through /api/v1/mcp. Authentication, client configuration, and tool APIs are documented in docs/mcp-api.md.
