Why Modus?
AI coding tools often keep their rules, Skills, MCP entries, and configuration files in different local paths. A rule that works well in one agent often has to be copied and edited again for another tool. Whether a Skill is actually available to a specific tool can also require checking folders and tool-specific behavior by hand.
Modus gives those local assets one visible, reusable, and auditable workspace. You can manage rules, Skills, MCP, and config files in one interface, then review the exact file changes before anything is written.
Tool support is based on each tool's official documentation plus local verification of real macOS behavior, especially when the docs do not fully specify where rules, Skills, MCP, or config sources live on disk. Modus treats support as a capability matrix, so a tool can be supported for discovery or read-only review even when a specific write action has not been verified.
Highlights
- Inject one global rule set across tools: Maintain shared rules once and sync them into supported tools so different agents work under the same constraints without repeated manual edits.
- See whether a Skill is usable by each tool: Skill cards show per-tool availability, making it clear which tools can currently use a given Skill.
- Support shared Skills and tool-local Skills: Modus distinguishes tools that support user-level shared Skills
