Getting Started

Get up and running with The Digital Foundry in minutes.

Prerequisites​

  • An AI assistant that supports custom instructions (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, etc.)
  • Access to The Digital Foundry Skills feed (FPT Software internal network or VPN)

Install the CLI​

Download the latest The Digital Foundry CLI binary from the Download page. The standalone binary requires no Python installation.

For detailed instructions, see the CLI Installation guide.

Step 2: Configure the CLI​

Add the FPT Software skills source:

odcx source add default --url https://fpt-digital-foundry@dev.azure.com/fpt-digital-foundry/ODCX/_git/ODCX-Skills

Authenticate using your FPT PAT (Personal Access Token). Run the interactive credential helper:

odcx credential

You will be prompted to enter the source name and your PAT. Sync the source to fetch the skills list:

odcx source sync --all

Step 3: Browse Available Skills​

List skills available in the configured source:

odcx skill list

Step 4: Install Your First Skill​

Install the code review skill:

odcx skill install gen-code-review

This downloads the skill and registers it with your AI assistant's instruction path.

Step 5: Use the Skill​

Open your project in VS Code and ask your AI assistant:

Review the changes in src/api/skills.controller.ts using the code review skill

The AI will apply the skill's review framework to your code.
