Get Started

Trae

Connect Bardo through Trae's project MCP configuration and treat the integration as config-supported until live-smoked.

Use this guide for Trae.

Install TraeLink to install-trae

Install or update Trae, then open the campaign workspace you want Bardo to manage.

Trae support is currently config-supported in Bardo. Some Trae builds require enabling project MCP before a workspace .trae/mcp.json file is loaded.

Connect BardoLink to connect-bardo

From the workspace root:

bardo login
bardo init
bardo connect --client trae

Expected result: Bardo writes .trae/mcp.json in the workspace root.

What Bardo writesLink to what-bardo-writes

Bardo writes a project MCP config under mcpServers that starts the local Bardo bridge with bardo mcp serve.

Use Bardo well in TraeLink to use-bardo-well-in-trae

Keep Trae in the same local workspace you prepared with Bardo. Treat this integration as config-supported until the current Bardo release is live-smoked in Trae.

Troubleshooting:

  • Restart Trae after connecting if the MCP server is not listed.
  • Confirm project MCP is enabled if Trae does not load .trae/mcp.json.
  • If readiness is blocked, add the missing campaign inputs before continuing.
