FAQ
The short version of how Roget works. Still stuck? hello@roget.cc.
- What is Roget?
- Roget is a shared, versioned home for your agent skills — the Markdown instructions your AI agents follow. You write a skill once, share it with your team, and any agent reads and updates it live over MCP, so everyone's AI stays on the same page.
- Which AI agents does it work with?
- Any agent that speaks MCP (the Model Context Protocol). That includes Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-capable clients. You connect once with an API key, and the same skills are available across every tool you use.
- What is an agent skill?
- A skill is a Markdown document with a name and description — a reusable instruction like a code-review checklist, your brand voice, a release process, or a prompt you keep reusing. Roget versions it automatically on every change, so nothing is ever lost.
- Do I need to understand MCP to use it?
- No. MCP is just how your agent talks to Roget under the hood. To connect, you paste one prompt into your agent (or one command in a terminal) and approve in your browser — the agent wires up the rest.
- Is Roget free?
- It's free for personal use — one person, unlimited skills and version history. Team plans add sharing and sync for your whole team. Everything is free while Roget is in early access; paid plans roll out as we exit beta.
- Do my agents update automatically when a skill changes?
- Yes. Agents read skills live over MCP, so when you improve a skill, everyone's agent picks up the latest version the next time it reads it — no copy-pasting new versions between people or tools.
- How does sharing work?
- Share any skill with a teammate by email or by link, as read-only or read/write. They (and their agents) get access immediately. You can revoke access at any time, and only the owner can delete a skill.
- Is my data private?
- Yes. Skills are private by default. They become visible to others only when you explicitly share them with someone, or publish them to the public directory. API keys are stored only as a cryptographic hash, never in the clear.
- Can I bring my existing CLAUDE.md or .cursorrules?
- Yes. During setup there's a one-paste prompt that scans your project for existing CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .cursor/rules, and skill files and imports them into Roget for you.
- What happens to my skills if I stop paying?
- Your skills are yours. If you drop from a team plan back to free, your own skills and their history stay intact — you just lose team sharing features. Nothing is deleted for downgrading.
