+Ignite UI for React provides a complete AI toolchain — **Agent Skills**, the **Ignite UI CLI MCP server**, the **Ignite UI Theming MCP server**, and the **MAKER MCP server** — that grounds AI coding assistants in correct component APIs, import paths, and design tokens.
+
+| Component | What it provides | Requires Ignite UI installed? |
+|:----------|:----------------|:-----------------------------:|
+| **Agent Skills** | Developer-owned instruction packages: import paths, component patterns, decision flows, project conventions | Yes |
+| **CLI MCP server** (`igniteui-cli`) | Documentation queries, API reference, project scaffolding tools via MCP | No |
+| **Theming MCP server** (`igniteui-theming`) | Design tokens, palette tools, CSS custom property generation, WCAG AA contrast validation | No |
+| **MAKER MCP server** (`@igniteui/maker-mcp`) | Multi-agent orchestration: decomposes complex tasks into validated, executable step plans | No |
+
+> **Note:** All AI toolchain commands require Ignite UI CLI 16.0.0 or newer.
+
+You can start evaluating Ignite UI AI assistance with the MCP servers alone — Ignite UI does not need to be installed in your project. Agent Skills become available once you install Ignite UI packages.
+
+### Add AI toolchain to an existing project
+
+Run this command from the root of your project:
+
+```bash
+npx igniteui-cli ai-config
+```
+
+This copies Agent Skills into the agent discovery path and writes MCP server entries to `.vscode/mcp.json`. After the command finishes, start the MCP servers in your AI client — they are configured but not yet running.
+
+### Start a new project with AI toolchain
+
+Run the Ignite UI CLI to scaffold a new React project with the AI toolchain configured from the start:
+
+```bash
+ig new
+```
+
+The CLI prompts for project name and theme, installs dependencies, and configures Agent Skills and MCP servers in a single interactive flow. If the CLI is not installed globally, use `npm install -g igniteui-cli`.
+
+### Agent Skills
+
+This package ships with **Agent Skills** — structured, developer-owned instruction packages that tell AI coding assistants exactly how to use Ignite UI for React. The skill files are included in the [`igniteui-react`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/igniteui-react) package and also live in the [`skills/`](https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-react/tree/master/skills) directory.
+
 | Skill | Description |
 |:------|:------------|
 | **components** | Identify the right React components (`Igr*`) for a UI pattern, then install, import, and use them — JSX patterns, events, refs, forms, Next.js setup |
 | **customize-theme** | Customize styling using CSS custom properties, Sass, and the theming system in React |
 | **optimize-bundle-size** | Reduce bundle size with granular imports, tree-shaking, and lazy loading |
+
+When a Skill is active in the AI client, the agent follows the Skill instead of relying on general training data — which may reference outdated API signatures or import paths. The Skill package is developer-owned: edit the `SKILL.md` to match your team's conventions, add project-specific patterns, and version the package alongside your codebase.
+
+### Supported AI Clients
+
+| Client | Configuration method |
+|:-------|:--------------------|
+| VS Code with GitHub Copilot | `.vscode/mcp.json` |
+| Cursor | `.cursor/mcp.json` |
+| Claude Desktop (macOS) | `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` |
+| Claude Desktop (Windows) | `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` |
+| Claude Code | `.mcp.json` or the Claude Code MCP CLI command |
+| JetBrains AI Assistant | **Tools → AI Assistant → Model Context Protocol (MCP)** |
+
+Agent Skills are compatible with GitHub Copilot via `.github/copilot-instructions.md`, Cursor via `.cursorrules` or `.cursor/rules/`, Windsurf via `.windsurfrules`, and JetBrains AI Assistant via project-level prompt settings.
+
+For full setup instructions, see the [AI-Assisted Development documentation](https://www.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-react/react/components/ai-assisted-development-overview).
