cherry-tool-guideRoutes an agent inside Cherry Studio to the right first-party tool or bundled runtime for local scripts, documents, memory, schedules, knowledge bases, MCP servers and more.
This file is a router, not a manual. Cherry Studio injects tools over four MCP servers, cherry-tools, agent-memory, skills and mcp-manager, and gives shell-capable agents bundled runtimes: bun for JavaScript and TypeScript, uv run or uvx for Python, and rg for search. A table maps each intent to a tool and to one of ten reference files covering autonomy, CLI, documents, knowledge, MCP, memory, outputs, sessions, skills and web.
The global rules say to check that a tool exists in the live tool list before relying on it, and to say so plainly if it is missing instead of faking a result. Knowledge bases, IM channels, schedules, managed CLIs, skills and registered MCP servers may be changed only through Cherry's tools, not by shelling out to npm install, git clone or crontab. Several tools are gated by the session's approval mode, and the live tool schema is the authority for arguments.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c97c23c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npmgitFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Cherry Studio Tool Guide loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~10k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 209 tokens; SKILL.md has 796 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/cherry-tool-guide/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder). This skill also uses 10 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.Cherry Studio injects first-party tools into your session over four MCP servers
(mcp__cherry-tools__*, mcp__agent-memory__*, mcp__skills__*, mcp__mcp-manager__*)
and gives shell-capable general agents bundled runtimes for local execution. The MCP
tools act on the running app — the user's knowledge bases, IM channels, schedules,
managed CLIs, skill library, and MCP server registry — through boundaries only Cherry
owns. Shell and file tools cannot reach those app boundaries correctly; use the bundled
runtimes only for the local execution cases routed below.
This file is a router. It carries only the global rules and the intent → tool → reference table. Each reference holds that domain's prerequisites, sequencing, conditional availability, output interpretation, recovery, and examples. Read the one reference the task needs (and any it cross-links to) before calling — don't work from this page alone.
Tool names here are fully qualified (mcp__server__tool); the exact names exposed in
your session are authoritative if they ever differ. This guide never restates argument
shapes — the live tool schema in your session is the authoritative source for
parameter names, enums, and required fields. Read it before every call.
npm install, git clone, crontab, or hand-edit
knowledge or MCP settings files to accomplish these — the tool does bookkeeping (registration, scoping, approval, sync)
that a raw shell command skips. Shell is fine for inspection (e.g. command -v to
probe PATH) — just not to perform the owned mutation.mcp__cherry-tools__kb_manage, mcp__cherry-tools__cli_install,
mcp__cherry-tools__session_create, mcp__cherry-tools__session_send,
mcp__skills__install_skill, and mcp__mcp-manager__install_mcp_server are gated by
the session's approval mode. Call them only once the user's intent is clear; if approval is
declined, stop and report — do not retry the same effect through another route.| User intent | Route to | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Look up current/online facts, news, docs | mcp__cherry-tools__web_search → mcp__cherry-tools__web_fetch | web.md |
| Browser interaction (click, forms, screenshots) | mcp__browser__* when enabled; load cherry-browser | web.md |
| Answer from the user's own documents | mcp__cherry-tools__kb_list → mcp__cherry-tools__kb_search → mcp__cherry-tools__kb_read | knowledge.md |
| Add / delete / re-index knowledge | mcp__cherry-tools__kb_manage (resolve IDs first; needs approval) | knowledge.md |
| Read or convert a local document | mcp__cherry-tools__to_markdown → read the returned temporary Markdown path as needed | documents.md |
| Recall a past fact, correction, or preference | mcp__agent-memory__memory (search) before re-asking | memory.md |
| Save durable knowledge vs. a one-off event | mcp__agent-memory__memory (update vs. append) | memory.md |
| Schedule a recurring / future task | mcp__cherry-tools__cron (Cherry scheduling only) | autonomy.md |
| Proactively message the user or send a file | mcp__cherry-tools__notify (needs configured recipients) | autonomy.md |
| Inspect / connect / repair IM channels, rename agent | mcp__cherry-tools__config | autonomy.md |
| Find, create, message, or inspect work across Agent Sessions | mcp__cherry-tools__session_list / session_search / session_create / session_send / session_deliveries | sessions.md |
| Generate an image | mcp__cherry-tools__generate_image (needs a painting model) | outputs.md |
| Declare final deliverable file(s) | mcp__cherry-tools__report_artifacts | outputs.md |
| Run JS/TS or Python, invoke a one-off package, search local code/files | bundled bun, uv / uvx, or rg according to task lifetime | cli.md |
| Find / install a command-line tool | command -v check → mcp__cherry-tools__cli_list → mcp__cherry-tools__cli_search → mcp__cherry-tools__cli_install (approval) | cli.md |
| Find / install a new capability skill | mcp__skills__search_skills → mcp__skills__install_skill (approval) | skills.md |
| Register a new MCP server the user supplied | mcp__mcp-manager__install_mcp_server (approval; never invent the config) | mcp.md |
Two different situations, don't confuse them:
mcp__cherry-tools__generate_image with no painting model. It stays listed and
returns a note; relay the note and point the user at configuration — don't retry
blindly or fake success.On any tool error result (bad ID, unsupported channel/file, invalid recipe), read the message and correct the call; don't silently retry the same arguments. On declined approval, stop and report — never re-attempt the mutation through a different route.
Not covered here: SDK-native Read/Edit/Bash and orchestration tools; calling the
tools of a third-party (user-configured) MCP server — only registering one is in scope,
see mcp.md; the AI-SDK chat read_file attachment reader (a
chat-path tool, not exposed on this MCP surface); and the role-specific
mcp__assistant__* navigation/diagnosis tools, which belong to the Cherry Assistant and
its own guide.

Cherry Studio injects tools over four MCP servers, cherry-tools, agent-memory, skills and mcp-manager, and gives shell-capable agents bundled runtimes: bun for JavaScript and TypeScript, uv run or uvx for Python, and rg for search.
Cherry Studio Tool Guide fits situations like: deciding whether a script should run with a bundled runtime instead of a global install; reading or converting local Office or PDF files in a Cherry session; registering an MCP server or installing a skill through Cherry's managed tools; creating schedules, notifications or persistent memory in Cherry.
Run `npx skills add CherryHQ/cherry-studio --skill cherry-tool-guide -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (resources/skills/cherry-tool-guide in CherryHQ/cherry-studio) into .claude/skills/cherry-tool-guide in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add CherryHQ/cherry-studio --skill cherry-tool-guide -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (resources/skills/cherry-tool-guide in CherryHQ/cherry-studio) into .agents/skills/cherry-tool-guide in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add CherryHQ/cherry-studio --skill cherry-tool-guide -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/cherry-tool-guide, .gemini/skills/cherry-tool-guide, .github/skills/cherry-tool-guide and .opencode/skills/cherry-tool-guide in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Cherry Studio Tool Guide needs the command-line tools its instructions call (npm and git). Our summary lists: A Cherry Studio session with its first-party MCP tools.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use npm and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Cherry Studio Tool Guide is published under the AGPL-3.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 8.1k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
