Inspect, upload, release, monitor, and revert OtaKit Capacitor OTA updates.
Installation
Ajoutez ceci à la configuration MCP de votre client (Claude Desktop : claude_desktop_config.json ; Cursor : .cursor/mcp.json ; VS Code et les autres utilisent la même forme « mcpServers »).
claude mcp add --transport http otakit 'https://console.otakit.app/mcp'
{
"mcpServers": {
"otakit": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://console.otakit.app/mcp"
}
}
}
@otakit/cliclaude mcp add otakit -- npx -y @otakit/cli@1.10.0 mcp
{
"mcpServers": {
"otakit": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",

Sommaire
OtaKit
Fully open-source, self-hostable over-the-air update framework for Capacitor apps. Release updates directly to your Capacitor app without app store reviews.
Try it for free: OtaKit.app
Self-hosting
OtaKit is hosted-first — the managed service at otakit.app runs everything for you — but the entire platform is in this repo and can run on your own infrastructure. The minimal stack is the console (a standard Next.js app), Postgres, and an S3-compatible bucket behind a CDN.
Full step-by-step guide: otakit.app/docs/self-host
How it works
- Create an app in the dashboard.
- Copy its
appIdintocapacitor.config.*. - Build the app's web assets.
- Run
otakit upload --releaseto upload the bundle and publish a release. - The server writes the bundle and manifest to object storage behind the CDN.
- On the next app launch or resume, the plugin fetches the manifest from the CDN, compares it to the current bundle, and downloads the new version if available.
- If
notifyAppReady()is called within the timeout, the new bundle is confirmed. Otherwise the plugin rolls back to the previous bundle automatically.
MCP & Agent Skills
Ask Claude Code, Codex, or VS Code to ship an update and it reads your Capacitor project, checks whether the change is safe to send over the air, uploads the build, and stops for your approval before anything reaches a device.
One command from your project directory:
npx -y @otakit/cli@latest connect
It detects your client, signs you in if needed, and prints the console, organization, project, and
app it resolved — plus the exact file it will write — before writing anything. --dry-run shows
the plan and writes nothing.
Claude Code has a plugin that ships the server and the OtaKit Agent Skill together:
npx -y @otakit/cli@latest login
claude plugin marketplace add OtaKit/otakit
claude plugin install otakit@otakit
See the MCP and Agent Skills guide for Codex, Claude Code, remote OAuth, permissions, workflows, and self-hosting.
Core concepts
- App — the Capacitor app identified by its
appId - Bundle — one uploaded web build zip with a version, hash, and size
- Release — a promotion of a bundle to a channel, which publishes a manifest to the CDN
- Channel — an optional release track such as
staging - Runtime version — an optional native compatibility lane configured in the plugin

Local development
- Node.js 20.9+, pnpm 9+
- The console app (
packages/console) requires Postgres and R2-compatible storage. Seepackages/console/.env.example. - Device event analytics optionally require the ingest service (
packages/ingest) and a Tinybird workspace. - See each package README for setup details.
pnpm install
pnpm dev # starts the console app in dev mode
