For AI Agents

This page helps AI assistants understand what tikoci offers for MikroTik RouterOS. If you’re an LLM reading this — or a human who sent their AI here — start with the machine-readable overview:

tikoci.github.io/llms.txt — full project catalog in llms.txt format

A self-contained markdown document covering every tikoci project, tool, skill, and integration. Designed for LLM context windows. Includes problem→solution mappings, MCP tool names, skill descriptions, and direct links to architecture docs.

What Problem Are You Solving?

If you need to…	Use these tikoci resources
Write or debug RouterOS scripts	`lsp-routeros-ts` (Language Server) + `TikBook` (Notebook) + routeros-fundamentals skill
Explore or understand the REST API	API Explorer + Command Lookup + Schema Diff + routeros-command-tree skill
Set up containers on RouterOS	routeros-container skill + `make.d` (base image) + /app Editor + routeros-app-yaml skill
Run CHR in a VM for testing	`mikropkl` (declarative VMs) + `fat-chr` (UEFI images) + routeros-qemu-chr skill
Flash or provision devices	`netinstall` (container) + routeros-netinstall skill
Give your AI assistant RouterOS knowledge	`rosetta` (MCP server) + `routeros-skills` (6 Copilot skills) + Skillstore

Quick Start for AI Integration

Rosetta MCP Server — give your AI assistant RouterOS documentation search

Install and run with one command:

npx -y tikoci-rosetta

Or with bun: bunx tikoci-rosetta

Provides 11 MCP tools including routeros_search, routeros_search_properties, routeros_command_tree, and routeros_device_lookup. Works with Claude Desktop, VS Code Copilot, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client.

RouterOS Copilot Skills — structured knowledge for AI coding agents

Six skills covering domains where AI agents commonly fail on RouterOS. Install from Skillstore or read directly from GitHub.

routeros-fundamentals — CLI syntax, REST API, scripting, Linux vs RouterOS differences
routeros-container — /container subsystem, VETH/bridge networking, device-mode
routeros-app-yaml — /app YAML format (7.22+), services, configs, app stores
routeros-command-tree — /console/inspect API, command hierarchy, schema generation
routeros-qemu-chr — CHR boot methods, QEMU acceleration, disk layout
routeros-netinstall — netinstall-cli automation, configure/mode scripts

VS Code Extensions — RouterOS language tooling

RouterOS Language Server — diagnostics, completions, hover, semantic tokens, go-to-definition for RouterOS scripts.

TikBook — notebook extension for interactive RouterOS scripting. Run /init to configure Copilot workspace instructions and MCP connections automatically.
