Watch Skill in Qodo Command

Status: doc-verified ☑ — config matches docs.qodo.ai; not executed here.

Install

uvx --from "watch-skill[standard]" watch-skill doctor

uvx fetches the package on first use and needs no checkout. Prefer a permanent install? pipx install "watch-skill[standard]", then use "command": "watch-skill", "args": ["serve"] in the config below.

git clone https://github.com/oxbshw/watch-skill && cd watch-skill
uv sync --extra all
uv run watch-skill doctor

Then run watch-skill setup, which writes the config pointing at your checkout rather than the published package.

Configure

Project-root mcp.json makes the server available to all your Qodo agents:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "watch-skill": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["--from", "watch-skill[standard]", "watch-skill", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

Then reference it from an agent's TOML under its tools section, e.g. a QA agent that reviews screen recordings:

[commands.review_recording]
description = "Watch a screen recording and produce a bug report"
instructions = """
Watch the given recording with watch_video, then call extract_bug_report
and present the result with timestamps.
"""
tools = ["watch-skill"]

Smoke test (3 steps)

1. qodo chat, then: "Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqz-KE-bpKQ and tell me what happens at 0:10."
2. Approve the watch_video call.
3. Follow up: "what color is the bird?" — should call ask_video, no re-processing.

Notes

• An agent-specific server (not shared) can live in that agent's TOML instead of the shared mcp.json — same fields.
