Choose Your Setup

MCP Server

Connect your AI coding agent to BackAnt. Supports 30+ agents including Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and more.
  • Automatic setup via wizard
  • Remote server — zero local dependencies
  • Manual config for any agent

CLI

Install the ant CLI to scaffold and extend Flask APIs from your terminal.
  • pip install backant-cli
  • Requires Python 3.11+
  • Works standalone or alongside the MCP server
Not sure which to pick? If you use an AI coding agent like Cursor or Claude Code, start with the MCP Server — your agent can scaffold entire APIs for you. If you prefer the terminal, install the CLI.
