aspire new<\/code> or add an apphost to your existing codebase with aspire init<\/code>, you’ll get Aspire specific skills and an MCP so your AI coding agents can work with you. Agents can start your AppHost in the background with the new --detach<\/code> mode, stop and start any resource from the CLI without tearing down the whole system, and wait for resource statuses to update before moving on to their next action.<\/p>\naspire start\naspire resource api restart\naspire wait api --status healthy --timeout 120<\/code><\/pre>\n--isolated<\/code> flag lets agents spin up parallel environments without stepping on each other \u2014 random ports, separate secrets, and no more conflicts across git worktrees.<\/p>\naspire docs<\/code> command brings aspire.dev documentation directly into agent workflows so agents can search and retrieve docs programmatically without needed additional MCPs configured. Plus, aspire doctor<\/code> validates your whole environment before an agent starts building.<\/p>\naspire export<\/code> for debug snapshots, and a unified aspire.config.json<\/code> to simplify settings files.<\/p>\nTypeScript AppHost is here<\/h2>\n
