# Twent Docs

> Twent is a free AI agent for Android. It automates any app, runs a full Ubuntu terminal, connects to MCP servers and skills, and remembers across sessions. Bring your own API key.

This is the user manual for the Twent Android app. Every page below also has a markdown twin — append .md to any docs URL to read it as raw markdown.

## Getting Started

- [Start Using Twent](https://twent.xyz/docs/getting-started/start-using-twent): Download the APK, install it (including the "install unknown apps" and Play Protect steps), grant permissions, connect an AI provider (Nous Research, Opencode Zen, or NVIDIA NIMS), wait for the 8-10 minute terminal setup, and start the ddg-search server.

## Plugins

- [MCP](https://twent.xyz/docs/plugins/mcp): Connect external tools via streamable-http or STDIO MCP servers — browser-flow auth, token auth, no-auth remote servers, or fully local ones like ddg-search. Browse published servers in-app; installed servers appear under "My Servers".
- [Skills](https://twent.xyz/docs/plugins/skills): Install skills from the in-app catalog and tag them with "/" in your prompt. The agent can also install skills on demand.

## Features

- [Agent Capabilities](https://twent.xyz/docs/features/agent-capabilities): Web research via ddg-search, plus persistent memory that grows with use and is editable in the "AI's Memory" page.
- [Agent CLIs](https://twent.xyz/docs/features/agent-clis): Browse and install agent CLIs (claude-code, codex, hermes-agent, amp-code, pi-agent, roo-code, kilocode...) into the Ubuntu terminal.
- [Token Config](https://twent.xyz/docs/features/token-config): Get an API key for any provider from the provider's own site, inside the app.
- [Terminal](https://twent.xyz/docs/features/terminal): A full Ubuntu environment. First-run setup takes 8-10 minutes automatically; see what was installed via "Environment Setup" (bottom-right).
- [Bots](https://twent.xyz/docs/features/bots): Agents with a specific task, triggered manually, on a schedule, or by events.
- [Subagents](https://twent.xyz/docs/features/subagents): The main agent delegates subagents; view bots and subagents in the calendar-like "Bots & Tasks" page.
