# Overview

> Build plugins that integrate third-party AI agents with the Entire CLI

External agent plugins are standalone binaries that integrate any AI coding agent with the Entire CLI. The CLI discovers them automatically, with no changes to the main repository required.

<Warning>
  Plugins are arbitrary executables on your `$PATH` that receive repository paths and session data. Only install plugins you trust, as they have the same filesystem access as the CLI itself.
</Warning>

<Note>
  When you select an external agent during `entire agent add` or `entire enable`, the `external_agents` setting is automatically enabled. If you install a new external agent binary after initial setup, you can enable discovery manually by adding `"external_agents": true` to your `.entire/settings.json` file, or by re-running `entire agent`.
