| description | Initialize IBM API Connect or IBM DataPower Interactive Gateway AI assets — MCP servers and skills |
Set up all AI assets for your IBM product in this workspace: MCP servers and agent skills. The right set of assets is determined by identifying which product the user has access to and following the appropriate installation path.
Product Selection
Before doing anything else, ask the user which product they are working based on the below product information:
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Which IBM product are you setting up AI assets for?
[1] IBM API Connect (APIC)
- Full API Connect instance (SaaS or on-prem v10/v12)
- Sets up: MCP servers (analytics, governance, management, management-ai,
studio, connection-composer, consumer, idig) + agent skills
[2] IBM DataPower Interactive Gateway (IDIG) — standalone / on-prem
- Standalone IDIG deployment without a full API Connect instance
- Sets up: idig-onprem MCP server + agent skills
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Ask for the user choice.
Rules:
- Wait for the user's answer before proceeding.
- If the user answers 1 (IBM API Connect), follow all steps in the
idig-apic.md instructions.
- If the user answers 2 (IDIG standalone / on-prem), follow all steps in the
idig-onprem.md instructions.
- If the user is unsure, briefly describe the difference:
- IBM API Connect is the full API management platform — if they have an API manager URL and API keys they are an APIC user.
- IDIG standalone is a self-contained DataPower Gateway deployment — if they only have a gateway base URL, username, and password, they are an on-prem IDIG user.
- Do not proceed to any installation steps until the product choice is confirmed.
