The Claris FileMaker Agentic Development Toolkit (ADT) lets a coding agent read and change a FileMaker file, and build web apps that run inside it. This collection is the authoritative reference: requirements, procedures, command and API contracts, configuration, and troubleshooting.

Start with installation if ADT is new to this computer. Otherwise, choose the chapter for the thing you are trying to accomplish. Task pages describe what to ask your coding agent to do; reference pages document the underlying contracts when you need exact details.

Chapters

• Introduction — what ADT is, the two ways it reaches FileMaker, and the terms these pages use

• Install and configure ADT — requirements, installation, your coding agent, credentials, and authorization

• Manage projects and FileMaker files — projects, connected files, and the components ADT installs in a file

• Work with FileMaker — schema, scripts, layouts, calculations, and records

• Develop and deploy Web Viewer apps — create, preview, connect to data, deploy, and test

• Reference — the adt and filemaker command lines, MCP tools, @adt/fmdapi, and configuration

• Update and remove ADT — the three update targets, and removal

• Troubleshoot ADT — diagnostics, symptoms, errors, and what to collect for support
