This tutorial gets you from a fresh install of Coral, to your agents using Coral to retrieve data.
Did you install the CLI rather than the desktop app? Run coral onboard for an interactive wizard that walks you through your first steps with the Coral CLI.

1. Add data sources

Coral comes with bundled sources for GitHub, Slack, Datadog, Linear, Sentry, and more. Coral can only retrieve data from sources you’ve connected. The sources page in the desktop app allows you to add, remove or create new sources.

2. Connect your agents

The desktop app exposes an MCP server over stdio that your agents can connect to. You can go to the setting in the desktop app to set up your agents, or look at the MCP docs. You can also install Coral skills to help your agents use Coral more effectively.

3. Query your data

Connected sources are now available. Try asking your agent a question about your data.
