      • AI Builder Quick Start

      AI Builder is NocoBase's AI-assisted building capability — you can describe your requirements in natural language, and the AI will automatically handle data modeling, page configuration, permission setup, and more. It provides a more modern and efficient building experience.

      Quick Start

      If you have already installed the NocoBase CLI, you can skip this step.

      One-Click AI Installation

      Copy the following prompt to your AI assistant (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Trae, etc.) to automatically complete the installation and configuration:

      Help me install NocoBase CLI: https://docs.nocobase.com/en/ai/ai-quick-start.md

      Manual Installation

      npm install -g @nocobase/cli@beta
mkdir my-nocobase && cd my-nocobase
nb init --ui

      Your browser will automatically open a visual configuration page that guides you through installing NocoBase Skills, configuring the database, and starting the application. For detailed steps, see Quick Start.

      From a Single Sentence to a Complete System

      After installation, you can use natural language to operate NocoBase directly from your AI assistant. Here are a few real-world scenarios, from creating a single table to building an entire system, to give you a feel for AI Builder's capabilities.

      Describe Your Business Requirements, AI Designs Tables and Relationships

      Tell the AI what kind of system you want to build, and it will automatically design data tables, field types, and relationships for you — no need to draw ER diagrams yourself.

      I'm building a CRM, please help me design and build the data model

      AI designs CRM data model

      The AI automatically generated data tables for customers, contacts, opportunities, orders, and their relationships:

      CRM data model result

      To learn more about data modeling, see Data Modeling.

      Describe Pages in Business Language, AI Builds Them

      No need to learn configuration rules — just say what kind of page you want. Search boxes, tables, filters — just describe them and they're done.

      Help me create a customer management page with a name search box and a customer table showing name, phone, email, and creation time

      To learn more about UI configuration, see UI Configuration.

      Orchestrate Automated Workflows with One Sentence

      Describe the trigger conditions and processing logic of your business flow, and the AI will automatically create triggers and node chains.

      Help me orchestrate a workflow that automatically deducts product inventory after an order is created

      Data Tables, Pages, and Dashboards — All at Once

      Note

      The Solutions feature is currently in testing with limited stability, available for early access only.

      Describe your business scenario in one sentence, and the AI will build data tables, management pages, dashboards, and charts all at once.

      Help me use nocobase-dsl-reconciler skill to build a ticket management system with a dashboard, ticket list, user management, and SLA configuration

      The AI first outputs a design plan, then builds everything at once after confirmation:

      Ticket system design plan

      Ticket system build result

      To learn more about building complete systems, see Solutions.

      Security & Audit

      Before letting an AI Agent operate NocoBase, we recommend understanding the authentication methods, permission controls, and operation auditing — ensuring the AI only does what it should, with every step recorded. See Security & Audit.

      NocoBase Skills

      NocoBase Skills are domain knowledge packages that can be installed into AI Agents, enabling AI to understand NocoBase's configuration system. NocoBase provides 8 Skills covering the entire building workflow:

      Tip

      NocoBase CLI automatically installs Skills during initialization (nb init), so manual installation is not required.
