This plugin gives Claude Code a set of Qt development skills. Review workflows inspect Qt C++ ownership, threading, correctness, error paths, and performance; QML workflows examine bindings, layouts, loaders, delegates, and states. Other skills cover QML authoring, Qt 6 projects with CMake, Markdown reference docs, and Qt Quick tests.
The bundle also includes workflows around qmlprofiler, .qtd traces, Figma tokens, and generated QML controls. Its MCP tools provide Qt API documentation lookup and a local live preview for QML changes without rebuilding. The profiler does not handle Qt Quick 3D, while the test-generation skill leaves CMake and runner setup to you.
Commercial use of the skills and MCP tools requires agreement to the Qt AI Services Terms & Conditions. The listed plugin platform is Claude Code.
