Ply UI tools (3)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsget_componentFreeGet registry metadata for one component (deps, category, file list). Free source only when includeSource=true. Pro source is never streamed via MCP. Does not install; returns installCommand (npx ply-ui-cli add <name>).
list_componentsFreeList components from the Ply registry. Filter by tier (free|pro|all), category, or name substring. Does not install anything. To copy a component into a project, tell the user to run npx ply-ui-cli add <name>.
search_componentsFreeFuzzy / token search over registry component names (e.g. "dialog", "sheet", "carousel"). Does not install anything. Prefer this before guessing names, then give the user npx ply-ui-cli add <name> (or local stdio add_components).

What the publisher says
From the Ply UI repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
MIT free-tier source. Components live in components/ (same layout as npx ply-ui-cli add). CLI and MCP live in packages/. Pro items are not stored here — install those with PLYLICENSEKEY from ply-ui.com.
Angular 19+: free components on compat/angular-19. main is Angular 22 (signal-forms [formField]).
Ply — Angular + Tailwind Component Library
Ply (formerly Base UI (Angular)) — ply-ui.com — is a CLI-first Angular + Tailwind CSS component library: 218 components and blocks (128 free, 90 Pro), 390 icons, and 18 full page layouts — standalone, zoneless, signal-based and SSR-safe, delivered shadcn-style: npx ply-ui-cli add copies the source into your project and it's yours. Not MUI Base UI (React).

🚀 Quick Start (Free Tier)
The free tier is production-ready with no account or license: all primitives (buttons, cards, dialogs, hover cards, menubars, inputs, currency fields, selects, tabs, stacked toasts, tooltips, and more) plus all 19 form blocks (login, signup, checkout, billing, wizard, …).
1. Initialize your project
npx ply-ui-cli initThis writes ply-ui.json, creates ply-ui.css (CDK overlay styles, keyframes, autofill fixes) imported from your global stylesheet, and downloads the icon sprites into your assets folder. Use --yes to accept defaults non-interactively. It does not install npm packages, so add the Angular CDK yourself: npm install @angular/cdk.
2. Configure Tailwind CSS
Ply works with standard Tailwind CSS 4 — no custom theme file required.
- Install Tailwind CSS 4 and PostCSS (Angular guide).
- Create src/tailwind.css, register it in angular.json before global SCSS, and point @source at your templates. @source paths are relative to the CSS file:
@import "tailwindcss";
@source "./**/*.{html,ts}";Buttons, inputs, folder/underline/pills tabs, selects, combobox, toast, accordion, and the command palette read --ply-primary from ply-ui.css. That file aliases --color-blue- to the same scale, so blue- widgets follow it. A Theme Studio export sets --ply-brand and --ply-scale-*.
