Onboard teammates onto approved prompts, skills, and MCPs
Day one on a team that "uses AI" often means: ask around, clone someone's Cursor rules, paste a prompt from Slack, and hope the MCP servers on your laptop match everyone else's.
That is not onboarding. That is tribal setup. Approved catalogues fix it.

AI onboarding day-one chaos
Without a shared catalogue, new people inherit:
Conflicting prompts for the same job
Skills that only exist on one person's machine
Undocumented MCP connections
Secrets pasted into local configs
Quality and compliance both depend on who sat next to them on Tuesday.
Approved catalogues as the default
Put the assets that matter in Joyst before you hire the next person:
Approved prompts in prompt management / the team prompt library
Published skills in the skills registry
Allow-listed servers in the MCP catalogue
Credentials referenced from the secrets vault
Ready-made setups in agents
New starters get view or use access to the signed-off set -- not a scavenger hunt.
Share tiers that match the job
Private for drafts. Group for a squad. Org for company-standard assets. Manage rights stay with owners; most people only need use.
Agencies and multi-client teams can keep client packs separated by folder and share level -- see agency use cases. Platform teams standardise the catalogues once -- see platform teams.
Make it operational
1. Nominate owners for the top prompts and skills
2. Publish the versions the team should run
3. Allow-list MCP servers and attach short docs
4. Grant group access for the new cohort
5. Point agents at the same ingredients so setups stay aligned
Parent pillars stay prompt management, skills registry, and use cases.
FAQ
Is this HR onboarding software?
No. It is onboarding onto approved AI assets -- prompts, skills, MCPs, secrets, and agents -- not people-ops workflows.
What if we only have a few assets?
Start with the ones that already cause "which copy?" questions. Expand as the catalogue grows.
Do people still use ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor?
Yes. Joyst is the source of truth and share layer. Runtime stays in the tools you already pay for.
