The open standard

A skill is a playbook for your AI coding agent

Skills are markdown documents that contain expert instructions, patterns, and best practices. Install one, and your AI agent writes code the way a specialist would.

Without a skill

you: Build me a Shopify checkout

agent: Sure, I'll create a basic checkout form with some common fields...

Generic code. Missing Shopify's API patterns, best practices, and edge cases.

With a skill installed

you: Build me a Shopify checkout

agent: I'll use the Shopify Checkout API patterns from the installed skill. Using Cart API with checkoutCreate mutation, Shopify Payments integration, and proper error handling for declined cards...

Expert-level code. The agent knows Shopify's APIs, conventions, and common pitfalls.

Expert Knowledge

Best practices and conventions from tool maintainers and power users

Works Everywhere

One skill works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and every major agent

Always Current
