Agently Skills

July 11, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

Official installable skills for coding agents working with Agently.

Main framework repository: https://github.com/AgentEra/Agently
Official documentation: https://agently.tech/docs/en/ | https://agently.cn/docs/

Compatibility

The default public catalog is the current Agently-Skills generation v2, aligned with the Agently 4.1.4.1 runtime line and the compact 6-skill structure.

Machine-readable compatibility support lives in compatibility/support.json. The default branch keeps only the current public catalog so coding-agent skill discovery does not retrieve retired Skills.

Historical catalog generations are preserved on dedicated archive branches instead of the default branch. The frozen V1 catalog is archived on update/archive-legacy-v1-catalog and last supports Agently 4.1.1.

What Is Agently?

Agently is a framework for building model-powered applications and workflows. It provides native surfaces for model requests, provider settings, prompt composition, structured output, Action Runtime, MCP, knowledge-base flows, TriggerFlow orchestration, and Dynamic Task DAG execution.

What Is Agently-Skills?

Agently-Skills is the official skills package for coding agents that need to build with Agently.

It is not the same thing as the framework-side Skills Manager and AgentExecution Skill activation path inside the Agently runtime:

  • Agently-Skills - guidance bundles for coding agents such as Codex and Claude Code
  • Agently Skills Manager - framework runtime capability for apps and agents to install, index, inspect, and progressively disclose standard SKILL.md packages; AgentExecution owns planning and concrete Skill activation

Individual skill directories are standard SKILL.md packages with optional references, examples, outputs, and scripts. Detailed API guidance belongs in those skill packages and their one-level reference files, not in this repository README.

Current Catalog

The default catalog contains 6 public skills:

  • agently - top-level router for unresolved model-powered product, assistant, internal-tool, automation, evaluator, workflow, or project-structure refactor requests.
  • agently-request - request-side model setup, provider settings, prompt management, structured output, response reuse, streaming consumption, session memory, embeddings, knowledge-base indexing, retrieval, and retrieval-backed answers.
  • agently-runtime - Action Runtime, built-in action packages, tool compatibility, MCP, ExecutionResource lifecycle, service exposure, auto-function helpers, and KeyWaiter.
  • agently-dynamic-task - Dynamic Task DAG planning, TaskDAG validation, resolver handlers, and TaskDAGExecutor execution through Agently.create_dynamic_task(...).
  • agently-triggerflow - explicit orchestration, branching, concurrency, approvals, waiting and resume, runtime stream, restart-safe execution, mixed sync/async function or module orchestration, and graph-friendly workflow definitions.
  • agently-migration - migration from LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, or similar systems into Agently-native request/runtime or TriggerFlow layers.

Use the current skills/ directory as the default discovery surface. Do not add archived catalog branches, historical directories, or retired Skill folders to a coding agent's normal search path.

Install

Choose the target agent first. The recommended path is to install one bundle into one agent-specific skill directory, for example Codex:

export AGENT=codex

Use AGENT=claude, AGENT=cursor, or another supported agent when that is your actual target.

app Default bundle for building new Agently applications:

for skill in \
  agently \
  agently-request \
  agently-runtime \
  agently-dynamic-task \
  agently-triggerflow
do
  npx skills add AgentEra/Agently-Skills --agent "$AGENT" --skill "$skill" -y
done

migration Bundle for moving existing LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, or similar systems into Agently. Install the app bundle first, then add the migration skill:

npx skills add AgentEra/Agently-Skills --agent "$AGENT" --skill agently-migration -y

Install only the router when you want the smallest possible starting point:

npx skills add AgentEra/Agently-Skills --agent "$AGENT" --skill agently -y

Inspect the default public catalog:

npx skills add . --list

The default listing and standard install path expose only the current 6-skill catalog.
