What are Agent Skills?
Agent Skills are folders of instructions, scripts, and resources that agents can discover and use automatically. Think of them as apps for your AI agent - install one, and your agent gains an ability it didn't have before.
Each skill contains a SKILL.md manifest that describes what the skill does and how to use it. When your agent loads a skill, it reads this manifest and knows what commands are available.
The format is an open standard supported by Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Roo Code, Goose, and many more.
