Implementation Guides
Install skills in under 2 minutes
Step-by-step setup for each supported platform. Every skill ships with adapters for all three — just copy the right file and go.
🟠
Claude Code
File: SKILL.md
Setup Steps
- Download and unzip your skill package.
- Open the `claude-code/` directory inside the zip.
- Copy `SKILL.md` into your project root or working directory.
- Claude Code reads SKILL.md automatically when it starts a session in that directory.
- Start a conversation with Claude Code — the skill instructions are loaded as context.
- Ask Claude to perform the task described in the skill (e.g., "Run a deep research report on X").
Tips
- SKILL.md works like a contract — Claude follows the structure, constraints, and output format defined in the file.
- You can have multiple SKILL.md files in nested directories for different tasks.
- The skill works with any Claude model (Sonnet, Opus, Haiku).
🟢
Codex
File: AGENTS.md
Setup Steps
- Download and unzip your skill package.
- Open the `codex/` directory inside the zip.
- Copy `AGENTS.md` into your project root (same level as package.json or .git).
- Codex reads AGENTS.md automatically when you run `codex exec` in that directory.
- Run your task: `codex exec "Perform deep research on X"`
- Codex follows the instructions, process, and rules defined in AGENTS.md.
Tips
- AGENTS.md is an open standard — it also works with Jules, Cursor, Aider, Gemini CLI, and other compatible agents.
- You can have a global AGENTS.md in `~/.codex/AGENTS.md` for cross-project defaults.
- Nested AGENTS.md files override parent instructions for specific subdirectories.
🔵
OpenClaw
File: manifest.yaml + playbook.md
Setup Steps
- Download and unzip your skill package.
- Open the `openclaw/` directory inside the zip.
- Copy the entire skill folder (containing manifest.yaml and playbook.md) into your OpenClaw skills directory.
- The skill appears automatically in OpenClaw's available skills list.
- OpenClaw loads the manifest for metadata and the playbook for execution instructions.
- Trigger the skill via conversation or automation — OpenClaw handles tool routing and execution.
Tips
- manifest.yaml defines metadata, category, tags, and required tools.
- playbook.md contains the full skill instructions that OpenClaw follows.
- Skills can declare tool dependencies (web_search, exec, etc.) in the manifest.
