Agent Skills

Structured framework knowledge for AI coding assistants: best practices, patterns, and workflows.

Note

AI Authorship Disclosure: Drafted with GPT-5.3 Codex from official documentation, then reviewed, refined, and validated by humans. Tested with AI assistants and improved through practical iteration.

Why Agent Skills?

AI coding assistants are powerful, but they often:

• Generate outdated framework patterns and anti-patterns
• Miss critical security checks (permissions, validation, authentication)
• Skip proper architectural patterns and conventions
• Ignore existing tooling and best practices in your project

Agent Skills solve this by giving AI assistants deep framework knowledge in a structured, discoverable format.

Available Skills

Quick Start

Using Skills CLI (Recommended)

The easiest way to install is using the Skills CLI:

# Install all skills from all frameworks
npx skills add lubusIN/agent-skills

# Install all skills from all frameworks globally
npx skills add lubusIN/agent-skills -g

# Install all Frappe skills
npx skills add lubusIN/agent-skills --skills=frappe-*

# Install specific skills from any framework
npx skills add lubusIN/agent-skills --skills=frappe-doctype-development,frappe-api-development

The CLI automatically detects your AI assistant (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code) and installs to the correct location.

Refer Skills CLI doc for all the available args

Manual Installation

If you prefer manual installation:

# Clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/lubusIN/agent-skills.git
cd agent-skills

# Copy all Frappe skills to your AI assistant's skills directory
# Claude Code (global)
cp -r skills/frappe/frappe-* ~/.claude/skills/

# Cursor (global)
cp -r skills/frappe/frappe-* ~/.cursor/skills/

# Or into your project
cp -r skills/frappe/frappe-* /path/to/your-project/.claude/skills/

How It Works

Each skill contains:

skills/frappe/frappe-doctype-development/
├── SKILL.md              # Main instructions (when to use, procedure, verification)
└── references/           # Deep-dive docs on specific topics
    ├── doctypes.md
    ├── controllers.md
    └── ...

When you ask your AI assistant to work on framework code, it reads these skills and follows documented procedures rather than guessing.

Skill Structure

Each SKILL.md follows a standard format:

• When to use - Trigger conditions for this skill
• Inputs required - What info the agent needs before starting
• Procedure - Step-by-step instructions
• Verification - Checklist to confirm success
• Failure modes - Common issues and fixes
• Escalation - When to consult docs or ask the user
