LynxHub hosts a skill.md file at the root of the documentation site to describe LynxHub capabilities, required parameters, and workflows directly to AI agents. The skill.md specification follows the agent-skills standard. It allows AI coding assistants (such as Cursor, Claude Code, Antigravity, and custom subagents) to understand how to build extensions, manage modules, configure settings, and resolve issues within LynxHub.

​
Add LynxHub skills to your AI agent

You can easily equip your AI agent with LynxHub skills using the command line or MCP resource auto-discovery.

​
Install using the Skills CLI

Run the following command in your terminal to fetch and install LynxHub skills directly into your AI agent context:
This adds LynxHub operational rules, module architecture details, and plugin development steps into your agent environment.

​
Discover via MCP resources

When you connect your AI agent to the LynxHub search MCP server, the skill.md file is automatically exposed as an MCP resource. Your agent can inspect and utilize these skills without requiring a separate CLI installation.

​
llms.txt vs skill.md

While both formats assist AI models, they target different operational needs:
  • llms.txt is a documentation index: It lists available documentation pages so agents know where to find informational text.
  • skill.md is a capability framework: It instructs agents on what tasks they can execute, what inputs they need, and what constraints apply when interacting with LynxHub.

​
What skill.md enables for agents

When an AI agent loads https://docs.lynxhub.app/skill.md, it learns:
  1. Plugin and extension development: Steps for building renderer frontends, main process handlers, and UI slots.
  2. Module management: Instructions for configuring card methods, installation steppers, and post-install hooks.
  3. Application configuration: Best practices for tuning hotkeys, terminal shell environments, browser behavior, and performance limits.

​
When to use skill.md

Use skill.md when you want your AI agent to actively assist you with complex development or configuration tasks.

Use skill.md when

  • You are building LynxHub extensions or custom modules.
  • You want your agent to follow verified step-by-step development workflows.
  • You are prompting an AI coding assistant to write or refactor LynxHub code.

Use other methods when

  • You only need to search or reference standard text documentation (use llms.txt).
  • You want interactive real-time documentation retrieval inside your IDE (use MCP Server).
