# skill.md

> Integrate LynxHub capabilities and actionable workflows into AI agents using skill.md.

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](https://agentskills.io/specification) 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.

## Hosted skill URL

You can access the LynxHub skill file at:

* **Skill File:** [`https://docs.lynxhub.app/skill.md`](https://docs.lynxhub.app/skill.md)

## 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:

```bash theme={null}
npx skills add https://docs.lynxhub.app/
```

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](/ai-agents/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.

  <Card title="Use skill.md when" icon="check">
    * 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.

  <Card title="Use other methods when" icon="xmark">
    * You only need to search or reference standard text documentation (use [llms.txt](/ai-agents/llms-txt)).
    * You want interactive real-time documentation retrieval inside your IDE (use [MCP Server](/ai-agents/mcp-server)).
