Agent Skills
Agent skills are structured instruction files that AI coding agents load automatically. Each skill focuses on a specific domain and includes step-by-step guidance, code patterns, and references to the relevant documentation.
The official Zuplo skills live in
zuplo/tools. They cover gateway
configuration, monetization, the CLI, and the Zudoku developer portal — so
agents have task-specific playbooks instead of relying on training data that may
be out of date.
Available skills
Zuplo
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| zuplo-guide | Comprehensive gateway guide — documentation lookup, request pipeline, route and policy configuration, custom handlers, and deployment. Start here for general Zuplo development. |
| zuplo-monetization | API monetization — meters, plans, Stripe billing, subscriptions, usage tracking, private plans, and tax collection. |
| zuplo-cli | CLI reference — local development, deployment, environment variables, tunnels, OpenAPI tools, mTLS, and project management. |
Zudoku (Developer Portal)
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| zudoku-guide | Comprehensive Zudoku framework guide — setup, configuration, OpenAPI integration, plugins, auth, theming, troubleshooting, and migrations. |
Installation
Claude Code
Register the repo as a plugin marketplace, then install the skills:
Code
Cursor
Open Cursor Settings → Rules → Add Rule → Remote Rule (GitHub) and enter
https://github.com/zuplo/tools. Or copy the skill directories into your
project:
Code
Skills placed in .cursor/skills/, .agents/skills/, or ~/.cursor/skills/
are auto-discovered.
GitHub Copilot and VS Code
Copilot reads AGENTS.md at the repo root automatically. Add the Zuplo
AGENTS.md to your project for project-level context:
Code
You can also use the /create-skill command in Copilot chat and reference the
skills in zuplo/tools as a starting point.
Codex (OpenAI)
Codex reads AGENTS.md at the repo root. Add the Zuplo AGENTS.md to your
project so Codex picks up project-level context.
Using the skills CLI
The cross-client
skills CLI
installs skills directly:
Code
Or via .well-known discovery:
Code
Manual install
Code
Then copy the skill directories you need into your project's skills directory.
How skills find documentation
All Zuplo skills look up documentation in this order:
- Local docs from
node_modules/zuplo/docs/(preferred). Thezuplonpm package ships with the full Zuplo documentation, version-matched to your installed Zuplo version. See AI Coding Agents for setup details. - The Zuplo Docs MCP server for search and Q&A across the full documentation.
- Fetch docs via URL as a fallback (
https://zuplo.com/docs/).
Combine the skills with the Zuplo MCP server to let your agent both write the code and operate the gateway — for example, scaffold a route locally, then deploy and inspect logs without leaving the session.
