Quick start
- Choose your skills. Select individual skills above, or choose the entire pack.
- Copy the install prompt. Use Copy install prompt above the list.
- Send it to your agent. Paste into your coding agent’s chat. Your agent reviews the source and guides the setup.
Try it with your agent
After installation, start with a request like:
Use the A2ui Renderer skill to help with my task.
Ask me for the context you need before getting started.Requirements & license
- A coding agent that can access your project files and install skills.
- Your agent checks each skill’s instructions, dependencies, and permissions during setup.
- Reported license for the skills shown: MIT. The author’s terms apply.
