# Skills

> Pre-built knowledge packs that teach coding agents how to operate Korve.

Skills are markdown knowledge packs (SKILL.md files) that agent harnesses
like Claude Code load on demand. They encode the Korve mental model, the
golden paths, and the troubleshooting recipes so your agent doesn't have to
rediscover them every session.

## Install

```bash theme={null}
curl -fsSL https://korve.dev/skills.sh | sh
```

The installer places the skills where your harness discovers them.

## What's in the box

| Skill                | What it teaches                                                                     |
| -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `korve-platform`     | The platform mental model: orgs, projects, runtime classes, primitives, billing.    |
| `korve-deploy-app`   | The golden path to ship an app: create, connect repo, deploy, verify, troubleshoot. |
| `korve-mcp-setup`    | Wiring any MCP client to `mcp.korve.dev` and using the `search`/`execute` tools.    |
| `korve-cli-setup`    | Installing and configuring the CLI, auth, config precedence, exit codes.            |
| `korve-api-querying` | Calling the REST API directly: auth headers, the error envelope, pagination habits. |

Skills are versioned with the platform; re-run the installer to update.

## Do I need skills if I have MCP?

No — they're complementary. [MCP](/agents/mcp-setup) gives an agent live,
typed access to the API; skills give it the judgment layer: which runtime
class to pick, what to check before creating resources, how to read a
failed deploy. Use both for best results.
