Agent Skills
Install the Egon skills once, and your coding agent knows where the documentation is, how to authenticate, how to run a batch job, and how to keep your data safe.
Each skill is a single SKILL.md file that links to the markdown pages of this site, and egon-api also to the OpenAPI schema, so the agent always reads the current documentation.
The egon-api Skill
The egon-api skill gives your agent the base URL, the authentication header, the key safety rules, and every service of the Egon API.
The egon-batch Skill
The egon-batch skill teaches your agent how Egon Batch works on this site: how to prepare the address file, run the job, and read the output, with links to every Batch page.
Install with the Skills CLI
Run this in your project. The CLI asks which skills and agents to set up, then copies each skill into the folder each agent reads.
npx skills add https://documentation.egon.com
The CLI finds the skills through /.well-known/agent-skills/index.json, which every build of this site publishes.
Install Manually
Copy each SKILL.md into a folder named after its skill:
| Agent | Folder |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | .claude/skills/<name>/ |
Codex, Cursor, and other agents that read .agents/skills/ | .agents/skills/<name>/ |
For Claude Code, run this in your project. For other agents, replace .claude with .agents.
mkdir -p .claude/skills/egon-api && curl -fsSLo .claude/skills/egon-api/SKILL.md https://documentation.egon.com/skills/egon-api/SKILL.md
mkdir -p .claude/skills/egon-batch && curl -fsSLo .claude/skills/egon-batch/SKILL.md https://documentation.egon.com/skills/egon-batch/SKILL.md
Check the Setup
Start a new session and ask:
Do you have the egon-api and egon-batch skills? Show the base URL and the authentication header the egon-api skill tells you to use, and the steps the egon-batch skill gives to run a batch job.
To add Egon to your project instructions instead, see Coding Agents.
