Overview

Claude Skills are specialized knowledge modules that enhance AI agents' understanding of the Fluent Commerce platform. When installed, these skills provide AI assistants like Claude Code with deep context about Fluent's architecture, development patterns, and best practices.

Key points

Understand Fluent Platform: Learn about OMX, Mystique, Rubix workflows, and platform architecture
Navigate Complex Structures: Analyze large workflow and manifest JSON files efficiently
Follow Best Practices: Apply Fluent-specific patterns when building components and rules
Accelerate Development: Reduce the need to repeatedly explain platform concepts

What Are Skills?

Skills are structured documentation files that help AI agents:

Understand Fluent Platform: Learn about OMX, Mystique, Rubix workflows, and platform architecture
Navigate Complex Structures: Analyze large workflow and manifest JSON files efficiently
Follow Best Practices: Apply Fluent-specific patterns when building components and rules
Accelerate Development: Reduce the need to repeatedly explain platform concepts

Some of the skills assume that the CLI is installed, configured, and available on the agent's PATH.

Available Agents

The Fluent CLI supports installing skills for multiple AI agents:

claude - Claude Code (default)
opencode - OpenCode
antigravity - Google Antigravity
cursor - Cursor
copilot - GitHub Copilot

Installation

Install to Current Project

Install skills to your current project's local directory:

1fluent ai install-skills

This installs skills to `.claude/skills/` in your current directory. Skills are only available when working within this project.

Install Globally

Install skills globally to make them available across all projects:

1fluent ai install-skills --global

Global installation locations:

Claude Code: `~/.claude/skills/`
OpenCode: `~/.agents/skills/`
Antigravity: `~/.gemini/antigravity/skills/`
Cursor: `~/.cursor/skills/`
Copilot: `~/.github/copilot/skills/`

Install for Specific Agent

Install skills for a different AI agent:

1fluent ai install-skills --agent cursor
2fluent ai install-skills --agent copilot --global

Install to Custom Directory

Some users have multiple workspaces for their coding agents, so don't use the standard config locations.To install skills to a specific directory:

1fluent ai install-skills --folder /path/to/my/skills

Included Skills

The Fluent CLI includes several specialized skills:

Platform Understanding

fluent-understand - Overview of Fluent Commerce, OMX, Mystique, and Rubix
fluent-workflow-rubix - Workflow analysis and modification guidance

Mystique (Frontend) Development

fluent-mystique-component-build - Building custom Mystique components
fluent-mystique-component-list - Core components reference
fluent-mystique-manifest-configure - Manifest configuration patterns
fluent-mystique-manifest-load-and-save - Manifest operations via MCP

Rubix (Backend) Development

fluent-rubix-build - Building custom Rubix rules
fluent-rubix-review - Rule code review patterns
fluent-rubix-test - Testing Rubix rules
fluent-rubix-understand - Rubix framework overview
fluent-rubix-util-core - Core utility library reference
fluent-rubix-util-dynamic - Dynamic utility library reference
fluent-rubix-util-test - Test utility library reference

Using Skills with Claude Code

Once skills are installed, Claude Code automatically discovers and uses them when relevant. You don't need to explicitly invoke them - Claude will reference skills when:

Analyzing workflow or manifest JSON files
Building custom components or rules
Answering questions about the Fluent platform
Suggesting implementation patterns

Example interaction:

1You: What processes are there in my order home delivery workflow?
2
3● Skill(fluent-workflow-rubix)
4  ⎿  Successfully loaded skill
5
6Claude: I can use the fluent workflow summarize command to analyze 
7this workflow efficiently. Let me run that...

Verifying Installation

After installation, check that skills were installed correctly:

1# For local installation
2ls .claude/skills/
3
4# For global installation (Claude Code)
5ls ~/.claude/skills/

You should see directories for each skill, with each containing a `SKILL.md` file.

Updating Skills

To update skills to the latest version, simply run the install command again:`fluent ai install-skills --global`This will overwrite existing skills with the latest versions bundled with your CLI installation.
