Agent Skills for Streamlit Development

A collection of Agent Skills for building Streamlit applications with AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI-powered development tools.

What are Agent Skills?

Agent Skills are specialized instruction sets that enhance AI coding assistants' capabilities for specific tasks. Each skill contains instructions, scripts, and resources that the AI loads dynamically to improve performance on Streamlit development workflows.

Installation

Claude Code

Copy a skill folder to your Claude Code skills directory:

cp -r skills/streamlit-app-basics ~/.claude/skills/

Or reference skills directly in your project by adding them to your .claude/skills/ directory.

Claude.ai

Copy the contents of a skill's SKILL.md file and paste it into your Claude.ai conversation or upload as a custom skill.

Other AI Assistants

Most AI coding assistants support custom instructions. Copy the relevant SKILL.md content into your assistant's custom instructions or system prompt.
