Agent skills
Cecil provides agent skills: instructions that AI coding agents (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.) load to work with Cecil the right way, following its conventions.
| Skill | Use it to |
|---|---|
cecil |
Create, configure, build and deploy a site: content, front matter, templates, assets, configuration, etc. |
cecil-theme |
Create, structure and package a theme (visual theme or component theme) for Composer. |
Install
With the GitHub CLI:
gh skill install cecilapp/cecil
Or with npx skills:
npx skills add cecilapp/cecil
Usage
Once installed, ask your agent to create, build, configure or deploy a Cecil site, or to create a theme: it uses the matching skill automatically.
Examples of prompts:
- “Create a Cecil blog with an English and a French version.”
- “Add a
projectssection with a list of cards on the homepage.” - “Turn the layouts of this site into a reusable Cecil theme.”
