Skills

The Factorial Code Skills are what make your AI agent fluent in Factorial today. They teach your coding assistant how to work with the platform — writing processes and modules, using the CLI, authoring input parameter schemas, and embedding forms — so it builds correct code from your first prompt.

They are published as Agent Skills in the factorialco/factorial-code-skills repository and install into any skills-compatible assistant (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and more).

You meet them as part of onboarding: fcode clone sets them up by default, so your agent knows the platform from your first prompt — no manual setup.

Install

Use skills to install them once and keep them updated:

# Install all skills
npx skills add factorialco/factorial-code-skills

# Install a specific skill
npx skills add factorialco/factorial-code-skills --skill fcode-javascript

Tip

fcode clone sets these skills up for you by default — it runs npx skills add so you can choose the scope (project or global) and which assistants. Pass --skipSkillsSetup to skip it.
