  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads llm-application-dev automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

LLM Application Development

Prompt Engineering

Structured Prompts

const systemPrompt = `You are a helpful assistant that answers questions about our product.

RULES:
- Only answer questions about our product
- If you don't know, say "I don't know"
- Keep responses concise (under 100 words)
- Never make up information

CONTEXT:
{context}`;

const userPrompt = `Question: {question}`;

Few-Shot Examples

const prompt = `Classify the sentiment of customer feedback.

Examples:
Input: "Love this product!"
Output: positive

Input: "Worst purchase ever"
Output: negative

Input: "It works fine"
Output: neutral

Input: "${customerFeedback}"
Output:`;

Chain of Thought

const prompt = `Solve this step by step:

Question: ${question}

Let's think through this:
1. First, identify the key information
2. Then, determine the approach
3. Finally, calculate the answer

Step-by-step solution:`;

API Integration

OpenAI Pattern

import OpenAI from 'openai';

const openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY });

async function chat(messages: Message[]): Promise<string> {
  const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
    model: 'gpt-4',
    messages,
    temperature: 0.7,
    max_tokens: 500,
  });

  return response.choices[0].message.content ?? '';
}

Anthropic Pattern

import Anthropic from '@anthropic-ai/sdk';

const anthropic = new Anthropic({ apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY });

async function chat(prompt: string): Promise<string> {
  const response = await anthropic.messages.create({
    model: 'claude-3-opus-20240229',
    max_tokens: 1024,
    messages: [{ role: 'user', content: prompt }],
  });

  return response.content[0].type === 'text'
    ? response.content[0].text
    : '';
}

Streaming Responses

async function* streamChat(prompt: string) {
  const stream = await openai.chat.completions.create({
    model: 'gpt-4',
    messages: [{ role: 'user', content: prompt }],
    stream: true,
  });

  for await (const chunk of stream) {
    const content = chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content;
    if (content) yield content;
  }
}

RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)

Basic RAG Pipeline

async function ragQuery(question: string): Promise<string> {
  // 1. Embed the question
  const questionEmbedding = await embedText(question);

  // 2. Search vector database
  const relevantDocs = await vectorDb.search(questionEmbedding, { limit: 5 });

  // 3. Build context
  const context = relevantDocs.map(d => d.content).join('\n\n');

  // 4. Generate answer
  const prompt = `Answer based on this context:\n${context}\n\nQuestion: ${question}`;
  return await chat(prompt);
}

Document Chunking

function chunkDocument(text: string, options: ChunkOptions): string[] {
  const { chunkSize = 1000, overlap = 200 } = options;
  const chunks: string[] = [];

  let start = 0;
  while (start < text.length) {
    const end = Math.min(start + chunkSize, text.length);
    chunks.push(text.slice(start, end));
    start += chunkSize - overlap;
  }

  return chunks;
}

Embedding Storage

// Using Supabase with pgvector
async function storeEmbeddings(docs: Document[]) {
  for (const doc of docs) {
    const embedding = await embedText(doc.content);

    await supabase.from('documents').insert({
      content: doc.content,
      metadata: doc.metadata,
      embedding: embedding,  // vector column
    });
  }
}

async function searchSimilar(query: string, limit = 5) {
  const embedding = await embedText(query);

  const { data } = await supabase.rpc('match_documents', {
    query_embedding: embedding,
    match_count: limit,
  });

  return data;
}

Error Handling

async function safeLLMCall<T>(
  fn: () => Promise<T>,
  options: { retries?: number; fallback?: T }
): Promise<T> {
  const { retries = 3, fallback } = options;

  for (let i = 0; i < retries; i++) {
    try {
      return await fn();
    } catch (error) {
      if (error.status === 429) {
        // Rate limit - exponential backoff
        await sleep(Math.pow(2, i) * 1000);
        continue;
      }
      if (i === retries - 1) {
        if (fallback !== undefined) return fallback;
        throw error;
      }
    }
  }
  throw new Error('Max retries exceeded');
}

Best Practices

  • Token Management: Track usage and set limits
  • Caching: Cache embeddings and common queries
  • Evaluation: Test prompts with diverse inputs
  • Guardrails: Validate outputs before using
  • Logging: Log prompts and responses for debugging
  • Cost Control: Use cheaper models for simple tasks
  • Latency: Stream responses for better UX
  • Privacy: Don't send PII to external APIs

google-agents-cli-publish

google/agents-cli

This skill should be used when the user wants to "publish an agent", "publish my ADK agent", "register an agent with Gemini", "publish to Gemini" (formerly Gemini Enterprise), or needs guidance on the agents-cli publish gemini command. Also use when the user wants to "manage agents in Agent Registry", "list/update/delete registered agents", or "register an MCP server". Covers ADK vs A2A registration modes, programmatic and interactive usage, flag reference, auto-detection from deployment metadata, Agent Registry fleet management, and troubleshooting. Part of the agents-cli skills suite. Do NOT use for deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy).

This skill should be used when the user wants to "run an evaluation", "evaluate my agent", "evaluate my ADK agent", "write an eval dataset", "analyze eval failures", "compare eval results", "optimize agent", or needs guidance on the Gemini platform eval methodology and the Quality Flywheel. Covers eval metrics, dataset schema, LLM-as-judge scoring, and common failure causes. Applies to any agents-cli project, whatever framework the agent is written in. Do NOT use for agent API code patterns (ADK: use google-agents-cli-adk-code), deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy), or project scaffolding (use google-agents-cli-scaffold).

codex-pet

prime-skills/runcomfy-agent-skills

Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Build a Codex-compatible Codex Pet spritesheet.webp + pet.json from a single reference image, drop it into ${CODEXHOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/ / and Codex picks it up as a custom Codex Pet next to the 8 built-ins. This skill produces the exact Codex Pet atlas Codex expects (1536x1872 PNG/WebP, 8 cols x 9 rows, 192x208 cells, 9 animation states — idle, running-right, running-left, waving, jumping, failed, waiting, running, review). Calls OpenAI GPT Image 2 edit ONCE via the local RunComfy CLI as runcomfy run openai/gpt-image-2/edit to produce a canonical Codex Pet pose, then assembles all 9 animation rows programmatically with ImageMagick micro-transforms — no Codex Pro, no $imagegen, no OPENAIAPIKEY required, only RUNCOMFYTOKEN. Triggers on "codex pet", "create codex pet", "make codex pet", "hatch codex pet", "/hatch image", "desktop pet codex", "codex pets", "spritesheet.webp", or any explicit ask to build a custom pet for OpenAI Codex.
