Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/reason-machines/ai-agent-skills --skill awesome-agentic-ai-zh-learning
  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 awesome-agentic-ai-zh-learning 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.

awesome-agentic-ai-zh Learning Skill

Skill by ara.so — AI Agent Skills collection.

Overview

awesome-agentic-ai-zh is a comprehensive, structured learning roadmap for AI Agent development that takes you from LLM basics to building multi-agent systems. It provides:

  • Two learning tracks: Track A (CLI Power User) and Track B (Agent Builder)
  • 8 core stages with 145+ curated projects and resources
  • 27 hands-on exercises with working code examples
  • Bilingual content (Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English)
  • 5 specialized branches for researchers, developers, teachers, knowledge workers, and everyday users

The project is particularly valuable for understanding the Claude Code ecosystem (MCP, Skills, Plugins, Subagents) and modern agent interfaces (Computer Use, Browser Use, Code Sandbox).

Installation & Setup

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/WenyuChiou/awesome-agentic-ai-zh.git

# No additional dependencies for reading the roadmap
# Individual exercises may require Python and specific libraries

For complete setup (first-time learners):

# Read the setup guide first
cat resources/setup-guide.md

# Install Python 3.8+ if needed
python --version

# Install common dependencies for exercises
pip install anthropic openai langchain chromadb

Running Exercises

Each stage has 1-5 exercises in exercises/stage-X/:

# Example: Stage 1 - First LLM API call
# exercises/stage-1/01-first-llm-call/main.py

import os
from anthropic import Anthropic

def main():
    client = Anthropic(api_key=os.environ.get("ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"))
    
    message = client.messages.create(
        model="claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022",
        max_tokens=1024,
        messages=[
            {"role": "user", "content": "Explain AI agents in one sentence."}
        ]
    )
    
    print(message.content[0].text)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
# Set up environment
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-key-here"

# Run exercise
python exercises/stage-1/01-first-llm-call/main.py

Dual-Path SDK Examples

Most exercises provide both Anthropic SDK and Ollama (local) implementations:

# Using Anthropic Claude
from anthropic import Anthropic

client = Anthropic(api_key=os.environ.get("ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"))
response = client.messages.create(
    model="claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022",
    max_tokens=1024,
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)

# Using Ollama (local)
import ollama

response = ollama.chat(
    model="llama3.2",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
)

Configuration Patterns

API Key Management

# Set environment variables (recommended)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."

# Or use .env file
cat > .env << EOF
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
EOF

# Load in Python
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

Local LLM Setup (Ollama)

# Install Ollama
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh

# Pull a model
ollama pull llama3.2

# Test
ollama run llama3.2 "Explain what an AI agent is"

Common Usage Patterns

Pattern 1: Following the Learning Path

# For complete beginners
cat stages/00-foundations.md
# → Complete exercises in exercises/stage-0/

# Then proceed sequentially
cat stages/01-llm-basics.md
cat stages/02-prompt-engineering.md

# Choose your track
cat tracks/cli/A1-cli-intro.md    # OR
cat stages/03-tool-use-and-hello-agent.md

Pattern 2: Quick Reference for Specific Topics

                    }
                ]
            )
    
    print(response.content[0].text)

MCP (Model Context Protocol) Integration

Stage 5 covers the Claude Code ecosystem. Key MCP concepts:

# Example MCP server structure
# See stages/05-claude-code-ecosystem.md for details

from mcp.server import Server
from mcp.types import Tool, TextContent

app = Server("my-mcp-server")

@app.tool()
async def get_document(doc_id: str) -> str:
    """Fetch document by ID"""
    # Your implementation
    return f"Document content for {doc_id}"

@app.tool()
async def search_database(query: str) -> list:
    """Search internal database"""
    # Your implementation
    return [{"id": "1", "title": "Result"}]

Using MCP with Claude Desktop

// ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "my-server": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/path/to/your/mcp_server.py"]
    }
  }
}

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: "API key not found"

# Verify environment variable
echo $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

# Set it if missing
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."

Issue: "Module not found"

# Install required package
pip install anthropic

# For exercises requiring multiple packages
pip install -r requirements.txt

Issue: "Ollama connection refused"

# Check if Ollama is running
curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags

# Start Ollama if needed
ollama serve

Issue: "Which stage should I start from?"

  • Have Python/git basics? → Start Stage 1
  • Complete beginner? → Start Stage 0
  • Want to use CLI agents without coding? → Go directly to Track A (A1-cli-intro.md)

# CLI-specific issues

Best Practices

  1. Follow the path sequentially — Each stage builds on previous knowledge
  2. Complete the exercises — 27 hands-on exercises are designed for learning by doing
  3. Use dual-path approach — Try both cloud APIs (Anthropic/OpenAI) and local models (Ollama)
  4. Check the glossary — resources/glossary.md has all terminology in Chinese + English
  5. Join the community — The project welcomes contributions and questions
  6. Set realistic expectations — Track B takes 5-7 months part-time; Track A takes 8-10 weeks

Example: Complete Agent Build

See walkthroughs/build-first-agent-in-7-steps.md for a 350-line Paper Summary Bot that evolves from Stage 1 to Stage 7, demonstrating:

  • LLM API basics (Stage 1)
  • Prompt engineering (Stage 2)
  • Tool use and ReAct (Stage 3)
  • Framework integration with LangGraph (Stage 4)
  • Memory and RAG (Stage 6)
  • Multi-agent orchestration (Stage 7)

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.
