@workos/skills

WorkOS skills for AI coding agents. Two skills and 40 reference files covering AuthKit, SSO, Directory Sync, RBAC, Vault, Migrations, backend SDKs, and more.

Install as Claude Code Plugin

This installs two skills: workos and workos-widgets. The workos skill acts as a router that automatically loads the right reference for your task (AuthKit setup, SSO, migrations, etc.) so you don't need to install references individually.

Works with Claude Code, Codex, Goose, and any agent that supports the skills.sh format.

Install as Cursor Plugin

Install from the Cursor Marketplace (search "WorkOS"), or clone and symlink locally — see Local Development below.

Install as npm Package

For programmatic access to skill/reference content (e.g., from the WorkOS CLI):

Path helpers are also available for consumers that need file paths (e.g., skill discovery):

Exports

| Function | Returns |

| getReference(name) | Promise — reference file content | | getSkill(skillName) | Promise — skill SKILL.md content | | getReferencePath(name) | Absolute path to references/{name}.md | | getSkillsDir() | Absolute path to the skills/ directory | | getSkillPath(skillName) | Absolute path to skills/{skillName}/SKILL.md |

Skills

Two registered skills:

| Skill | Description |

| workos | Router — identifies which reference to load based on the user's task | | workos-widgets | Multi-framework widget integration with on-demand OpenAPI spec querying |

Everything else is a reference file under references/. The router dispatches to the right reference via progressive disclosure.

References

Note: References are not standalone skills. They are loaded automatically by the workos skill based on your task. You do not need to install them individually.

Development

Local Cursor development

Cursor loads local plugins from ~/.cursor/plugins/local/. Symlink this repo's plugin directory, then reload Cursor:

Then in Cursor: Cmd+Shift+P → Developer: Reload Window (or fully quit and relaunch Cursor if the reload doesn't pick up new skills).

Eval framework

Measures whether skills improve agent-generated code. Each case runs the same prompt with and without the skill, scores both outputs, and reports the delta.

How it works

Each reference file follows the same pattern:

1. Doc URLs — source of truth links (agent fetches these first) 2. Gotchas — non-obvious traps the LLM gets wrong from training data 3. Endpoints (optional) — API endpoint table for quick reference

AuthKit and backend SDK references are richer — they include step-by-step installation instructions, decision trees, verification checklists, and error recovery.

The router (workos/SKILL.md) maps user intent to the right reference file.
