# Skills

Skills are folders of instructions that a coding agent loads when a task needs
them. The Elios skills teach your agent the right APIs, commands and defaults,
so it writes working Elios code the first time.

## Install

```bash
bunx skills add eliosai/skills
```

The installer finds the agents on your machine, such as Claude Code, Codex and
Cursor, and adds the skills where each one looks for them.

## Available skills

| Skill            | Teaches your agent to                                          |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `elios-computer` | Create, snapshot and scale computers, and run work on them.    |
| `elios-phone`    | Get numbers, answer and place calls, and send messages.        |
| `elios-cli`      | Choose the right `elios` command and read its `--json` output. |

## Use a skill

Ask for the task in plain words, for example "start an Elios computer and run
my tests on it". Your agent loads the matching skill by itself.

Skills and these docs stay in step: each skill links to the pages it is based
on, and every page is available to agents as Markdown.
