netlify-skills is a Claude Code plugin that installs a set of twelve reference skills describing how core Netlify platform features work. Each skill acts as a factual reference on a specific primitive, such as serverless functions, edge functions, object storage, managed database, image transformation, forms, configuration, framework adapters, caching, AI Gateway, authentication, and deployment, so that an AI coding agent can build correctly on Netlify without consulting external documentation. According to the README, the same skill content is also distributed as generated rule files for Cursor and as skill files for Codex and Copilot CLI. The plugin itself does not contain application logic; it packages documentation-style knowledge for use inside compatible coding agents.
