Agent Skills Standard
A CLI-distributed library of coding standards and SDLC skills for AI coding agents across many languages and frameworks, syncing versioned rules into tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Gemini and Windsurf.
Agent Skills Standard packages engineering coding standards into modular, version-controlled skills that AI coding agents can load on demand instead of repeating the same instructions in every prompt. A CLI called ags initializes and syncs 280 ready-made standards covering multiple programming languages and frameworks into the agent tools a team already uses.
The project targets AI tools including Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Gemini, Windsurf, Trae, Kiro and Roo. Recent releases add an OWASP Agentic Skills Top 10 hardening pass, a skill-content lockfile, a verification command, and enforcing hooks with secret and dependency scanning; the latest release also lets the skill validator accept package directories for a diagram-pipeline component.
It is distributed through npm as agent-skills-standard.
