netlify/netlify-skills

v1.3.0MIT

Netlify platform skills — functions, edge functions, blobs, database, identity, image CDN, forms, config, CLI, frameworks, caching, AI gateway, and deployment — plus the official Netlify MCP server.

netlify-skills — Agent Plugin

An Agent Plugins spec-compliant package (v1.0.0) bundling Netlify platform skills and the official Netlify MCP server. Any conformant Agent Plugins client (Cursor, and other clients from the TSC ecosystem — Amazon, Microsoft, OpenAI, Vercel) can discover and load it.

Components

  • Skills — Factual, framework-neutral reference for Netlify primitives: access control, agent runner, AI gateway, blobs, caching, config, database, deploy, edge functions, forms, frameworks, functions, identity, image CDN, and MCP servers. Each is a directory under skills/ containing a SKILL.md (Agent Skills format).
  • MCP — The official hosted Netlify MCP server (https://netlify-mcp.netlify.app/mcp, streamable HTTP). It authorizes via OAuth on first connection — no token or local install required — letting the agent create and manage Netlify projects, deploys, and environment variables.

Regenerating

skills/ is the source of truth for the whole repository. The skills/ tree in this package is mirrored from it. Rebuild with:

bash scripts/build-agent-plugin.sh

Do not edit agent-plugin/skills/ directly — edit the top-level skills/ directory and rerun the build.

Spec conformance notes

  • plugin.json declares the required $schema and a name that satisfies the 1–64 char, lowercase-alphanumeric-with-hyphens constraint.
  • mcp.json $schema version matches plugin.json's spec version (1.0.0), as required — a mismatch would disable MCP for the plugin.
  • The MCP server uses type: "streamable-http" (the spec transport name) over HTTPS, with no user info, fragments, or non-portable fields.
  • All paths resolve within the plugin root; nothing escapes the package boundary.
