## What are agent skills?

Skills are portable instruction sets that teach AI coding assistants how to use Trigger.dev effectively. Unlike vendor-specific config files (`.cursor/rules`, `CLAUDE.md`), skills use an open standard that works across all major AI assistants. For example, Cursor users and Claude Code users can get the same knowledge from a single install.

Skills are one of three AI tools we provide. You can also install [Agent Rules](/mcp-agent-rules) for client-specific rule sets or the [MCP Server](/mcp-introduction) for live project interaction. See the [comparison table](/building-with-ai#skills-vs-agent-rules-vs-mcp) for details.
