# Skills

Structured knowledge files that teach AI coding agents how to work with Aftermath's tools, APIs, and protocols.

### Overview

Skills are self-contained Markdown documents designed to be fed into AI agents like [Claude](https://claude.ai/), [OpenCode](https://opencode.ai/), [Cursor](https://cursor.com/), [Windsurf](https://windsurf.com/), [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code), and others. Each skill gives an agent the context, patterns, and best practices it needs to accomplish tasks within a specific part of the Aftermath ecosystem — without needing to figure things out from scratch.

All skills are open source and available in our GitHub repository:

### Usage

#### Claude Projects / Custom Instructions

Copy the contents of the relevant skill file and paste it into your AI agent's system prompt or project knowledge base.

#### Opencode

Copy the relevant skill file `.config/opencode/skills/` folder.

#### Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf

Point the agent at the skill file directly:

```
Read ./skills/api/aftermath-api.md and use it to help me fetch pool data from the Aftermath API.
```

Alternatively, clone the repository into your project and reference skills from there:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/AftermathFinance/skills.git
```

#### MCP or Tool-Augmented Agents

Include the skill file as a resource in your agent's context when making requests related to that domain.
