AI Skills

AI Skills  are Claude Code skill files that provide AI-assistant reference guides for Reagraph. Skills contain component APIs, usage patterns, theming details, and code examples derived from source code and stories.

When installed, Claude Code automatically loads the relevant skill files when it encounters Reagraph components in your code, giving it deep knowledge of the component APIs, props, and usage patterns.

Available Components

Installation

The simplest way to install Reagraph skills is with the skills CLI — run it from your project root:

npx skills add reaviz/skills

This downloads the Reagraph skill tree into your project’s .claude/skills/ directory, where Claude Code will pick it up automatically.

You can also browse and grab the skill from the Skills Marketplace .

If you prefer to manage the files manually, choose one of the methods below instead.

Option 1: Project-level (recommended for teams)

Copy or symlink the Reagraph skills into your project’s .claude/skills/ folder:

# From your project root
mkdir -p .claude/skills
 
# Symlink the reagraph skill tree
ln -s /path/to/reaviz/skills/reagraph .claude/skills/reagraph

Skills placed in .claude/skills/ are committed to version control and shared with all team members.

Option 2: User-level (personal, all projects)

Copy or symlink skills into ~/.claude/skills/ to make them available across all your projects:

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
 
# Symlink the library
ln -s /path/to/reaviz/skills/reagraph ~/.claude/skills/reagraph

User-level skills are not shared with other team members.

Option 3: --add-dir flag (per-session)

Point Claude Code to the skills repository at launch. Skills inside .claude/skills/ of added directories are discovered automatically:

claude --add-dir /path/to/reaviz/skills

This grants file access for the current session only.

Verifying Installation

Once installed, Claude Code will automatically load the relevant skill files when it encounters Reagraph components in your code. You can verify by asking Claude Code about a specific component:

> How do I use the reagraph GraphCanvas component?

Claude Code should respond with API details, props, and examples sourced from the skill files.
