@workos/skills

WorkOS skills for AI coding agents. Two skills and 40 reference files covering AuthKit, SSO, Directory Sync, RBAC, Vault, Migrations, backend SDKs, and more.

Install as Claude Code Plugin

npx skills add workos/skills

This installs two skills: workos and workos-widgets. The workos skill acts as a router that automatically loads the right reference for your task (AuthKit setup, SSO, migrations, etc.) so you don't need to install references individually.

Works with Claude Code, Codex, Goose, and any agent that supports the skills.sh format.

Install as Cursor Plugin

Install from the Cursor Marketplace (search "WorkOS"), or clone and symlink locally — see Local Development below.

Install as npm Package

For programmatic access to skill/reference content (e.g., from the WorkOS CLI):

npm install @workos/skills

import { getReference, getSkill } from '@workos/skills';

// Read reference content directly
const content = await getReference('workos-authkit-nextjs');

// Read a skill's SKILL.md content
const router = await getSkill('workos');

Path helpers are also available for consumers that need file paths (e.g., skill discovery):

import { getReferencePath, getSkillsDir, getSkillPath } from '@workos/skills';

const refPath = getReferencePath('workos-authkit-nextjs'); // absolute path to .md file
const skillsDir = getSkillsDir(); // directory containing workos/ and workos-widgets/
const skillPath = getSkillPath('workos'); // absolute path to SKILL.md

Exports

Function	Returns
getReference(name)	Promise<string> — reference file content
getSkill(skillName)	Promise<string> — skill SKILL.md content
getReferencePath(name)	Absolute path to references/{name}.md
getSkillsDir()	Absolute path to the skills/ directory
getSkillPath(skillName)	Absolute path to skills/{skillName}/SKILL.md

Skills

Two registered skills:

Skill	Description
workos	Router — identifies which reference to load based on the user's task
workos-widgets	Multi-framework widget integration with on-demand OpenAPI spec querying

Everything else is a reference file under references/. The router dispatches to the right reference via progressive disclosure.

References

Note: References are not standalone skills. They are loaded automatically by the workos skill based on your task. You do not need to install them individually.
