# Agent Skill

> Teach your agent AgentCard workflows with the installable skill

The AgentCard **skill** is a markdown playbook your agent loads alongside the MCP server. The MCP server provides the tools; the skill teaches the agent how to use them well — wallet funding and the one-time verification flow, the card-creation ladder (identity → verification → funding), single-use vs multi-use cards, shopping with `buy`, safety rules (never expose PAN/CVV unprompted, confirm before spending), and error recovery.

## Install

With the CLI (sha256-verified):

```bash theme={null}
agent-cards api skill install agent-card
```

`agent-cards api skill list` shows everything published. Or via skills.sh:

```bash theme={null}
npx skills add tiny-agent-company/agent-card-skill
```

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, and any agent that supports [skills.sh](https://skills.sh).

## Get it directly

The skill is also published at a stable URL your agent can fetch:

```
https://www.agentcard.sh/.well-known/agent-skills/agent-card/SKILL.md
```

The machine-readable index (with checksum) lives at `https://www.agentcard.sh/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json`.

## Pair it with the MCP server

The skill assumes the AgentCard MCP server is connected — see the [MCP Overview](/personal/mcp/overview). One-liner for Claude Code:

```bash theme={null}
agent-cards setup-mcp
```

You need both: the skill is the *how* (workflows, guardrails), the MCP server is the *what* (the tools themselves).
