skardi-skills

Agent Skills for working with Skardi — a backend engine to provide SQL pipelines as http endpoints. These skills give your AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, or any Agent Skills-compatible tool) deep knowledge of Skardi's patterns so you don't have to re-explain them each session.

Check out our demo here.

Available skills

Directory	Skill name	What it covers
skardi_on_sealos/	skardi-deploy-and-patterns	Core Skardi concepts (auth, pipelines, CSRF, DataFusion SQL dialect) + deploying to Sealos via kubectl
auto_knowledge_base/	auto_knowledge_base	Agent-autonomous knowledge-base construction — turn any directory of text/markdown into a queryable KB using Skardi CLI + SQLite + sqlite-vec + FTS5 (Postgres/pgvector and Lance supported as overrides). Handles prereq detection, model download, chunking, ingest, and hybrid (vector + full-text + RRF) retrieval end-to-end. Supports candle, gguf, and remote_embed UDFs.
auto_rag/	auto_rag	Server-backed RAG over a user-supplied datastore (Postgres+pgvector, MongoDB, or Lance) — runs skardi-server in front of the user's DB so retrieval lives on a network endpoint instead of a local SQLite file. Renders ctx + ingest/search-vector/search-fulltext/search-hybrid pipelines, starts the server (local-process / Docker / Kubernetes), drives ingestion and querying over HTTP, and embeds client-side via the host CLI so the same templates run unchanged across all three runtimes. Never creates schema for the user — prints the SQL and waits.

Installation

Claude Code (plugin marketplace, recommended)

All three skills are published as plugins in this repo. From inside any Claude Code session:

/plugin marketplace add SkardiLabs/skardi-skills
/plugin install skardi-deploy-and-patterns@skardi-skills
/plugin install auto-knowledge-base@skardi-skills
/plugin install auto-rag@skardi-skills

That's it — the skills are now available across all your projects, and /plugin marketplace update skardi-skills pulls future versions.

Claude Code (manual copy)

If you'd rather not use the plugin marketplace, copy the skill(s) into your personal skills directory so they're available across all projects:

# skardi-deploy-and-patterns (deployment + core concepts)
cp -r skardi_on_sealos/skills/skardi-deploy-and-patterns ~/.claude/skills/skardi-deploy-and-patterns

# auto_knowledge_base (agent-autonomous KB construction)
cp -r auto_knowledge_base/skills/auto_knowledge_base ~/.claude/skills/auto_knowledge_base

# auto_rag (server-backed RAG over a user-supplied datastore)
cp -r auto_rag/skills/auto_rag ~/.claude/skills/auto_rag

Claude Code will automatically load the relevant skill when your request matches it — e.g. deployment/auth/pipelines for skardi-deploy-and-patterns, "index these docs" / "build a RAG" / "make this folder searchable" for auto_knowledge_base, or "expose hybrid search as HTTP" / "RAG service over our pgvector DB" / "skardi-server with MongoDB" for auto_rag. You can also invoke any of them directly:

/skardi-deploy-and-patterns
/auto_knowledge_base
/auto_rag

Cursor

Copy the skill(s) into the project-level skills directory:

# skardi-deploy-and-patterns
cp -r skardi_on_sealos/skills/skardi-deploy-and-patterns .cursor/skills/skardi-deploy-and-patterns

# auto_knowledge_base
cp -r auto_knowledge_base/skills/auto_knowledge_base .cursor/skills/auto_knowledge_base

# auto_rag
cp -r auto_rag/skills/auto_rag .cursor/skills/auto_rag

Other Agent Skills-compatible tools

The SKILL.md files follow the Agent Skills open standard and work with any compatible tool. Place the skill directory wherever your tool resolves personal or project skills.
