# Agent Skill

## Agent Skill

AICre8 is available as an AI agent skill, allowing any compatible AI agent to build and deploy websites through AICre8's infrastructure.

### What Is an Agent Skill?

An agent skill is a capability that AI agents (like Claude, ChatGPT, or custom agents) can use as a tool. When an AI agent has the AICre8 skill installed, it can:

* Create new web projects
* Generate code from natural language prompts
* Read and write files in the project sandbox
* Run shell commands (npm install, build, etc.)
* Deploy to a live branded URL

### Available On

#### souls.zip

AICre8 is listed as an agent skill on [souls.zip](https://souls.zip), the marketplace for AI agent skills. Install it to give your AI agent web development capabilities.

#### MCP Server (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code)

The AICre8 MCP server wraps the REST API as agent tools. See the REST API & MCP Server page for setup instructions.

### Available Tools

When an AI agent connects to AICre8, it gets access to these tools:

| Tool             | Description                                             |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| `list_projects`  | List all projects in the user's account                 |
| `create_project` | Create a new project with optional name and access type |
| `generate_code`  | Send a prompt to generate or modify code using AI       |
| `read_file`      | Read a file from the project sandbox                    |
| `write_file`     | Write or update a file in the project sandbox           |
| `run_command`    | Execute a shell command in the sandbox                  |
| `deploy_project` | Deploy the project to a live branded URL                |

### Example Workflow

A user tells their AI agent:

> "Create a landing page for my coffee shop called Bean & Brew with a dark theme and online ordering"

The agent:

1. Calls `create_project` with name "Bean & Brew"
2. Calls `generate_code` with the full prompt
3. AICre8 generates the complete site with AI
4. Calls `deploy_project` to publish
5. Returns the live branded URL to the user

The entire flow happens programmatically — no browser or manual interaction needed.

### Credits

Agent skill usage deducts from the same credit balance as the AICre8 UI. Each `generate_code` call costs 1 credit. The MCP server and agent skill wrapper are free — billing flows through your AICre8 account.

### Getting Started

1. Get your API key from [AICre8 Settings](https://aicre8.dev/settings)
2. Install the skill on your preferred platform (souls.zip, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Claude Code)
3. Start building with natural language
