emacs-skills

Claude Code skills for Emacs integration.

These skills enable tighter integration with agents running inside Emacs, for example agent-shell.

Skills

/dired

Open files from the latest agent interaction in an Emacs dired buffer via emacsclient.

• Same directory: Opens dired at the parent directory with the relevant files marked, showing them in context alongside sibling files.
• Multiple directories: Creates a curated *agent-files* dired buffer containing only the relevant files, using relative paths from a common ancestor.

/open

Open files from the latest agent interaction in Emacs buffers via emacsclient. Jumps to a specific line when relevant.

/select

Open a file in Emacs and select the region most relevant to the current discussion. Ready to act on immediately: narrow, copy, refactor, etc.

/highlight

Highlight relevant regions in a file in Emacs with a temporary read-only minor mode. Press q to exit and remove highlights.

/describe

Look up Emacs documentation using the appropriate mechanism: describe-function, describe-variable, describe-key, describe-symbol, apropos, apropos-documentation, info, or shortdoc.

/gnuplot

Plot data from the current context using gnuplot. Queries the Emacs foreground color and generates a transparent PNG that renders inline.

/plantuml

Create diagrams from the current context using PlantUML. Applies the Emacs foreground color via skinparam for readable text on your Emacs background.

/d2

Create diagrams from the current context using D2. Uses the dark theme with the Emacs foreground color applied to nodes and edges.

/mermaid

Create diagrams from the current context using Mermaid. Applies the Emacs foreground color via theme variable overrides for readable text on your Emacs background.

emacsclient (auto)

Always prefer emacsclient over emacs when the agent needs to interact with Emacs. This skill is not a slash command; it activates automatically.

file-links (auto)

Format file references as markdown links with GitHub-style #L line numbers (e.g., [file.el:42](path/to/file.el#L42)). Activates automatically.

Requirements

• Emacs running a server (M-x server-start or (server-start) in your init file)
• emacsclient available on $PATH
