CKEditor skills

Official Agent Skills for working with CKEditor, designed to be portable across AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and any tool that supports the open skill format).

The first skill, ckeditor, takes a developer and their coding agent from "I want a rich-text editor" to a working, configured, correctly-licensed CKEditor 5 — picking an install method, wiring the editor (vanilla or a framework wrapper), configuring features, loading CSS, setting the license key, and unlocking premium features. It's an umbrella router: it detects the project's state and routes to the right path, in any JavaScript environment.

[!NOTE] Want a skill for something else with CKEditor? This repo is meant to grow beyond install + configure. If you'd like a skill for a specific feature, workflow, or integration, open an issue and tell us what you need — requests help us decide what to build next.

Install

skills.sh (any supported agent):

npx skills add ckeditor/skills

Claude Code plugin marketplace:

/plugin marketplace add ckeditor/skills
/plugin install ckeditor@ckeditor

Manual: copy skills/ckeditor/ into your agent's skills directory (e.g. .claude/skills/ckeditor/).

Once installed, the skill loads automatically when you ask your agent to install, set up, configure, or troubleshoot CKEditor.

The skill is version-agnostic by design: it carries durable, universal knowledge and points the agent at the live docs for anything version-specific.

Staying current

The skill works standalone, but is more effective with live docs access:

• Docs: https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/
• llms-full.txt (https://ckeditor.com/docs/llms-full.txt) — the guides as one fetchable text bundle (no API reference); and llms.txt (https://ckeditor.com/llms.txt) — a product overview (capabilities, lineup, pricing) with links.
• Kapa documentation MCP (optional): semantic search over the docs — setup in skills/ckeditor/references/documentation-access.md.

Feedback

Found wrong, stale, or missing guidance? Open an issue with the skill feedback template. Agents are encouraged to file these (with the user's awareness) when reality contradicts the skill.
