A collection of skills for GenLayer intelligent contract development, compatible with any AI assistant — Antigravity, Claude, Windsurf, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and others.

How to Use

No installation required. Simply point your AI assistant at the relevant SKILL.md file and ask it to follow the instructions.

With Antigravity / Claude Code (via @-mention or context)

@skills/write-contract/SKILL.md  Help me write a new storage contract
@skills/genvm-lint/SKILL.md      Lint my contract

With Windsurf / Cursor (add to context)

Open the relevant SKILL.md in your editor and include it in your AI chat context.

With any AI assistant (manual)

Copy the contents of the relevant SKILL.md into your prompt, or ask your AI to read the file first.

Available Skills

| Skill | Description | |-------|-------------| | write-contract | Write GenLayer intelligent contracts following best practices | | genvm-lint | Validate contracts with the GenVM linter | | direct-tests | Write and run fast in-memory direct mode tests | | integration-tests | Write and run integration tests against GenLayer environments | | commit | Git commit with conventional commit message generation |

Skill Format

Each skill follows a consistent structure:

• SKILL.md — Human-readable instructions + AI procedure guide (entry point)
• skill.yaml (complex skills only) — Machine-readable procedure definition
• sharp-edges.yaml (complex skills only) — Known pitfalls and how to avoid them
• collaboration.yaml (complex skills only) — Dependencies and skill composition

Difference from .claude/skills/

This skills/ folder is AI-agnostic — it has no Claude Code-specific hooks, no allowed-tools frontmatter, and no plugin installation needed. Any AI assistant can consume these skills by simply reading the SKILL.md files.

| | .claude/skills/ | skills/ (this folder) | |---|---|---| | Target | Claude Code only | Any AI assistant | | Hooks | Claude Code Stop hooks | None | | Installation | /plugin install | Just read the file | | Frontmatter | allowed-tools, hooks | Minimal, optional |
