**TL;DR**  
We are moving beyond static documentation. _IMG.LY Agent Skills_ is a specialized intelligence layer that transforms AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) into CE.SDK implementation experts. Instead of mapping APIs manually, you now inject our full SDK expertise directly into your IDE and coding agent.

## The "Quick Start" Paradox

In our recent analysis of client integrations, a consistent pattern emerged: even with a high-performance SDK, the "Time to First Edit" is often delayed by research. Developers spend a significant portion of their initial integration time context-switching between their IDE and documentation, manually mapping complex API hierarchies to their specific framework.

We figured: You don't just need better documentation; you need an **expert partner** who is already inside your codebase.

## The Solution: IMG.LY Agent Skills for Web

We are moving beyond static documentation. Today, we are launching **IMG.LY Agent Skills**, a specialized intelligence layer that transforms AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini into CE.SDK implementation experts.

Instead of searching for answers, you now give your agent our complete SDK knowledge with a single command.

## How It Works: Your Autonomous Implementation Partner

By injecting versioned, live documentation and framework-specific starter kits directly into your agent's context window, we’ve created three adaptive paths to launch:

### 1\. The Explain Path

Architecture is complex. The Explain Skill acts as a digital implementation partner that adapts to you. It can provide a technical deep-dive on the export pipeline for a Senior Dev or a high-level summary for a Product Manager, in any language and at any level of detail.

### **2\. The Build Path**

Command your agent to "Add a photo editor to my React app." The agent autonomously detects your environment, pulls the correct starter kit, and handles the boilerplate. It doesn't just show you code; it builds the foundation for you.

### **3\. The Docs Path**

Stop the tab-switching. Your agent retrieves versioned API references offline, keeping your focus entirely within the terminal or IDE.

## The Shift to Autonomous Engineering

This release marks a strategic shift for IMG.LY. We believe the next era of software development isn't about "better documentation," but about **Portable Expertise**.

By providing that AI with a "skill" rather than a manual, we are empowering teams to move from a multi-month build cycle to a 30-second scaffold.

## Supported Frameworks

The initial Web release supports 10 frameworks out of the box:  
**React · Vue.js · Svelte · Angular · Next.js · Nuxt.js · SvelteKit · Electron · Node.js · Vanilla JS**

## Get Started

Run the command:

```bash
npx skills add imgly/agent-skills
```

_For example_, **Claude Code** users, can run:

```bash
claude plugin marketplace add imgly/agent-skills

claude plugin install cesdk@imgly
```
