The CE.SDK plugin is the one-command way to give your AI coding agent everything it needs to build with CreativeEditor SDK: bundled documentation skills, guided code generation, and an autonomous project scaffolder — installed together as a single package.
What’s in the Plugin#
A plugin is the distribution unit that bundles several agent capabilities behind one install. Depending on the agent, a plugin can package any combination of:
- Skills — procedural knowledge and reference your agent loads on demand to work accurately
- Slash commands — actions you invoke directly, like
/cesdk:build - Subagents — specialized agents with their own tools and persona for a focused task
- MCP servers — live connections to external tools and data
- Hooks — handlers that run at lifecycle points, such as before or after a tool call
The CE.SDK plugin packages documentation skills, two workflow skills, and an autonomous builder agent:
| Capability | What it gives your agent |
|---|---|
| Documentation skills | The complete CE.SDK guides and API reference for each Web framework, bundled locally — no external calls |
| Build skill | Guided code generation and project setup (/cesdk:build) |
| Explain skill | Concept and architecture walkthroughs (/cesdk:explain) |
| Builder agent | Autonomous scaffolding that detects your framework and implements a working CE.SDK project end to end |
For the full skill list, see Agent Skills. For real-time documentation search, connect the MCP Server.
Install#
Claude Code#
Add the marketplace once, then install the plugin:
# Add the marketplace (one-time setup)claude plugin marketplace add imgly/agent-skills
# Install the pluginclaude plugin install cesdk@imglyVercel Skills CLI (Codex, Cursor, and more)#
The Claude Code commands above install the full plugin — documentation and workflow skills plus the builder agent — through the Claude plugin marketplace. Other agents don’t have a plugin system, but they do support skills, the portable core of the plugin. Install those across OpenAI Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, and 70+ more with the Vercel Skills CLI, picking your agent with -a:
# OpenAI Codexnpx skills add imgly/agent-skills -a codex
# Claude Codenpx skills add imgly/agent-skills -a claude-code
# Other agents — e.g. Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurfnpx skills add imgly/agent-skills -a cursor
# List available skills firstnpx skills add imgly/agent-skills --listThe CLI installs the skills only — not the Claude-specific builder agent — into a project-local directory (Codex resolves them from .agents/skills/); pass -g to install globally instead.
Manual Copy#
For any skills-compatible agent, copy skill folders directly from the GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/imgly/agent-skills.gitcp -r agent-skills/plugins/cesdk/skills/docs-react .claude/skills/cesdk-docs-reactVerify#
Once installed, invoke a skill with a slash command to confirm the plugin is active:
/cesdk:build create a photo editor with filters/cesdk:docs-react configuration/cesdk:explain how the block hierarchy worksNext Steps#
- Connect the MCP Server for always-current documentation search.
- Browse the individual Agent Skills.
