The ax skills commands install and remove Arize context skills for AI coding agents. Skills are Markdown files downloaded from Arize-ai/arize-skills that teach agents how to use Arize APIs. Supported agents: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf.

ax skills install

Download skills from GitHub and install them into each agent’s skills directory. Runs interactively by default, with detected agents pre-selected.
ax skills install [--agent <slug>] [--global] [--project-dir <path>] [--yes] [--force]
OptionDescription
--agent, -aAgent to install for. Can be repeated. Valid values: claude-code, cursor, codex, windsurf. Required when using --yes.
--global, -gInstall globally (~/.claude/skills/, ~/.cursor/skills/, etc.) instead of the current project
--project-dir, -dProject directory to install into (default: current working directory)
--yes, -ySkip confirmations. Requires --agent.
--force, -fOverwrite existing skills without prompting
By default skills are installed into the current project directory. Use --global to install to your home directory so skills are available in all projects. If a skill already exists and neither --force nor --yes is set, you are prompted to overwrite it. With --yes (but not --force), existing skills are skipped silently. Examples:
# Interactive — detects installed agents, prompts for skill selection
ax skills install

# Install for Claude Code only, interactive skill selection
ax skills install --agent claude-code

# Install for Claude Code and Cursor, skip all prompts, overwrite existing
ax skills install --agent claude-code --agent cursor --yes --force

# Install globally
ax skills install --global --agent claude-code --yes

ax skills clear

Remove Arize skills installed by ax skills install. Only removes skill directories whose names start with arize-; user-created skills are not affected.
ax skills clear [--agent <slug>] [--global] [--project-dir <path>] [--yes]
OptionDescription
--agent, -aAgent to clear skills for. Can be repeated. Valid values: claude-code, cursor, codex, windsurf. If omitted, all known agents are scanned.
--global, -gClear from the global install location (~/.claude/skills/, etc.)
--project-dir, -dProject directory to clear from (default: current working directory)
--yes, -ySkip the confirmation prompt
Examples:
# Interactive — shows what will be removed and prompts for confirmation
ax skills clear

# Clear only Claude Code skills from the current project
ax skills clear --agent claude-code

# Clear globally without prompting
ax skills clear --global --yes
