AI Coding: GemBox skill

Skill for CLI coding agents (Copilot / Claude / Codex)

CLI coding agents such as GitHub Copilot CLI, Claude Code, and OpenAI Codex can write valid GemBox code when enabled with our gembox-skill. More details on the skills standard are available on the Agent Skills website.

Read our blog article for rationale, installation steps, and a Docker image for quick testing. If you already used agent skills, then you will be familiar with the steps below.

Skill installation steps

1. Download: gembox-skill.zip
2. Unzip and copy the entire gembox-skill/ folder to your agent skills install path (see “Coding agents paths” below).
3. Restart your coding agent and then type /skills list in the interactive mode to verify the skill is available.

Once installed, your coding agent will use gembox-skill automatically when generating GemBox code. You can invoke the skill manually with /gembox-skill (Copilot and Claude) or /skills gembox-skill (Codex).
