What a skill is

A skill is a file you drop into a project to teach a coding agent — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and others — how to use Runboard well. It covers the MCP setup, the workspace concepts, the available tools, and how to use them. You download it from Settings → Skills and commit it into your repository.

Note

The tool list inside each file stays in sync with the MCP tools your workspace exposes, so the guidance reflects what your agents can actually do.

Two files to choose from

Agent skill — SKILL.md
A portable skill file for agents that support skills, including Claude Code and Codex. Install it in the skill directory your agent expects so the guidance loads only for Runboard-related work.
Project instructions — AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md
Root-of-repository guidance for any agent that reads persistent project instructions. Place it at your repository root under the filename your agent expects.

Installing one

  1. 1Connect the MCP server — register an agent and generate its key (see MCP)
  2. 2Add the file — download the artifact and commit it at the path shown on its card
  3. 3Use it — ask your agent in plain language; it now knows how to find, create, and update work in Runboard
