# Agent Skills

> Install Henry's skills in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other coding agents.

## Overview

Henry ships an open-source skills bundle,
[Henry-Social/skills](https://github.com/Henry-Social/skills), that teaches
AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and 30+ others) to build with —
and shop through — the Henry API. Install it once and your agent knows how to
integrate Henry into the app it's building, without pasting docs into the
prompt.

The bundle contains two skills:

* **`integrate`** — fires when you ask the agent to add commerce to your app.
  It teaches [`@henrylabs/sdk`](/v1/sdk/server/getting-started/quickstart)
  setup, product search, universal carts, hosted vs. headless checkout,
  async-job polling, webhooks, and go-live steps.
* **`shop`** — a live demo skill: ask for a product and the agent searches
  real merchants, builds a cart, and hands back a hosted checkout link.

## Prerequisites

* Node.js 18+ with `npx` on your PATH
* A Henry API key from the [Henry Dashboard](https://app.henrylabs.ai) —
  start with a sandbox key
* `HENRY_SDK_API_KEY` exported in the shell that launches your agent:

```sh theme={null}
export HENRY_SDK_API_KEY="your_api_key"
```

## Install

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Claude Code">
    Install the full plugin — the two skills plus the
    [Henry MCP server](/v1/sdk/server/mcp/mcp), wired up automatically. Run
    inside a Claude Code session:

    ```
    /plugin marketplace add Henry-Social/skills
    /plugin install henry@henrylabs
    ```

    The skills are namespaced under the plugin: `/henry:integrate` and
    `/henry:shop`. Updates ship automatically whenever the plugin repo
    changes.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Cursor, Codex & other agents">
    Any agent that supports the
    [Agent Skills standard](https://skills.sh/Henry-Social/skills) can
    install the bare skills from your terminal:

    ```sh theme={null}
    npx skills add Henry-Social/skills
    ```

    This copies the skills into your project. It does not configure the
    Henry MCP server — add it separately if you want live commerce tools
    (see [MCP Server](/v1/sdk/server/mcp/mcp) for per-client setup).
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Use it

Paste a prompt like one of these into your agent:

* "Help me integrate Henry into my project using the integrate skill."
* "Add cross-merchant product search and checkout to my app with Henry."
* In Claude Code, try the demo directly:
  `/henry:shop white sneakers under $100`

Invoke the `integrate` skill whenever you're wiring Henry features — product
discovery, carts, checkout, order tracking — into a backend or full-stack
app.

<Note>
  Building with an in-browser tool like Lovable or v0? Install the skill in a
  terminal agent alongside it: the terminal agent handles the Henry API
  integration while the browser tool manages the UI.
